To his Excelency Jas F Robinson Gov of Ky. Dear sir

As regards the petition of the members of the Bar. of the Union Circuit Court praying the release of the forfuture of recognisance of a bond of Saml C. Hughes to the Commonwealth of Ky. I will say that I saw the blow struck and that it was a slight one on the shoulder. inflicting no injury on the person of Hon R K Williams,, I heard Judge W. say that he was axious to get the said Hughes released from said forfeiture. At the time the blow was struck Mr Hughes was much entoxicated.
