Election Of Grand Treasurer.
Election of Grand Treasurer .
THE nomination of candidates for the office of Grand Treasurer , 1905-6 , took place at the September communication of Grand Loclge . There were three candidates , and in describing their qualifications we cannot do better than quote the statements made by their respective nominators .
W . Bro . William Goodacre ( Past Grand Sword Bearer , Prov . Grand Secretary , West Lancashire ) said : I have the privilege of placing before this Grand Lodge the name of a brother from the Province of West Lancashire . In accordance with the general understanding of late years it appears to have been the custom to nominate a brother from a London lodge one year , and another year one belonging to a
into . L . s . wix . si . oK .
lodge outside the home circuit . Bro . Attenborough , the present Grand Treasurer , would have made the proposition which I have been asked to take up , but he is out of town , and I received a telegram from him this morning asking me to take up tlie nomination of Bro . Winsloe on his behalf . Bro . Louis Slade Winsloe ' s age is 45 . He resides at 7 ,
Gambier Terrace , Liverpool , and is a Chemical Manufacturer and Merchant . He was initiated in the Saint George ' s Lodge of Harmony , No . 32 , in 1885 .

In 1902 , Bro . Winsloe was appointed by Lord Lathom , Prov . S . G . Warden in the Craft , and Prov . Grand Principal H .
in the Royal Arch . Bro . Winsloe has an excellent benevolent record . In his own Province of West Lancashire he is Patron and Trustee of ( he West Lancashire Educational Institution which has 240 children on its foundation ; he is Vice-Patron of the West Lancashire Hamer Benevolent Institution , which has 26 old men on the foundation ; and he

Winsloe is also a Life-Governor of the Royal Masonic Benevolent Institution ; Vice-Patron of the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls and also of the Roval Masonic Institution for Boys . Outside of the Craft ( if I may be allowed for a moment to touch
on that ) he is a liberal supporter of the Hospitals and other local Charities , a Governor of the Bluecoat Hospital , and Treasurer of the Infirmary for Children . I know of no brother in the Provinces who would better adorn the position of Grand Treasurer , nor who more richly deserves the support of the brethren , therefore I have much pleasure
