Earl Of Sussex Lodge No. 2201.
regarded their initiates aa the coming Officera and Worshipful Maatera of the Lodge . The Lodge waa proud to receive them . Brother Gerald Loder numbered at least 7132 Brighton frienda , all of whom had sent him birthday cards on the 28 th of October last , and those who did not agree with hia views would wish him " Many happy
returns of the day . " Bro . Scott recalled the name of an honoured Brother—John Henderson Scott—and if their newly-made brother followed in hia footsteps the Lodge would , indeed , be proud of him . Bro . Chapman Marshall , an accomplished musician , would , he said , be able to add to their pleasures . He heartily welcomed the three
initiates , and congratulated them npon having been initiated by the Grand Secretary . Bro . Gerald W . E . Loder was warmly applauded on rising to acknowledge the toasfc . Thanking the brethren for the too flattering manner in whioh they had received the toast , he said the initiates , and nofc fche Lodge , had been honoured that afternoon .
He had attended many ceremonies , but he could sincerely say that none had made such a deep impression upon him as the ceremony of his initiation . He felt grateful that he waa able to respond in another capacity from that whioh he had recently occupied , and that he was not expected to make a set speech . He looked forward with
pleasure to his association with Freemasonry , and would work assiduously and earnestly in its promotion . He trusted he would then be able to respond in more eloquent and appropriate terms . Bros . A . Scott and Chapman Marshall also responded . The W . M . proposed the Visitors . Bro . F . West P . G . D . responded , and after thanking the
Lodge for enabling him to be present at the afternoon's ceremony and sharing their hospitality , said it would be better for the country at large if Masonio principles were more fully carried out , aud that speeoheain high placea would be more moderate and conciliatory . Bros . Sir Somera Vine , J . Blundell Maple , M . P ., and Augusfcua Harris ,
also briefly responded . The W . M . gave the Pasfc Master . The Lodge deeply regretted , he said , the loss of their first W . M . —the late Bro . Gerard Ford . Bro . Sir W . T . Marriott was fcheir only Past Master , and while he continued to take an active part in Freemasonry the Earl of Sussex Lodge would flourish . Bro . Sir W . T . Marriott
responded . Alluding to the late Bro . Ford s ability and zeal , he said their lamented brother had also time to devote to Freemasonry . He himself had not an abundance of time to spare , bufc he was as firm a believer as their late brother in tbe principles of the Craft . They were indeed grand principles , and he wonld defy the representatives
of any religious creed to take exception to either of them . If those principles were not only professed bnt carried out the work would be much better . The W . M . submitted the Officers of the Lodge , to which Broa . C . W . Hudson and R . Pidoock responded . The Tyler ' s toast completed the list . During the evening a pleasing selection of vocal
music was sustained by Miss Minnie Freeman , Miss Edith Hands , Bro . A . King , and Mr . Martin Barling , the last named taking the place of Bro . J . P . Slingsby Roberts , Organist of the Lodge , who had arranged the programme , but was prevented by illness from being present . The duties of accompanist were admirably carried out by Bro . W . N . Roe .
