Many lunatics were also sent to the jail for safe keeping. The process for classifying someone as "dangerously insane" in- volved much "red tape" and inmates were detained up to three years while waiting to be moved from Goderich. One violently insane woman was kept locked in her cell at all times because there was no other method of restraining her.

DONORS BLOOD Be a RED CROSS BLOOD DONOR As a result of extensive research undertaken last summer by Rob Cornish of Bayfield, the Huron Historic Jail now has new brochures and signs carrying more accurate information. The signs and booklets were written by Anne Boyle, as part of A Yung Canada You too can measure up Works project. Cornish's research last year was done in conjunction with the Experience '78 program. The most surprising fact that has been revealed is that the majority of the jail's inhabitants were not criminals, or lawbreakers. Gaolers made complaints "concerning the practise in Goderich of incarcerating the aged poor in the common gaol of the County." No other institutions such as hospitals or old peoples homes existed in the county, and as a result, needs were often kept in the jail. Then there was the case of the man committed for no other crime than "that of a sore finger." The last public hanging in Canada allegedly occurred in the park just outside the jail walls. Only one other hanging ever occurred at the jail. In 1911. a man was hung in one of the smaller court yards, and supposedly buried there. "However, the body has been removed, and only the story remains."
