The Number of Bills Found and Their
Report.

for several weeks past, adjourned yesterday
having found in all four hundred and three
true bills. Of this number thirty-three are
for felonies and three hundred and seventy
for misdemeanors. In discharging them
finally Judge Aldridge complimen,ed them
upon the efficient name in which they had
performed their work. The following is
THEIR REPORT.
To the Hon, George N. Aldridge, Judge of the
18th Judicial District.
We, the grand jury, beg leave to
report that we have diligently
inquired into all violations of law coming to
our knowledge, and have returned into court,
as the result of our Investigations, thirty three
indictments for felonies, and three hundred
and seventy indictments for misdemeanors,
and we refer the court to our works for the
efficiency with which we have discharged our
duties. We have directed our attention
particularly to those evils and violations of
law most detrimental to society and good
morals, and which are too frequently ignored
by grand jurors. We extend our thanks to
all our efficient corps of officers who have
yer been ready to assist us in our labors, for
he courtesies and attention extended US. In
regard to the jail and other business, we
have some report to make that other grand
jurors have made.
