Wallington Lodge, No. 1892.
' •That a Past Master's jewel of the value of five guineas be presented by the Lodge to Brother E . Dickman , in recognition of his valuable services during his year of offioe as Worshipful Master" —was unauimously agreed to , while another notice of motion , that affected the bye-laws , was deferred , in order that a fuller consideration of its
merits might be entered into on an occasion more favourable as regards exigencies of time . Brother Arnold now took the chair and nominated Brother Horsey P . M . as S . W . and Brother Gibbs P . M . as J . W . respectively , for the ceremony of the day . Brother Baldwin wa 3 presented , and in due course installed in the chair of the Lodge .
On the re-entry of the brethren the Officers were appointed , as under : —Bros . Bishop S . W ., Carter J . W ., Crowe P . M . Treas ., Mesrouze P . M . Sec , Bassett S . D ., Weal J . D ., Sawyer P . M . D . C , Filmer I . G ., Harwood S ., Aslett Org ., Rowley Tyler . After the addresses had been delivered , Brother Arnold , who had conducted the ceremony
throughout most impressively , was heartily thanked for his services . Brother Dickman was formally presented with the P . M . ' s jewel , and then the next feature was to ballot for Mr . John Rewcastle—who was proposed by Brother Bassett and seconded by Broth er Aslettas a candidate for initiation . The result was favourable , and Bro .
Baldwin conducted the ceremony in favour of Mr . Rgwcastle with the most perfect regard to detail , and by his impressiveness produced a marked effect upon the candidate . Soon afterwards Lodge was closed . The banquet was given at the Greyhound Hotel , Carshalton , and it was served in excellent style by Brother Verdun . On the
removal of the cloth the W . M . gave the first toast—Her Majesty the Queen and the Craft—which was most loyally responded to . After the National Anthem , the W . M ., in proposing the health of the M . W . the Grand Master , called attontion to the fact that the Prince of Wales was essentially a Master in the Craffc . This would be readily
recognised from the fact that he had taken upon himself the duty of initiating his eldest son into the ranks of Masonry . The Prince was earnest in all he undertook , and he ( the W . M . ) had great pleasure in offering the toast for the acceptance of the brethren . In speaking of the Pro Grand Master , the Deputy Grand Master , and the rest of
the Grand Officers , Bro . Baldwin drew attention to the zeal these brethren displayed in the fulfilment of their duties . This was especially evidenced by Bro . Arnold , who spared no effort to promote the best interests of Freemasonry . In reply the Deputy Provincial Grand Master thanked the brethren for the way they had received
the toast of the Leaders of the Craft . Many of those present had been in Grand Lodge , and could testify to the interest taken by those Leaders in the fulfilment of their duties . In their names he thanked the brethren for the reception they had given the toast . In speaking of the Right Worshipful the Provincial Grand Master
General Brownrigg , the Worshipful Master only desired he could command words sufficient to recount the praises of the Provincial Grand Master , who was beloved and respected by all in the Province . The next toast was the health of the Very Worshipful Bro . the Rev . W . C Arnold , M . A ., P . G . Chaplain and Deputy Prov . Grand Master
for Surrey , and the Officers of Provincial Grand Lodge , Present and Past . In response Bro . Arnold said that when ho replied for the Grand Officers he did so in general terms , as Deputy Provincial Grand Master he felt he was getting nearer home . He was proud in being able to state that Freemasonry in Surrey was progressing in every
way . He had now had eight years' experience with the brethren , and in that period he only knew one instance of anything unpleasant having arisen , and then tho difficulty had been surmounted with tho exercise of a few words . It was eminently gratifying to know that there was a uniformity adopted in the working ; that proper attention
was given to this in the several Lodges of Instruction . The members of the Province were earnest in their efforts on behalf of the Charities of the Order . He urged the brethren to support the Charity organisation that had been established , aud to make the most of their voting powers . He forcibly
impressed on them the desirability of exercising proper caution in the admission of candidates . He looked back with pleasure to the day of the consecration of the Wallington Lodge , on which occasion he had acted as Principal Officer . He had perhaps not been wilh them so frequently as he could have
wished , but this might be acconnted for by the fact that there was a mutual arrangement with the Provincial Grand Master that they should each confine themselves , to some extent ; to a district . Bro . Arnold theu made happy reference to the way in which he found the Lodge was carrying on its work , and to the ability displayed by
the present Master , and concluded a most interesting address by proposing Bro . Baldwin ' s health . This compliment was modestly replied to by tho W . M ., who seempd intensely gratified at the recep . tion given by the brethren to the toast . The Initiate , Bro . Rewcastle , acknowledgpd the toast given in his honour ;
he trusted he might always appreciate the favonr conferred on him by electing him a member of tho Order . For the Visitors Bros . Gibbs , Major Williams , Greenwood , Smith , Vincent , and others replied . Several other toasts followed , and when the Tyler was
summoned all were agreed a most harmonious meeting had beou celebrated . During the evening a capital programme of songs was gone through ; Bros . Crowe , Carter , Bishop , Gibbs , Tite , Frayling , and Maspero rendering good service . Bro . Morgan contributed one of his popular recitations .
