To His Excellency James F. Robinson Governor of Kentucky

We certify that William White who was recently convicted in the Jefferson Circuit Court for Malicious Stabbing was in our employ at the Louisville Paper Mill for Fifteen Years, and during all that time he was strictly attentive to his duties, peaceable, quiet, and orderly; in a word he is a man of Exemplary Character.

We earnestly beg your Excellency to exercise your constitutional perogative & grant a pardon to William White

Respectfully A. V. DuPont & Co

We the undersigned Citizens of Louisville Kentucky do earnestly unite in the prayer for a pardon for Wm White

Geo. D. Prentice
