To the Honorable, the Judges of the
Circuit Court for Garrett County,
Maryland:
The Grand Jury for the March
Term, 1888, hereby submits its report
as follows:
amined 43 witnesses and have found
fourteen presentments and indict-
ments.
Following the instructions delivered
to US in the charge Of His Honor Judge
Hustler, we have given careful consid-
Grafton to the matters brought to our
attention and have returned indict-
ments where we believed the evidence
warranted such action.
We have made an inspection of the
Jail and find it to be in excellent con-
dition and to be we'll taken care of by
the Sheriff, and we desire to commend
him for the good appearance of the
property which is in his charge. We
believe the prisoners are well taken
care of and have the benefit of whole
some food.
We have examined the Court House
and the several offices and find them
to be in good condition and well taken
care of by the officers in charge. The
records in the several offices are in
good condition and neatly kept and all
information asked for was readily
available and cheerfully given.
We would recommend to the County
Commissioners the following improve
ments and repairs:
First, we would recommend that the
Grand Jury room walls and ceiling be
painted; second, the walls and ceiling
in the Health Office should be painted;
third, we recommend that the walls
and ceiling in the Orphans Court be
painted fourth, the walls in the stair
way to the basement should be re-
painted.
We would recommend that the step
in front of the Court House leading to
Third street should be repaired and
made three inches wider. The grass
plot along the Alder street side should
be filled in and sowed with grass seed.
The sidewalk in front of the Sher-
ifs residence on Alder street and the
sidewalk on Fourth street leading to
the Jail entrance should be rebuilt.
We believe the officers of the county
are performing their duty in the en-
forcement of the law.
We desire to thank the States At
torney, Neil C. Fraley, for his cooper
alton and assistance given us during
our deliberations.
We extend our thanks to His Honor
Judge Hustler for the assistance he
has given us in performing our duties

All of which is respectfully sub
mitted.
