derived from an official source , and is , I fear , greatly calculated to mislead . I am , dear Sir and Brother , yours faithfully and fraternally , F . R . W . HEDGES , Secretary . To the Editor ofthe " Freemason . " Dear Sir and Brother , —
Will you give me space for a few lines in your journal ? I am a "Steward" for the Festival for 1 SS 1 , for the Girls' School , and am met with this difficulty . Some " wiseacre " or other lias put about a story , which seems to be extensively circulated , that " no efforts are needed to
bring- up large returns , as they are already promised , & c . This statement is , I need not point out to you , as you have already animadverted upon it in your columns , a complete fiction and a very hurtful blunder . With a good many others , I am inclined to hope , Masonically speaking , that it has arisen from inadvertent and
haphazard " gossip , " which we know often abounds in respect to Masonic " sayings and doings . " IThe "Jack Brag" of Theodcre Hook ' s inimitable story is no unknown personality in Masonic circles . Some brethren think they trace in this " myth " a purpose ,
and that purpose antagonistic to , and depreciatory of , the Girls' School . For my part , as I said before , I profess to accept the more charitable interpretation , that it was spoken in " chaff " and has been circulated as a childish " canard . "
But thc assertion has done , and is doing , great harm , to the Girls' School Festival . It has damped thc energies of some , it has kept back the contributions of more ; it has prevented many brethren offering their names as Stewards , and has rendered the labours of the Stewards themselves doubly difficult .
Under these circumstances I , for one , think it well to call the attention of your many readers to the facts of the case , and the untrustworthy statement alluded to , and venture to ask them , as a "Steward , " to rally round the authorities of the Girls' School , and enable them to make a " good return" on the interesting occasion of the Anniversary in
May , presided over by a distinguished Prov . Grand Master , one of our leading statesmen . There is yet plenty of time to undo the serious evil , caused by hasty words or a mischievous statement , and it only requires a " long pull , a strong pull , ' and a pull
altogether , " to render the Girls' School Anniversary of _ iSSi a legitimate triumph and a well merited success , alike for the welfare of its 225 inmates , as for the maintenance of one of the most remarkable Institutions our country can boast of . Yours fraternally , A STEWARD .
THE GRAND ORIENT OF TUNIS . To the Editor of the "Freemason . " Dear Sir and Brother , — Can you tell me anything about this so-called Grand Body , what it is , and what are its claims to Masonic jurisdiction ? I have seen some publications professing to
emanate from it . Is it a legal body ? Yours fraternally , MEDITERRANEAN PASS . [ We know nothing officially about it , except that it seems somehow or other to be mixed up with some recent controversies . From what wc have heard wc doubt its legal formation . Perhaps Bro . Broadley can enlighten us . —En . F . M . ]
RED CROSS OF CONSTANTINE . To thc Editor of the " Freemason . " Dear Sir and Brother , — 1 am much pleased with the energy expressed in Bro . Dr . Woodman ' s letter in the Freemason of the nth December last , and feel some surprise that it has taken so
long to arouse it . On the 26 th August , 1 S 76 , I wrote to the worthy brother on the subject , and again in 1 S 7 S , these last being returned through the post , and were sent by mc to Bro . Kenning , who handed them to Bro . Lewis , an officer of Grand Conclave , and on the 27 th December , 1879 , a letter appeared in the Freemason , to none of which any
reply was given . In conclusion , I positively state that since our constitution in January , 1 S 75 , no papers , letters , or documents have ever been received in Auckland from any Grand Officer of this Degree until the last mail , notwithstanding all my previous attempts to get information . I do not know the Burdett Coults Conclave at Dunedin ,
about 1000 miles distance , but 1 would like to ascertai n from the Grand Recorder the position of the Alpha Crucis Conclave , No . 86 , Beta Crucis , No . 109 , Gamma Crucis , No . 110 , and Wellington , No . 116 , all of them constituted about the same time as ourselves , under the authority of the then Chief Intendant General for New Zealand , none of them , I believe , having received their charter or a certificate for any of their members . HENRY G . WADE , Recorder Delta Crucis Conclave , No . ia . fi .
A QUESTION . To Ihe Editor of the " Freemason . '' Dear Sir and Brother , — In your issue of April 23 rd , under the head of " Masonic Tidings , " a little notice is inserted stating that
Original Correspondence.
two brethren of Lodge S 13 advise all brethren who may have an opportunity to visit Amitie Lodge at Boulogne . I am both desirous and willing to visit said lodge when I have the opportunity ; but are not brethren holding allegiance to the M . W . Grand Lodge of England
interdicted l from visiting in France ? or , are there two Grand Bodies in France , one of which only is not recognised by this Grand Lodge ? Will you kindly enlighten me upon this point in your next issue ? And oblige , yours fraternally , A PERPLEXED SUBSCRIBER .
YOUNG INSTRUCTORS . To the Editor of the "Freemason . " Dear Sir and Brother , — I have been anxiously waiting for the opinion of " true experts , " in response to our worthy P . M . ' s letter of the nth inst ., but must confess I am not disappointed in not
seeing one , for I believe P . M . ' s as a rule are too generous and well disposed towards the younger members of Freemasonry to attempt to check the interest and fervency which youngmembers take in its proceedings ; indeed , I have always found that P . M . ' s encourage and assist the younger members to rise to distinction in knowledge , instead of
attempting to crush it as " a serious evil , " for when we find young members persevering and appreciating thc sublimity of its ritual , wc may look forward to the time when every W . M . will do justice to the proud position in which hc is placed , and inability to perform the duties will be a thing of the past .
Again , it is not always possible for every lodge to have a P . M . as Preceptor , many are not sufficiently acquainted , and others cannot make it convenient to fulfil the duties of that important position ; and as every lodge chooses its own Preceptor we need not fear that Masonry will suffer by the " arrogance" and impetuosity of youth , but on the
contrary , by selecting the best acquainted and patient amongst its number , whether an officer or not , lodges of instruction will flourish , and when those members shall be no longer able to discharge that duty , may we find many young members willing and capable to hold that responsible position . Your fraternally , ' W . A . S .
THE OLDEST FREEMASON . To the Editor ofthe "Freemason . " Dear Sir and Brother , — In getting at the fact as to who is the " Oldest Freemason " the following must be taken into consideration , ist , The date of initiation , and then , has the brother referred
to been a subscriber without intermission ever since his initiation , for we know that so soon as a brother ceases to pay his dues lie ceases to be recognised in Grand Lodge and in his own lodge , i . e ., he loses all his previous Masonic rank . Now in the case of R . W . Bro . Wm . Eliot , P . P . G . M . of Dorset , P . M . All Souls , No . 170 , P . G . Supt . of Royal
Arch Masons of Dorset , and P . Z . All Souls' Chapter , ever ~> since February , ISIG , he has been , and still is , a subscg " - to his mother lodge , which any brother can verify by w .

As a regular reader o j the Freemason I shall be pleased to see a list of all li ^ f v * mff brethren who are still subscribers to some lodge , and . w ^ o were initiated between iSio and 1 S 31 .
