Report of Grand Jury
The report of the grand Jury signed
by Dewey J. Creed as the new foreman.
was as follows:
"We have diligently investigatedthe
various departments and affairs of
Kershaw county and first and foremost
we wish to commend the sheriff, his
deputy and the four rural policemen
for their diligence in enforcing the
laws in the county and we requost
the county delegation not to make
any changes at this time in the law
enforcement " departments of the
county.
"We also wish to commend our
clerk of court, who after an extended
illness and who. in spite of a suggestion
by your Honor that he permit
himself further time to recuperate by
turning his duties over to his deputy,
has chosen rather to remain at his
-post throughout the present term of
the court of general sessions.
"We further commend all the other
county officers and the solicitor for
the fine and efficient discharge of
their official duties. Also wish to
commend those county officers who
made our fine new jail a reality, and
having this splendid building we desire
at the outset to urge those in
I charge of it to see that it is kept
I clean and In good condition.
I "We wish to suggest to the sheriff
that he and his deputies do all within
their power to completely eliminate'
the straying of domestic animals upon
the highway and county roads. We
further suggest that the road and
bridges in Flat Rock township loading
from Flint Hill church to the
Flat Rock road which has been under
construction for several years, toe
completed as soon as possible. We
also suggest the improvements of the
Knights Hill road beyond the race
tracks as far as the populous portion
thereof extends. 1
"We would like to call to the atten-i
Hon of the, court that Sam Hugging of i
Wateree township, a defendant in one
of the criminal cases now pending in
the general sessions court, made a remark
to one of the grand Jurors to the
effect that "if he did not help him
out It would not be good for him." I

Sheriff's Forces Make Report
Sheriff J. H. McLeod, In making a
report on the activities of his office
to the grand Jury, covering a period
beginning January 1, 1940, and ending
December 31, 1940, which Includes the
work of his deputy and four rural policemen,
says:
"During the period, nineteen illicit
whiskey stills were captured and destroyed,
and eighty-five hundred gallons
of mash and sixty-five gallons of
corn whiskey were seized and destroyed.
There were twenty-one arrests
for liquor law violations and
seven hundred and forty-seven arrests
under other charges. The county has
been diligently covered by the sheriff's
office and the county rural police
force has, I believe, been most efficient
In keeping down law violations,
and all public meetings have been policed.
There was about $4,500 collected
in fines during 1940.
"I take this opportunity to commend
the#rural police officers of Kershaw
county for their fidelity and zeal
in the discharge of their duties. Not
only have they beon active and valI
uable in apprehending law violators.
| but by their activities they have most:
assuredly deterred others from violating
the law.
"We suggest to the county officials
that the road from Liberty Hill out to
Red Hill toy W. Z. Hilton toe repaired
so that same can be made passable.
"We also suggest that the bridge
over Beaver Creek be repaired on the
county road through Brewer pla^e." I
