a committee to examine the Jail of said
county, beg leave to report that they have
examined the same, and find it in a very

feel it to be their imperative duty to call
the attention of this board to a fragrant
evil growing out Of the present improper
arrangement of the cells, there being no
separate apartment for females, two females
are now confined therein, with nine other
male prisoners, who are joint tenants in
common of the whole Jail, ,and seem to have
every facility for engaging in vices alike
disreputabIe to themselves and the county.
That the health and comfort Of every IN
mate of the Jail as well as of the whole
court house requires that suitable vault
and sewer be speedily constructed, into
which the filth of the Jail may be deposited.
Your committee therefore recommend
that a hall, vault and sewer be constructed
and attached to the south end of said Jail
in accordance with plan hereto annexed,
under the direction of a committee of three,
to be appointed by the chairman of the
board, who shall have the power to make
slight variations Of the plan if they deem It
| best to do so, and that the Sheriff of Man
itowoc county be instructed to keep the fe
male prisoners in an apartment separate
from the males All of which is respect
fully submittod. Signed by j. ID. Mark
ham and Louis Faulhaber, Committee.
