The Prayer of your Humble petitioners
showeth that they Labour under many inconveniences by not having
their County (to Wit Jackson) reduced to its Constitutional limits
and their seat of Justice permanently fixed, relying on your clemency
we hope your Honorable body will pass a Law to that affect and fix
our seat of Justice at Fort Blount. And your Petitioners in duty
bound will ever pray on. Jackson County, 8th July 1806. unreadable Hamilton Johnson Richd? Henry Jones Jno. Allison David Karbet (?)
