Report Of Grand Jury.

To the Hon. II, n. Hutton, Judge pre-
siding. at the March term. 1896, of
the 81. Francis Circuit Court.
The Grand Jury of said county, for
said March term. 1896, of the Circuit
Court. would most respectfully report
AS follows:
We have carefully examined into all
cases of violations of law that have
come TO our knowledge. We have en-
deavored to indict no man from hatred
or malice. neither have we left any
man unindicted fer love, fear. favor or
hope of reward. when in our judgment
we thought he had violated the law.
We had Al witnesses brought before
us. Have found %, true bills, Is for
misCemeanors and 8 for felonies.
We. AS body, visited tire county
Jail, and we fouhdlthere 10 prisoners,
who report that they are well fed and
reasonably well provided for. and in
good health. We found upon exami-
nation that the jailor. VIM. Hawkins,
has made we'll directed effort. and
has performed his duties in very
efficient and satisfactory manner. III
Keeping the Jail In fair sanitary con-
dition. There is some improvement
required in the way Of sewerage, and
the bedding in the cells, as a number
Of the prisoners report lice i'm their
cells. A committee of our body inves-
tigated the condition of the Poor
House, and find it IN 4 fair condition.
We find therein three women. one
man and one boy, all very we'll dressed
and seemed to have plenty of fires aud
good beds. and from all appearances
have had good medical attention. The
house is built in high dry place, and
We believe good healthy, location.
The flooring in the house is rather de-
fective and needs repairing. There is
also scarcity of room, and We recon-
mend that two or three rooms be added
to the house.
We have examined the transcripts of
the Justices of the Peace. and as far AS
we are able TO ascertain, find they are
correct.
We have carefully examined all the
reports sent in by Road Overseers and
we find upon investigation that the
roads of the county are in fair con-
dition, aud the bridges of the county
are i'm good condition, with one or two
exceptions.
A committee of our body have ex-
amlned the books in the Clerks Office
and we find them kept in neat and
business-like way. and i'm this connec-
ton we would recommend that the
county rent room on the ground floor
for the Clerk 8 office, as we consider
same in bad place. In case of fire. it
would be impossible to sage the rec
ords. books. &c, contained therein.
In closing our report, We tender our
sincere thanks to your Honor, District
Attorney John II. Hicks, Clerk Il. c.
Folbre. Sheriff w. L. Williams and all
other Off of the county, with whom
we had business, for courtesies shown
us, and assistance rendered in the dis
charge of our duties. and we especially
desire to make mention Of the prompt
