ROYAL MASONIC INSTITUTION FOR BOYS . ELECTION OF SECRETARY . 21 , Delahay Street , Westminster , S . W ., February , iSt ) 0 . DEAR SIR AND BROTHER , I have the honour to offer myself as a Candidate for the office of Secretary of the above Institution on the retirement of Bro . Binckes , and I hereby beg to solicit your vote and support . I have recently retired from the Army Service Corps , after upwards of 20 years' service at home and abroad , and I am now 42 years of age . During the period of my service I have held several acting Colonial appointments of considerable trust and emolument , including that of Auditor-General of the West Africa Settlements . I served throughout the Ashantee War , 1 S 73—74 , under Bro . Sir Garnet ( now Lord ) Wolseley . In 1881 , 1 was on the Special Staff of Bro . Sir Samuel Rowe , K . C . M . G ., Governor of the Gold Coast Colony . I was afterwards employed for five years as Head of the Commissariat Department and Acting District Paymaster in the West African Command . The duties performed by the Army Service Corps ( late Commissariat and Transport Staff ) in connection with Barracks and Military Hospitals , are in many respects analogous to those performed by the Secretary in connection with the School ; amongst others , the charge of buildings and the provision ( by contract , purchase , or otherwise ) , and the accounting for all Food , Fuel , Light , Bedding , Furniture , Medical Comforts , and Hospital Clothing . I , therefore , venture to think that the experience of office detail and the knowledge of accounts which I have acquired , might be of considerable advantage to this Institution ; especially as I am led to understand that some improvement in the system of accounts is desirable . I attach a statement of my Masonic records , and beg to add that I am a Life-Governor of the Institution . I am , Dear Sir and Brother , Yours faithfully and fraternally , F .
