terminated with the Tyler ' s toast . A moro thoroughly enjoyable meeting from beginning to end we have but seldom experienced ; and we cannot close this report without a meed of praise to the musical brethren , all members of the Lodge , who contributed so largely to the success of this social gathering . Under the direction of the I . P . M Bro . Knight-Smitb , somo charming solos , duets and glees were rendered in most perfect style , Bros . Evans , Martin , Reynolds , and
Large especially distinguishing themselves . Bros . Knight-Smith and Cantle sang the duet " Excelsior , " and in several glees , with such musical taste and effect as conld scarcely be surpassed , and it would be no exaggeration to say that many so-called " Grand Concerts" have lacked that amount of talent ancl execution which on this occasion wero accessory only to an ordinary Masonio meeting . Wo shall hope to attend another Installation Meeting of the Ivy Lodge , No .
