Provincial Grand Lodge Of West Yorkshire.

PROVINCIAL GRAND LODGE OF WEST YORKSHIRE .

ON Wednesday last , under the banner of the Lodgo of Harmony , No . 275 , tho annnal meeting of the West Yorkshire Prov . Grand Lodge took place in tho Masonic Hall , Huddersfield , under the presidency of the Eight Worshipful Provincial Graud Master Sir Henry Edwards , Bart ., assisted by Deputy Prov . G . M . Brother Tew , and a large array of Prov . Grand Officers . Only six Lodges out of sixty-six iu the Province were unrepresented , the attendance

numbering about 250 . Tho customary salutations having been tendered to the Provincial Grand Master and his Deputy , Sir Henry Edwards , Bart ., Prov . Grand Master , after congratulating tho brethren upon tho progress and success of Masonry in the Province said : — " When last I occupied this chair , it was for a few brief moments , on tho occasion of tho assembly of the brethren to render

a tribute of respect to the memory of a virtuous brother and excellent Mason , and to pay our last homage to departed worth . No ono who looks around this hall can fail to bo struck with the portraits of many administrators in the Craft in this Province , and how well yon have invoked the painter's skill to adorn your walls with tho likenesses of the rulers and governors of our Order . Let us imitate

their virtues , ancl follow in their footsteps , and practise the lofty principles of these build- rs and founders of our institutions , whose resemblances you have beeu pleased to perpetuate with such fidelity . Moreover , when I examine the roll of this Lodge , I find the names of a large number of Past Masters , the majority of whom have beeu thought worthy at various times to hold different offices in this

Provincial Grand Lodge . No brother who reads tho names of thoso who form your list of Past Masters , no one who notes the record of their services , can doubt that the Masonic work they havo accomplished has been done for this Lodge nnder the most able guidance , and has been of a thoroughly solid and satisfactory character . Tho latest illustration of your principles is the generous contribution of

nearly £ 90 to the " Bentley Shaw Memorial Fund Presentation , " and £ 50 to the " Aged Freemasons' and Widows' Annuity Fund ;" and further , the Worshipful Master has set a good example by making himself a Steward at the annual Festivals of tho Girls' and Boys' Institutions , accompanied by a donation to each of these Masonic Schools . This Lodge of Harmony is , as it were , the centre

of a Masonic system . Where we meet to-day we aro surrounded by other Lodges of planetary brilliancy . Thus wo seo with what sue . cess Freemasonry has ramified and increased until this part of West Yorkshire is covered with Masonic Institutions , after the same pattern as onr central institution , the Grand Lodge of England ; and the importance which is represented by the brethren and friends

I see gathered around me ; and by the lists of tho Lodges , which testify to the number of novitiates who , under your auspices , aro entering Freemasonry and the world of geometric science and of moral culture . Since wc met under the Friendly Lodge , land my Deputy , Brother Tew , attended the Festival on tho 12 th February of tho Aged Freemasons and Widows , in the Freemasons' Half .

Wo supported our gallant fneud and neighbour the Provincial Grand Master of East Lancashire , when tho largest sum collected within those walls was announced ; and , in consequence , at tho meeting of tho Committee of this Institution , the following day , it , g ; ive my Deputy and our Secretary , who were present , the satisfaction to acquaint me that the number of vacancies

for widows was increased from six to sixteen . ( Applause . ) As the chairman of our charity will shortly inform us , this Province has ono widow and two aged men candidates for our sympathies . This augmentation of admission will give our voting power and our efforts a far higher prospect of success for these worthy but unfortunate claimants on our benevolence . Our chairman and

vicechairman have laboured earnestly for us , and will do their best at tho elections . We hope their efforts will be rewarded with success . When wo last assembled at Barnslny we offered our sympathies to Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen on the death of her daughter her Eoyal Highness the I ' rinccss Alice . To-day it is our duty to express our felicitations towards the sumo royal lady on her acquisition of a roval diiughter-iii-hiw . Hid lioyal Hitrhness the Duke of Connaujtht
