To the Hon. Govenor of the State of Utah

Dear Sir: --
We the undersigned citizens
of Sioux City, Iowa, petition your Hon. to
give the case of Joe Hill your immediate
consideration.
We are firmly convinced that
Joe Hill's conviction is based purely upon
prejudise against him on account of his
affiliations, the evidence against him being
of the flimsiest circumstantial kind.
On view of the facts we ask
your Hon. to extend to Joe Hill a pardon,
or grant a stay of execution until such
time as a Writ of Errors can be registered
or his case brought before the Supreme
Court of the United States, as we believe
that a new trial before unprejudised
men will mean his acquital.
