Two years ago the Grand Jury t ule strong presentments to the unty Commissioners for improve- ( ;nts, especially demanding that nitary conveniences be installed, i th the necessary water and sewer- i e connections. At the following term of court the a licitor, under direction of the pre- 1 ling judge, had served on the CounSupervisor a rule to show cause ^ ly he had not carried out the v rand Jury's recommendations. ( At the next term of court the survisor made return of the rule, exaining that he had no funds with ( tiich to make the needed improve- ( ents; that as soon as the Delegation ' the General Assembly should prode the funds he would proceed with i e work. On this occasion Judge Ed- j iI'll Mc Ivor made the statement in ( ion court that the Chesterfield | >urt House was a menace to health' ] id a disgrace to civilization; that ( was ashamed to have judges and > sitors from out of the County come ( re on that account. ( It was at this point that Hon. G. K. i mey announced that the improveents had not been made, because | e delegation had under considera>n plans for either erecting a now lilding or making substantial and ' >ting improvements on the old one. ' ith ideas of this kind, Mr. Laney 1 id, it would not lie wise to spend on 1 e small immediate needs when ev- 1 ything would go for nothing when * e new building should be put up or ' e old one rebuilt. The County Commissiosers, taking ? i\ I,aney at his word, have engaged ? e services of Architect C. C. Wilson Columbia, who has furnished ins, specifications and drawings r the complete remodeling of the j i building into a thoroughly niodn and adequate Court House. The plans include the enlargement tin i uiiiii. g by adding a two-stowing at the rear of the West side, t ults for the safe keeping of the t erk's, Auditor's and other valuable t pels that are now absolutely with- , t file protection. 'I he installation!, sanitary closets and retiring rooms '/ r both sexes with tin* necessary wat- | j, works and sewer connections and . <tcam heating plant are among oth- ., improvements Included in Mr. Wil- j it's specifications. The (irand Jury room will be of j flieient size to allow for the proper . nduei of thai body's business and J j II fie located on thi* second floor. !i Kor linaiicing this improvement v 0 plans ari- available, Ootids and dit taxation. It is tbohght not necesry to issue bonds, as a few mills udd to the tax rate would pay the . 1 in a few years.
