 In view of considerable uncertainty | and transformation which is current l regarding the right to receive and distribute liquors in the town of l Stafford, we respectfully request that you publish the following copy of l the Statutes of the State of Oonnectl. | cut -
 Section 2647. Delivery in Town Deemed a Sale Therein. Whenever | any town shall have voted against the granting of licenses for the sale of | spirituous and intoxicating liquors, the delivery by the vendor or his agent, within the limits of said town, of any spirituous or intoxicating liquors, shall be deemed sale of such liquors within said town, although the contract for the sale of such liquors be made outside the limits of said town.
 Yours respectfully,
 Stafford Law and Order League. To the Editor of The Press.
 Dear Sir :-In your issue of Nov. II report was given of my remon. strance, in behalf of certain petition CTS, before the county comm issioners against the issuance of license to Will. liam J. Bowler, to sell spirituous and toxicating liquors at Crystal Lake. The report was eminently fair, but it omitted one very important matter, the Hamlet" of the play The chief basis of the remonstrance was not the petition, although that should upon the law of the state of Connec- ticut. Believing that there is general ignorance of this law, as evidenced by the unwillingness of many no-license voters to sign the petition, as we'll as by the attitude of several citizens who thought it was "none of our business'' to interfere 1 with a license outside of the town, beg leave to quote that portion of the law upon which the remonstranoe was based. '' nor shall license be granted in tkose parts of a license town where it is apparent that the | party applying for it is seeking to ob- tain patronage from an adjoining mo- license town; and in such cases per- sons in the adjoining town shall have the right to remonstrate against the granting of such license, and the | county commissioners shall give the | same consideration to such remon. strance as if made by persons residing in the town wherein such license is asked for ' Sec 2647, Revised Statutes of State of Conn, 1902. as amended by Chapter POO, Acts of 1907. It will be seen that citizens of Stafford, under this law, have the right to remonstrate, and that the county commissioners should give the same consideration to the remonstrance as if made by citizens of Ellington. Whether they did or not. it is not for me to say. Yours respectfully, Harry Adams Haraev
