Provincial Grand Lodge Of Suffolk.
associated with such a toast was in no way lessened . On behalf ol himself—and ho thought he conld speak for the other Worshipful Masters of the Province—he had made a point of doing all that lay in his power to promote the welfare of the Lodge over which he had been called upon to preside , aud he hoped and believed that future Masters would do their best to emulate , aud , if possible ,
. surpass tho efforts of himself and thoso at present occupying a similar position . Lord Waveney then gave the Charities of the Order , and in doing so spoke in tho warmest terms of the usefulness and extent of the work thoy were doing , as well as of the admirable manner in which their affairs were administered . Bro . Terry thanked his lordship for the kind terms in which he had
proposed tho toast , and expressed himself as highly gratified with the result of his exertions for next year's Festival of the Benevolent Institution . Ho had already , he remarked , secured the services of three Suffolk brethren to act as Stewards for 1881 , and ono of these , Bro . Lucia , had undertaken to servo in thafc capacity nt the Festivals of all three Charities . He
referred in complimentary terms to tho liberality of the Provincial Grand Lodge that dny , as illustrated by their vote of Twenty Guineas to tho Benevolent Fund , to bo placed on tho Depnty Grand Master ' s list , and Ten Guineas each to tho Boys' and Girls' Schools . He recounted at somo length what had beon and was being done by theso Institutions , and congratulated those present on the
determination they had arrived at to convert their terminable votes into votes in perpetuity . He urged upon them tho necessity of establishing an energetic system of organization by which , whenever they had a candidato on tho list of applicants , they might be able to carry his election , pointing out how imperative it was they should have some such system , and how difficult—if nofc impossible—it would
bo for them ever to get their candidate without one , if tho London Voting Association shonld establish itself permanently . He added somo useful advice as to tho steps they should take to set such an organization on foot . Ho pointed out how desirable it was , seeing that some Suffolk brethren were airong tho recipients of the benefits conferred by the Benevolent Institution , the members of the different
Lodges in tho Province should extend a liberal support to that Institution ; and he concluded a most excellent speech by referring in most eulogistic terms to Bro . Body ' s efforts as Steward in February . With tho health of the Visitors was , in the first instance , associated fho name of Brother Dorling , but thafc esteemed brother who is a Past Grand Secretary of the Province , disclaimed all title to the
honour of responding for tho toast . It was trne , he said , that his business engagements had necessitated a change of residence , so that in that sense he might be regarded as a visitor , but as one who had enjoyed the honour of being a Grand Officer of the Province , he was with them heart and soul as a brother . Bro . Higgs , therefore , took upon himself to acknowledge the compliment paid the brethren from
other parts of the country , and in obedience to a special call , Bro . W . W . Morgan supplemented that brother ' s remarks , his humorous reference to that portion of the minntes of the Prov . Board of General Purposes , which referred to the consumption of wine at the Prov . Grand Lodge banquets being received with great merriment . Bro . Ardley acknowledged , iu sympathetic terms , the toast of " The
Ladies , " and expressed the gratification he felt at having the honour of replying on their behalf entrusted to him . Bro . Ardley , we believe , is on the eve of taking unto himself a wife . It was , therefore , in tho order of things that he should speak nofc only sympathetically , but eloquently , on behalf of the fair sex . Doubtless when Bro . Ardley has consummated his wishes he will speak
with a more intimate knowledge of their many virtues , whilo his remarks will be less generally applicable than they wero on this occasion . Among the other toasts honoured was that of " The Masonic Press , with which was connected the name of Bro . W . W . Morgan , whose brief remarks , in acknowledgment of the compliment paid him , were extremely well received .
Even the longest and most enjoyable day , however , must come to an end , and Wednesday , the dies / asius of our Suffolk brethren , proved no exception . On Thursday morning , brethren from a distance , after a night's rest , departed for their several homes , and the town of Sudbury once again reverted to its normal state of placid contentment . Wo shonld be doing a great injustice to several
brethren who contributed not a little to the pleasures of the meeting if wo omitted to state that the brother who had charge of the musical arrangements , and his able coadjutors , were highly but deservedly complimented for the very admirable manner in which they had fulfilled their portion of tho programme . These wero Bro . Henry Ashton , of the Glee Union , in charge , and Bros . F . J . Cozens—whoso rendering of the well-known song of the
" Woodpecker " was heartily applauded—A . Hubbard , and George Musgrave .

from causes over which they had no control . Bro . T . B . Whytehead then brought forward a subject of which ho had given notice , namel y , the condition of Mark Masonry in the district of North aud East Yorkshire , lie said that some time ago he had moved iu the direction of the formation of a Mark Province for North and East Yorkshire , but the Hull Mark Lodges were opposed to the scheme , which had fallen
through . He was now moro than ever convinced that some steps shonld be taken in tho direction of placing tho Lodges in tho Province under some form of Provincial government . It would , he was satisfied , greatly tend to the advancement of tho degree , and give active brethren an opportunity of obtaining the reward of merit in the shape of Provincial honours , whioh they did nofc afc present pos .
sess . Ho admitted that a Province consisting of four Lodges ( the present number in North aud East Yorkshire ) was not strong , though quite as strong as many others now in flourishing existence , aud he was of opinion that the best plan that could be adopted would be for thoso four Lodges to petition the Grand Mark Lodge to extend the present Provincial Graud Mark Lodge of West Yorkshire over
the whole county , so as to form a powerful Province of the whole of Yorkshire . Many advantages would thereby bo secured , nofc the least being that Provincial Office wonld under such circumstances be much better worth having than iu weak Provinces , where about every other Mark Mason you met wore Provincial clothing . Moreover , a Province of such dimensions wonld have some chance of doing something for
the Charities , whereas a newly-formed and weak Province would probably be in a financially crippled condition for years . He concluded some lengthy remarks by moving , " Thafc in the opinion of this Lodge the time has arrived for considering the question of the status of Mark Masonry in North and East Yorkshire , and of the desirability of attaching tho Lodges to tho Province of West Yorkshire , in order to
form one Province of the whole connty of Yorkshire , and thafc the Secretary be empowered to call a meeting at York , at an early date , of the Masters , Past Masters , Wardens , Overseers , and Secretaries of Mark Lodges in the District , in order to decide upon a course of action in reference thereto . " This resolution was seconded , aud strongly supported by Bro . J . Todd P . M ., Bro . G . Balmford P . M ., and other brethren , and carried unanimously ; a letter also being read from
Bro . Cumberland , entirely approving of the same . Bro . J . Todd then moved , and the J . O . seconded a resolution , which also was carried unanimously , " That so far as this Lodge is concerned , ifc is strongly in favour of obtaining the sanction of the Grand Mark Lodge of England to be attached to the Province of West Yorkshire . " A candidate for advancement was proposed , and the Lodge was closed at 8-30 p . m .
