Report of the Board of County Vis-


The board of county visitors on Thurs
day, June 16, examined the county in1rm-
ary and jail The members were all pres
ent except c. B. Newton. The reports of
Mrs. McClintock and Mrs. Cone concern
ing the municipal jailS of Garrettsville and
Kent were received and approved.
The following was unanimously adopted:
While we fully approve of the general
condition and management OF the lnhrm-
ary and heartily commend the faithfulness
and efficiency of the superintendent and
wife, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. W. McComb, and
while we find the sanitary arrangements
generally satisfactory, yet we are thor
oughly satisfied that some important
changes are needed in the washing de-
partment, and we would most emphati-
cally recommend that the building devoted
to this purpose should be properly re-
paired; that tank of sufficient size to
meet the needs of this department should
be erected, and that modern steam wash
ing machinery should be introduced.
We are gratified to report that we find
the general condition of the Jail satisfac
tory; yet we feel assured that the demand
of both the law and humanity is that such
additional improvements shall be made as
will not only keep separate the sexes, but
also prevent the young from aSsociat1ng
with the hardened, and thus avoid making
tie institution school of vice and crime.
And we are pleased to learn that the COM
missioners are arranging for such needed
changes and will secure the same as soon
as possible, or as soon as the finances of
the county will Justify.
The secretary was Instructed to COM
municate the action of the board of visit
ors to the mayors of Garrettsville and
Kent, and to the inf1rmary directors and
county commissioners.
Adjourned to meet on the first Thurs
day in September at p. m.
