Ordered— That the communication from the Local Government Board, on the subject o f the appointment o f an Analyst for this County, be laid before the next Presentment Sessions for the County at Large, with a view o f arranging a salary and adver tising for candidates. Having before us three communications, viz., 14th October, 1875, 22nd November, 1875, and 2nd December, 1875, addressed by the Commissioner o f Valuation to the County Treasurer, relating to a proposed alteration in the manner of furnishing the Valuation Lists of this County for the Applotting of the County Bate, and by which, if carried out, the course heretofore adopted o f furnishing new copies each year of the Valuation to this County would b9 discontinued—in favour o f one copy in each three years— on which the revision for latter to two years would have to be made. W e have to remark upon same— COUNTY SURVEYOR’S REPORT. To the Grand Jury of the County of Louth assembled at Spring Assizes, 1876. G entlem en , The number of miles of roads under repairs and maintenance during the past year, was 580 ; the cost of all road works, £10,616 ; and the amount re-presented in aid of the levy £432. The details are given in the accompanying tables, the second of which contains a comparison of the cost for each of the last three years. An order made by the Grand Jury, at Spring Assizes, 1875, that the contractors for maintenance of roads should lodge their applications for payment within a month after each Assizes, was not complied with in a single instance, after last Summer. This caused the labour in my office, immediately before the road Sessions, to be again harassing, as there are altogether about 323 undis charged road works on the face of the books (the greater number of which should have been previously certified for, if completed.) The increasing traffic on roads of this County is yearly be coming more apparent, especially in the vicinity of the Port-towns. The past season was unusually severe on roads of heavy traffic. The contractors were also generally behind in supplying the specified quantities of bioken stones for Winter repairs; and the usual work of making admeasurements was more than doubled from this cause. The difficulty of getting the required quantities of broken stones, especially when not provided for early in the season, has led to the partial introduction of a stone breaking machine in the neighbour hood of Dundalk. Unless the value of labour diminishes, and be applied early, with more foresight by contractors, the use of such machines will probably become general in a few years. On this point I may observe, that contracts for all roads of heavy traffic should begin at Spring, to allow time to collect and put out broken stones for the next Winter’s repairs. There is another advantage in this commencement to contractors. The available funds are ready to make advances with, before much outlay has been incurred; some few contractors, however, cannot be got to prepare in time for their work, at any season, Louth County Archives That we approve o f the present Valuation Books not having been returned to the Valuation Office for Bevision purposes by our Secretary on his responsibility as suggested by the Commis sioner of Valuation, such copy being by law required to be re tained in his office for the information of, and reference to, by the Ratepayers of the County. That the mode proposed by the Commissioner of Valuation in his communication, 2nd December, 1875, for the alterations made in the Bevisions of the Valuation o f the County, whereby such alterations are intended to be furnished on separate sheets with the view o f having same worked into the Original Valuation Books by our Secretary (a course never hitherto adopted) is, in our opinion, highly objectionable, and is a duty which should be discharged by the Commissioner o f Valuation alone, and not by any Local Official. That, in our opinion, no change should be made in the system hitherto adopted of furnishing New Valuation Lists of our County for Bating purposes each year, and we have to request the Com missioner of Valuation to continue to furnish same to this County. 5 4756 15 7 11 3246 £ 893 98 787 337 695 433 Barony o f Ardee ...........

Four works for repairs and maintenance on two important lines of road were not contiacted for at Sessions. There were others, but of no public moment. The contract system is an excellent servant, but a bad master. It is therefore necessary now to present the sums sanctioned at Sessions, for the repairs of these roads, and for the payment of persons who shall be employed, including any necessary staff. In Clare, 153 miles of roads are thrown on the Sur veyor’s hands, which involve the payment at the rate of £340 a year to overseers alone, yet the works are carried on within the amounts presented ; the like state of things exists in other Counties. With reference to neglected contracts, I shall hand in <i return of some which it is necessary to carry out, wholly or in part. If so, provision must be made for immediate payments, on the Surveyor’s Certificates, to persons employed, for in such cases new contractors can seldotn be got to come forward. It may not be out of place here to say, that between Assizes and AssizeB, if five shillings repaired an important road, the Surveyor cannot expend it unless previously presented to him ; and, after all, though defects of detail do exist which can easily be yet remedied, I believe the Grand Jury system, even as it stands, to be better than any other in existence, A S S IZ E S With some exceptions, including the streets of Dundalk, the County roads under contract continue in fair order, notw ithstanding the incessant rains. I shall lay before you a printed memorial directed by a C on tractor to the Cess payers of the Barony of Upper Dundalk. It is o f the same class as the anonymous placard referred to in my last R e p o r t ; but the real question hidden in the tissue of the allegation sis— have the specifications and sections attached to the contracts been com plied with ? I brought before you at last Assizes, the conduct of the Assistant who reported at first on these works, having som etim e previously thought it better to remove him to another D istrict.

Having enquired, on oath, fully into the memorials in con nexion with Contracts Nos. 301, 310, and 319, Spring W arrant, 1876, and having heard Counsel on behalf of" the Contractor, we are o f opinion that the specifications in the above contracts have not been carried out, either as regards quantity of stones, under pinning o f fences, and that these contracts are in an unfinished state. W e, therefore, consider our County Surveyor has exercised a wise discretion in withholding his Certificate, and we hereby re present the balances on these contracts to the County Surveyor to complete said works, under the Act 20 & 21 Vic , chap. 15. 77 COUNTY SURVEYOR’S REPORT, SUMMER ASSIZES, 1876. COUNTY SURVEYOR’S REPORT, To the Grand Jury of the County of Louth, assembled at Sum m er Assizes, 1876. to remedy. I would therefore suggest that the words “ To such Contractors for same as the County Surveyor shall certify for,” in that order, should be extended so as to stand, “ To such Contractors, artificers, or workmen, as may be duly certified by such Surveyor,” which are the words of theAct. For his own interests, if for no other, a Surveyor will always adopt the Contract system, when a suitable Contractor can be got, for any works placed temporarily in his charge to execute, that loss and hardship to the public may be prevented; but, as stated in my Report made to the Grand Jury, at Spring Assizes, 1858, on the first introduction of this Act, I cto not think the Surveyor is the proper party to receive the amounts of present ments and to make payments. In Clare, and elsewhere, this is done by the Secretary of the Grand Jury, according to the pay-sheets furnished and certified to him by the Surveyor, and for which the Secretary receives extra payment out of the presentments for the works themselves. I would not now however introduce this subject again, if it were not that soon after the last Assizes, I found my office enclosed in difficulties with reference to the works then given to me in charge, for execution in Dundalk and its vicinity, which in the interests of the public up till now I had only to cut my way through as best I could. There are some other points connected with the working powers of my office which I shall submit for your assistance and directions, when the regular business has been gone through. Louth County Archives G entlemen-, A short statement of the number of miles of roads under Contract, and their cost in past years, will be of use, in order to see more clearly the present fiscal condition of this County in connexion with works. In my report at Spring, 1862, I stated that in 1832, the number of miles repaired and maintained was 172, at a cost of 18i pence per perch In 1833, 181 at 14* pence per perch. In 1834, the year of the first introduction of the present Grand Jury Law, 168 miles at 19 pence per perch. In 1837, 222 miles at 12J pence. In 1841, 403 miles at 7* pence. In 1844, 471 miles at 9* pence. In 1847, the year of the famine, 203 miles at 10* pence. In 1851, 441 miles at 8* pence; and in 1855, 401 miles at 1Of pence. Becommencing with this last year, the returns up to the present, for each of the last twenty years, are given in whole numbers in the table appended to this Report; and also the total expenditure on all works, as made out by my clerk. An inspection of it will show that the rate of expenditure on repairs and maintenance was a maximum about the year 1860, when the cost went up to £18 8s per mile, and a minimum about the year 1871, when the rate of cost was reduced to £15 2s. per mile; since which time it has been again increasing, having been in the last year, £ 17 3s per mile. An Order of the Grand Jury, which has been latterly, for some years, on the Books, fetters my action in the proper execution of works placed in ray hands (under the Act 20 & 21 Vic., chap 15, eec. 2,) and in some cases renders it nugatory. Because this Order omits some part of Section 2, and limits its application to working by Conti actors only— a limitation which the Act itself was intended The roads under Contract are generally in good otder, but in Summer roads everywhere are so.

COUNTY SURYEYOR’S REPORT. To the Grand Jury of the County of Louth assembled at Spring Assizes, 1877. G en tlem en , . n The amount presented for works in this County in the past year was £11801 Is. 10d, and the amount levied only £11352 11s. 10d; the sum of £448 10s. 0d. having been re-pre sented in aid of the levy. The amount for each barony and all other necessary details are given in the tables attached formance will occur between due execution aud neglect, and a few hardened defaulters have to be counted &n. The omission of pro ceedings under the Act 19, 20, Vic., cap. 63, sec. 17, for more than a year made these fearless, but as the application of this Act to con tracts of maintenance was lately established by a decision in the Queen’s bench, I am again putting its provisions into operation with useful effect. In cases of proceedings against defaulters re quiring the order of the Grand Jury, some of which I referred to in my report at Summer, 1874, I am of opinion that omitting to institute and carry them out is a mistake and works badly. Two new applications for repairing old townland roads, never before under presentment, appear on the schedule. These properly come under the head of new roads. Grand Jury Act, secs. 27 and 55. When local contributions are given and presentments are sought as a rate in aid to such contributions they may be made with benefit to the neighbouring cess-payers, especially in an agricultural county ; but such roads should be properly constructed at first, and not less than 16 week wide. On this point, leading to increased mileage, I may observe that at the time of my appointment in 1840, there were only 380 miles of roads under presentments; there are now 567, including 47 miles of turnpike roads transferred to the county in 1858. There were four assistants in 1840 and three more on the turnpike roads: there are now altogether but three, while the work for each and myself is more than doubled. The tenders for contracts at Adjourned Sessions in five baronies were more than usual. In reality several of the tenders were merely covers to enable some one contractor to obtain the full price. Instances No. 3, Ardee, No. 1, Drogheda, No. 4, Lower Dundalk, No. 3, Ferrard, and No. 1, Louth. In the sixth barony, Upper Dundalk, however, there were only two contracts taken; and if there be no tenders now in the secretary’s hands, I would recommend the three leading roads only to be placed in my control under the Act 20 and 21, Vic. cap. 15. I shall report separately on the applica tions as they come before you, and all other matters given to me in charge. Louth County Archives ^ T h e Grand Jury at the last Spring Assizes consented to take up the repairs of the leading roads in the town of Jundalk, ftom the contractor who is a town officer, a n d > s sureties who are Town Commissioners, and then placed them in my charge. This has e to much extra work and annoyance in my office, partly from the change of front exhibited soon after by these persons. In June last, I refused to pay out of the funds placed at my disposal a sum of £100, the amount of a bill said to be due by three of the com missioners and the contractor, as I received no value. Since then, I have been unpleasantly spoken of, and obstructed in carrying on these woiks; and, as bearing on the subject, I beg to annex ®°P)®S of a few letters from a correspondence with the -Town ’ . eluding two from the Local Government Board. The scavenging or cleaning of the streets is especially the duty of the lown, and could be carried out most economically by the present commissioners and their officers (as such, and not in their private capacity) be coming the contractors for the ordinary repairs and cleaning with the Grand Jury, as was done formerly at a time when I acted as town^surve^or.s preBentments through the County were generally well kept in the past year, and fair/ 1.lowance^ “1e1C~®S^ e to contractors for the almost constant wet and heavy ramfa in the last four months, especially where lodgments o f ’^atei-took.placeai new springs burst up.

Referring to the circular from the Privy Council Office, Dublin Castle, dated 1st June, 1877, soliciting the opinion of the Grand Jury as to the remuneration to the Clerk of the Peace for carry ing into execution the Juries (Ireland) Acts— Resolved— That considering the smallness o f this County, we think One Shilling per name, on all names retained on the List o f the Clerks o f the Unions (including those exempted),^ a moderate remuneration to the Clerk o f the Peace for the duties performed by him under said Acts. Referring to our Order made at Spring Assizes, 1877, with regard to the Bridge proposed to be built by the Great Northern Railway Company (Ireland), over the Windmill Road, beside the Town o f Dundalk, and the correspondence of our Secretary, in compliance with said Order with the said Company— Ordered— That our Solicitor communicate with the Great Northern Railway Company (Ireland), with a view to having the 78 GRAND JURY ORDERS AT SUMMER ASSIZER, 1877. Inclinations to the Bridge such as will meet the approval o f our County Surveyor. Besolved— That a Deputation be appointed to wait on the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant to urge the justice o f inserting in the Prisons’ Bill (Ireland) provisions similar to that contained in the Bill for England, providing for repayment to a County for any adequate Prison accommodation in the excess o f its own requirements for the last five years which will be handed over to the central authority. C O U N TY S U R V E Y O R ’S R E PO R T. To the Grand Jury of the County of Louth assembled at Summer Assizes, 1877. Lieut.-Colonel Fortescue. W illiam Ruxton, Esq. John Murphy, Esq. G entlem en , Another new addition o f 1020 perches— at a cost o f £892 10s.— to your County roads, in the Barony o f Ferrard, was Louth County Archives W illiam Woolsey, Esq. sanctioned at the last Road Sessions, and comes before you to be certified. The application is for repairs, but should properly have been for a new road, as forming, widening, fencing, and drainage, including gullets, have to be provided for to some ex ten t; and, it is right, before a new addition to the mileage, at a very heavy expense, shall be placed on the County, that the opinions o f two different sets o f Cesspayers should be taken by having the work certified. There are some legal questions, how ever, arising from the form o f the application under Sections 27, 50, and 55 o f the Grand Jury Act, which it would be well now to settle. Since last Assizes I expended about £90 out of a sum o f £223 then placed at my disposal for repairing and strengthening Car lingford Pier, which was very much shaken during last Winter. Until after a year’s experience o f the effects o f the works just completed I do not intend any further expenditure unless espe cially called for. A great deal o f money might be thrown away unless a tentative proceeding be adopted. I have been trying to obtain a Dredger for cleaning out the berths along the quay, but failed, the resources being too limited. 80 81 COUNTY SURVEYOR’ S REPORT, SUMMER ASSIZES, 1877. The prosecution o f some defaulting Contractors ordered last Spring, since carried out, and resulting in convictions in each case will, I believe, do good, as the omission in other cases for some years lately past did harm. Owing to the great increase o f work, and the greater expense Acconnt of Expenditure on Works in Connty Louth by County Surveyor up to 18th June, 1877. and difficulty in getting it done, I must ask your permission to appoint an extra Assistant, or, in fact, to restore the number o f Assistants to what it was thirty-seven years ago, which was then reduced at my request. The roads under repairs continue, generally, in good order. I am, Gentlemen, Y our obedient servant, JO H N N E V IL L E , County Surveyor.
