Inspector's reports on conditions at the State Industrial School, 1902-1906.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78463193

This volume contains nine carbon typescript reports of inspections of the State Industrial School by a State Board of Charities inspector. The State Charities Law (1896) outlined the State Board of Charities' duties to inspect correctional facilities and reformatories. Inspections were not made at regular intervals, but institution officials were aware of the inspections in advance and usually had displays or activities (eg. fire drills) planned.
