moved it be placed on file:
Report of Committee No. 7:
To the Honorable the Board of Super
visors of Rock County:
Gentlemen: = Your Committee on
Buildings would respectfully report that
they have carefully estimated the cost OF
providing additional vault room in the
Office of the County Judge, as required
by resolution passed by the Board at its
January session. We find that the con
struction of the vault itself would cost
one thousand dollars and would require
at least an outlay of $500 for steel filing
cover and shelving, which would make
the total cost about $500 dollars and
would probably furnish vault room
enough to last from 10 to y years in
that office.
All of which is respectfully submitted
SIMON SMITH,
EDWARD RATHERAM,
j. D. GODFREY.
Adopted.
