i'll that neighborhood. He filed a general
| remonstranCe.

and presented number of letters from

| that the applicant is u proper person to
keep saloon.
| Richard Kavanaugh applies for license
| TO Keep saloon at Rising Sun, in the same
neighborhood as the one in which Ellwood
asks permission to conduct saloon. Mr..
| Prickett said this is a sparsely settled COM
| munity, and neither OF the saloons are
needed. The license was turned down at
the last term of court on the ground that
the applicant had sold liquor on Sundays.
Mr.. Rodney stated that the applicant
| Webster Blakeley, had been turned down
| at the last term on the testimony of man
| who said he purchased liquor ON Sunday,
He now had witness to prove that the
law had never been violated. He read
| letters from James Mcintyre, James
| Deery, Thomas Stirling, Thomas Harrity,
the Rev. Peter Donoghy, George Mcintyre,
John Stewart, and others who said she
place is u necessity

of Margaret Murine, at Lord and Church
| streets, was withdrawn, and the license
was therefore granted.

Prickett in the case of john J. Dougherty,
| proprietor of the Delaware House. were
returned by the sheriff non est and the
application will therefore be granted with

Moore owed Henry Q. Robinson certain
sum of money at the time of the K. r
Robinson & Company failure. When the
