voted by the Lodgo . Affcer whioh Bro . Fendick Worshipfnl Master in addressing Bro . Breary Past Master ( the late Treasnrer ) , said he now had a very great pleasure in presenting him with a testimonial , unanimously voted by the Lodge . From the remarks made by the brethren at the last meeting , he ( Bro . Brearey ) could nofc be insensible to the very general feeling of regret expressed by the

members ; how sorry they one and all were at the thought of losing him as their Treasnrer , an office which he had held from the formation of the Lodge to the present time , the duties of which he had so efficiently and satisfactorily carried out . He sincerely trusted that Bro . Brearey would still remain with them , in fact he might say the Lodge would appear quite lost without the familiar face of Bro .

Brearey . The address , whioh waa beautifully inscribed on vellum , was to the following effect : —Emblematic Lodge of Ancient , Free , and Accepted Masons , England , No . 1321 . This testimonial was presented to Bro . Plnmmer Thomas Brearey Past Master , No . 26 , Past Grand Steward , Treasnrer and Founder of the above Lodge , on the 17 th January 1884 , on his retirement from the office of Treasurer , as

a record of the great esteem and regard in whioh he is held by fche members , as a testimony to bis unvarying urbanity and integrity , and in appreciation of the long and valuable services he has rendered to the Emblematic Lodge . Walter John Forrest W . M . William Barnes Fendick S . W . Henry Samuel Hunter J . W .

When the applause of the brethren had subsided , Bro . Brearey rose to acknowledge the testimonial . He thanked the Worshipfnl Master for his too flattering remarks , and the brethren for their very handsome testimonial . His labour had been a labour of love ; he had constantly been assisted by the Officers , especially the worthy Secretary ; it was not without a pang he relinquished his official duties ,

but a time must come when he would have to sever himself from the office . He thought thafc a Treasnrer ranked as a sort of permanent Cabinet Minister , and that in advising the Past Masters and brethren , he ought always to be one actively and sincerely interested in the welfare of the Lodge . Tho testimonial he should always prize , and leave

it as an heirloom to his children as a record of acknowledgment thafc ho had tried to do his duty . The Lodge was then closed . The brethren afterwards safc down to a very excellent banquet , served by Bro . Buxton , the worthy host , in a very satisfactory style . Thus ended ono of the most successful and pleasant meetings this Lodge has ever held .
