He was from Roumania (sic), married, barely understood English, and arrived in the Colony of Hong Kong circa May 1885 with sufficient funds to seek a licence of the Star Hotel from its then present landlord Mr Frederick Asmus Marthin Linde in 164 Queen's Road Central. He had previously run a public house in Roumania.
The granting of the licence was refused on account of him being a stranger in the Colony of Hong Kong and was thus unable to furnish satisfactory documentation to the Justices' satisfaction to attest to his good character to hold such a licence.
