fact not so great: for supposing (what is scarce
supposable) that the Members of a majority of such
a Board should be so far led astray by privatecriminal
emnity and malice as to join concurr in
expelling from his business an individual without
reproach, especially an individual of the a person of that degree
of respectability supposed, there would at any rate
be thean authority superior to the Board, (viz: the Treasury Person
or Secretary of State to whose orders it would be subject) by to whom in
a case this extraordinary a complaint could hardly
fail to be entertained: whereas were the great
Tavern keeper to experience the refusal be refused a licence byfrom the Justices,
there is no superior authority from which by whose the Justices
could reverse an order to grant the licence.
