To His Eccellency Beriah McGoffin

Your Petitioner Edward B Long would respectfully state that he has been fined in the City Court for the City of Lexington in the sum of Five Hundered Dollars for the alledged offence of dealing faro. That the indictment was brought on malicious information, he having never committed the offence charged. That he rented rooms to other parties who were accused of gambling, but at the time it was not in his knowledge and never with his consent and for this or someother equally unjustifiable and unfounded reason he was indicted and fined as above mentioned. He states that he has paid all the costs, fees, &c in the case and now respictfully prays that the remainder of said fine shall be remitted. And he will ever pray &c

The undersigned earnestly pray the Clemency of His Eccellency in favor of the above petitioner
