32 feet on Market street by 26 feet wide, north and south. In 1868 a thick layer of cement grout was placed under the jail floor to prevent prisoners escaping through the floor. On the north side were ventilating hol^s about six inches square, the air passing under the floor of the iron ■•box'"— but for some reason this ventilatton was a failure. There was a double door in the east end of the jail opening into the jailer's office, a barred iron door next the jail and a wooden door next the offi...ce.
Also a "peep hole" through which the jailer in his office could watch the prisoners. There was a window in the west end opening into the stockade. The interior arrangements of the jail are well described in a report of George Perrin Davis, Chairman of the Com- mittee on Public Buildings of the Board of Supervisors to that body, December 4, 1879, condemning its further use. "The jail is an iron box in which is a hall 30 feet long. 10 feet wide and 8 feet high, with five cells on each side 6 by 7 feet with bunks for two persons.
