Masonic Offering To Dr. Oliver.*
MASONIC OFFERING TO DR . OLIVER . *
AT a meeting of the Committee , held in the Freemasons' Hall , Lincoln , on Thursday , January 19 , 1843 , PRESENT : Brothers—Henry Goddard ( in the chair ) , — Harvey , ( Treasurer ) , E . A . Bromhead , J . Nicholson Drury , Taylor Middleton , Webber , Greathead , ( Secretary ) , and others , it was
RESOLVED UNANIMOUSLY , — " That Brothers W . A . Nicholson , Goodacre , and Jepson , be a Sub-Committee , for the purpose of receiving subscriptions among the Brethren in Lincoln , and the neighbourhood thereof . " That Brother W . H . Adams , ( Mayor of Boston ) , and the W . M . of the Lodge of Harmony , he requested to act as a Sub-Committee in their own
neighbourhood . " That Brother Malim be requested to act at Grantham , and Brother Smedley at Sleaford . " That Brother R . T . Crucefix , M . D ., P . G . Deacon , and Brother J . Lee Stevens , P . G . Steward , be requested to communicate with the various Lodges , Chapters , and Encampments , beyond the province of Lincoln , inviting them to form Committees , to obtain subscriptions , and to communicate the result with the least possible delay . " ( Signed ) " HENRY GODDARD , Chairman . "
We have received a considerable number of letters on the subject of the " Oliver Offering "—creditable to the writers , and breathing sentiments of gratitude and esteem for the venerated Brother to whom the presentation is about to be made . In our advertising columns will be found an additional list of Subscribers ; and we have to apologise to some friends whose names came too late to be included in the Report .
Time , as yet , does not permit returns from India and other distant parts , where the " Masonic Light" which Dr . Oliver has imparted , burns as brightly as here ; so that it is possible the day of presentation may be delayed somewhat longer than could be wished ; but , come when it will , it will be a day of joy and rejoicing .
