Armstrong, Chairman, House of Refuge. The House of Refuge Committee reported as follows: Re the Lamont estate: Mr. La- mont has been for some time an in- mate of the house of .Refuge and being blind and incapable of look- ing after his farm er affairs, we ap- plied to the county judge for the necessary/authority to administer the estate. This was granted, and we took steps to have all notes and ac- counts collected and the estate put in order. The farm was offered for sale at first by auction. but the hest offers did not reach tho reserve e bed It was fisltyidis osed of to Mr. Rode- rick p rick Mackay for the sum of $2,400. All the necessary papers have been completed and registered and the balanie of the purchase stoney, af- ter deducting expenses, deposited to the credit of the county in trust for Lamont. Re the Swinbank property, the need of more land has long been felt and your committee took steps in the early spring to secure the same. We had two propositions placed before us: (al to purchase the Plumsteel farm of 40 acres across the London road in Stanley township for the slim of $4,000; (b) to purchase the Swin- bank property north of the House of Refuge farm -consisting of 23 acres for $4,000, On this property is a brick house and Other out buildings and a good orchard, taking up in all three acres of the 23. We decided in favor of the Swin- bank property as being the more Convenient and better for the pur- poses needed. Swinbank has since purchased the 3 acres with the house ,,for .$1500 ,leaving the cost of the '20 acres clear at $2,700, The whole 'transaction has been completed and purchasemoney paid. We decided that all paying inmates be charged $3.50 per week for board 5Xc ePt those requiring special care and 'attendance and that the rate for �aueh be fixed by the Inspector and i..4Inniger. This charge was fixed at -per week.
