Since I arrived here a highly respectable and humanly Signed petition was entrusted to me paying your Excelency. to remit Two fines imposed by the Fleming circuit Court of 60$ each one on Dianna. Pitts, a poor widow. and one one Wesley Berry. Mr Berry and Mrs Pitt. resided together and were indicted together. and each fined it was my clear to me that they were unproperly find. and the Jury was induced by a veryShe ask. The parties are poor, and I Surely Trust that your Excellency will remit there fines. I feel most embarassed at having tossed the petition amidst the confusion & business of the Senate. May I assure your Excellency that I Surely Trust that it is entirely proper to remit the fines aforesaid

Yours Truly L W Audrey
