"The committee on county records
have investigated the various records
Of the county and found them all
kept in good shape except the York
township docket during r. L. de-
Loach's term. Comparing his docket
with report Of j. L. Sanders. 1t was
found he had neglected to put the
cases of Sherer, Barron, Dorsett,
Mobley, GLADDEN. and Thomasson on
docket
Also H. E. Johnson had left off
his docket the case Of Alex. Cook
for cock fighting.
1.-The chaingang was found to be
in good shape and the prisoners well
cared for.
1.-The committee on county build
ings report that the Jail Is in as good
condition as possible. The court
house is inadequate for the present
needs, as the clerk Of the court has
to rent room outside of the court
house to keep part Of his books;
also. the treasurer and auditor are
badly crowded, as has been reported
by former grand juries. Also, audi
torium and jury rooms are too small.
All officers need more room and light.
The county supervisor has to give
up his room to the grand jury while
they are in session, and 1t Is too small
for their comfort. The auditor has to
give half Of his room to the petit
jury. The grand jury in a body re-
quests our delegation in the legisla-
ture to give US a modern court house
to conform to the growing need Of
our prosperous county, for anyone
can see we have outgrown our pres
ent one several years.
I'VE have examined the supervis-
ors' report of the magistrates, and re-
turn them herewith.
Thanking your honor and the So
licitor for the courtesies extended us.
and II there be no further business,
we beg to be excused"
