Tredegar Lodge of Instruction , Wo . 1625 . —A very numerous assemblage of brethren ( upwards of seventy ) met on Monday , the 12 th inst ., at the Royal Hotel , Milo End-road , E . Such an immense gathering is rarely seen at a Lodgo of Instrnction . The fame of Bro . T . J . Barnes P . M . 933 as one of the most able , if not the ablest , exponent of the Masonic ritual and lectures , together
with the distinguished names upon the list of thoso who were to work the responses , sufficiently accounted for the attraction . The result was not disappointing . To sit for upwards of three hours listening to the exposition of tho lectures in the wearisome manner in which the task is not unfrequently performed , is a caution and a penance , and to an individual endowed with intellectual culture in soever ,
small a degree , positively agonising . On the present occasion , however , with such a president and so intelligent a staff of most efficient workmen , the effect was most gratifying , and the interest in the proceedings never flagged for one instant throughout the whole of the evening . The chairs were occupied by Bros . T . J . Barnes P . M . W . M ., T . Austin P . M . S . W ., J . Bony P . M . J . W ., and
among those present were Bros . E . Gottheil P . M . Preceptor , C . Lacey P . M ., T . Mortlock P . M ., W . H . Myers P . M ., J . Constable P . M ., J . Hugget the W . M . of the mother Lodge , Geo . Hollington Secretary , & c , & c . The sections wero worked in the following order : —1 st Da Silva , 2 nd Campbell , 3 rd W . J . Rawley , 4 th Hogg , 5 th Williams , 6 th Pinder , 7 th Ives , 8 th Cambridge , 9 th
Rudderforth , 10 th Berry , 11 th Turquand , 12 th Brown , 13 th Myers , 14 th Taylor , 15 th C . H . Webb . Bro . C . Lacey moved a vote of thanks to the W . M . for the efficient manner in which he had discharged his duties . Bro . Gottheil , in seconding the motion , thought it derogatory to Bro . Barnes to thank him for efficiency which has been well established for many years past , and is besides a compliment given to the
merest tyro . The thanks of the brethren were eminently due to him for his successful labours in rectifying and purifying the ritual and lectures from many anomalies which had disfigured them . It was easy to distinguish the work of a brother who had been directly or indirectly under Bro . Barnes ' s tuition , it being free from common faults , both in grammar and diction . The vote was carried unanimously . Bro . Barnes , in thanking the brethren , observed that it was a great
pleasure to him to bo surrounded on this occasion by so numerous an assembly . From the very earliest period of his Masonic career he had strenuously rejected any teaching that appeared to his mind faulty . His first Preceptor had been the late Past Master Saque , whom some of them might remember as a very stubborn kind of teacher , and many a hard battle was fought upon different points between them . His endeavours had been sneered at and frequently condemned , but he waa happy to say that the mode
Notices Of Meetings.
of working he advocated was steadily making way . A fair sample had been presented that evening , for most of the brethren who had given their services had received instrnction either from himself personally , or from those whom ho had previously tanght , and wero regular attendants in the Tredegar Lodgo of Instruction , the work of
whose Preceptor was similar to his ( Bro . Barnes's ) own . Ho would conclude by thanking the brethren who so kindly , and very ably , assisted him , and without , in tho slightest , detracting from the excellency of the others , would especially distinguish Bro . Campbell , a young Scotch Mason , who , upon his arrival iu this country , but a few short
months ago , was absolutely ignorant of anything pertaining to English Freemasonry , and it was remarkable how quickly ho had progressed in so short a time . A vote of thanks to tho section workers was carried tiem con . Some twenty new members were elected . The following letter was handed round by Bro . C . Lacey : —
" Exmouth-street , Commercial-road , E . " November 1877 . DEAE SIR AND BKOTHEB , —You , and tho brethren of your Lodge , are respectfully invited to attend a meeting of SUBSCKIBERS TO THE
MASONIC INSTITUTIONS , at the Royal Hotel , Milc-end-road , E ., on Monday evening , 19 th November 1877 , at 8 . 30 p . m ., to consider tho arrangements which havo been made to concentrate the votes of tbe brethren , so that a more equitable return may be the result , and the candidates for admission to the different Institutions receive that aid
and support which the urgency of the case may require . " Believe me , yours faithfully , " CHARLES LACEY , P . M . 174 , 1625 , & c . " Tho ceremony will be performed first , and tho meeting take place afterwards . In tho first part of the proceedings Bro . W . J . Rawley will occupy the chair .
