i. REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY.
To he Hon. 4. Jordan and his associates Of n
Courts Of N0rth"mbsrtamd County:
The Grand Jurors having passed upon all bill
= laid before them by the District Attorney, and mad
t the necessary examinations of the public building
n &c, do state that we have made thorough exam,
nation of the county buildings. We find it necessar
that there should be dozen chairs and sette
q for the witness room and also that the Grand Jur
j. room wants some plastering done, and window PAM
# inserted. The rain evidently comes through Il
ceiling in the vaults of the Registers and Prothon
u tarys Offices. We recommend the hanging of Gu
tains in front of the bonds and papers to keep the
!, free from dirt and dust. The privy at the Cou
House should be Immediately cleaned. Also, tn
water closets be erected Immediately The la
plasterng or hard finish the inside of the ia
yard wall we highly approve of and think it qui
an addition to the safe keeping and security Of Il
% prisoners.
