1860

Census Taker's Remarks

There has been no disease in this county in the form of a malady. The soil of this county is principally lime, so in regard to the water, and the earth is somewhat noted for its caverns, which are quite large, beautiful and remarkable. The seasons in regard to rain, have heretofore been generally good, but this year have almost entirely failed.
