EEPOKTS OF MEETINGS .

METROPOLITAN . — : o ;—KINGSLAND LODGE , No . 1093 . THE Installation mooting was held at tho Cock Tavern , Highbury Station , on Tuesday of last week , Bro . L . Simon presiding . — : o : —

The Lodge having been opened , Bros . J . W . Doubtfire and J . E . Clarke brought up the audit report of the year , commenting favourably on the work of the Treasurer and Secretary , with the result that tho report was received and adopted .

The interesting ceremonies and rites pertaining to Installation were then proceeded with , and Bro . John Potter was installed as W . M . by I . P . M . Bro . L . Simon , with an earnest perfectness , says the " Weekly News , " that earned and received the approving

acknowledgment of the Brethren present . The charges and proclamations were almost faultless in intonation and impressiveness , and gained from the W . M . a phrase , that , though he had been present on occasions similar to the one that was now his own , he had not felt so much the true realism of it until that day .

The banquet was well served in the large assembly-room of the Hotel , the service and decorations reflecting considerable credit on Bro . M . T . Tuck , the Manager . Brother L . Simon I . P . M . proposed tho Worshipful Master , remarking that every member of the Lodge would acknowledge

that in their present chief they had one who had all through his connection with them proved his devotion to the Craft in general , and the Kingsland Lodge in particular ; he augured for him a successful teim , and felt assured that at its close there would be a record of good work well done .

The W . M ., in acknowledgment , said that up to that time he had hardly realised the impressiveness of the high position he now occupied , he trusted that the G . A . O . T . U . would endow him with sufficient strength of health and judgment to fulfil the trusts the office demanded , and remove any doubts as to his individual capacity to hold the office with dignity to himself and effectiveness to the Craft .

Bro . J . Cooper P . M ., by desire ofthe W . M ., proposed in felicitous terms the Visitors , coupling with it the names of W . M . Brother Gillard , P . M . Hodges , W . M . Thomas Glass , and W . M . Lieutenant James . Bro . James said the inhabitants of the North London district generally would exult in the acquirement of Bro . Potter , who was , in truth , neighbour , Brother , ana friend to all .

Bro . Glass said although he fully shared in all the kindly sentiments expressed , he could not help feeling himself a deceived man . Bro . Potter bad whispered timidity and impeifectness , but he had shown none of it that day ; this was a good sign , but it was hardly fair for the Master to try to make old friends nervous as to results . He thought he ought to feel rather grieved -with the W . M ., but was willing to lot it pass .

The W . M . proposed the I . P . M ., to whom he fully acknowledged indebtedness . Bro . Simon assured them that he was glad to have been able to give them so much satisfaction by his working , he was especially
