Masonic Banquet At Wimbledon Camp.

MASONIC BANQUET AT WIMBLEDON CAMP .

A YERY interesting and novel event took place on Wednesday evening , 21 st July , at the Camp , Wimbledon , which was an invitation banquet to the Indian and Colonial brethren in Camp , given by the Worshipful Master and brethren of the Royal Arthur Lodge , No . 1360 . This was a spontaneons and generous movement

on the part of Brother W . N . Wingfield W . M ., and the brethren of the Royal Arthur Lodge , meeting at the Prince of Wales Hotel , Wimbledon , to do honour to those visitors from India aud the Colonies in Camp , who wero Masons , and to whom invitations were freely given . The banquet took place at the Pavilion in the Camp ,

and the catering of Bro . Bertram left nothing to be desired . Amongst those present were : Bros . Reeves and Leech , of the Indian team ; Sergeant-Major Le Page , Gnernsey ; Priestman , Jersey ; Captain Adams and Private Mitchell , Canada ; Reeves P . M . ; Bird Treasurer ; Major Tolley S . W ., Cranmer , W . S . Heath ,. Baud Master Watkins

P . M . ; while the Press was represented by Bros . H . Thompson P . M . and P . Z ., R . Hancock , Bebbington , and others . At the conclusion of the banquet , Bro . Wingfield W . M ., who presided , gave the Queen and tho Craft , which was duly honoured , and afterwards the health of His Royal Highness tho Prince of Wales Grand Master of Masons ,

and in doing BO said a few days ago he had the pleasnre and privilege of being present when his Royal Highness installed his brother , the Duke of Connaught , as Provincial Grand Master of Sussex , and certainly nothing conld be more trnly Masonic than the way in which he threw off all reserve upon that occasion , leaving all royalty

except his title behind him , and completely identifying himself with the brethren by -whom he was surrounded , and exemplifying the true principles of Freemasonry . The toasfc was enthusiastically responded to . The Worshipfnl Master said if the next toast was his last , is was by no means the least , as it was the health of the Visitors . Their

Indian and Colonial brethren had come amongst them at great in . convenience and at a large charge upon their funds from all parts of the globe , and the brethren of the Royal Arthur Lodge thought that would be a fitting time to give them an entertainment in the mother country , and he trusted that when they left they would go away

With some pleasing recollections of Wimbledon Camp and the Royal Arthur Lodge . He asked the brethren to drink to the health of their Indian and Colonial visitors , and coupled with the toast the representatives of the Press . The toast was most cordially received . Captain Adams , of the Canadian team , said the reception they had

Eiet with wherever they had been far exceeded his most sanguine expectations , and he should feel delighted if ho should again come to Wimbledon , a 3 he was sure ho shonld always meet with a kindly reception . Sergeant-Major Le Page , from Guernsey , and Sergeant P riestman , from Jersey , severally returned thanks . Ou a cali for a

response on the part of the Press , Bro . If . Thompson P . M . said he wished the task had fallen npon some other brother , who could moro ably and more adequately return thanks for tho toast which had been Proposed . However , aa he was the oldest member of tho Pro 33 then present , having attended every meeting of the Association sinco it

was instituted and initiated by Her Majesty in 1 S 60 , he fell ; it an honour to havo his name associated with the toast , however inefficientl y he might reply to ifc . He certainly congratulated tho Worship | nl Master and the brethren of the Royal Arthur Lodge on tho truly generous and Masonic hospitality with which they had received their

'Khan and Colonial visitors and the members of the Press , and as the I'giuatora of this fraternal gathering he felt snre that ifc would form e commencement of an era , and would ever redound to tho honour

u ^ the Royal Arthur Lodge , and at the same time form red-letter day in its history . Having initiated this meeting—to 3 e a Masonic term—he felt certain that it would bo followed and "uafced at future meetings of tho Wimbledon Camp . Some yeara

Masonic Banquet At Wimbledon Camp.

ns : o , when there were theatrical performances , concerts , and camp fires in the Camp after the business of tho day , he had suggested to hia brother Ma ons who were present that they should endeavour to get up a meeting of Freemasons in the Camp , but it being then urged that such a meetinu ; would lose its interest miless they could hold a

Lodi » e , and as there was no place in which to hold it that could be properly tiled , for this and other reasons the idea was abandoned , and it had been left for the Royal Arthur Lodge after the lapse of many years to carry that idea into effect . Ho thanked the brethren for the kindness with which tho toast had been received . They had

that night mot on the level , and like good Masons , he hoped that whenever they met they wonld always part on tho square . Bro . R . Hancock and Bro . Bebbinarton , both of the Gallery Lodge , also returned thanks ; tho former alluding to a visit ho recently paid to Jersey for the benefit of his health , and speaking in warm terms of

the kindness ho had received in tho four Lodges on thafc island The health of Bro . Wingfield W . M . was then given , and in returning thanks , he said he was always willing to do everything in his power for the crood of Freemasonry in general , and the Royal Arthur Lodge

in particular . For the kindness with which the toast had been received he tendered his hearty thanks , and he trusted that they might all be spared to meet next year iu the true spirit of hospitality which should ever characterise Freemasonry . The meeting , which had been one of unalloyed pleasnre , then terminated .

On the same evening on which tho Masonio banquet was hold , a banquet was given by the Council of the National Rifle Association , in another part of the Pavilion , to tho Indian and Colonial Rifle Teams . Sir Henry Wilmot , President of the Association , occupied , the chair , and there were present : Lieutenant-Colonel Rivett Carnec , CLE .,

commanding the Indian team ; Colonel Tyrwhitt , commanding the Canadian team ; Colonel Sleep , commanding the Australian team ; Colonel Tandiff , commanding the Gnernsey team ; Major Robin ,
