Fourteen were available for seven days and thirty-eight for six days, a decrease of one. No licensed persons were convicted. Nine- teen persons were proceeded against for drunkeness and fifteen convicted, compared with twenty-seven in the previous year. Eighteen occasional licences were granted and three Iicences transferred. there were no applications for new licences. Objections were made to the renewal of the licences of the Lloyd Jack Arms and Gambia Inn. A petition signed by seventy-five people was read objecting to two public-houses at Pennant.
