Bannell were passed to the degree of Fellow Craft , and the third degree was conferred on Brother Samuel

Harry Barrow . After some routine work , Lodge was olosed . Previous to the banquet , and while the Secretary was arranging his papers , the brethren re-entered the Lodge room , headed by Brother P . T . Brearey P . M ., who acted as spokesman for the occasion . Bro . Brearey stated that their worthy Secretary doubtless anticipated that the members of the Lodge had finished with him for

that evening . Bnt he ( Bro . Brearey ) was pleased to say there was something more to be done ; and a gratifying duty had been en . trusted to him . He wonld therefore ask Bro . Swan to accept , in testimony of the esteem in which he is held by the members , an illuminated vellum , the inscription upon which he would read , as follows : —

EMBLEMATIC LODGE OF AOTIENT FREE AND ACCEPTED MASONS , ENGLAND , No . 1321 .

This Testimonial was presented to BRO . GEORGE FREDERICK SWAN , Past Master , Secretary and Founder of the above Lodge , on the 15 th March 1883 , as a record of the great esteem and regard in which he is held by the

members ; as atestimony to his unvarying urbanity and integrity , and in appreciation of'his'assiduous 'attention to ' his various ' Masonic duties . 1 WALTER JOHN FORREST W . M . WILLUM BARNES FENDICK S . W . HENRY SAMUEL HUNTER" J . W .

On hearing this inscription read , and receiving at the hands of Bro . Brearey the elegant Testimonial , Bro . Swan , who appeared completely taken by surprise , was about to speak , when Bro . Brearey said , he would crave his attention a little longer . The brethren who desired to do honour to' their zealous and energetio Secretary , ' had likewise commissioned him to ask Bro . ' Swan' to acbept a purse ,

and he was authorised to say that the amount it contained had been subscribed privately ; not a-penny had been taken from their Lodge Funds . In handing it over , he begged Bro . Swan to accept' it in the spirit in which it was offered , —asa slight recognition of'many and invaluable services rendered by him during the thirteen years he had

been associated with the Lodge . After this graceful compliment had been fervently , but in brief terms , acknowledged' by Bro . Swan , the brethren partook of a capital banqnet , where the after proceedings were of an exceptionally agreeable character . We may add that Bro . Swan was the first W . M , of the Emblematic Lodge , and on leaving the chair was appointed Secretary , whioh post he has "filled ever since .
