met, members saying they knew moth

(Mr. Ali presiding), moved to amend
by granting license to John Robrccht,
at the ST Charles Hotel, reciting th9
situation there, which, he said, was
that Henry Robrecht had the license
for the house, while John Robrecht

fer the remainder of the year, and
Henry would be entitled to refund
