Mr. H.L. Jones,
Alderson, Pa.

Dear Sir:-

Your communication, written on behalf
of Joseph Hillstrom, has been by the Governor,
filed with the State Board of Pardons,
which board, under the laws of Utah, acts upon
the applications for pardon and commutation.
In order that you may be correctly
informed as to the facts entering into the
appeal of this case to the Supreme Court of
Utah, I am enclosing a copy of the decision of
the court for your perusal.

Very repectfully,
Secretary to Governor.
