Fourteenth Biennial Report of the
Board of State Commissioners of Public Charities
of the State of Illinois
Presented to the Governor December 1, 1896


         [p. 90]
         
         DuPAGE COUNTY
         
         - Jail -
         
         The jail is a modern structure, with separate quarters
       for the insane, and it would be easy with an ordinary 
       number of prisoners to keep them quite apart from each
       other if desired.
       
         The auxilliary board reports 14 prisoners, all male,
       on June 30, 1896. 10 were awaiting trial, of whom 4
       were boys under 16; 1 was serving sentence, 1 sentenced
       to penitentiary, 2 were city prisoners.
