                            HILLSDALE

      We visited the poor-house in this county in company with
   Hon. Daniel L. Pratt.  It is a frame building, on a pleasant
   farm of 200 acres, near the village of Hillsdale.  Opposite to
   the main building there is a small frame house, in a miserable
   condition, occupied by the male paupers.  The character of
   this building was such that it could not well be kept in a
   decent condition.  Aside from this, the premises were clean,
   neat, and orderly.  There were several insane persons in the
   house, some of whom are violently so, and are required to be
   kept constantly confined.
