PREsENTMENT.
TO TIis Honor, Judge James Aldrich,
Presiding:
The Grand Jury would respectfully
report that they have carefully con-
sidered and acted upon all bills of in
dictmcnt given out to them by the
Solicitor.
A committee OF our body appointed
to examine the County Home, report
County Home and stockade on premises
we'll kept and the inmates we'll cared
for, and they express themselves as be-
ing we'll satisfied with the treatment
received from those in authority.
We find the Jail in need OF some re.
pairs, some glass broken out OF the
windows and cords to weights of win
dows need replacing, also tho fireplace
in the kitchen needs repairing.
We havo examined the books OF Mag
istrates 8. S. Cunningham, J. Fl.
Williams, w. r. Suber, B. Z. Day,
and s. l.. Fellcrs, and find them well
kept, with fines properly accounted for.
The books OF Magistrate Nj. p. Har-
rington have also been examined and
found well kept, except in one case
where the fine has not been collected
and turned over to the County Treas
urer, but marked as having been
settled by note to be paid in short
time. The books of the other Magis-
trates were not presented for examina-
tion to the grand jury.
Whereas, we have recommended pre-
vioasly that free ferry bo established
over Saluda River, in the lower part of

of a FREQ bridge being built at an early
date at Kcmpson's Ferry.
Complaint has been made about the
condition of the road leading from j..
w. Derrick's to S. S. Paysingcr's, we
therefore recommend that the Super
visor require that this road be put in
proper condition at once.
We have made inquiry about the dis
bursemont OF school funds, and have
not heard of any funds that have not
been properly applied.
| We recommend our clerk be paid the
