Report of the Grand Jury
at February Term, 1855.
fi'O the honorable the Judges of the court
a of quarter sessions of tbe peace in and
for the county of Columbia.
The undersigned Grand Inquest of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania inquiting
for the body of (tie county of Columbia, Re
spectfully Report.
That they have pursuant to their required
duties calmlv snd deliberately, investigated
ail bills of indictment presented for their con
sideration al ibis term, and have passed up
on iliem accordingly. They have also made
a thorough examination of iho Court house,
Ja, and all other public buildings, and find
them generally in good repair.
Ii is within tbe knowledge of tbe Inquest
that the public road leading along Fishing
creek above Orungevi He is much injured and
üb-lrucled by the creek at this present sea
ion. But iu our judgment, the ditkeuhy wiil
be obviated whenever the bridge new in
coiiteraplaiion shall be built over Fiehmg
creek a short distance above where the road
is now injured by the water.
Tho violations of law in this community,
aTe not many, nor are the few.climes of a
high mature. It is a cause -of atuugrasaiitf ion
thai our labors can be short, and. that no se
rious reproaches attach to our community.
The condition of public morals we believe
to be about us good as the frailties of hu.tißn
nature allow to bo expected—while the boun
ties of Providence and the blessings of free
institutions still continue to fill onrlan-d.
All of which is respectfully submitted this
seventh duy of February A. D. 1855.
