Freemasonry In Nova Scotia.

FREEMASONRY IN NOVA SCOTIA .

ST . ANDREWS LOIIKK , NO . I . —The old Masonic Lodge Room in Novia Scotia never held a brilliant assemblage than was gathered together on the occassion of the recent annual meeting . For the first time in the annals of the craft , its old

walls resounded with the happy laughter , and its mystic landmarks grew bright with rainbow tints , of fair women , the mothers , wives , sisters and daughters of masons , who had come together by invitation from St . Andrew ' s Lodge , to

receive their first a lessons in masonry , and to listen to an exposition of its mysteries , from men alike eminent and eloquent in the order . The lodge was most tastefully and appropriately decorated for the

occasion . Festoons of bunting , encircled the room , and mottoes peeped from evergreen borders on all sides . The Craftsmen Mere clad in their richest attire , and all the regalia , working tools , and paraphernalia of the order , were

brought from their dun recesses to do honour to the occasion . The gentlemen who had kindly consented to speak Mere Bros , the Hon . H . W Smith , Attorney-General ; Hon . W . Garvie ,

Commissioner of Public Works , and Hiram Blanchard , Q . C . ; whose several speeches were models of genuine eloquence , and were listened with well merited attention throughout .
