ON Wednesday afternoon , the 7 th inst ., the Provincial Grand Lodge of West Yorkshire held its first meeting since the installation of the new Provincial Grand Master , in the Town Hall , Skipton , under the banner of the Craven Lodge , No . 810 , when about 200 brethren assembled . The Lodge was presided over by the Right

Worshipful Provincial Grand Master ( Bro . T . W . Tew , of Pontefract ) , assisted by the Deputy Provincial Grand Master ( Bro . Henry Smith , of Wakefield ) , and a large gathering of Provincial Grand Officers . Apologies for absence were read from Bro . W . L . Jackson P . G . S . W .,

and Bro . the Right Hon . H . 0 . Childers P . G . S . D ., who were unavoidably prevented from attending . Tho roll of Lodges being called , it was ascertained that about sixty Lodges in the Province were represented . Among the visitors present were Bro . Sir Alexander Wolf ,

Vicechairman of the Great Western Railway ; Bro . Binckes , Secretary of the Royal Masonic Institution for Boys , & c , and a party of military brethren . The salutations accorded to the Provincial Grand Master and to the Deputy

Provincial Grand Master were most cordial and enthusiastic , and when the applause had subsided , the Provincial Grand Master ( Bro . T . W . Tew ) addressed the brethren as follows : —

Worship ful Past Masters and Acting Wardens , Master Masons , Officers and Brethren , —The thought uppermost in my mind this afternoon and at this moment is how I can adequately acknowledge the salutations you have just now so cordially accorded to your new Provincial Grand Master and also to his Deputy—how I shall thank

this assembly of West Yorkshire Freemasons for their reception of mo on this occasion—how I shall find words to express tho thoughts of which my heart is full with deep gratitude for kindnesses and forbearance towards me in the discharge of my new duties as tho responsible occupant of this chair , in succession to Colonel Sir Henry

Edwards . It is my lir . ~ t effort since my installation at Leeds ou the 2 I th April to undertake from this chair the duties of a Provincial Grand Master , as your Provincial Grand Master of this large and important province . I can only bid yon imagine the feelings of gratitude which , it is hardly possible to put into words , for the

consideration shown me , and for the salutation of regard and friendship with which you have favoured mo . I esteem it a privilege to be permitted to guide the deliberations of this Provincial Grand Lodge , and to be associated with you in the discharge of obligations the most lofty and the most benevolent that any Order can aspire to

promulgate . I trust it may be my happy fortune in the long connection which I am proud to say has existed between us , to secure to this ollice in which vou have placed me the confidence and esteem of my

brethren in the Craft of West Yorkshire . Provincial Grand Masters who havo gone before me will be my leaders and my teachers , and I iihall tiy and continue their labours and speak their thoughts , and diaucminate thnjutrhutit this fralurual community thuae lofty aeufci-
