Installation Meetings, &C.

to Bro . Abraham . To give him a jewel might ; be considered somewhat out of place , as he was so well provided in that respect already ; therefore , the brethren had decided to make him a present which he could uso on other than Masonio occasions , and had accordingly selected a biscuit-box , whioh they hoped would be acceptable . The box , whioh was very neat , was suitably engraved , the following boing the wording of the inscription : —

Presented to BROTHER SAMUEL VICTOR ABRAHAM P . M . By the Brethren of The Montefiore Lodgo , 1017 . He was one of its Founders , And twice served tho office of Worshipful Master . January 1882 .

That inscription expressed , the Master said , better than any words of his could possibly do , the sentiments and feelings of the members . In presenting it they one and all offered ifc as a very small token of the respect which they all felt for their I . P . M . Although ho had ceased to be Master of the Lodgo ho would never cease to be one of its brightest ornaments . Bro . Abraham replied . Ho had

had the pleasure on many previous occasions to address the Lodge , and without being egotistical , he thought he had been able to speak to tho subject , but he now felfc that he could nofc express himself as he should do . That he desired to say mnch , all would believe ; that ho was unable to say a small part of what he could wish , ho assured them . Briefly , he thanked them most heartily and honestly ; ho

could but refer to their kind expressions of sympathy in tho past when he had been unable to be with them ; and , feeling that the aympathy was genuine , he considered ifc his duty to acknowledge it . The Master then proposed the toast of the Visitors , to which several of the guests responded . The other toasts were—the Past Masters , the Treasnrer and Secretary ,

the Officers , and "All Poor and Distressed Brethren . " A good musical selection was provided , under the direction of Bro . Lindsay Sloper ; the artistes being Miss Isabella Stone , and Mr . J . AV . Thompson ; Bro . Chas . Brabam also favoured the company with a song . Among the Visitors were Bros . Rev . C . J . Martyn P . G . C . Deputy Prov . G . M . Suffolk , J . Lewis Thomas P . A .
