He felt that it wonld be a grave , if not an unpardonable , omission on his part if he allowed the brethren to depart without ex . pressing his feelings and notifying his appreciation of their services . They had instances that evening of the desirability of every brother being " a wise Master Mason " and fully instructed in every degree . The proceedings ended , at an early hour , with the Tyler ' s toasfc .
