THE COUNTY JAIL.
In the matter of providing a suitable jail for the incarceration of its criminals, Taylor county was much slower to move than many of its neighbors. The rea- son for this is doubtless found in the fact that there has been much of the time that a jail was unnecessary as the criminal list has always been small. Being a purely agricultural county, populated by farmers from the neighboring states on the east, having no large towns or cities, the county attracted only the people of a moral and law abiding character; hence, the small per cent of criminals. For many years, the few prisoners were taken to the jails of other counties, but in time the question of a county jail came up and according to the records, at the June session of the board of supervisors. for 1874, the following resolution was offered :
Resolved, That D. B. Hoover, together with the auditor, be empowered to ascertain the cost of erecting a building on the southeast corner of the public square, twenty by twenty-four feet, and two stories high, the lower part to have two cells, ten by twelve feet, to be cased with iron, to be used as a jail, and if the probable cost, completed, including ironing and foundation, will not exceed one thousand, two hundred dollars, that they proceed to let the contract for the erec- tion of said building.
This resolution was adopted, and the jail built. The cells were put in, and the upper story was used for jury rooms. The building was a cheap affair, the cells insecure, and it was not long until it was found to be inadequate, and it was deemed necessary to build another jail. The matter came up in board meet- ing in 1880, and the report of the committee bears the date of January, 1881, hav- ing been made to the board of supervisors during the session of that month. Following is the report :
On the 17th of September the committee contracted with P. J. Pauley & Bros., through their agents, Blackmar, Dorr & Co., for two steel-clad cells ; also an iron outside door and window guards, the cost of the same to be three thousand, eight hundred and fifteen dollars.
December 18th the committee met, and after a careful examination of the jail cells, they were accepted, and the contract price-three thousand, eight hun- dred and fifteen dollars-was paid to Blackmar, Dorr & Co., agents of the said P. J. Pauley & Bros. In addition to the foregoing there were fourteen dollars freight paid on window guards and outside door, making a total cost of the iron work on jail and cells of three thousand, eight hundred and twenty-nine dollars.

HISTORY OF TAYLOR COUNTY
On October 9th the committee met and contracted with Harley Greenlee to build a jail building for the sum of seven hundred and fifty dollars, all of which is respectfully submitted.
W. P. SHERWOOD, Chairman Building Committee.
This jail served all the purposes intended for several years. As the town had no adequate sewage system the vaults could not be properly drained, and in time complaints came up regarding the sanitary condition of the building. This led to more careful investigation which established the fact that the jail was in such a condition that it endangered the health of inmates. The board made unsuccessful attempts to remedy this, so the court forbade the sheriff confining prisoners in it. This necessitated taking prisoners to jails in adjoining counties, which was expensive as well as inconvenient. This led to agitation of the ques- tion of a new jail, which in time took such shape that the board, in 1901, let the contract for a jail and sheriff's residence to Geo. W. Grote. The old cells were used and the entire cost was less than five thousand dollars, and we have a build- ing that is substantial and provides comfortable quarters for the sheriff in close proximity to his prisoners, when he has them, which has been a rare thing for the past two years.
The building stands near the southeast corner of the square, and is in point of beauty a fit companion piece for our stately courthouse.
THE POOR FARM.
Since the dawn of history charitable institutions have existed in some form. With the advance in knowledge, civilization, has come a higher sense of the duty resting on men to care for their less fortunate fellows, and in consequence there has resulted a better understanding of the needs of humanity and better methods of meeting them. Institutions of a charitable nature have sprung up in every land, more or less perfect in their organization and administration, all of which are doing a noble work for humanity. But, as is more interesting to us, our own land is in no respect behind other lands in its care for the sick, the poor and the unfortunate. In every state are numerous institutions cared for at public expense, and in nearly every county the same feeling of kindness finds expression in the maintenance of a home for the same classes. The care of this county for the un- fortunate in life has been most kind. ] Busied with individual cares and necessities as its inhabitants have been, they, nevertheless, have found opportunity to pause and inquire into the condition of the poor of the county. In the earlier days it was the custom to place a family in charge of one or more unfortunates, tor which a stated amount was paid for providing food and clothing, the family being required to give bonds for the faithful performance of their duty. A case in point, serving to illustrate all these particulars is found on the records of this county, affecting, however, Ringgold county, then under the jurisdiction of Taylor. The entry is given verbatim :
OCTOBER, 18 DAY, 1852.
Know all men by these presents that I, Jerry Harper, of the county of Ring- gold and the state of Iowa, for and in Consideration of the sum of one hundred

Attest : LOTT HOBBS.
JERRY HARPER.
Private families often cared for persons in this way, and this is but one of the numerous instances of the past. The attention of the county was aroused to the matter, and the first official act relative to providing a home for this class was in the year 1868. At the September session of the board of supervisors that year, Supervisor Hamblin offered the following resolution which was adopted :
Resolved, That the committee on paupers be and hereby is requested to take the necessary steps to find suitable location for a farm of not less than one hun- dred and sixty acres, upon which to build a county poor house, and report at the next session of this board.
This committee reported in the November session of the board, and recom- mended the purchase of the southwest 1/4 of section 29, township 69, range 33. This report was accepted and a committee appointed to make the purchase of this land "or other suitable premises for a poor farm, and report at the next meet- ing." The record of the January session of 1869 contains the following entry :
The special committee on poor farm report that they purchased the south- west 14 of section 29, township 69, range 33, for nine hundred and sixty dollars cash, or one thousand dollars in county warrants, and recommend to purchase the same for nine hundred and eighty dollars; four hundred and ninety dollars cash, and four hundred and ninety dollars in warrants. Adopted.
The records show no further action in the matter until the June session of the board, 1878. The following entry was then made, from which it is gathered that more land had been required and its purchase authorized by the board of supervisors :
Comes now W. D. Blackburn, committee on poor farm, and reports that on April 23, 1878, he purchased of John S. Boyd, for Taylor county, to be added to the poor farm of said county, the northeast quarter of section 29, township 69, range 33, containing 173.51 acres at fifteen dollars per acre. Adopted.
It subsequently became necessary to add to the buildings on the poor farm, and the proper committee was appointed, which reported at the January term of 1881 as follows :
To the honorable Board of Supervisors of Taylor county, Iowa.
GENTLEMEN :- I have the honor to submit the following report, as chairman of the building committee appointed by the board of supervisors for the purpose of building a house and barn on the Taylor county poor farm, and a jail in the town of Bedford :
On August 14, 1880, the committee contracted with R. H. Delmege to build a house and barn, to correspond with plans and specifications submitted by W. K.
J. H. Dougherty Sheriff
A. D. Nye County Treasurer
T. M. Dougherty County Attorney
TV. H. Lake County Auditor

HISTORY OF TAYLOR COUNTY
Ball, for the sum of four thousand, nine hundred and seventeen dollars, the house to cost four thousand, one hundred and twenty-seven dollars and barn to cost seven hundred and ninety dollars.
On December 14th the committee accepted the house and barn and paid the contract price, four thousand, nine hundred and seventeen dollars and two hun- dred and sixty dollars and fifty-one cents for additional work done on house and barn not specified in plans and specifications, making a total cost of both buildings of five thousand, one hundred and seventy-seven dollars and fifty-one cents.
W. P. SHERWOOD, Chairman Building Committee.
Additional improvements have been made from year to year in the way of barns and other outbuildings. The house has been entirely remodeled, and as recent as last year an addition was built, on account of the increased number of inmates. The farm comprises a half section and is one of the most valuable in the county. James Templeton is the present steward and his report, which may be seen in the financial report of the county, will give a fair idea of the management of Taylor county's home for the needy.
