J ., Jas . Balfour P . G . Scribe E ., G . W . Wheeler P . G . ScribeN ., T . Halket P . G . T ., G . MacDonald P . G . 3 rd S ., and J . M . Oliver P . G . S . B ., paid a visit to Chapter 50 . Tho Chapter was opened by tho M . E Z ., Comp . Wm . Bell , who was ably assisted by Comps . J . Louttit H ., Colin
McKonzie J ., F . Morrison S . E ., P . Agnew T ., J . Leeds , R . Trainer and J . Wright Sojourners . The P . G . S . E . reported that they had found all the books admirably kept , and the Chapter in good working order . The P . G . Superintendent said that , not only in his official capacity , but also as an old P . Z . of 50 , he was glad to find that his Mother Chapter was contiuuing to work so satisfactorily . Like many
other bodies , it had had its vicissitudes , but it had surmounted them , and if , during the past year , they had had but few exaltations , if the quality of their candidates was considered , ho thought they should not repine ; still , he was glad to find that , under Comp . Bell , this year would show a large increase in membership , and he trusted , indeed , in tho quality of the material , for that , after all , was the
test of true prosperity . Comp . Bell thanked the P . G . S ., and the deputation for their visit , as well as for the kind words spoken ; they were the more valuable coming from the source they did , for they all knew there was not a better working Mason , either in the Craft or Arch , than Comp . Barrow . Ho was glad to see him at the head of the Red , and if hard work in the Province was deserving of
recognition , he should also be at the head of the Bine—a position he yet hoped to see him occupy . Comp . Barrow said he was quite satisfied with the honours he had obtaiued , and had resigned his office of D . P . G . M . of the Province that ho might devote more of his time to the Arch and the other high degrees of Masonry . Comp . J . M . Oliver , tho only member of the deputation not already an honorary member
of 50 , was then affiliated , and the deputation withdrew . A Mark Lodge was thereafter opened , and C . MacKenzie J . conferred that degree on Bro . J . Higgins , M . M . of Lodge 73 . On Friday , the 18 tb , Comp . Barrow , with his officers , visited the Commercial Chapter No . 79 . In the absence of Comp . D . Lamb 1 st Principal , the Chapter was opened by his Deputy , Comp . J . Munro , Comps . J .
Duthie P . Z . of 69 as H ., A . Brodie J ., J . M . Oliver Scribe E ., R . Reid T ., with 0 . Mackenzie , R . Trainer , and Capt . Duncan as Sojourners . The P . G . S . E . reported the state of the books as being faultless . Comp . Barrow congratulated the Comps . on getting this clear bill of health , but it was what he expeoted from what he knew of Comp . Oliver as an office-bearer in P . G . C ; and although
he was sorry for the absence of the 1 st Principal , still whije he hud so good a Deputy as Comp . Munro , whose work in the Commercial Lodge was well known , the Chapter would not suffer much . They had only latterly been re . eonstitnted , and he believed that Comp . Munro had done much , not only to get the Chapter re-opened , but also to secure its prosperity when open . Comp . Munro thanked the
P . G . Superintendent for his kind remarks j it was true he had taken some interest in the Chapter , but if they had known beforehand how little assistance they should get from the old members , they might have hesitated ; but , thanks to the deputation , and especially Comps . Duthie and Wheeler , they had never wanted assistance when there was work to be done , and he thought they now stood in a very prond
position . He thanked the P . G . S . and his officers for their visit , and their kind expressions towards himself and tho Chapter . After the deputation retired , Comp . Duthie opened a Mark Lodge , and conferred that degree in his usual able style . On Tuesday , the Superintendent and hi 3 officers visited the St . Andrew Chapter , No . 69 , and highly eulogised the working of Comp . T . M . Campbell and his officers .
The Chapter had been in a low state , but since Comp . Campbell had again assumed the 1 st Principal's chair , their success had been very marked , proving that good work will surely raiso the Order and secure members . On Wednesday , the Shamrock and Thistle , No . 87 , was visited , and Comp . George Muir its Z . was complimented on the progress the Chapter had made . There had been 19 exaltations last
year , and the present one promises to be equally successful . There was a good attendance of members and visitors . Patrick Chapter , 113 , was visited on Wednesday , the 5 tb , and tho deputation was received by Comp . J . Halket Z . The examination of the books was satisfactory , but the attendance of the members was but small . This is the more to be regretted , as Comp . Halket , P . G . Treas ., its Z ., is one of the best working Arch Masons in the Province .
A complimentary soirie Dansante will be held at the Manor Rooms , Mare-street , Hackney , on Wednesday next , under the auspices of Bro . Hadley Prestage . The large ball room will be elegantly decorated for the occasion , and Payne's band will be in attendance . Tickets may bo had at tho offico , Amhurst-road , Hackney , E . Prices as follows : —Gentlemen ' s , five shillings each ; Ladies ' , three shillings and sixpence j double tickets , seven shillings . We trust Bro . Prestage will obtain the amount of support he so rioaly deserves .
