TASMANIA . \ From a Correspondent ^ In the month of May , 1853 , the , Lodge of Hope , No . 901 , was formed at Launceston , Tasmania , under dispensation from the Provincial Grand Lodge of New South Wales . The first Master was Bro . T . G . S . Swan , Assistant Commissary-General , a Mason of some thirty-five years' standing , and who had taken thirty-three Degress in Continental Masonry . Bro . the Bev . R . K . Ewing ,
Presbyterian minister , succeeded him in the chair for two successive years . Bro . the Bev . H . P . Kane , M . A ., head master of grammar-school , next occupied the chair , and subsequently again Bro . Ewing . So harmoniously and successfully did the Lodge work , that the need of an additional Lodge was soon felt , and in the month of December , 1855 , the Lodge of Faith , No . 992 , was formed under dispensation from Sydney . Bro . Joseph Cohen , alderman , merchant , is the present and the first W . M . This Lodge soon also prospered largely , and in the month of
November , 1856 , a third Lodge , Charity , No . 989 , was formed , also under dispensation from the Provincial Grand Lodge , New South Wales . The first W . M . was Bro . W . H . Palmer , accountant , bank of Australasia ; the present W . M . is Bro . C . J . Weedon , J . P ., merchant . Those three Lodges comprise among them a large number ; among whom the great majority are men of wealth , influence , and high standing in society . Previous to the existence of the above , the Union Lodge , Hobart Town , No . 781 , was , for several years , the only one in the colony
on the registry of England . The Lodges at Launceston have , at a very great expense , provided themselves with accommodations for meeting unsurpassed , for elegance and comfort , in any of the colonies . The Lodge-room is about forty feet square ; the paraphernalia and working tools prepared with great taste . The regular Lodge duties are accompanied by music ; Bro . John Adams , a pupil of Dr . Ehry , is organist . Attached to the Lodge-room is an ante , or preparingroom , a refreshment , and a reading-room , furnished with every comfort .
