JAILER GRIFFIN'S REPORT.
At present there are the following seven
prisoners ooulined in the jail the first

are insane - Robert Wallaoe, ' Tooker
smith ; Joshua Craven, Montreal ; John
McAuley, Dungannon ; John Chalwell,
Roeerville ; David Patton, Goderioh ;
Harry Oliver, Ashfield ; Jas. Hardy,
Colborne. I einoerely hope your honor-
able body will deoide at this meeting to
pat a better system of heating into the
jail. The water pipes have been frozen
several times this Winter. According.
to the revised Jail Roves it will be nec-
essary for you to furnish two suits of

Other Counties are doing so. Hoping
these two requests will meet with your
approval, Yours einoerely,
JOSEPH GRIFFIN, Jailer.

made attractively low, without either sacrificing style or quality. None of the
goods in the sale are made especially for "Sale Purposes" A few of the lots are
odd or small and therefore must be closed out, in other cases the goods were
made for Winter wear and must be cleared out at once. It has always been the
policy of this ptore to carry no goods over to another season if low prices will
move them. We mention below some of the special offerings. It will pay you
well to visit us during this sale.
