( Continued from page 309 . ) It is with mingled regret and gratification that we give publicity to the following record in the minute book of the Love and Honour Lodge , as in all probability it would not have seen the

light were it not for this effort of our own . A lodge of emergency was held 28 th April , 1820 , to initiate two gentlemen , whose stay was very uncertain , being seafaring men . The visitors were Bros . Corfield , Hyslop , aud Wynterbottom . C .

Suserey being a Spaniard , and unacquainted with the English language , Bros . Hyslop and Wynterbottom kindly acted as interpreters . These three had just arrived from Carthagena , South America , where Bro . Hyslop was thrown into prison at the

instance of Morula , the Spanish General , for refusing to declare the names of the Masons in the province . On his persisting in his refusal , he was , amidst increased sufferings and privations , thrice bound and led out for execution , but was each time

saved by the interposition of Colonel Torey , who had secretly visited him in prison , encouraged him to persevere in his fidelity , aud on one or two occasions had watched over him whilst he slept .

Morilla at length left Carthagena , and Hyslop was set at liberty . A meeting was held as early as possible after his release , and it was not until then that Hyslop knew that Torey was a brother . They embraced each other most ardently , the

former telling the Colonel he had thrice saved his life , and , amidst much joy and gratitude , the remaining brethren hailed Hyslop as the man who had , in all probability , by his fidelity and courage , saved the lives of many who had become members

of the Craft . Bro . John Ellis , P . D . P . G . M ., & c , W . M ., retired from the chair of the lodge , 2 nd January , 1821 , and in the following address set forth the principles of the Craft to the members so forcibly that we feel tempted to transcribe it ver-
