knowledge of its characteristic features , its interests and institntions , and to promote , by intercourse with all classes of its inhabitants , the friendly feelings which it is so essential should subsist between tho Mother Country and every part of her vast empire .

the opinion of the committee the cases were very deserving , it was recommended that gratuities of £ 8 , £ 10 , £ 5 and £ 10 be respective l y granted .

W . Bro . Hughan read his report on the management of the votes of Cornwall for the great Masonic Charities of London . He begged to thank the P . G . M . and P . G . Lodge for their kindly placing the sum of twenty guineas in his name on the list of the Royal Masonio Institution for Boys ( for which he was acting as Steward ) in lieu of payment of his out-of-pocket expenses , which he declined . It in .
creased his list as Steward in a very pleasant manner , and raised the total to over £ 450 , which was the largest single list in England for 1876 . They had no candidates for the Royal Masonio Institutions for Girls or Boys at the October and April elections for 1876-7 , so the votes for those Charities were utilised for the Royal Masonio Benevolent Institution , ancl secured the election of the brother who
was a candidate for that Charity . They had now four of those annuitants , and from that fund they were receiving £ 152 per annum . They had also a girl in the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls . He was glad , also , to state that at present tho Prvince owed no votes to anyone . They had votes to receive from the P . G . L . of Devon in April 1878 , having assisted that province to the utmost in obtaining
the election of their candidates , aud whenever the province of Cornwall wanted to borrow a thousand votes its credit was sufficiently good to be able to get them . ( Hear ) . That report was received and adopted . The P . G . M . said it was a most satisfactory report , and did great credit to Bro . Hughan for the assiduity , zeal ancl success he
exhibited in the matter . The Committee of Relief was appointed as follows : —Bros . Anderton , Truscott , ancl Holloway—with the Prov . G . Treasurer , and Prov . G . Secretary ; Bros . Rogers and Hughan having resigned . W . Bro . Hughan then proposed that the fees to Prov . G . Lodge be increased to 5 s instead of 3 s on the initiation of a candidate . The
former , he said , was the general fee paid iu other provinces , and although a trifle to each Lodgo it would amount in the aggregate to a sum worth obtaining . Cornwall had been very successful with the Charities , but to keep up that prosperity it was necessary to maintain its character for contributions to those , and this money would become useful in increasing them . The proposed increase fee on a brother
joining a Lodge , he said , he must withdraw , as it was found to clash with the present rule of G . Lodge . The propositions . were seconded and unanimously adopted . On the question of the grants to the Cornwall Masonic Annuity Fund ancl the great Masonic Charities , £ 25 was voted to the Cornwall Fund , and Bro . Hnghan renewed his advocacy of the great Masonic Charities being liberally supported by
Cornwall , on account of the amount that province was receiving from them . The P . G . M . said perhaps it was advisable that he should take a Stewardship for the Royal Masonic Benevolent Fund , and stated hia intention of so doing . £ 50 was voted to the Charity , and Bro . Hughan hoped that the P . G . M . wonld be so well supported in hia
Stewardship that his list on the occasion would be one second to none in England . This concluding a large portion of the business , the Lodge proceeded in procession , in full regalia , with banners and emblems displayed , ancl headed by tho Lauuceston Volunteer Band , to the Church of St . Mary Magdalene , where an eloquent sermon was preached by the Rev . J . B . Jones to a crowded congregation , on the
text 1 st Epistle of Peter , Chapter ii , verse 17 . An offertory was made , the proceeds of which was appropriated in accordance with former custom—two-fifths to a local charity , the Rowe Dispensary ; two-fifths to the Benevolent Fund ; and one-fifth to the clergyman , for charitable distribution .
