Worshipful Master ( Bro . the Rev . Thomas Lloyd P . P . G . Chap . Staffs ) proposed that a hearty vote of thanks be recorded on the minutes of the Lodge to their Right Worshipfal Provincial Grand Master for the honour he had done them by his attendance that evening . It was at the time a matter of great regret to them all that , owing to ill-health , his Lordship was unable to be present at the consecration ; but they
were all gratified that he was now amongst them . They were for . tnnate in Essex in having a Provincial Grand Master who was Becond to none in the Kingdom , who took such a deep interest in the welfare of the Craft , or was held in suoh affectionate esteem in the hearts of those nnder his rule . With regard to their own Lodge his Lordship would , he was sure , be glad to know that the Easterford
Lodge , though only nine months old , was in a very flourishing con . dition , they numbered , he believed , 30 or 40 members , all hardworking earnest brethren , who wonld be a source of strength to tbe Provinoe . The Senior Warden ( Bro . Dr . Salter ) seconded the resolution , which was carried with acclamation . Lord Brooke , M . P ., in rising to respond , was heartily applauded ,
His Lordship said that it gave him great pleasure , as the Principal Masonio Officer of this Province , to find that the confidence he had reposed in the founders of the Lodge , when he recommended H . R . H . the Grand Master to grant them a warrant , had been BO amply justified . It was a pleasure to him also , as it must be a source of gratification to them , to see a Master in the ohair who was so well
able to discharge the ceremonial duties thereof as Bro . the Rev . Thos . Lloyd had done that evening . The ceremonies of Masonry were most impressive , and he felt sure that the candidate who had been completed that night must have been profoundly impressed by what he had gone through . As R . W . P . G . M . he felt it his duty to visit the several Lodges as much as possible , but in a large Province like
Essex it waa impossible he could do so as often as he could wish . Thirteen new Lodges had been added to this Province since he was called to preside over it , and the Shurmur Lodge , oonseorated on Monday last , gave them thirty-two Lodges on the roll . He was most pleased to find that Masonry was so prosperous in his Province , and
in conclusion he paid a high tribute to tbe great assistance he re * oeived in his work as P . G . M . from Bro . Philbriok D . P . G . M ., Bro . Bailing P . G . Seoretary , and the other P . G . Officers . After the meeting between thirty and forty brethren dined together , a capital repast being well served by Messrs . Wright and Son , of Colchester .
