SUMMARY OF OTHER PROCEEDINGS.

day afternoon was the report OF
the constabes of the respective
districts in the County. The COM
plant most commonly heard in
their reports was, that the condi-
tion Of the public roads In many
places was bad. When the large
amount OF money that is spent
each year presumably for the bet
terment of the public highways is
considered, this complaint ought
not be heard. The Court instruct
ed the District Attorney to see to
it that the respective Supervisors
get busy.

called and twenty-four persons
answered to their names. Upon
request of Howard Charlton, he

they retired to the privacy of their
own room to consider such matters
as should be laid before them.
The names of the petit Jurors
were then called and all but three
of them we're found to be present.
