AT the Annual Meeting of this Provincial Grand Lodge , held on Tuesday , 20 th December , at the Masonic Hall , Gower Street , Derby , there was a large and influential gathering , every Lodge in the Province being represented . It had been hoped that the Provincial Grand
Master , Bro . the Marquis of Hartington , M . P ., would have made it convenient to attend on this occasion , but at the eleventh hour the noble lord found himself unable , by reason of important business which called him to London ,
to be present . In his absence the chair was occupied by the genial and popular Deputy Grand Master , Brother Haughton Charles Okeover , who was supported hy a large number of distinguished Provincial Grand Officers , Past
and Present . The chair of the D . P . G . M . was rilled by Bro . W . H . Marsden P . P . S . G . W . The annual reports presented from the various Lodges indicated a steady growth of Masonic strength , it being particularly noticeable that
the Charities of the Order were receiving a very hearty and liberal recognition . On the latter point , it wag mentioned by Bro . G . T . Wright , Chairman of the Charity Committee , that during the past year the
Province had subscribed £ 557 5 s 6 d towards the three great Masonic Charitable Institutions , and that during the past three years no less than £ 2 , 4 . 00 had been sent up from Derbyshire . An interesting feature of the
day ' s proceedings was the presentation of a testimonial to Bro . William Naylor , who has for a great many years most zealously ; vnd efficiently discharged the duties of Provincial Grand Secretary . It was repotted by Bro . Percy Wallis ,
who had acted as Honorary Secretary to the Presentation Fund , that the proposal to recognise Bro . Naylor ' s services had been most liberally responded to from all parts of the Proviuce , and that after purchasing for him Full and
Undress Grand Lodge clothing , and also clothiug for Grand Royal Arch Chapter ( in both of which Bro . Naylor has been made the recipient of honours ) , the Committee were able to hand over a cheque of the value of £ 175 for
presentation . The Deputy Provincial Grand Master , in investing Bro . Naylor with the handsome new clothing , and presenting him with the cheque referred to , bore eloquent testimony to the great services he had rendered to the
Province of Derbyshire , and wished him an abundant measure of health to continue his honourable Masonic career . Bro . Naylor , in returning thanks , referred to the enormous strides made by Derbyshire Freemasonry during the 17 years he had been connected with the Province .
