Applications held
over to 1 May 1900 session:
Oliver Crossett
John Jackson
Bert Tribe
Daniel Macumber
The Crossett case is exciting
much interest in
Middleton Township, where the tavern is situated.
There was a petition signed by some 150 people
that the license
should not be issued.
On the other hand, Crossett is backed by some
of
the most influential people of his neighborhood.
G. W. Wells, Q.C.,
appeared for the petitioners
and W. A. Dowler for Crossett.
A lot of
witnesses were heard, but the Board laid
its final decision over
until May.
