Stella Thomas, 14 Commercial street. Dear Madam:- At a meeting of the Board of Commissioners held November 29th, 1916, a resoluticn was adopted setting Wednesday, December 6th, 1.9916, at 11 o'clock A.M. for hearing on the recommendation of the Chief of Police that your license to conduct a rooming house at 14 Commercial street be revoked, and in accordance therewith you are hereby notified to be present in the Council Chamber, City & County Building at the hour above mentioned to show cause why your rooming house license at 14 Commercial street should not be revoked. I am enclosing herewith copy of report from the Chief of Police in this matter. Respectfully, Enc. • • C 0 P Y . November 28th, 1916. Hon. Board of City Commissioners- City £; County Building, City. Gentlemen:- Sometime ago a license was granted to Stella Thomas, a colored woman, to conduct a rooming house at number 14 Commercial stret, upon her assurance that it was a rooming house that would be run for men only and that there would be no other women about the premises- but on the night of Friday, Idoberober 24th, officers from this department succeeded in purchasing beer at this address and on Saturday, the 25th instant, we elezed and took into our po• session sixteen pints of beer and arrested several disorderly persons there. At the time this raid was ria:je, of the inmates made an indecent proposal to Officer Williams who was about to arrest her. This of course was dune before she realized he was an officer. I would therefore request that th@ license previously granted to this woman be revoked. Respectfully, J. PARLEY WHITE, Chief of Police.
