Notice Of Meetings.
T . Bowler Tyler . There was a large nnmber of visitors present . The brethren , after the closing of the Lodge , adjourned to a sumptuous banquet , and then honoured the enstomary toasts . Bro . Dunn in proposing the VV . M ., said he deferred to no man in his admiration of the W . M . To speak of his good points would take a longer time than the brethren wonld care about . The W . M . had
spoken of tho good the Prince of Wales had done on behalf of Masonry , but coming to Lodges on the south side of London , he doubted if any brother had done more for the good of Masonry than the W . M . of the Rye Lodge . The brethren knew what he did on the last occasion of the Festival of the Girls' School : he took up 200 gnineas then . That was an extraordinary performance for a local
brother , perhaps it had never been excelled . The Lodge had to congratulate itself on having suoh a brother in the chair . He knew the W . M . would do a deal of good for the Rye Lodge . If the brethren would attend regularly they would see his splendid working in Masonry . In Bro . Cock they had the best man any Lodge inside or outside London could possibly have . The W . M . replying , after
" Excelsior" had been sung , said it reminded him tbat lately he had been travelling in Switzerland , and he came on a glacier which was not considered dangerous . His companion , who he would call Noch ' em , asked him why he did not go on . He told Nooh ' em it did not matter if he went on and was buried alive afc the bottom of tjhe Alps , but it did matter to him , as he had to be installed in a
fortnight . Turning to the toasts he said it was by the goodness of the I . P . M ., wbo made him S . W ., that he had been elected W . M . He was proud of the position , as the . Rye Lodge was the Lodge of his adoption , a Lodge consecrated in his immediate neighbourhood , and a Lodge whioh he should endeavour to support , uphold and maintain to the best of his ability . Long life gave opportunity and occasion
to many faults , but the brethren ' s charity that night would forget and forgive them . He hoped during his year of office nothing would mar or ohill the year of happiness whioh had just been initiated , and at the end of his year the brethren , he trusted , would have no occasion to regret having elected Bro . Cook . The W . M . then proposed the I . P . M ., prefacing his remarks by saying that
when the brethren elected Bro . Dunn , they expected great things of bim . They had nofc been disapointed , but on the contrary had been highly gratified . Bro . Dann had steered the Rye Lodge throngh tbe past year with great cleverness and ability , and had arrived that night at tho termination of a mosfc successf ul year . Thafc was not more than the brethren had expected , because their I . P . M . had done
well ; he had passed through several chairs , and had had a most excellent training . The members of the Rye Lodge had had the benefit of it , and they were proud of their I . P . M ., not only as the I . P . M . of the Rye Lodge , bufc as an old resident in the parish , an old neighbour , and an old , true , and sincere friend . He was one of tbe first to take an interest in fche formation of the Lodge , and his
interest had not relaxed for a single moment . Personally he was very muoh indebted to Bro . Dunn for fche manner in whioh he bad arranged everything thafc night . Ifc mnsfc have been a great deal of trouble to him to see that everything was in as perfect order as could be expected , and the brethren were very grateful to him for regulating everything with suoh care and precision . He had now to
present a P . M . s jewel , voted to him by tbe Lodge ; he had richly earned it , and he wonld value it not for its intrinsic worth . No Mason could wear a jewel with a device on it of such meaning better than Bro . Dnnn , ho would think of the problem and the lessons whioh it taught , and he would carry out thoso lessons in their entirety , and become a more brilliant member of the Craffc than even he now was .
Bro . Dunn regretted ho did nofc deserve all that the W . M . had said of bim , but he had tried to do his bost . If he had pleased the brethren he was satisfied . The song just given was , " Fare thee well . " That was appropriate . It was not "Farewell , " which was tantamount to " Good-bye , " bufc " Fare thee well "—might he fare well himself and his Lodge likewise . It would not be his fault if the Lodge did nofc
fare well . Bro . Cock had spoken highly of him , bnt although he had done tbat , he hoped ifc was not more than he tried to deserve . He could not do more than that . Whatever was required of him in the Lodge they might be sure he would always be to the fore . He was pleased to see the W . M . in the chair , aud congratulated himself on having preceded him . If he had had to follow him , their brethren
would probably have said , " Bro . Dunn , yon have done badly . He had got between two good working Masters , and he was convinced that this year the Brethren wonld have a Masonic treat . He thanked the brethren for the jewel voted to him , and wonld hand it down to his son , and might he do better than his father . Bros . Wilson , Dr . Horrocks , and others responded to the toast of " The Visitors . " ihe
W . M . gave " The Installing Master . " He was deeply impressed with the manner in which Bro . Dewsnap had performed the installation ceremony , and he should rooietnber ib with pleasure aud satisfaction . The Lodge was very proud of Bro . Dewsnap , and they thought he should take a prominent part in the working of it . Bro . Dewsnap said it had given him great pleasure to enhance the working that
evening . He felt that he was undertaking a duty nofc only of some "lagnitade , but one which he was scarcely capable of performing . His business had prevented him giving tbe attention to getting np the ceremony which he could have wished , but as the W . M . was satisfied with it , thafc was enough . Bros . Price , Perrins , and Pownall responded to the toast of "The Musical Visitors , " Bro . Dunn I . P . M .
for "The Masonic Charities , " and tbe Treasnrer and Secretary respectively replied to the joint toast proposed in their honour . The Officers having replied to tbeir toasfc , " All poor and distressed Masons , " followed , and the proceedings terminated The supurb musical entertainment which was provided between the speeches was Kiven by Bros . William Price , F . Swinford , E . Pownall , W . T . Perrins , W . T . Warner , and W . S . Proe .
