No fresh licences were granted last year. Two of the above,
in the parish of Fulham, viz.: those held by Messrs. Groves,
McLean & Co., and Timothy Brosman, were granted last April.
In both of these cases your Board opposed the applications.
In that of Messrs. Groves and Co., it was my opinion that the
situation of the shed was such that it was totally unfit to be
licenced. It would be impossible to find a more unsuitable
situation, or one in which the presence of a cow-shed would be
more detrimental to the health of the surrounding inhabitants.
In the other case the licence was opposed by your Board on the
grounds that the usual regulations had not been complied with.
The Bench, however, for some unaccountable reasons, granted
both of the licences in these cases. In the one case they decided
that the situation was unobjectionable for the purpose of a cowshed
and in the other case that the usual regulations, with the exception
of one which the applicant had not adopted, were unnecessary.
Although he had not complied with this regulation which they
admitted to be necessary, they granted the licence, and simply
