The honorable The Judges of the court
4 of quarter sessions of the peace in and
for The county OF Columbia.
The undersigned Grand Inquest of The
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania inquiring
for the body OF the county OF Columbia, Re-
spectuHy Report.
That they have pursuant 10 their required
dulles calmly and deliberately, investigated
all bills OF Indictment presented for their con-
sideration al this term, and have passed up
on Them accordingly. They have also made
a thorough examinations of the Court house
JaA, aud all other public buildings, and find
them generally in good repair.
1t is within the know ledge of the Inquest
that The public road Leading along Fishing
creek above 0rangeville is much injured and
ob-lrucied by the creek a, this present sea-
son. But in our judgment, the difficulty will
be obyialed whenever The bridge new in
contemplation shall be built over Fishing
creek a short distance above where the road
is now injured by the wafer.
The violations Of law in this community,
are not many, nor are the few. crimes o! a
high nature. Il is a cause Of tongfaislaion
that our la5ors can be short, and, that no Sc
rious reproaches attach 10 our community.
The condition of public morals we believe
TO be about as good as the ~fraiities OF hu an
nature allow 10 be expecied-while the boun-
ties OF Providence and The blessings Of free
Institutions still continue to fll our land.
All of which is respectfully submitted this
seventh day of February A. D. 1855.
