We the Grand Jur, for the October
Term Iof your Court respectfully report
to your Honors that we have been in SEES
sion for nine days, that during that time
we have examined seventy nine wit
nesses, have made twenty four present
ments, have found the same number of
true bills and have dismissed seven
charges. A committee visited the Aims
House and their report is hereto appended
We in a body have visited the jail and
found the building clean and in good con
dition except the windows which are open
and in our opinion should have. shutters
put in them. We found seventeen prison.
ers confined therein. One of whom is d
luuatic male pauper and we recommend
that he be sent to an Insane Asylum 10.
treatment.
We found the sink or pit in the yard il
which the Stops of the Jail are put in a bae
condition. A stencil arises therefrom
which in our opinion is injurious to the
health of the prisoners and the citizens OF
| the Town. We therefore recommend thai
b rrcis be purchased to put the said Stop:
IN and that said barrels be removed ano
| emptied outside the corporate limits of the
Town once every month or as often a:
may be necessary, or that a sewer be bull
to carry away from the premises said Stops
We recommend that the pump be re
paired,
All the bonded constables of the Coun
ty have appeared before US and repor
that they know of no violations of tn,
law in their respective Districts eXcep
what have been already brought to GU
| notice.

| by the prompt aid of the State Attorney
the Sheriff and his deputies, the Clerk o
| the Circuit Court and our Bailtf
| We thank your Honurs for the aid Civ
en- and the courtesy so kindly extended u
