Alamance County Jail Empty and New County Home a Success, July 5, 1924

Jail in Graham Reported Empty

Burlington, July 4—Alamance County jail is empty. For the first time in about 20 years, there is nobody in jail. The County Welfare Board Monday visited the jail and found this to be the fact. They also visited the new County Home, just completed south of Graham, and found things in splendid shape and a joy to the eye. The building was constructed with an eye single to the comfort, convenience and health and well-being of the inmates and the Board is very much gratified with the manner in which the inmates are arranged and with their pleasant surroundings.
