						To the Honourable Charles

		and the Grand Jury of Carlow
						We the undersigned do most 
					respectfully appeal to your Honour and to the Honourable 
					Members of the Grand Jury – hoping that they would quash the 
					proceedings in the case of Murphy verses Murphy. We are all 
					near relatives & although in our passion we did violate the 
					Law and were guilty of illegal conduct in a more or less 
					degree – yet we do hope that if you, Honourable Gentlemen, 
					would extend mercy to us, our future good conduct will be a 
					proof of the sincerity of our sorrow for what is past & we, 
					as in duty bound, will ever pray.
