voke any license issued under the provisions of this Act, pro-
vided before revoking any license the State Board of Health
shall have given written notice to the licensee affected, stating
that it contemplates the revocation of the same and giving its
reasons therefor. Such notice shall appoint a time of hearing
before said State Board of Health and shall be sent by regis-
tered mail to the licensee. On the day of the hearing, the licensee
may present such evidence to the said State Board of Health
as he deems fit, and after hearing all the evidence the State
Board of Health shall decide the question in such a manner- as;
to it appears just and right. Any licensee whose license is re-
voked or suspended may appeal within ten days after such hear-
ing before the said State Board of Health to the Circuit Court
for the county in which said cannery is situated or to the Bal-
timore City Court, if said cannery is situated in Baltimore City,.
and the decision of such court shall be final. Provided, how-
ever, that the revocation of any license given under the authority
of this Act shall not become effective until fifteen days after
the date set for a hearing before the State Board of Health, as
provided for in this section; and in the event of an appeal from
the decision of the State Board of Health after such hearing,
the revocation of any license shall not become effective until the
decision of the Circuit Court for the county or of the Baltimore
City Court has been rendered against such person, firm or cor-
poration taking such appeal.
