Quarterly Communication Of United Grand Lodge.

QUARTERLY COMMUNICATION OF UNITED GRAND LODGE .

THE Quarterly Communication of United Grand Lodge was held on Wednesday , at Freemasons' Hall , General Brownrigg , C . B ., Provincial Grand Master for Surrey , presiding . Brother Samuel Rawson , P . D . G . M . China , acted as Deputy Grand Master , and the Hon . Bro . Justice

Prinsep , D . G . M . Bengal , as Past Grand Master . The minutes of the June meeting having been read and confirmed , Bro . James Stevens stated that he rose with very considerable diffidence to raise a question of order and

privilege . On the last occasion it was declared by the Pro Grand Master . General Brownrigg said that as Brother Stevens was about to refer to something which occurred at last meeting , he might state that the Pro Grand Master had written a memorandum to the effect

that Bro . Stevens ' s notice of motion , which had been laid before him , had been considered very carefully , and he was clearly of opinion that it was one which could not be placed on tho agenda paper of Grand Lodge , inasmuch as

it might lead to an interference with , and an encroachment upon the undoubted prerogative of the Grand Master and his -freedom of action in matters appertaining to his high office , as sot forth in the Constitutions of the Order . Under

these circumstances , he was afraid he could not do otherwise than stop any further discussion on the subject . This announcement was received with cheers . The Report of the Lodge of Benevolence for the last quarter was read ,

and the recommendations therein contained were confirmed . Bro . Thomas Fenn P . G . D ., in the absence of Sir John B . Monckton , brought up the Report of the Board of General Purposes , which stated

that—Grand Lodge having at its last Quarterly Communication accep ted the draft of the proposed revision of the Book of Constitutions , as prepared by the Board , and having approved of its suggestion tba tho same bo considered at a Special Grand Lodge , and that j the meantime copies be circulated atnougst the Provinces for tJi 8
