Grand Jury Report.

Hon. Il. @. DreaC, Judge Of the 2nd
judicial District CUart: We, the
Grand Jury, for the District Court.
in and for the Parish of Bossier;
respectfully report that we have
passed upon about forty bills, iguor-
ing twelve and presenting twenty
four.
We regret to feel it our duty to
report the often reiterated com.
plants of our predecessors in regard
to the public roads. Throughout
the parish roads are reported in a
lamentable condition, yet not one
overseer has been reported to our
body. We regard the Office of Road
Commissioner as spurious, and
recommend that it be abolished.
We recommend that bridges be
built over Flat River and Red Chute,
on the Bellevue and Red River road.
The bridge over Fox Skin, near j.
B. Oneal's, is dangerous, and es-
pecially needs a new floor. The same
complaint is made to us about the
bridge over Clark's bayou, near
MERGERS store, on the Minden, Point
and Red River road.
Some repairs are needed on the
Jail, aud we suggest that they be
made at once.
Great uneasiness is felt as to the
safety of the Court house, and we
recommend that the Police Jury
have it thoroughly examined by
experts.
We find the Jail well kept and
the prisoners kindly treated and
well fed.
We find the public Offices in good
condition.
We thank your Honor, the Dis;
trict Attorney, and the officers of
Court for your courtesy and assist
ance.
Respectfully submitted.
r. 81. CURRY,
Foreman of the Grand Jury.
