M . said he hoped to have the pleasure at the next meeting . The W . M . then thanked the brethren

for the high honour they had conferred on him , and said ho would do all in his power to keep the Lodge up to the high standing that it now held , and hoped he would receive the hearty co-operation of his officers , and , from what he knew of them , he was sure he would have their support . He then proposed , and Bro . Dr . Do Tatham seconded , that a Past Master ' s jewel be presented by tho Lodge to W . Bro .

McKenzie , for the valuable services he had rendered to the Lodge during the past year , as a slight mark of the esteem and regard in which he was held by the brethren . W . Bro . McKenzie then rose , and said he quite appreciated the honour the brethren wished to do him on the present occasion , but before the proposit ion was put to the vote he was sure the Lodgo could not afford to go to such an

expense , as it was only just beginning to get into a flourishing condition , and they must recollect they had , only during tho last month , got a handsome kit from Bro . Spencer ' s , in England , but he was pleased to say that the Lodge had sufficient funds to pay for the same —( applause)—and he would be sorry to see the Lodge put to such an expense , he therefore must decline the honour they wished

to do him , but appreciated their feeling of kindness just as much as a jewel . ( Applause . ) Bro . W . C . Rowe then proposed an amendment , and Bro . C . Tudball seconded , thatasubscriptionlistbe circulated amongst the brethren of the Lodge , for the purpose of subscribing towards a Past Master ' s jewel for W . Bro . Alex . McKenzie , in token of the high esteem in which he is held by the brethren , and said

that this would not affect the funds of the Lodge , and also be more appreciated by their worthy Past Master , which was carried unanimously . W . Bro . McKenzie then thanked the brethren for their great kindness , and said as they were determined to do him the honour of wearing a Past Master ' s jewel he should have much pleasure in accepting the same as it was not to bo taken from the

funds of the Lodge . He then proposed , and Bro . Rowe seconded , that Bros . Balfour , Robinson and Luke be elected members of tho committee , which was carried unanimously . The W . M . then requested the Secretary to call a meeting at an early date . There being no further business before the Lodge , it was closed in peace and harmony at 8 . 30 p . m .
