THE Freemasons of West Yorkshire assembled in largo numbers on Saturday last to attend tho funeral of onr departed brother . Most of tho Lodges of the Province were represented by some of their members , many travelling considerable distances to pay a last tribute of respect to the memory of this distingnished Mason . Before being marshalled into processional order , the brethren wero addressed by the Provincial Grand Master , Sir Henry Edwards , who after stating
that he did not intend to formally open a Lodge , said : —I cannot allow this occesion to pass without first saying a word or two with regard to the very sad loss wo havo sustained by tho death of our friend and brother Bentley Shaw . I do not know any mau in the county of York who was more respected than ho was , especially in his own immediate district , whero ho was so thoroughly
beloved by all men , women , and children , and moro especially by his Masonic brethren , that I do not see that we can ever "look npon his liko again . " He was always kind and conrteons to everybody . If a man had him for his friend ho had seenred a friend for lifo . But wo all know perfectly that what has happened to him mnst happen to ns all—in a very short span ,
probably , everyone of us will bo called henco to the presence of his Maker , and I do besoech you all—I entreat you—I do not want to read you a sermon—to make the best of your timo whilst it remains to yon . Tho timo is short , and tho nearer we approach to our destinies the more seriously wo onght to think . This is indeed a very sad ceremony , for wo have been accustomed so long to look
upon his benevolent face , and to see the manner in which he treated us . As a father no man ever surpassed him in affection . One of tho greatest blows ho ever received in life was by the death of his eldest son , and I do not think he evor got over it . I am now about to go and see his widow—I dread tho ordeal . Wo are all subject to unpleasantness of this kind ; I say unpleasantness , because it is
pecnliarly painfnl to my feelings ; but it is our duty that we should submit to everything Providence has fore-ordered . All I can say is that I shall give to tho widow an assurance of the best feeling towards her and her children ; I shall give her an assurance that each and all of yon ; that no class of men on tho face of tbo earth moro truly sympathise and condole with her than the brethren of
West Yorkshire . With these few words , Brethren , I think for tho present we will say adieu . Bro . T . W . Tew J . P . D . P . G .
