Final Report of Grand Jury

To his honor the Judge of the End
Judicial District Court in and for
Bossier Parish, La: We your Grand
Jury for said parish, duly empaneled
and sworn for this term Of Court, beg
leave to make the following report,
to Wit:
After having been ably and fully
charged by your honor as to our
duties, we retired to our room to
deliberate and pass upon oil such
matters as might probably come
before us.
We have investigated Isl charges,
and have found rs bills of indictment,
the other charges dismissed and
ignored for the reason that they were
mostly trivial, and the evidence III
our judgement insufficient to make
cases that would lead to conviction.
We find great majority of the
| cases coming up from the Magis-
trates Court of Ward Two to be of a
very trivial nature, fully SO per cent.
of the afidavits made out in said
Court have been made out by one
party, and certain crowd of witness,
seem to figure in a great many cases,
and we recommend that the citizens
of ward 2 will frown upon the action
of the Magistrate for recognizing SO
many frivolous charges, inasmuch as
it is entailing upon the parish a great
deal of expense, and upon the Grand
Jury q great deal of unnecessary
work.
We find the public roads in fear
full condition, but under our present
system of working roads we do not
expect to see them in any better con
dition.
We find complaint of riding and
driving upon the public levees of the
parish, and especially upon the SEQ
PM levee, but have not been able tC
locate the guilty parties, and advise
the citizens to locate public road
and to keep careful watch and have
the guilty parties unprecedented.
We have examined the Offices o.
the Sheriff, Clerk and Parish Treas
urer, and find everything in very
good condition.
We have also examined the Jail
: and fnd it neatly and clearly kept
and the prisoners well cared for.
We extend thanks to the Court fo
it's able and explicit charge, and TO
; the courtesies shown US. Also. t.
our Sheriff, Clerk and their deputies
and our able District Attorney an,
the Parish Treasurer.
Having performed our duties t.
the best of our abilities, and havin;
nothing more before US, we tende
this, our final report, to your honor
and ask that it be received and tina
we be discharged.
