affording assistance to this Lodge , as well as toothers , whenever they needecj it , and after the valuable aid he had rendered to the Lodge of Affability for several years past , it was only a fair tribute to pay him . for his disinterested kindness by giving him that position which would entitle him to rank amongst them ab a member .
