Richard Yates to W. W. Orme

March 4th [186]2

Hon. W.W. Orme

Dear Sir:

Upon a careful examination of the Petition therefor, I think I ought not to issue pardon to D. Jones, without the recommendation of the Judge who tried him, of the Prosecuting Attorney; and also certificate of the Warden of the Penitentiary, of good conduct.

Yours very Respy.

Richd Yates

Gov.
