We very much regret that the name of Bro . J . Lewis Thomas , F . S . A ., P . A . G . D . C , was omitted from the list of those who attended Grand Lodge on the 4 th instant . V / e have also to state that the Report of the
Board of General Purposes was adopted on the motion of Bro . Loveland Loveland , President , seconded bv Bro . W . A . Scurrah , in his capacity of Vice-President , and not in the absence of Bro . Dr . Ernest Pocock , D . G . D . C , Vice-President , who is not a member of the Board at the present time .
• * * We beg to express our acknowledgments to sundry brethren , and among them to Bro . W . A . Scurrah , who have kindly furnished the names of M . Ps . who are also members of our Order . We note with pleasure that the Studholme Lodge , No . 1591 , has the honour of including among its members as many as nine brethren who are members of the newly-elected House
Masonic Notes.
of Commons , but of these all but Bros . Viscount Milton and E . F . G . Hatch have already been included in the lists which have appeared in our columns . * * * According to the American Tyler , the returns for 1 S 94 show that in North America there are 57 Grand Lodges , with a total membership of 747 , 492 . Of these
713 , 721 belong to jurisdictions in the United States , the remainder holding under the Grand Lodges oi Canada , Manitoba , British Columbia , Nuw Brunswick , Nova Scotia , Prince Edward Island , and Quebec . Of Royal Arch Masons there are 192 , 320 , of whom 187 , 311 belong to the United States . The Knights Templar , in which those in British North America are not included , muster 07 , 765 .
» * It is to be regretted that the Toronto Freemason should have found a place in its columns for the " Open Letter " addressed to Bro . W . R . White , Q . C , M . W , Grand Master of Canada ( Province of Ontario ) by Bro . Robert Cuthbert , P . G . S . B . The latter ' s grievance appears to be that he was interrupted in his speech
when proposing a certain motion at the recent annual communication of the Grand Lodge of Canada . On the strength of this grievance Bro . Cuthbert has addressed to Grand Master White this "Open Letter , " which , for its objectionable character , has rarely , if ever , been equalled by any similar communication within our experience .
* * * Bro . Cuthbert , having in the first paragraph of his letter been guilty of what is , comparatively speaking , a slight impertinence towards Grand Master White , goes on to ascribe "the unseemly and discourteous treatment' he had received when attempting to
address Grand Lodge , to the "undisguised hostility " of that distinguished brother . Our Toronto contemporary refers to " the lack of courtesy shown to speakers , " but considers it a mistake to attach blame " to the Grand Officers and those surrounding them , " and it adds " while it is true that M . W
Bro . White did not use his gavel as frequently and firmly as some of his predecessors , yet we believe the rank and file of Grand Lodge are solely to blame for not observing the regulations of the Craft when in Grand Lodge assembled . " Here then it is admitted
that Bro . White might have beer , firmer and more insistent in his efforts to maintain order and decorum in Grand Lodge . But lack of firmness on the part of a presiding officer is very far removed from " undisguised hostility " towards a particular speaker . * * *
In subsequent paragraphs the writer tells Bro . White that it was his " manifest duty " to obtain for him " the ordinary amenities on the occasion that should characteiUc gentlemen , " and that he would neither suffer him nor Grand Lodge under his inspiration to insult him with impunity . " Such remarks as these , resting
as they must necessarily do on the very unsubstantial basis of an imaginary wrong , ought never to have been addressed by one Mason to another , much less to one who occupies so exalted a position as that of head ot one of the most reputable Grand Lodges in the
world . We repeat that it has rarely , if ever , been our lot , in a not inextensive course of reading of Masonic literature of all kinds , to meet with such a letter as this , and we are confident it will be a long time ere we shall find its equal .
? * # Our worthy contemporary , the Masonic Chronicle , of Columbus , Ohio , is full of enthusiasm over the Grand Encampment of Knights Templar which is to be held at Boston , Massachusetts , and records , among other items of news , that the United States North Atlantic Squadron will appear in Boston Harbou
during the meeting of the Templar Conclave , Secretary Herbert having already signified his willingness to allow it to remain there some days . It also mentions a report to the effect that the California Commanderies '' will distribute 10 tons of fruit and 10 , 000 bottles of choice California wines at the various stopping places on the pilgrimage to the triennial . " We trust the knightly pilgrims will reach their destination in safety .
* We have much pleasure in announcing that the Second Edition of Bro . John Lane ' s " Masonic Records" has at length been published , and that a review of this important work will appear next week .
There are two important Provincial Meetings to be held in the course of next week namely , that of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Cornwall at Saltash , on Monday , and that of the Provincial Grand Lodge of West Lancashire , on Friday , the 20 th instant .
