THE ROYAL MASONIC INSTITUTION FOR BOYS . To the Editor of the F BEEMASON ' S CHRONICLE . DEAUSIRAND BROTHER , —I will not be led astray from the main issues by following the Chairman of the Inquiry Committee in hia travels oa personal matters . The Chairman ' s letter has pat before the Subscribers the Inquiry Committee ' s idea of their authority aud

the mode in which they proceeded to work . Truth we all seek for , but the House Committee do not think it will be fonnd by searching for it through unreliable and tainted witnesses , verbal correction of statements , and the partial setting out of facts . Putting it shortly , their view appears to be that ; they were to be a secret Old Bailey

tribunal , governed by " Crowner ' s-quest Law , " throwing to the winds the spirit of Masonry with its traditions and sympathies . " Tace " used to mean be silent of a fault of a brother . The Inquiry Committee ' s new rendering is wash all your dirty linen in public . The idea of those who appointed them was , that the Inquiry

Committee should act in open Conrt as Masons , investigating the affairs of a Masonic Institntion , taking care that no injury came to the Institntion , which they were bound to protect . No one can deny that their Report has done an incalculable amount of harm , and has unjustifiably raised the bitterest personal feeling against the members

of the Old Committees , and has turned aside from the Institntion many of the oldest and hardest working subscribers . Let us then snm up tho vermin case . Tbe House Committee are pleased to find thafc the Inquiry Committee , by their Chairman , now say "thafc on the vermin question the House Committee was not

implicated . " "Why did they not say this in their report P How does the case stand even against the officials ? The Inquiry Committee admit now thafc they have affixed this stjirma of vermin on fche School on the evidence of one man . He is a Master , dismissed by the House Committee , and his evidence is

tainted with a most maligaufc bias against them . He could not say whether he saw one or two cases ; he conld not mention the time , place , or name of the boy affected , or the name of any boy who had seen vermin on any other boy in term time . He only launches this trumped-up lie when before the Inquiry Committee , to delude them , and he was entirely uncorroborated except by the " unreliable "

witness . The matron denied that this state of things over did occur afc any time when the officials were responsible . She is corroborated in this denial by tho head master , tho surgeon , the hair cutter ( with
