0,1 - ; - == Report on the Sixth Inspection of the Dillon County Chain Gang Made March 24, 19120, by Asst. Secretary Brearley. | After a period of having no chain ^ gang Dillon county has organized one consisting of trusties. At the time of > this visit the gang was encamped on the jail grounds and was making use of the unsatisfactory jail sewerage system. If the jail itself were in, good condition this would be an ideal arangement, but unfortunately the gang is often encamped other places. In this case there are absolutely no i'.* sanitary precautions taken to protect! I the health from improper sewerage ) v ~ disposal. This should be remedied byj digging a soil pit and keeping it in | good condition. , A better tent is needed for t he men, the present one leaks badly. The camp grounds could be Improved. by a little cleaning up, especially by the removal of the large supply of, empty tin cans that are very liable, to breed flies and mosquitoes. The foreman should also forbid the prisoners to initiate an<i beat one another; this is certain to result in trouble if it is continued. . Foreman Mclnness is to be commended for his methods of discipline.' ^ He, like most of the other food fore-, men of the State, finds it possible to t get proper behavior without resort- ( lng to whipping. 4 , STATE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE. i G.

Croft Williams, Secretary. Report of the Sixth Inspection of the | Dillon County Jail Made March 24, 1920, by Asst. Secretary Brearley. At the time of this visit the Dillon * * *? ? ?A^r\lneohlo County jau was in a uv*riv. condition, the result of defective plumbing. The water conections were in such bad shape that the lower floor of the jail had recently been covered with several inches of water. The jailer's family informed the visitor that at this time a negro convict died in the jail of influenza and that the water under his cot was over an inch deep the very night of his death, j The shower baths were unusuable because of the broken pipes. Conse-j quently two prisoners had- been con-1 fined from January 1st. to March 24 without having a bath. This almost I unbelievable state of affairs is duel solely to the neglect of the county authorities to have the necessary repairs made. Jailer McRacken is doing his best to make conditions in the jail livable; he had mopped up the water off the floor and" had placed tubs under the worst leaks. Except for plumbing the jail is in a satisfactory state. The building is one of the better pqes of South Carolina and the jailer seems interested in his work and desirous of making what improvements he can. . STATE BOARD OF PtfBLIC. WELFARE G.
