Lebanon Feby 28th 1861 His Excellency Hon Beriah Magoffin

Sir. Mrs Tharp whose petition goes with this is personally known to us. She is no doubt as poor and needy as her Petition states her to be -- If her property now were sold it would bring little or nothing owing to the Extreme pressure in money affairs= we hope you will give her Petition as kind a consideration as may be consistent with your official duties --

verry truly yours John Shuck Thos. C. Woods.
