SUSPENSION OF LODGES . To the Editor of thc " Freemason . " Dear Sir and Brother , Just one word more upon this subject . In your last issue you say that I do not comprehend the difference between the right and wrong " ruling" of the Board of General Purposes . Allow me to repeat that I have made no mistake . All my statements have been correct , and the " ruling " I mentioned was in writing to the Master of the

suspended lodge . But at last we agree . You say : "The actual ruling ol the Board is as we anticipated . " I say it is , but it was not until the last meeting of the Board . It is gratifying to know that the ventilation of this matter in your columns has brought about such verv satisfactory results , and so relieved

the Craft of the effects of what mas a -very injurious " ruling . " Of course the brethren o £ the suspended lodg c belonging to other lodges have had to suffer for two months through the error , but luckily they have been the only sufferers , and are now relieved . —Yours fraternally , A LOVER OF JUSTICb .
