Alderson, Pa., Sept. 9th, 1915

Hon. William Spry,
Governor of Utah,
Dear Sir:

From what I learn, the
man called Joe Hill who
is sentenced to die for murder
on Oct. 1st in your state is
innocent of the crime for which
he is convicted. It would
[redeemed?] to your credit, I believe,
if you should commute his
sentence.

Yours truly,

L. B. Avery
