jail-about

Updated: May 4, 2025

I had of course the commitments of those that were brought up to the jail-about 20 of them-and received from the officer of the court the other commitments of the last van load, and there I turned all of them except one that I kept back . . over to the receiving and discharging officer representing the District Workhouse, and they were taken down there that evening.
