Rand Jury Blasts Aldermen For Petty Actions
A May grand jury criticized aldermen and justices of the peace for sending minor cases to oral courts. The jury recommended action to prevent petty cases from reaching the grand jury and cited a $1.50 taxi defrauding case as an example. Samuel Meyers, Waterford merchant and foreman, said such matters should be settled by aldermen to avoid county costs. The report also noted Erie County Tuberculosis Hospital conditions as sanitary and well kept.
