Dr Sir

Mr. R S Thomas of this county will send you a petition praying the remission of a fine against him as security for Our George Dobson. If you can do so I would be hope that you will remit or respite the fine for I know myself that his case is one in which the executive clemency can be very properly excused. His property is now levied on and will be sold soon unless he can get the fine remitted
