duty, they visited the County Jail, and
through the courtesy of Mr.. J. P. Foster,
the keeper, and his efficient assistants,
Mr.. John Msgeyepg and others, were
shown through ell Of the various depart
ments, We found ths game sn admira-
his building, well ventilated, and sup
nlie,! With all ths conveniences necessary
for the health and comfort OF its inmates.
We also found the same eiesn and en-
tirely free from any offensive smell,
and. in our opinion, well kept. The
boarding department under the super
vision of Major Morton is we'll con-
duoted, and from investigation We are
led To believe the prisoners have plen-
tifuI supply OF wholesome food. The
prison books show, 6fty white prisoners
and one hundred and twelve colored."
