Excerpt from Report of Committee on State Prison: Submitted February 25th, 1857 Mr. Speaker: Your Committee to whom was confided the investigations concerning the State Prison, beg leave to Report: Five of our members, consisting of Messrs. Rogers, Shuler, Edwards, Jessup and McKune, were directed by resolution of this Assembly to proceed to the State Prison at Point San Quentin, and make personal examination into the affairs of our Penitentiary, with full power to send for persons and papers and to administer oaths. That sub-committee, on the 27th day of January last, proceeded to make their investigations. They found the Prison under the control of James M. Estell, under a contract dated March 26th, 1856, with R. M. Anderson, G. W. Whitman, and Henry Bates, Board of State Prison Commissioners, and a supplementary agreement made April 3d, same year, between same parties. The Act of 1856, (Session Laws, p. 48, ) under which that contract was made, provides for the making of such contract and authorizes the Commissioners to pledge the State to pay a price for keeping the prisoners, not exceeding $15,000 per month; the Act also appropriates the sum of $15,000 per month, or such sum per month less than that amount, in accordance with the contract to be made by the Board of Commissioners. By the terms of the contract, the State Prison property, consisting of thirty-six acres of land, prison, and houses, and all improvements - also all shipping, vessels, boats, fixtures, implements, tools, furniture, stock, and all other property of the State, connected with the Prison, with the labor of the prisoners, were farmed out to Mr. Estell for the term of five years; and the Commissioners agreed, on behalf of the State, to pay $10,000 per month for the safe keeping of the prisoners, in addition to the lease of said property. By the Act referred to, the Board of Commissioners were required to perform certain duties in attending to the Police of the Prison. They were required to visit the Prison from time to time, and examine into its government, and from personal observation and conference with the Directors, to change, alter or abolish such rules and regulations as, in their judgment, might be found necessary.
