Mr. L. V. Bean,
City Yanager,
City of Paducah,
Dear Mr. Bean:
Commissioners Hannin, Lockwood and myself made an inspection of
the City Jail today and find the following conditions to exist:
That the Burlap bunks have been removed, and there are certain
ragged filthy mattresses in the womensT ward and in one section
of the jail set aside for men. General appearance of the Jail
presents a very unsanitary condition.
Many complaints have been made by prisoners as to the unsanitary
cond'_iion, and the Planks that they are required to sleep on.
Judge Corneilson has expressed his opinion that because of the
existing condition, he dislikes very much to commit prisoners
to the jail.
As the Jail is under your direction, the three members above
? named request that you give attention to this matt,_r.
NYours very truly,
ii
