              <text>Photograph of a building believed to be an early structure associated with the Jackson County Poor Farm. The image depicts a two-story brick institutional building with arched windows and a central chimney. The photograph appeared in the December 11, 1985 “Today” section of the Southern Illinoisan in an article titled “Poor farm: Grim bit of history” by Grover Brinkman. The article caption described the structure as a “poor house” that once housed indigent residents of the county before the building was abandoned and later demolished. The exact date of the photograph and the precise construction phase of the building are unknown.</text>
