Georgetown, Oct. s.-The grano

TO the Judges rs follows:
According to custom ana the re-
ouirements of the law, we have visit
ed the institutions owned by the
county. and with respect to the Ieh
we beg TO report that we find the jail
premises kept In a clean and sanitary
condition. We desire to compliment
Sheriff William l.. Mcllva'ne upon
the manner in which he has careo
for the Jail premises, and we peiieVe
that they are at present in the pest
condition that they have been in Tor
@ rreat many years. The quarters
for the prisoners are kept clean and
sanitary and are az comfortapie An ~
is possible TO make them In buiiu-
ing lacking many OF the modern con

Low Court secure and supply new

recommend that Improvement ps

the farm connected with the institu

for and cultivated. yet we feel tina
under existing abnormal conditions
Il cannot possibly be made payinl
investment an an agricultural enter
prise. because OF the scarcity ant
hish price OF labor, machinery. etc
We recommend that the Levy Cour
sell all that part OF the almshous'
farm west OF the DUPONT road.
We wish especially TO comment
the present efficient Board OF Trus
tees Of the Poor. They have givel
much time and attention TO the in
stitution at considerable persona
sacrifice. and have added 10 tn
equipment and made changes whicl
have placed the institution in muc
more sanitary condition. We fin
the buildings have been recent
painted and present very neat an
