To His Excellency, the
Governor of the State of Utah:

We, the undersigned Americans,
believing that every one accused of
crime (especially the accused of a crim
the penalty for which involes life or
liberty) should have every opportun-
ity to establish his innocence fy a fair
and impartial trial at law, and
believing that Joe Hillstrom now
under sentence of death in the State
of Utah, has been denied such
fair and impartial trial, earnestly
urge that you use your great
official power to obtain for the said
Joe Hillstrom a new trial and
a square deal; and thus overthrow
his unamerican verdict and
remove the stain of injustice to a
working man from the fair name
of the great state of Utah.
