REPORT Of NEVADA
COUNTY GRAND JURY

To the Hon. J. M. Carter,
Judge of the Nevada Circuit
Court:
We the Grand Jury having
completed our labors beg to sub
NIT this our final report:
We examined 81 witnesses,
and have returned 10 Bills of In
dictment.
We have returned indictments
in all cases wherein our judg-
ment the evidence would war
rant doing so.
We find the books of the several
County officers neatly and wei
kept. We did not enter into all
the accounts of the different off
GERS, accepting in the main the
report of the Commissioners OF
Accounts, appointed for that
special work. We find only /;
small balance due by Constables
and would recommend that the
County Court look after thest
small deliquents. All the Just
ices of the Peace have filed theil
reports as the law directs, as wei
as all Constables, and we fine
that the Road overseers have al.
reported under the manner of tn,
work as now conducted in the
County Court.
We appointed a committee tc
look over and investigate the
county farm and their report We
find the farm in good condition
and we'll kept. We recommend
that the farm be sold and thai
forty acres be bought nearel
Prescott, as the farm is an oui
of the way place and more lane
in our opinion than the County
needs.
We visited the county Jail ano
find it in a sanitary condition and
we'll cared for. We would cal
the attention of the County
Judge to the damaged condition
of the West corner Of Jail build
ing and recommend that he pro
ceed at once to have necessar!
repairs to protect the property
We ask that the old Jail build
ing in the south corner Of tht
court house yard be torn down
and removed from the cour
house yard. 1t is a very un
slightly structure and should no.
be allowed to remain there am
longer.
In conclusion we wish to con-
graduate the County upon the
fidelity and care exercised by The
County officers. The Clerks
books and records are unuSally
we'll kept. The Collecting Off
GERS have settled fully on time.
We note that Mr.. Hood the
Sheriff will retire at the end OF
his present term. after years OF
faithful service. The citizenship
of the County has had in faith
full officer.
Thanking your Honor and the
officers of the Court for prompt.
ness and efficient manner in as
sisting in the discharge of our
duties.
