Mr.. Sherman was born In Manasquan,
and went into the lumber business In

erns & Sherman. In 1870 he removed to
Bristol, Pa, where he continued in the
lumber and mill business under the firm

The first meeting of the Excise Board
for the granting of licenses was held in
the Council Chamber last week. There
were fifteen hotel licenses and two whole
sale licenses granted by the Board. The
fee wasfxed at $500 for hotels and $3.50 for
Wholesale licenses.
Rev. ]. Madison Hare, the pastor of the
First Baptist Church, who is one of the
members of the Board, entered protest
on technical grounds in every case with
the exception of three, and he voted
against all of the applications.
While a dispute was in progress regard
ing the signatures appended to the applca-
ton of John O'Neil, Mr.. Hare claiming
that four of the signatures had been writ
ten by the same hand, Dennis Murray, a
brother-in-law of O'NeiPs; stepped to the
rail and stated that the allegation as to
the names being written by the same
hand was true, and he was the man that
had written them. The Board immediate
ly postponed action on this license until a
future meeting.
AS Mr.. Hare had taken exceptions and
ordered them recorded, the hotel men
were uneasy lest there should be a suit
brought in the courts. and thus they
would lose their licenses Several of
them stepped up to the clerks desk I'M
mediately after the meeting and paid the
fee and secured the coveted licenses.
Mr.. Hare will not reveal his intended
action as yet, but states that he has good
grounds to carry them all into the courts
