as GOOD and sufficient to secure the county

at Tbev In.v also examined the books and pa
rers in the Office of the Judge OF PROBATE;
XII anpertaining to this Office was found
in rood order, the papers vel! arranged
and the books neatly kept. All the money
IN the hands OF this officer was proper!
The committee sent to the jail report
that they found the jail in clean and neat
condition. The prisoners appear 10 DC
we'll attended to. There IS want OF bed
DING for the comfort of the prisoners.
There is need of locks on some or the
cells. There is no special need of repairs
to the iail building. The outhouses are
all apparently in good condition: We
thiok a ditch of sufficient capacity should
be dug on the upper side of the jail lot 10
turn the waste waters from the adjoining
lots from running on the jail lot. Itls Is
reouired for the health of those living Ill
the jail. -,

we have had before US the books OF on
" two of the Trial Justices OF tfe comfy
These books seem to be IN good order
and well kept.
The committee who examined the poo!
house report the house to be IN good
order, everything neat and proper, and
the paupers look as if they had received
proper aud careful attention. The la"d
of the farm sho1ld be farmed more care
fully to prevent washing. We ind there
fourteen pe:s-two whites and tWelve
blacks.
The old brickyard beyond the cemeter.",
| known as Pools b1ickyard, is reported 10
us es containing stagnant water, Wnlch IS
INJURIOUS to the health OF those living Ill
the vicinity.
Parties have been reported to rs for
carving concealed weapons. The names
of the parties and the witnesses thereto
are herewith handed to the Clerk on
separate sheet. =,
The public roads and some OF the
bridges in many sections of the county
are reported to us as being in an extreme,
" bad condition. There is complaint that
the roaG laws are not equltably enforced.
In some sections oyerseers require hands
to work full six days; in other sections
the hands are only required te work one
or two DAYS. The effect of this is that the
roads are out of repair, and in addition to
this, dissatisfaction is created with those
haods who have worked the six days re-
quired by law.
One section of road has had no overseer
appointed on it this year.
A bridge is needed over Curl creek on
the foad to Pomaria.
The public road below Colony church,
at the. railroad crossing at the Cook place,
should be so changed as TO run 90 the
west side Of the Columbia and Greenvil!e !e
railroad down to where that road again
crosses the public road near the Fair place.
This would not require change of more
than one-quaroer OF mile. and would
avoid the crossing of two railroads IN that
distance.
Near Timothy creek, on the road to St.
Luke's church, lot of lumber has been
