641.05 RECORD OF INMATES; RETURN TO COURT.
Every sheriff shall, at the expense of the county, maintain a permanent record of all persons
committed to any jail under the sheriff's charge. It shall contain the name of every person
committed, by what authority, residence, date of commitment, and, if for a criminal offense, a
description of the person, when and by what authority liberated, and, in case of escape, the time
and manner thereof. At the opening of each term of district court the sheriff shall make a certified
transcript therefrom to such court, showing all cases therein not previously disposed of. Every
sheriff who neglects or refuses to so report shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor.
