La Grange Mch 8/62 Govr Magoffin Dr Sir,

I enclose a petition in behalf of two young men charged with gaming, the Signers are all respectable citizens of this county. I hope you will remit the fines as they are both clever young men and the amt., while small, is more than they are able to pay -- You would do me a favor by doing So.

Yours truly Jas W. Brannon
