We the Citizens of Green County, and acquaintances of William Wallace & Thomas Skaggs most respectfully Join in and Concur with said Wallace in his petition to the Governor of Kentucky Beriah Magoffin for a remittance of the forfeited Recognisace bond given by Wallace as Security for the appearance of said Skaggs in the Green Circuit Court

We are Satisfied that Wallace. as a mere act of kindness and out of his good nature became bound as such security and altho the forfeiture of $350 in ordinary times is not to great or heavy. Yet under Existing Circumstances. if the amt is now coerced by law it will take from the family of Wallace the means that his family cannot Spare and for which they must suffer. we therefore pray your Excellency to remit said forfeiture & release this poor man and worthy citizen from the payment of said fine and for which your Excellency will ever have our thanks
