Brother Sadler's Answer To Bro. Jacob Norton's

natural goodness of heart ; to unite with me in endeavouring to place this portion of our history on a firm and comprehensive basis , easily understood by those who follow ns ; and let us sweep away for all time the inappropriate , confusing and ridiculous appellations which have hitherto been applied to tho two great branches of our Order . Let us

in future give them their proper titles , neither " Ancients , " " so-called Ancients , " "Moderns , " "Regulars , " "Irregulars , " " Schismatics , " " Seceders , " nor even " Atbols , " but

let us call the elder Society the " The Grand Lodge of England , " and the younger say , " The Anglo-Irish Grand Lodge . " If my friends can suggest anything better I shall be glad , but in my opinion these designations would

be most appropriate . Whether we agree or not on this particular point I am firmly convinced that sooner or later some such titles will be given them , for the real history of the so-called " Schismatics " has yet to be written , indeed

I may venture to state that it is now in progress , and that the subject has been taken in hand by one who has both patience and ability to do it full justice , and who , I doubt not , will act upon the maxim that " Historians

ought to be precise , truthful , and quite unprejudiced , and neither interest nor fear , hatred nor affection , should cause them to swerve from the path of truth , whose

mother is history , the rival of time , the depository of great actions , the witness of what is past , the example and instruction to fche present , and monitor fco the future . " *

Jubilee Memorial At Padstow.

JUBILEE MEMORIAL AT PADSTOW .

A GEAND Masonio ceremonial was observed at the laying of the foundation stone of an obelisk at Dennishill , on Tuesday , the 1 st inst ., to commemorate the Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Victoria . The weather was exceptionally fine , and although there was a keen , biting wind , and the road to the site exceedingly mucky , there was a large attendance of Masonio brethren , Foresters , and the public ,

and the proceedings passed off very successfully . The Padstow Jubilee Committee placed as memorials several seats in the attractive walks arontid the town for the convenience and comfort of residents nnd visitors , and proposed to erect a small obelisk with seats around at Deonis-hill to specially mark the eventful year . They

accordingly applied to the Eev . Samuel Paynter , of London , who owns tho estate and a considerable amount of laud adjoining , for the necessary permission to erect the obelisks and seats there . The Eev . Samuel Paynter not only gave his consent , but offered to place an obelisk on the site at his own cost . Tho Committee were , of

course , delighted with this proposal , and as the result of negotiations ¦ which took place between the rev . gentleman and Mr . Joseph Hicks , the secretary of tho committee , Messrs . Henry Hamilton and John Paynter Hamilton , architects , of London , were instructed to draw up plans for an obelisk . This having been done , tenders were invited ,

and that of Bro . Nicholas Eobins , of Wadebridge , was accepted . The height of the obelisk will be fifty feet , and it will be built of grey Cornish granite . There are steps at the base , and then a largo square block bearing the words " Victoria Jubilee , 1887 , " surmounted by a crown . When the Jubilee Committee learnt that tho

Eev . Samuel Paynter proposed to behave so nobly and generously , and erect so substantial a memorial , it was suggested that as Padstow had a young and flourishing Masonic Lodge—St . Petroc , No . 1785— -the Masons should be given an opportunity of proving themselves practical aud operative Masons . The donor of the sice and

structure acquiesced in the proposal , and accordingly the Earl of Mount Edgcumbe , Provincial Grand Master of Cornwall , was asked to perform the ceremony . His lordship wrote saying he should only have only been too pleased to comply with their wishes , but his public engagements would not permit . He deputed Bro . Major C .

E . Prideaux Brune , W . M . St . Petroc Lodge , to act in his absence , and who fully justified the choice made by the able way in which he carried out the ceremony . The Jubilee Committee , Mr . J . Hicks in particular , are to be congratulated on having brought tho negotiations to a successful issue , and the W . M . and the consecrating

Officers on their excellent work . Tho site is a most commanding one , about a mile from the town . It commands the Camel Eiver , the mouth of the harbour , and the surrounding lulls and tors for miles around . Tbe total cost of the structure will bo about £ 500 . — Lanceder Weekly News .

AFFABILITY LODGE , No . 317 . THE installation of Bro . James Eobinson took place on Thursday , the 3 rd inst ., in the Freemasons' Hall , Manchester , when a

large number of brethren attended . It is most satisfactory to note that this old Lodge has flourished considerably during the pastfifteen years , owing , in the first instance , to the energy and interest thrown into it by one of three then remaining members , viz ., Bro . J .

L . Hine P . P . G . J . W ., who many years ago , when the question of returning the Warrant to Grand Lodge waa discussed , refused to be a party to such a course , and with the assistance of his confrerea succeeded in re-established the Lodge on something like its former footing . The brother alluded to is familiarly styled " Charity Hine , " or

or as the E . W . P . G . Master once stated , the gentleman who drives the Charity Coach . For upwards of forty years Bro . Hine has worked most strenuously and zealously for the cause of charity , and no brother is more highly esteemed or better known in East Lancashire . In addition to Bro .

welfare of the Lodge are Bros . James Dawaon P . M ., John Bladon P . M . P . P . G . A . D . of C , John Smethurst P . M ., Henry Walmsl ^ y P . M ., W . J . CunlifFe P . M . and Treas . P . P . G . S . D ., J . W . Edwards P . M ., and James Wilson P . M . These brethren have undoubtedly been of late years so many pillars of the Lodge , and their constant

attendance , unflagging interest , and ungrudging charity , has been the means of producing the present satisfactory condition of things . Emulating such examples our Bro .

his interest and zeal . Among those present on Thursday were Bros . W . B . Akerman WM ., James Eobinson S . W ., E . Chesworth J . W ., W . J . Cunliffe P . M . Treas . P . P . G . S .
