To His LORDSHIP Cum Jusixon Amman,
BOLDING ASSlza bITTINes AT GODRRICH,
Melton, 1900.
The Grand Jurors of Oar Lady the
Queen present that they have visited the
jail and found everything, glean and
tidy and the prisoners therein all satis-
fied with their treatment. There are ten
prisoners ; ehree under chargee of in.
sanity, one waiting extradition and six
committed for vagrancy.
We woatd strongly recommend that
the jailer be provided with better a000m•
modation for bis private use, the present
apartments devoted to that use being
behind the age, besides too confined and
not euffioiently isolated from the
prisoners. •
We also visited the County Hones of
Refuge and found therein 81 inmates,
who appeared to be happy and contented
and well satisfied with their treatment ;
the premises appeared neat and clean and
the food sufficient and wholesome, and
think that Mr. and Mrs. Frenoh try to
do their bast in everything pertaining to
their drake. The house ie filled almost
to its capacity.
All of whioh is respectfully submitted.
