Royal Clarence Lodge, No. 1823.

ROYAL CLARENCE LODGE , No . 1823 .

FROM THE EAST ANGLIAN DAILY TIMES . THE members of tbe Royal Clarence Lodge at Clare are now to be congratulated upon the distinguished honour of having H . R . H . the Duke of Albany to preside over fcfaem , his Royal Highness having graciously signified his acceptance of the office of Worshipfnl Master , and appointed Bro . Major-General Cecil Ives , the S . W . of

tho Lodge , to act as his Deputy . The Royal Clarence is comparatively a now Lodge , being numbered 1823 on the roll of the Grand Lodge of England ; bnt it has npon its books many old and valued members of the Craft who have done good service , nofc only for their Lodge , but also for fche Province of Suffolk , and for Freemasonry in general . Amoncrsfc these wo trust we shall nofc be invidious if wn

Grand Steward of Oxon , and many other prominent Masons . The Lodge takes its name from the Earl of Clarence , a title which tho Duke of Albany derives from the Clare family , from which house the anninnf . and

interesting town of Clare , obtains its name , and ifc will therefore be seen that there was a fitness in the choice which the Lodge made , as well as a gracioueness in the acceptance of the office of W . M . b y His Royal Highness . The installation of Bro . Major-General Cecil Ives as Deputy Master took place on the 8 th inst . The Lodge was held afc the Masonic Hall , Clare , and was largely attended .

Lodge was opened in ancient form , after which the business was proceeded with . At its conclusion the retiring W . M ., Bro . Chas . Henry Vincent , thanked the Officers and members for the manner in which they had snpported him during tbe past year . The Depnty Prov . Grand Master then proceeded to instal Bio . Major-General Cecil Ives as Deputy Master under a Warrant from Bro . H . R . H . the
