LICENSES OPPOSED.
The application of George Pugsley for the Travellers'' Rest, Taita, was opposed by Inspector Atchinson, on the ground that house was dirty, with windows broken, and was generally out of repair. He was willing to withdraw his opposition, if the applicant promised to put his house in a proper state.
Mr. Pugsley promised to do so.
The Chairman, in granting the license, said they would not license more drinking shops, or any houses which were not actually places of accommodation for travellers. If the applicant failed to perform his promise, his license would be cancelled at the next quarterly meeting.
