Whelan appeared at the meeting in favor of her application, and no other persons appeared for or against. She stated that she wanted to have a tea room and overnight tourists and intended to -serve breakfast for them. She has three rooms that can be let to tourists. The house that she owns, was formerly -the Warren Dais property and is almost opposite the Smith Bell Farm. She has two or three other small rooms that she did not intend to rent inasmuch as she f^lt that if she operated a tea room she may need these rooms for the help. She wanted to have a special lobster and chicken dinner. She already put up a sign advertising to accommodate -tourists just to see how much business she could get on that road. She has not as yet had any business. She purchased the house on or about April 15th of this year from Mr. Neil McIntosh. She made quite extensive repairs to the house inside to make it more convenient but she has not added anything and did not intend to add on any more rooms.
