GRAND JusY's REPORT.
Linn, for the October term, 1895, OF the !
circuit court, having disposed of all bus |
| iness presented to MS. would most re-
spectfully report that we have visited
the various county offices of said county
and find the business OF the different |
offices well kept and the officers obliging /
and courteous. We find the vault con-
nected with the clerks and recorders /
offices insufficient to hold the records of
the county and that there is consider
able extra wear on the books OF record !.
for the want of room We would re-
spectfully recommend that the county
court take steps TO increase the capacity
OF the vaults. We further recommend
that the closets in the Jail be removed
and substitute q tank closet, also the
closet at the court house be removed and 4
a trough system be substituted.
We have visited the county Jail and
find the prisoners we'll attended.
We would ask to be discharged from
further attendance upon court.
