Although undated,
this petition was presented to the Tennessee Legislature in 1815 and
originated in Campbell County in one of the many disputes about county
boundaries and the location of county seats.
The spelling of the original petition
has been preserved as closely as possible.
"

have been informed that there is or will be a petition from the
inhabitants of the south Eastern part of our County soliciting removal of
our present Seat of Justice ____ Hold of a Contra opinion begs to present
