These figures may not be absolutely
correct as They were giycn from mem
ory by the secretary, but within few
dollars, they are correct.
Ten thousand dollars or moro Of the
special appropriation was used in re-
building the main building. The exact
amount cannot bo stated, but the
board Of visitors congratulated itself
that the estimate it made last year
That would be needed to rebuild the
main building in addition to the insur-
ance money, was approximately cor
rect, and ten thousand dollars was the
estimate made by them. q tuition fec
of $40 is provided forbutnonc was paid
during the last year. Rcceipts from
this source do not show in tho above
statement.
It has hcen found that the plan of
working the students on the farm was
not satisfactory, and thirty conyicts
are now employed to do this work.
These convicts arc kept constantly en-
ployed, and the good condition of the
crops shows their efficiency. Another
reason given for not employing the
boys this year was that there was no
money to pay them. a trustee is au.
