Who, when they came to Caesarea
The seventy horsemen:

and delivered the epistle to the governor;

Acts 23:33 In-Context

31 So the soldiers did what they were told and took Paul and brought him to the city of Antipatris that night.
32 The next day the horsemen went with Paul to Caesarea, but the other soldiers went back to the army building in Jerusalem.
33 When the horsemen came to Caesarea and gave the letter to the governor, they turned Paul over to him.
34 The governor read the letter and asked Paul, "What area are you from?" When he learned that Paul was from Cilicia,
35 he said, "I will hear your case when those who are against you come here, too." Then the governor gave orders for Paul to be kept under guard in Herod's palace.
