Mr. Aikens, deputy inpector, ro•
ported:
The county of Huron claims a re•
putat'on as a banner county in the
Province, Its gaol however has no
right tosuch distinction, very little
can be said 1 fit other than it is bet-
ter than none at all, It needs a
thorough over hauling, and modern-
ising, particularly in its sanitary ar-
rangements, plutnbing, drainage, etc
the gaoler's a ftpartlnents should also
be raised u to story higher. They
are neither wholesome or comfortable
at present. With a site on the bank
of ;t river some thirty or forty feet
above the water line, the council are
still content to allow the sewerage to
drain iota cars pools which the gaoler
says are rarely or never cleaned out.
Nature has given such perfect
drainage facilities, there can be no
reason, why advantage should not
be taken of them. I made a thorough
tour of the building and found its
appartnlent$ as well kept as possible
Tho management of the gaol
is good, otherwise it would be in a
worse state than It is.
