MARK MASONRY .

PRINCE LEOPOLD LODGE , No . 238 . AMONGST the many Mark Lodges of the Metropolis there are few that present features of more solid progress and stability than that which bears tbe name of the youngest son of the revered Patroness of the Craft . Tuesday of last week witnessed the annual installation gathering , when there was a goodly assemblage of the brethren and visitors , under the presidency of Bro . Thomas R . Richnell P . P . G . S . B . of Middlesex and Surrey , the esteemed Worshipfnl

Master , who was supported by Bro . Sir Charles Palmer , Bart ., Past Prov . G . S . O . Middlesex and Surrey S . W ., J . H . Dodson J . W ., and many other Officers and brethren . Lodge having been opened in accordance with ancient formalities , Bro . Sir Charles Palmer , who had discharged the duties of the Senior Warden's chair during the year with exemplary zeal , was presented as the Worshipfnl Master

elect , and was duly installed by Bro . Colonel Wiggintoo P . P . G . S . O ., assisted by Bros . T . Walls P . G . S . B . and Alfred Tisley P . G . S . O . The newly installed Master having been sainted with the customary honours , invested bis Officers for the ensuing year , as follows : —Bros . T . R . Richnell I . P . M ., J . H . Dodson S . W . and Treasurer , F . Farring . ton J . W ., W . E . Farrington M . O ., C . Brown S . O ., T . 0 . Harding J . O .,

Colonel Wigginton Secretary , F . Clemow S . D ., W . H . Saunders J . D ., G . H . Dodd I . G ., R . Clemow D . C . F . Chambers W . S . Some matters of Formal business having been transacted , cordial votes of thanks were passed to the retiring Worshipful Master , for the manner in which he had studied the interests of the Lodge during the past year , and to the Installing Officer—the compliments being duly acknowledged .

At the conclusion of the business the brethren and visitors partook of a sumptuous banquet , provided in a style for which Bro . Clemow's old-established hotel has ever been proverbial , and dessert having been placed before the guests , the customary Loyal and Mark Masonio toasts were duly honoured . Bro . Richnell , in proposing the health of the newly-installed Worshipfnl Master , expressed the

pleasure which the brethren must all feel in seeing the Hon . Baronet so far recovered from bis recent serious illness as to be enabled to appear once more amongst the members of the Lodge . No one felt greater disappointment than he ( tbe speaker ) did at Sir Charles being in such a condition of health as prevented him from taking the honoured position of fifth Master of the Leopold Lodge at their last

meeting . He trusted , however , that the Hon . Baronet might enjoy as happy and prosperoas a year of office as he ( Bro . Richnell ) had done , and that the same good feeling might continue to exist amongst all who were in any way connected with the Lodge . Bro . Sir Charles Palmer , in acknowledging the compliment paid to him , said it was a source of genuine gratification to him to be received with suoh

kindness and courtesy as he had been on all occasions , and he thanked them heartily for the honour they had that evening conferred upon him . He could assure them that nothing shonld be wanting on bis part to advance the prosperity of the Leopold Lodge , and to uphold the prestige it had BO deservedly enjoyed in the past . The health of the Officers of the Lodge was given from the chair , and in response Bro . J . H .

Dodson , as Treasurer , congratulated the brethren upon the satisfactory condition of the finances of the Ledge , and expressed his conviction that a long career of harmony and prosperity was in store for the Leopold Lodge . Several other complimentary toasts were honoured , the proceedings being enlivened by some excellent vocal

and instrumental music , to which Bros . T . Walls , A . Tisley and other brethren contributed , whilst the recitation of Hood ' s poem on "The Lady's Dream , " by tbe Worshipful Master , elicited the heartiest expressions of appreciation from all present . Altogether a most harmonious and enjoyable evening was passed .
