to the large number of bills which are at each

and in which the County is mulcted in the
costs, for want of persons to prosecute. He

The Grand Jury Report: That they visited
the Hospital, Alms House and County Prison,
and found them in good order and condition ;
they express their disapprobation of the re
turns by committing magistrates of minors
from ten to fifteen years of age to answer
charges of petit larceny, which they think
should be determined by the magistrates
themselves instead of troubling the Court with
them ; they condemn the derelictions of duty
on the part of Constables, in the manner of
returning the keepers of tippling-houses,
without the names of witnesses to sustain the
charge, causing the bills to be ignored and
the County to pay the costa ; they deprecate
the custom of our Constables and committing
magistrates in the free use of authority in
apprehending, asserting and committing
vagrants, who would otherwise pass beyond
the County, as by the abuse of this right our
prison is continually filled with them causing
a large amount of the public money to be
used for their maintenance, costs of arrest
and conviction ; they recommend that some
plan be devised by which the vagrants may
be employed and the proceeds of their labor
be appropriated as a fund to renumerate
the County for the expense of keeping and
feeding them ; they condemn the prison van
used in conveying prisoners to and from the
prison and recommend that a more suitable
one be procured ; they recommend that the
Commissioners appropriate to the American
Fire Company of Lancastes, a sum not ex
ceeding $5OO towards the payment of said
Fire Engine, &c.
