4sT ohANhbbohS SOUSTl.
TO the Hon. R. II. Carpenter, Presiding
Judge, First Circuit:
The Grand Inquest for said County
of the january Term, 1870, beg leave To
submit to yonr Ionor's consideration the
following present hcnt:
We have visited all tho public Offices
nnc buildings within said county and
upon careful examination thereof arc
prepared 10 report to your Honor that
their respective conditions reflects much
credit upon their occupants. ~
The Jail we find to be substantial
structure; conpetcntly calculated to sup
ply the purposes for which it was erect
cd; Mr.. Lucas will complete it in few.
weeks, which, when done, our county, rs
was said in the present Immediately pre-
ceeding this one, eau boast of having
place not only secure for the safe custody
of prisoners, but also for it's beauty, Gu
paciousness aud durability.
The various apartments Of the Jail
are kept in cleanly aud healthful con-
dition. Some of the prisoners complain
of not being furnished with sufficient to
eat, but the Grand Jury respectfully sub
n'its that they are unable to say whether
this complaints made by the inmates sin,-
ply because thoyaro prisoners, and hence
not satisfied with anything connected
with their condition, or whether it pro-
ceeds from a want actually experienced.
We have carefully aud minutely in
lvestigated, as directed By your Honor,
the alleged carelcssncss on the part of
the Sheriff and Jail-keeper said to have
resulted in the escape of some of the
prisoners from the Jail, and we find that
fsaid escapes did not result in consequence
of dircliction of duty, either on the
part of the Sheriff or Jailer, but hap
pened thus: 1t appears that the lower
doors of the Jail were not finished ut the
time, ndthe keeper could not, as he does
now, secure them behind him on going
up to give the inmates their food and
this they appeared to have known, as
] their actions show; for IL was while the
Jailor was In the act or introducing
their food through the door, that they
Jumped upon him and choked hin,
down, thence mixing their exit, there
being no obstruction below, as above
stated, to prevent egress after their sell
doors had been opened. But this can
occur no more, as the doors below and
above have been completed and are
strong and secure And the Grand Jury
are of the opinion that 'tis inpraotioable
for persons hereafter to escape from the
Jail, If its Keeper judioiously observes
his duty ~ nl aa E ia
/ The Poor House we find in proper
condition the paupers are we'll fed and
taken care of otherwise
I The Offices of the Clerk Of the Court
Sheriff, Judge of Probate, and that Of
tho Auditor with the rest, we report kept
according TO system aud method But
there Is apo deficiency in each Of them
The Orangeburg news. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1867-1875, 1870-01-15

so plainly apparent that We cannot urge
the necessity OF Supplying Of it with too
much importance. In each of these
offices there are private and public docu-
ments, and records Of vast consequence,
andlyet those who are 50 much interest
ad in their security and preservation
from from 6re,, mus. If it comes, SEQ
them swept away, perhaps, in minutes
time.
There are, for instance, iu the Office Of
County Auditor, the books containing
the recent assessments Of the pcrsepai
property of this County, thc tax on
which has not yet been collected. Now
these alone, If destroyed, would cost the
County over two thousand dollars, (for a
rc-assessment would necessarily follow y
more than would purchase safes for each
of the Offices. 6 .'" 'i'eo9 s = 'i:'ri z
I Aud this 10 only one item. There ire
in the Office Of Probate judge bonds to
the amount Of two hundred thousand
dollars, in whose fate many are vitality
Interested, yet .hey have no guarantee of
their destruction.
But as morc potent argument in
favor of what We urge, We have only to
cite your IIonor's attention to the losses
which Beaufort County recently sus-
tanned in the destructien Of her Court
House by fire. There were no safes there
aud the public arcbieves, documents aud
records were all destroyed.
We would therefore, urgently recom-
mend that safes he furnished to all tire
public officers in whose contents the pub
lie are so much Interested, aud private
citizens have SO much ut stake. 4't
We would also call your Henor's Mt.
tention to the fact that when Jurors are
summoned here to serve the State. ut q
great expense to themselves, 'twould be
but right, when paid off iu J Jury Tickets,
to have some arrangements made to have
the Tickets cashed by the County Treas.
urer as soem ns the Inrins are dismissed.
There are many, known have Jury
Tickets, given to them for two Sessions
back, who have not been able to have
them cashcd yet. Even the merchants
will not take them at SO per ceut dis
count. And in the mind of the Grand
Jury, some screw must entirely be loose,
or turning in the wrong direction.
Aud in conclusion we would say that
there are four persons at the Poor House,
living upon the public, who are able to
support themselves if discharged there
,uloI
All Of which is respectfully submit
