"Re Lawliss. On 10th ult, Mr Stanford, S.M., applied to the police for report as to Lawliss' character and fitness to hold a license. Inspector Emerson wrote that he could not express an opinion, and that Lawliss had been discharged from the force for immoral conduct. In consequence of this report, I understand Mr Stanford refused to issue a certificate under Section 12, sub-section 2. Alcoholic Liquors Sales Control Act. Inspector Emerson is, I believe, at Galatea, and there are no means of communicating with him. Please instruct what you wish me to do. I would suggest your writing to Mr Stanford.
