Hannibal Eyes County Detention Home Plan
City officials led by Mayor John K Mills push for a Marion county Detention Home in Hannibal. They propose buying the Plowman estate brick dwelling on Church street for 2500 dollars, with 1000 dollars for improvements, totaling about 2580 dollars, if the county provides half funding and support. The county court, meeting at Palmyra, shows sentiment and readiness to cooperate, potentially expediting the project. The plan hinges on state law requiring counties to maintain such homes and on county willingness to share costs.
