Gov Wm Spry Salt Lake City Utah

Dear Sir: I write this to ask you to use your influence in helping one by name Joe Hill in getting a new trial The man that was sentenced to be shot on Sept 4th 1914 as I consider the evidence on which he was convicted to weak

Yours Truly Fred G. Pfister 208 S Bdway

Gov Spry:- Dear Sir:-

I appeal to your better nature to think of the injustice you are doing for Joe Hill and to give him a new trial. There have been more than one innocent man hung or shot just by the flimsy evidence that you have got against him. I hope you think of this matter before Sept 4th and

will have a new trial. I am personly acquainted with Joe Hill and I do not think him guilty.

I trust this letter will not be in vain, I am,

Sincerely Yours, Katie Phor

Governor Wm spry, Salt Lake city Utah

Dear Sir:

As an american citizen I ask you to prevent the execution of Joe Hill on such flimsy drummed up evidence.

I am not a member of the I.W.W., but I detest such injustice as is being handed to them. As a member of the working class I protest

I have followed up the Joe Hill case and from the evidence brought forth by the two sides I believe him innocent of the crime charged and protest against his Execution.
