Your committee feel that it would not be out
| that III their opinion the people of Jefferson Co
should feel thankful that their poor and unfOrt.
nate are in such good hands We have been
| somewhat familiar with the management of the
! poor house for few years past and have made
/ frequent calls. We always find things in perfect
order and instead of finding lot Of wild in
sane, and general feeling of discomfort, we
! find it more like happy family with a kind
! indulgent father and mother, and while we ad-
| nit and acknowledge that Mr. Trucks is an
| efficient officer, an honorable man, with a kind
heart, and a man that is in full sympathy with
/ the unfortunate, we do believe that the matIon,
! Mrs. Trucks does her full share in her depart
| ment, and that the people OF this county are un-
! der obligations to her. She cannot be otherwise
| than kind, and her WhCle life is given to the
happiness and comfort of those that are under
| her care O. S. CORNISH,
