ROYAL MASONIC BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION .
A SECOND meeting of the Board of Stewards for the approaching Festival of tbe Royal Masonio Benevolent Institution was held on Thursday last , at Freemasons' Hall . Tho minutes of the previous meeting having been disposed of , it was announced that permission had been received that the Grand Hall might be used for a concert
on the evening of tho Festival . The thanks of the meeting were recorded for such gracious permission . The other business of the meeting comprised tho discussion of musical arrangements , the
appointment of special Stewards , and the ballot for places at tho Festival , & c . The work being completed , the meeting was closed by a vote of thanks to the chairman .
Tho regulations to be observed ou the day of tho Festival are a follows : — 1 . —That each Steward do attend on tho day of the Festival at Five o ' clock , that proper arrangements may be made for the reception aud convenience of the Brethren .
2 . —That each Steward remain at his own table , and endeavour to prevail on the brethren under his banner to cease all conversation during the speeches and singing . 3 . —That during the speeches , each Steward keep his seat , so as not to interrupt the view of the speaker .
4 . —That each ladies Steward do appoint a brother of his own Lodge to act for him at the table during his necessary absence , with a request to conform to the preceding regulations . y . —Tli . 'H no brother be allowed in the Ladies' gallery , except the Inilit's' Stewards .
(> . — - i ! t ; it no lady be permitted to be introduced into the dining hall . 7 . —That for the sake of convenience the Stewards are requested
to prepare thoir ] several lists in the early part of the evening ( if they have not previously sent them in ) , and deliver them to the Secretary or Collector of the Institution . This arrangement will save much confusion .
How TO PROVE A Win . —Now the first step to be taken in " prov ing " is to ascertain who is the executor . There may be two or even more executors ; they will probably be expressly named by the document itself , but not necessarily so , for there is sometimes an " executor according to the tenor " of the will . Let us suppose that two executors have been so appointed , and that both are willing to
undertake the duties . The title of the executors is founded upon their testator ' s written will , and the latter also contains tho specific rules and limits of their conduct in administering the estate ; so that some act obviously requires to be done to give the will a legal stamp aud currency , and to afford evidence of the authority of the executors . This act is called " proving a will . " The executors have to be
sworn to a document called an oath , which identifies the " paper writing" annexed to it as the original will of the testator , and which declares that tho deponents ( or the persons taking tho oath ) are the executors named in such will , that they will well and faithfully administer the estate ; that the testator died at such a place on such a day ; and that the personal estate does not exceed so much . They
also make an alfidavit for the purposes of tbe Inland Revenue Offictas to the amount of tho testator ' s gross personal estate , so that the proper ad valorem stamp-duty may be paid . Tho original will is then deposited in the Court of Probate , and a compared copy of it , written on parchment , with the official seal attached , called the probate copy ,
is given to the executors as their title deed , so to speak . Before probate , however , the executors may perform all the ordinary acts ol administering a will , such as receiving and giving receipts for debts clue to the testator , paying his debts , and selling and assigning anj part of his personal estate . —From " Popular Papers on English Law , " u Cassll ' s Magazine ,
