The grand j ry respect fully ! make the following report. We have investigated and passed upon nil hills of Indictments submitted to us and have reported our find ing thereon to the court. We have l?v a committee visited the poor house and find it lu-atlv and well kept. The inmates are apparently well eared for. We en!I attention to the rendition of the eonrt house. The plastering overhead i:i the Western corner of the court room leys fallen and prevents an unsightly appcaranc . We notice that the plastering ovcrhen 1 has fall n in other places and has hecu replaced. We think it would he well to I the plastering knocked oil uiut [ have same replaced by ceiling. It is now really in a dangerous condition. The jail is well kept and is in fairly good condition, hut we recommend that some different arrangement be made for supplying heat to the jail without endangering the building. The stove now in the jnil is ju?t a hove the wooden stairway connecting the first floo?* with the second floor where the Prisoners are confined. In case of tiro breaking out the stair way ! would moat certainly catch and the only communication to second story would l>e cut off. An Iron . stairway in place of the present one would >>? better. We commend the County Board of Commissioners for the attention they are giving the public nmd? of the county. We notice that wheie the chain gang has | l>ecn the public roads are improv-1 ad. We hope the convicts will! ini sent to every portion of the rounty as soon as practicable. We ; tin<l the convicts are well and hu-, ntanely treated.
