Ladies' Night Of The Clissold Lodge, No. 2551.
Ladies' Night of the Clissold Lodge , No . 2551 .
THE second annual ladies reunion of the above Lodge held recently at the Great Eastern Hotel , Liverpool Street , met with more than the usual success attending these auspicious occasions . To the untiring energy of the secretary , Bro . J . G . Harrison , and his committee , must be
accredited so Irappy a result . The Clissold Lodge , as may be guessed , derives its name from the Clissold Park where the lodge originally met , and the members chiefly hail from that estimable Loudon suburb .
KliO . NATHAN , W . M . The reception of the ladies and visitors took place in good time for the subsequent banquet , during which the toast of the Worshipful Master was given by Bro . Elliott , P . A . G . D . C . —well known of Islington—who said that had he
not previously very carefully perused the toast list he should have risen with all confidence in the world to say that he had the pleasure of proposing the toast of the evening , but he was not quite prepared to say so after the evidence of the toast list , for he found a little later on that another
brotherwould have the privilege of proposing a still greater toast that of ' The Ladies . " Consequently to the chivalrous Freemason even the Worshipful Master took second place on such an occasion . At the same time there could never be a toast more sure of a fitting reception than the one he
had to propose , because their Worshipful Master that evening was the right man in a right place no less than his predecessor Bro . Vincent Smith , and they would join with unanimous voice in supporting the toast of the Worshipful Master of the Clissold Lodge .
The W . M ., Bro . Nathan , said he was very pleased to hear the remarks of Bro . Elliott . Indeed he felt quite a spoilt child while they were being uttered . He could assure them it was most gratifying to him to be there . When he
saw such a capital assembly he felt that to Bro . Harrison and the other brethren of the committee a meed of praise was due for the manner in which they had contributed to make the meeting so successful , and he would in conclusion thank all present on his wife's and his own behalf for the toast . A capital programme of music interspersed the toasts , the
second of which was " The Ladies . " This was proposed by Bro . Schaverein , who said that although he knew it was usual for the youngest man present to propose the toast of the ladies he wished some married brother might have had the honour . He was sure such a one would have spoken of
what he understood , which was niure than he should be doing . Bro . G . T . Wood responded . The brother before him deprecated his youth . Would he be in order in deploring his length of years . But the ladies never grew old lo the
tine Masonic eye . He had been thinking of the ricks allotted to man , but there was none greater than to represent the ladies in one frail person . He had been trying to seek inspiration from a fair companion , but she had said " We do not know what you mean by ' Master , ' we own none . "
BRO . G . . 1 . HARRISON , J . W . The vocalists were Bros . Victor Halliday , who conducted , Madam Zabban , Miss Beatie Nathan , Bros . J . J . Berry , Alec Meade , and G . T . Wood . The stewards were Bros . Badman , Lamigeon , V . Smith , R . Hardstone , J . G . Gough , C
Harrison , Kitchener and L . Schaverein , while the Director of Ceremonies and Hon . Secretary for the ladies festival was Bro . G . J . Harrison , the J . W . of the lodge . A grand ball formed the last and longest item on the programme , and if the ladies do not come often to this and other lodges they can at least be certain that no pains are spared to render their visits happy and attractive .
