To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, those of Buchanan, Jackson, and Pettis counties and St. Louis city, send their sick prisoners to the city hospital. The jailer of the Osage county jail reports that he has sick prisoners cared for in private families. Seven jails, according to the reports, are pro- vided with special cells or apartments for sick prison- ers. This latter plan is to be especially commended for rural jails ; where the sick prisoner cannot be sent to a hospital, the jail should always be provided with an apartmen...t which may be used for the sick. Of the eighty jails but twenty-four have any sort of religious service for the prisoners. In all except two or three of these the services seem to be held only oc- casionally. The jails seem entirely destitute of other moral or reformatory influences, except that about a dozen sheriffs and jailers report that they enforce upon their prisoners a rigid discipline and methodical rules of living. In conclusion, it might be well to quote at length from the report of one investigator as to the conditions which he found in one county jail.
