WatU, Presiding Jodie: Sir: The Grand Jury for Abbeville County, In IU final presentment of Heplember .10, lati. makes certain referenees to matters touching my duties as Hupervlsor of said County, to wblch, for tbe further Information of the Court, I would respectfully ia?k permission to reply. Tbe presentment matos "that tbe County convict (uard* are In tbe bitbll of rldlug the County mules whm vial ting llielr homes,'' I and recouuneoda-tbat the mulea be allowed lo real wbeo out at work." Tbe presentment an to tbla matter we pre. iume was suggested i?y the fad tbflt. on Saturday afternoon, Mept. '.O b, one of tbe guard* drove*county mole to hia borne, and that during the night, the mule died, the guard via tea, with colic. I have noi objected to tbe gnaida visiting tbelr borne* occasionally, and aa they are poor men, worklngoo mestjir salaries, unable to hire conveyances, 1 have permitted tbem tbe use ol the County mules for this purpose occasionally. Tbe custom la to umi tbe mu!e? ordiuarily employed In wagoning and such lighter work, and I have always cautioned them whether in driving or at work, to treat them with proper care. Aa at< evidence that this Injunction la not commonly disobeyed, tbe director* of tbe suite fenniienuary recently stated -that we bud tbe beat males id Ibe hUte." I feel tbat It la my duty to Investigate tbl? rase, and if tbe mule died from over driving, to reprimand or discharge tbe guard, but I can not tblnk tbat tbla Incident should entirely deprive tbe guards ol moderate and proper use of the mole*, for tbe above elated purposes. In tbe Orand Jury's presentment, June term, 1902, tbey made reference to tbe fact tbat a certain blind white woman, an Inmate >*?*" * hiiH crlvan hlrlh (O fttl llio* gltlmatecblld, alleging tbat one of ttie County'* employees was tbe father. I understood 1 then, no they slated In their recent presentment, tbat their reference was to Mr. Ueo WCalvert. We oonfess tbat tbla matter In shameful, and If It la cbargable to Mr. Calvert be abould be punlabed therefor. Ho far aa I am InformMl, tbere la no evldunce of hi* guilt, except the unsupported statement of tbe mother of tbe child, and aa ber pa*t oondnct baa been abim? ful, having previously given blrlb to two Illegitimate children, one of them a negro, I tbongbt It lnsufflot#nt evidence on which to discharge a man whose reputation bas been good, and whose service* to tbe County have beeu moat faithful and economical. Otber recommendations of tbe Grand Jury, t previous Courts, were to tbe effect: That ] procure tent fllea for tbe protection of the County mulea, and that i employ a night guard for tbe County convicts. To tbe first of these. I stated to tbe committee making the reootftmendation, that I would procure the tent flies before the cold weather set to, which I expect to do. I confess my non-compliance with tbe sec ond recommendation, not out of any spirit of dlareapect to the Court or Urand Jury, bat becauae I (elt that a reoommendatlou not being peremptory, left me aome dlacretlon for the exerclae of my Judgment and experience.
