MR E DITOR . —In answer to the complaint of your correspondent concerning the deficiency of instruction in the Royal Arch Degree , I have reason to believe that it arises from a want of the patronage of the Fraternity for Chapters of promulgation . It is not to be expected that those who are qualified to give instruction in this Degree will put themselves to the trouble of attending , when the Companions show indifference either by irregular or late attendance . For the information of your corfeel inclined to avail themselves of the
respondent , and others who may opportunity , I have to announce that the third Wednesdays m February , April , June , August , October , and December , are appointed by the Mount Sion Chapter , No . 169 , for the purpose of promulgation , lhe Companions meet at the George and Vulture Tavern , Cornhill on the third Wednesday in every alternate month , as above stated , at seven PMprecisel when Companion of the Order duly vouched for ,
. . y , any and properly clothed will be admitted . „ -pp ^ y 1 1 GEORGE W . TURNER , P . P . & A Mount Sion Chapter , No . 169 . [ We have much p leasure in giving publicity to Companion Turners communication . —ED . ]
