ROYAL MASONIC INSTITUTION FOR GIRLS .

HHHE Quarterly Court was held on Saturday , 27 th ult ., ¦* ¦ at Freemasons' Tavern . Bro . Horace Brooks Marshall , CO ., P . O . Treasurer , Treasurer of the Institution ,

presided . A large number of brethren attended . After the Secretary ( Bro . Hedges ) had read the minutes of last Quarterly Court , the General Committee ' s minutes were read . Bro . Perceval , who had given notice of motion " in

the event of the recent addition to Law 55 being confirmed

to add the following rider , viz .: ' That this clause shall not apply in the case of a child whose father was a Life Governor of the Institution at the time of his death , ' " withdrew the same , and gave notice of motion for the Court in January next , in the following words : —

A girl shall not be eligible for election unless the father , if living , has been a subscribing member to a Lodge , or Lodges , for seven years . If the father be dead , he must have been a subscribing member to a Lodge for three years . But should deatb , or permanent incapacity ,

occasioned by paralysis , blindness , fire , shipwreck , or other calamity , have occurred within three years of his initiation , this rule does not apply , providing , nevertheless , that at the time of such occurrence the father was a subscribing member . "

Bro . C . H . Webb seconded . Before proceeding to the election , the Chairman said he was sorry that after the munificence of the brethren at the last Festival

April election the alterations would be completed , and that by next October , if not in April , the remainder of the

the Institution could not admit more than 9 girls out of 62 candidates on the list . The could not do more than the limits of the Institution would allow . Every part of the building was occupied , but they hoped that at the next

candidates would be admitted . There were , however , four candidates on that day ' s list , Nos . 3 , 4 , 11 , and 52 , whose last chance it was ; that day was with them now or never . Ho hoped the brethren would support them . Anxious

to discharge his duty he should reserve his votes to assist last application cases . Bro . Henry Smith , D . P . G . M . West Yorkshire , pointed out that it was an utter impossibility to admit more children . The building

was already over-crowded . Tho Chairman went on to say that , although at these half-yearly elections a certain number of candidates had to go away , yet when tho building was increased they hoped to take in all the rest

of the 63 candidates . Bro . J . A . Birch , East Lancashire , said the Chairman had left out of calculation altogether the new candidates who would apply between now and the

April election . The Chairman contended that old candidate 8 stood a bettor chance than tho new ones . If the friends of the children he had named would use their exertions to secure

their election , the Committee had reasonable expectations that the whole of the others would be elected in April or October next . He went on to say that he considered it an outrage that people should put clown candidates without

intending to do their best to secure their return . Bro . J . A . Birch protested against such an expression . East Lancashire had a candidate , which it did not intend to carry that day , but hoped' to do so at a future date . After other

brethren had expressed themselves the election of 9 out of 62 girls was proceeded with . The result , so far as the successful ones are concerned , will appear in our Advertisement Columns . We give the list of all unsuccessful candidates , with the number of votes accredited to each .
