I have examined the accompanying Ordinance intituled
An Ordinance to provide for the licensing and control of places
where persons are lodged for hire,
and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to the
Governor's Instructions.

The general object of the Ordinance is to provide powers for
the licensing and control of hotels, boarding houses and all places
where persons are lodged for hire and where some domestic service is
rendred to the persons so lodged. These are all included in the
Ordinance under the generic term "boarding house",
