We would say that Mr. Malone, is a highly respected, moral & upright citizen, and that we are satisfied he violated the law in this particular instance through misunderstanding, because a citizen of then State & was ignorant of the statute or the subject of selling liquor to students, believes ^we are satisfied from retiable authorizing that ^the [[Jurys|Jury]] new to whom is was sold were only occasionally; students as the Time. We think this is a case that would call for the interponion of your Excellancy’s clemency, and we cherefers pray Your Excellency to remit said fines of $50.00 in cash of said cases.
