The M . W . G . M . M . M . installed Bro . Sicklemore , at Ramsgate , in the presence of a considerable number of visitors , including several Grand Officers . Though , strictl y speaking , not occurring exactly within the time up to which the report of the Board would ordinaril y refer , yet so exceptionally
important must be considered the events in connection with the Moveable Grand Lodge , held at Manchester on the . 2 nd of October last , that the Board feels justified in introducing a notice of them here , which , however , need be but brief , inasmuch as they are full y recorded in the Grand Lodge Minutes read to-day , and will be duly published .
The Board has every confidence that the proceedings of that auspicons occasion will be asource o' ' unmixed gratification , as bringing to a happy issue negociations which have for so long a time occupied the attention of the Executive , as well as of Grand Lodge .
While , however , congratulating the Order on the acquisition of influence and numerical strength thus obtained with the benefits of union so long earnestl y sought , the Board has still to regret that the Supreme Grand Chapter of Scotland has not yet seen fit to enter on terms of amity with
this Grand Lodge , b y according to its members even the modified recognition of an acknowledgment of the validity of their certificates , and their reception as legally-advanced Mark Master Masons when offering themselves for admission as visitors to Scotch Lodges .
Considerable progress has been made with the very arduous task of revision of the Ritualsthat of the ceremony of advancement may be considered as completed—save only the explanatory Lecture on the Tracing Board , the delay in whjch is attributable to causes which cannot be
exp lained in a public Report . 'The new edition of the Book of Constitutions is ready , in which are contained the " Regulations for the Government of the Degree of Royal Ark Mariner . " Warrants are read y for
issue , and also certificates , and , therefore , there need be no further delay in working this Degree b y those Mark brethren to whom it may appear desirable , and who may petition for a warrant in the terms prescribed by the regulations .
The Board is pleased to be able to congratulate Grand Lodge on the continued addition to the " Benevolent Fund . " The festival held in July last was most successful , especiall y in a pecuniary point of view , the largest amount yet
produced having been realised , mainl y due to the liberality of the Earl of Bective , who generousl y sent a donation of fifty guineas . His lordshi p ' s inability , from indisposition , to preside , as he had intended , having been a source of regret to all present .
The balance at the banker to the credit of this fund amounts , tei die . 30 th September , to £ 271 1 ; s . 51 L , which , witli amount since received , would allow of an investment of £ . 300 , and the Board recommends the purchase of idjoo in Canadian Government Securities .
The Board recommends that the Rev . G . R . Portal , Rt . Hon . the Earl of Percy , M . P ., and Rt . Hon . the Earl of Limerick , be appointed Trustees of Grand Lodge . It is with sincere regret that the Board
communicates , for the information of Grand Lodge , that it lias been found necessary to put in operation the provision of the Tripartite Treaty , and to suspend two members of Grand Lodge . In each case the brethren have made their submission , and the suspension has therefore been withdrawn .
