REPORT or TnE SPECIAL MMlTIEE on IFS REMOVAL.
To the Legislature Of ihe State qf Vermont:
The undersigned, having been appointed by
his Excelency, John w Stewart, Governor, q
committee to investigate the matter of changing
the site Of the State Prison, agreoaby to an act
approved November %, 1870, respectfully
REPORT.
That they have attended 10 the duties Of their
appointment, and huve visited the town of Isle
La Mott, and made examination OF the site ps,,.
posed for the State Prison, aud the material
which is abundant for conviet l4bor, and heard
such evidence rs WAS presented tending to si,Qu
the adaptation Of convict labor 20 work on stone,
and the feasibility Of the erection OF suitable
buildings within reasonable expense, and with
prohahTe benefit to the State financially.
From such examination and information OBJ
taned, your committee are of the opinion that
the quarries are inexhaustihe, and Of a quality
that viii meet with ready market, and that
convict labor could he successfully employed on
said quarries. The location is healthy one and
cheap transportation at hand and suitable build
ings could he erected at reasonable expense and
should it he deemed advisable 10 remove the State
Prison, in the opinion of your committee under
proper management 1t could be made remunera-
tive to the State.
Your committee also, at the request of
and the immense granite quarries there sit
uated and now worked by individual enter
prise 10 n considerable extent The stone IN of
excellent quality for building purposes and
IL considerably used Tor ornamental work.
The location is healthy and central, but at
present the expense OF transportation 10 any
railroad or water communication would seem
"a condemn the prcprieiy Of establishing an iu-
stitutiOn which would require 50 much and such
heavy material 50 far from public steam or water
Your committee also visited the town of Rut.
land and made an examination of the marble
quaries, in order to ascertain whether convict
labor would be adapted 10 the work necessary in
the successful operation Of the business, and find
In their opinion the expense in the purchase Of a
suitable quarry and site would be too large for the
State u invest IN at present.
Your COMMITTEE doubt the practcabiliiy Of
working the eonsois with success, situated as
they necessarily would be.
Your committee iurther report that in obe-
ilencc to the second section Of said act they have
