Mark Masonry.
by Brother Colonel Bignold , and carried by acclamation , the R . W . P . G . M . thanked the Brethren for the heartiness with which his namo had been received by them . If their recommendation was confirmed by the M . W . G . M . M . M ., he
promised , as he had done in the past , to do all he could for the welfare of Mark Masonry in the province of East Anglia . He had been pleased to hear so satisfactory an account of the condition of the Lodges under his rule , and
he had no doubt that the acceptance by H . R . H . the Prince of Wales of tlio position of Grand Master of the Order wonld havo the effect of increasing their prosperity . H . R . H . had appointed the 1 st of July , in London , for his
installation , and he trusted that their Province would be well represented on the occasion . He reminded the Brethren that the Grand Lodge of Eno-land would hold a moveable Grand Lodo-e at Norwich during- the Show Week
in July , and he hoped that the Brethren would show their appreciation of so distinguished an honour by attending in large numbers . The Prince of Wales would be afc Sandringham at the time , and it was hoped he would be
present at the meeting ; but H . R . H . ' s engagements were so numerous that it "was not yet certain if he could find the time convenient to do so . As regarded the cordial invitation of tho Ipswich Brethren to hold
the next P . G . Lodge there , he should be happy to accept it , unless the P . G . Lodge saw any reason to the contrary . His Lordship then mentioned that the revision of the Book of Constitutions would necessitate the revision of the
Byelaws of the Province , and he thought thafc should be done without delay . He thanked the Worshipful Master and the Officers of the Isaac Newton University Lodge for their reception , and also thanked a brother , who desired to
be nameless , for presenting a handsome set of collars . He likewise commended to the support of the brethren the Mark Benevolent Fund , and said he trusted that the Stewards who had undertaken to represent the Province
would be well supported . A conversation then took place in reference to the arrangements for the Moveable Grand Lodge , at Norwich , the burden of which , his Lordship said , ought not to fall entirely on the Walpole Lodge . Colonel
Bignold , as representing thafc Lodge , said they had been unable at preseut to ascertain what would really be required of them ; and ifc was eventually decided thafc , as soon as this was known , a circular should be sent to the Lodges
in the Province asking for their support . P . G . Lodge was shortly afterwards closed ; and between twenty ancl thirty brethren dined together at the Lion Hotel , a sumptuous
repasfc being provided by the host , Bro . Moyes . In the course of the evening a subscription was inaugurated on behalf of the Mark Benevolent Fund ; it realised the sum of £ 10 10 s .
On Tuesday , a deputation from the Porchester Lodge of Mark Masters , consisting of Bro . Stephen Knight W . M ., and Past Masters John Bance , George M . Knight , and George J . Cosbnru , waited upon Lord Carnarvon , Past G . Master of
the Mark Degree , at Hig hclere Castle , for the purpose of consulting his Lordship on several matters connected with the arrangements for the Annual Grand Lodge for the Province of Berks and Oxon , which is to be held in the
Town Hall , Newbury , about the middle of July . The deputation was received in tbe drawing-room by Lord Carnarvon , with his accustomed geniality and courtesy . Having been introduced to the noble Earl by Bro . Cosburn ,
