tween the military and strikers is at an
end, but there are still isolated attacks

Grand Jury Prsssntmsnt.


State of South Carolina, Ooonee County.
TO His Honor, Judge George f..
Prince, Presiding at the Summer Term:
We, tue Grand Jury In and for said
county, beg leave to make the following
presentment:
We have, by committee, visited the
dispensaries at Seneca and Walhalla, and.
SO far as we are able to observe, find that
they are being run nacoording to law.
We have also visited, by committee,
the county Jail and find the same in
clean and healthy condition.
We have, by committee, visited one of
the county road outfits. We find that
by the machines, but would recommend
that an older overseer be placed in
charge of the work; also that man
more capable be placed in charge of the
driving, as the outfit which we visited
had an incapable driver-in that he did
not know how to manage team. We
would also recommend that the officials,
when buying mules for the road ma
chimes, secure those between tho ages of
ten and thirteen years, as they are more
capable of hard work, and it would also
be matter of economy. Young mules
soon wear out and have to be sold at
sacrifice.
We have, by committee, visited the
poor farm and find splendid crop on
the place. There are II inmates and all
seem to be we'll cared for and content.
We find two young mules at the farm, and
recommend that they be kept there, and
not put on the roads, as they would soon
be worked down and unfit for use.
We present Dave Gambrell for carrying
concealed weapons and give as witnesses
to prove the same: Ike Reeder, Will
Woods, Henry:kci 9th and Solomon Perry.
We present Arthur Barton, ALI Aiken
and Ben Aiken for vagranoy and give as
witnesses to prove the same: Marshall
Abbott, J. L. NJ oser, w. f. Norris, w. r.
Lynch aud James Rogers.
We present Thomas Sloan and Kate
Craig for living in adultery, and give as
witnesses TO prove the same: Jesse Lay,
Jr., Henry Glazener, George Choice,
Henry Knight, Sam Robertson and
George Mckinney.
We present Dec Adams for bastardy,
and give as witnesses to prove the same: {:
Mandy Carver, Monroe Carver, Sarah
Carver, Laura Cobb and jim Ivester.
We present Clark McDade and Mrs.
- Golden for adultery, and give as
witnesses to prove the same: w. p.
Powell, Mrs. w. p. Powell, Jesse Hays,
ID. II. Rowland, s. p. Dendy, III. A. II.

Attached hereto is the report of +. b.
General, made last November, and
which we make as part of our present
ment. 1t shows the condition of the
county finances at that time. 1t shows
that j. X. Kay, County Treasurer, was
due the county at that time cash bal
ance of S2,2l2.00. We understand
through Mr.. Kay's bondsmen that this
amount is now ready to be paid over I'd
the county, aud we ask that the County
Board of Commissioners be required to
collect same at once.
| We recommend that tho County Super
