The Undersigned Jurymen who sat in the Case of the commonwealth against Jacob Hauserman convicted of larceny at the May term of the Jefferson Criminal Court for Kentucky, suggest to His Excellency Governor Magoffin the propriety of a parden and ask Executive Clemency in behalf of an old man unacquainted with our language and our customs and who may have fallen into wrong more through ignorance than crime We are informed that ^Seven^ six of the Jury have already signed Hauserman's petition for a pardon and we cheerfully add our names in the cause of mercy. June 11, 1862.
