advisable, to revoke the original license and issue a duplicate license in
lieu thereof, and upon so receiving said duplicate the said assignee or
pledgee shall have all the rights and privileges conferred upon holders of

issued, who shall cease to traffic in liquors during the term for which such
license was issued, and who shall surrender such license to the Board of
