Quarterly Communication.
After the minutes of the March Communication , and those of the Especial Grand Lodge in April , had been read and confirmed , The Most AVorshipful Grand Master addressed the Brethren for a considerable time on his proposition for the relief of the Female School , and concluded a most luminous exposition of his views , by proposing that the sum of £ 1500 should be advanced from the Grand Lodge Funds , to be repaid from the surplus proceeds of subscriptions and donations
that may be annually shown to be in the hands of the treasurer of that charity . The proposition was seconded by Brother Coe , and was about to be put , when an amendment by Brother Lythgoe , "that some guarantee should be given for the repayment , " was suggested , which , after a very critical and lengthy discussion , was withdrawn , and the proposition of the Grand Master was carried by acclamation . * The several minutes of the Lod of Benevolence for AprilMay
ge , , and June were then read and approved . After which Dr . Crucefix moved that the sum of £ 50 be voted to Brother AA m . Hughes , whose case was fully detailed at the June Lodge of Benevolence . The vote was carried unanimously . The reports from the Boards of General Purposes and Finance were then read and approved .
Lord John S . Churchill and Richard Percival , Jim ., Esq ., were then , at the suggestion of the Grand Master , unanimously elected Trustees , vice AV . AV . Prescott , Esq ., and Sir John Soane , deceased . Dr . Crucefix then rose relative to his notices of motion , and stated his gratification that His Royal Highness had , by his gracious message and present observations , rendered that relating to the Girls' School unnecessary ; and in regard to the second , in reference to the Constitutions , he
had the pleasure to announce to the Grand Lodge , that at a conference , to which the Grand Master had condescended to admit him , such portions as admitted of immediate consideration would be declared to them b y the Grand Master himself , to whom he begged most respectfully to entrust his motion . His Royal Highness then entered very minutely into the subject , and drew the attention of the Brethren to the several emendations which
circumstances had rendered needful , and concluded by stating that he should appoint a Committee forthwith , so as to be enabled to present a report at the next Grand Lodge , if not earlier . The Boards of General Purposes and Finance were then proceeded with , and the following were declared .
