To the Honourable Charles Doyne Esq

and the Grand Jury of Carlow

We the undersigned do most respectfully appeal to your Honour and to the Honourable Members of the Grand Jury – hoping that they would quash the proceedings in the case of Murphy verses Murphy. We are all near relatives & although in our passion we did violate the Law and were guilty of illegal conduct in a more or less degree – yet we do hope that if you, Honourable Gentlemen, would extend mercy to us, our future good conduct will be a proof of the sincerity of our sorrow for what is past & we, as in duty bound, will ever pray.
