rM \ UR worthy and much esteemed Brother , WILMAM HANNAM , Esq . ^ - ^ wliose portrait embellishes tile present Number of our Magazine , holds the very respectable situation of PROVOST MARTIAL OF HIS MAJESTY ' GUARDS , to which his merit , as an officer , has raised him , and the duties of which he discharges with the greatest humanity , and credit to himself . It is not our intention to trouble our readers with a tedious
biography . As a Mason , Mr . Haunam ' s unwearied zeal and attention are too well known to the Fraternity , to need the tribute of our praise . In the distinguished post of Acting Grand Master of the Sublime Degree of the Religious and Military Order of Kni ghts Templars , he has always evinced his ability to perform , and instruct his companions inthe curious and exalted exercises of their Masonic duty ;
, and , whenever the ditties of the Craft have required his aid , he has ever been foremost to assist , with 'his experience and his labour , in handling the Masonic tools . To sum up the whole , in as short and concise an eulogium ( and our Masonic Readers well know that conciseness is one of the first requisites of our Order ) as possible , we will venture to pronounce Mr . Hasinam , for his knowledge , zeal , and
assiduity , to be one of the brightest ornaments of Masonry . It now only remains for us to express our sincere wishes , that he may long continue amongst us , to improve us by his instruction , and delight us by his condescension ancl good humour ; and that those Brethren , whose infancy precludes them from being brought out of darkness into light , may be long before they are deprived of so able a Teacher .
