At the request of Mr Dixon, the title of his house, Kakaramea Hotel, was changed to that of Wharncliife Hotel. At the conclusion of the proceedings, ■ the"Chairman (Major Turner) said .that though no complaints had been openly made, manj’ were from time to time made by'travellers, as to the accommodation afforded by some houses. The Court therefore would suggest that each licensed house, should keep a visitors’ hook, in which they could enter any complaints that they had to make, and that this book should be produced at each licensing day. They would thus have the opportunity of bringing anything before the Court, without being compelled to attend. This concluded the business, and the Court then adjourned.
