which will includ- ; the appointment and investiture' of the Prov . Grand Officers for the ensuing year , will be of the usual character . At 6 . 30 p . m . the customary banquet will be held , and those desirous of attending must apply to the Assistant Prov . G . Secretary , Bro .

less than 10 brethren from any station on their line to Woking on the day in question at a single fare and a quarter for the double journey , three clear days' notice of their intention being given by those desirous of availing themselves of the offer to the Superintendent of the Line , Mr .

Institution at Croydon . There was a goodly muster of visitors , prominent among them being members of the Committee , with the Secretary and Mrs . Terry , every one taking the utmost delight in ministering to the comfort and pleasure of the aged residents . We hope to publish a full report of the proceedings next week .
* * * We regret , however , to hear that the respected Secretary is far from being in his usual health . We ought not , perhaps , to be altogether surprised that Bro . Terry should occasionally find himself indisposed .
We have been so accustomed to read of him working almost as resolutely and indefatigably as when he was new to the duties of his office , that we seem to look upon it as well nigh impossible that he should be ever out of sorts , and stand in need of his
accustomed summer holidays . We forget that for the last 35 years or thereabouts he has been labouring zealously for the Institution , firstly as Collector , and for the last 27 years as Secretary , and that the wear and tear of so protracted a term of arduous service must , in the nature of things , have been very great .
Our readers will be pleased to hear that he is about leaving for his holiday , and we most sincerely hope that , when he resumes his duties on behalf of the Institution he has served so long and faithfully and loves so well it will be with a renewed health and energy that will suffice to carry him successfully through a further term of years .

Grand Chapter is fixed for Saturday , the 29 th instant , and will take place at the Mitre Hotel , Hampton Court .
