We, the Grand Jury selected, chosen and sworn for August term Siqierior Court, Taliaferro county 1881, do make the following general present¬ ments by appropriate committees ap¬ pointed by tiie Foreman. We find the records of the Clerk of Superior Court, and that of the Ordi¬ nary in correctly recorded, and indorsed a neat a >d legible manner. The books of the Comity Treasurer.we find neatly and correctly kept, with proper vouchers for all disbursements, with a balance on hand of eleven hundred and eighty dollars and seventy cents.

We recoin mend a (town chairs be provided for Traverse Jurors, We recommend most earnestly that water closets be provided under each stair case inside of court house building, to be kept oi>en only during the sessions of the Courts. The jail, we find in good repairs. We find there is no partition by which the sexes can be seperated or privacy secured. We therefore recommend that a partition be made and water closets constructed, and the ventila tion be improved if possible. We find the public roads generally in a passable condition. We call the attention of the proper authorities to the condition of the several rail road crossings throughout the county, and to several localities where large rocks appear in road bed ing travel unsafe. We recommend these impediments be removed without delay. We call attention to the neees sity of a bridge over Harden’s creek at Ellington’s Ford, We recommend also, that a correspondence be had with Greene county authorities, with a view to defining the boundary line be tween the two counties. We also rec commend toat an appropriation be made by the proper authorities for the purchase of a new s»*t of »Superior Court Dockets. We further reccom mend that John 11. Jackson of the C08th District, G. M., and N. Sanders, of the 006th District, G. M., be appointed aS Notaries for their respective Districts.
