Reports Of Meetings.
well known way , to the evident interest and apnreciation of the candidates . It was a matter of regret that Bro . Speller had to leave the meeting at this stage , bis duties as Worshipful Master of the new Waltham Abbey Lodge , which met the same day , calling him away . The next business was the passing of Bros . H . G . Ramadan and F . J . Qope , followed by the initiation of Mr . Arthur William Croger , who was first balloted for and regularly elected . of
An adjournment was now made to the lar ^ e Hall the Hotel , where Bro . Shurmur P . G . S . B . assumed the ohair and regularlv installed Bro . Walter Forte > cue as Master for the ensuing year , Bro . Kaufman P . P . G . D . C . rendering him great assistance as Director of Ceremonies . The following were appointed and invested as tho Assistant Officers for
the year : Bros . Percy Tricket S . W ., G . H . Pizey J . W ., Rev . W . H . Langhorne Prov . G . C Chaplain , W . Shurmur P . G . S . B . Treasurer , James Clark P . M . Secretary , M . J . H .

Loeb Stewards , J . Ives P . M . Tyler .
Bro . Shurmur next delivered the three addresses , performing the whole of the work of installation in splendid style , and winning most hearty and well deserved Masonic applause . Two gentlemen were proposed for initiation , and one Brother as a joining member ; other work of the annual meeting was completed , the visitors tendered hearty good wishes , and the Lodge was closed .
After an excellent banquet the W . M . proposed the Loyal toasts . In .. submitting that of the Grand Officers he said the Lodge had one among their members , and he a host in himself—their worthy Brother Shurmur , the founder of their Lodge , and the Brother after whom it was named . Brother Shurmur desired to thank the Brethren in all sincerity for the hearty applause with which they had greeted the remarks of the Worshipful Master . He also thanked the Master for so cordially coupling his name with the noble Brethren at the head of the Craft , and desired to express his warmest thanks for the way in which- the toast had been received .
The next toast was that of tho Provincial Grand Master and the Officers of Provincial Grand Lodge present and past . The W . M . said the head of their county , the Earl of Warwick , was a shining light in Freemasonry , occupying the high office of Deputy Grand Master of England , while coming nearer home they had Bros . Shurmur , Fortescue and Gower , each of whom
had filled the office of Provincial Grand Treasurer , Bro . Kaufman Prov . G . D . C ., Bro . Langhorne Prov . Grand Chaplain , and Bro . Bestow Prov . G . Pursuivant—a noble array of Provincial Officers for one Lodge to include among its members , while with the visitors they were honoured by the presence of Bro . J . Barnes P . P . G . St . B ., and Bro . Evans P . P . G . Steward .
The two last named were the first to respond , thanking the Master for the toast and the company for their hearty reception of it . Bro . Langhorne followed , adding his personal thanks . They had read of the man who woke up one day and found himself famous—such , in fact , was his experience when one day he received a letter from the Earl of Warwick offering him the dignity of Chaplain of the important Province of Essex , a
post he was indeed proud to fill . An old friend had always urged him to " Have a great number of irons in the fire , " and he endeavoured to act up to that advice ; but he often found it very difficult to keep them all warm . This was the seventh engagement of his for that day , and he had had to chevy and chase about in order to get in an attendance at as many as possible . He was indeed pleased to have been able to be at tho gatherin g .
Bro . N . Fortescue , who was enthusiastically asked for , said he could quite understand the Worshipful Master not calling on him to respond to the toast , as for the last twenty years or more he had not been in the habit of " giving orders" in that direction . It afforded him a great amount of gratification to see his son occupying the position of Worshipful Master in the Lodge , and he was also pleased to see two other of his sons there present —but that was not all , he had yet two other boys , who were coming on , and
it might be they would some day desire to become members of the Shurmur Lodge ; he should not advise them in the matter , but if they asked him he should have much pleasure in proposing them for initiation . He felt it was the duty of a father to speak well of his sons when he had such sons as he was blessed with . He recollected some nine years ago , when he had resigned from his Lodge and bad decided to have nothing further to do with Freemasonry , mentioning the matter to his friend Shurmur , and saying if what
he had experienced was Freemasonry then he wanted nothing of it . Bro . Shurmur replied , come and see what I can show you , and perhaps you will alter your opinion . He went with his friend to the Warner Lodge , and found things so different that he now felt it a privilege to belong to Freemasonry , and to be associated with such a Lodge as the Shurmur , which Lodge be had heard referred to as being too pushing—but it was necessary to push in Freemasonry , just as in other walks of life .
In proposing the toast of the Worshipful Master the I . P . M . said he did not think a better or more congenial ruler could have been chosen than the Brother then in the chair , and seeing the character he had just had from his father he did not think there was any necessity for him to say anything further except to wish him a hearty and successful year of office . In acknowledgment , the W . M . tendered his thanks . It was just nine years since he first saw the light of Freemasonry in the William Shurmur Lodge , and he fully appreciated the honour that had been conferred upon him in placing him in the proud position of its Worshipful Master .
The W . M . now proposed the toast of his predecessor in the chair . He felt all would agree that Bro . Holland had made a most efficient Master , and all would sympathise with him when they looked back and remembered he had not been blessed with the best of health during his year of mastership , in fact on one occasion he was unable to attend , being ill in bed . They were all delighted to see him in better health . He was particularly pleased to have the privilege of decorating Bro . Holland with the Past Master ' s jewel of the
Lodge , and assured him it was presented with the best wishes of the Brethren . With the toast was coupled the health of the other Past Masters . The W . M . felt no one in the Province of Essex could have performed the ceremony of raising better than their Past Master Speller had done that day ; then there was his " dear old dad , " who he knew had the respect of the Lodge over which
he had presided a few years back ; while as regarded Bros . Shurmur and Kaufman he could only say that he had visited many Lodges , but had never heard the work done better than when it was performed by one of those Brethren . He felt it a great honour that he had been initiated , passed , raised , and now installed by such a splendid Masonic worker as their Past Master Shurmur .
In responding , the I . P . M . heartily thanked the Lodgo for the handsome jewel presented him . That gift marked a great event in his life , and he should always so regard it . He did not expect such a mark of their favour . He could say a very great deal in acknowledgment of their kindness , but felt he must only then say that he most heartily thanked them . Bro . Shurmur said it had indeed been a great pleasure to place so worthy a Mason as their Bro . Walter Fortescue in the chair . He ( Bro . Shurmur )

was the first Master of the Lodge , and Bro . Fortescue the first initiate . He need hardly say how pleased the Lodge would bo to welcome yet another son of their worthy Past Master in the Lodge , and he felt it would be very gratifying to see the Worshipful Mast r initiating his own brother as a member of the Craft . Anothor gratifying feature of the day was to hoar their Brother Barker propose his son for initiation in the Lodge .
Bro . Kaufman tendered thanks yet again for the kind reception accorded him in the Lodge . It had been his pleasure to take an active part in Freemasonry—he took an active part at the consecration of that Lodge , and he believed he had been present at almost every meeting since , at most of them taking some active part in the work . The W . M ., in proposing the Initiate , considered his the most important toast of the series . Without initiates the Lodge would not have made such a name for itself as it now had .
The initiate briefly replied , tendering thanks and saying he had never been so deeply moved in his life as during the ceremony of his admittance as a member of the Masonic body . The Master proposod the toast oE the Visitors , who were very welcome . There had been about forty guests present at tbe meeting , and he was sure the members hoped they had enjoyed themselves so much as to desire to come
again . Speaking of tho Officers the W . M . said the Lodge was fortunate in having so energetic and conscientious a Mason as Bro . Shurmur as its Treasurer . Nothwithstanding the fact that the members had voted one hundred guineas to the Boys School they had a balance of upwards of £ 100 to carry forward . Their Secretary , too , was most painstaking , while the other Officers— all of whom were initiated in the Lodge—gave promise of following in the same good course .
The Tyler concluded the proceedings just at the stroke of " closing time , " which came , in the opinion of many who were present , all too soon . What better evidence could be given of the success of the meeting ? The Visitors included Bros . L . Yexley 1662 , H . Par . ce 1662 , H . E . Trafford J . D . 2511 , E . M . Jeffery P .

Alhambra . —Bro . Dundas Slater has taken advantage of the present electric moment when men ' s minds are full of war , and has engaged Bro . James Fernandez P . M . to recite Mr . Swinburne's stirring poem on " The Transvaal . " The piece is almost too short to have a good dramatic effect , but Bro . Fernandez gives a little introduction of his own , and his splendid recital evokes thunders of applause as he pronounces the last words " Strike
England , but strike home . " The recitation is followed by a selection of English Airs played by the magnificent orchestra , and includes " Hearts of Oak , " and other patriotic songs , and winds up with " Rule Britannia , " the enthusiasm of the audience making the roof resound . The pretty ballet " Napoli " is the latest addition to the attractiveness of this popular house of entertainment and is peculiarly pleasing and lively .
