the Chairman remarked that the licensee, John Borrett, did not reside at
the house and no licence could be granted, except to the permanent

representative of the owners advised that steps were being made to
transfer the licence to Mr. Borrett's son, Arthur.
Decision to grant licence deferred to the next sitting.
