The alms house, under the supervision of Mre, Hall, contains six inmates, four white men and two negro women. Three ofthe men are imbeciles The com- mittee made a pretty thorough in- vestigation of the premiees, and the inspection found no fault with the manner of the management of the- house, and so far as Mrs. Hall was concerned of the care and treatment of the unfortunates in her charge. The house, however, is out of dateas a public building and insuffici» t to accommodate comfortably any great number of inmates, and sooner or later the county court from sheer necessity will be compelled to re:pond to the demands of the county in tus care and comfort of persons wav may become charges.
