Marion Ky June 9th 1861 Beriah Magoffin Governor of Ky Frankfort Kentucky Dear sir

At the last Term of the Crittenden Circuit Court a Judgement was Rendered by said court against D A Butler for $500 and against J S Lowery for the sum of $500 and against W B Travis for the sum of $250. I think that said Judgements are Exorbitant and that executive interferance would meet the approbation of the Citizens of this County I have known the defendants for many years and have found them to be law abiding men and the offence of which they were charged was for assault and Battery.

I am Yours truly Berry. S. Young
