Marshall ; Terry , asH . P . ; Hubbard , Marsh , Turner , MacDougal , and other zealous members of the Order . The rites observed

Sir Knt . Walters was then presented as the M . P . S . nominate , ancl a senate of Sovereigns having been formed , consisting of six members , that distinguished knight Avas duly enthroned in the imperial seat of Constantineand on the re-admission of the knihts was

to be able to publish in our next issue . On the motion of the M . P . S . ifc was carried unanimously ; thafc the M . 111 . G . Sovereign Lord Kenlis ; the M . E . Grand V . E ., F . M .

Order . Sir Knt . Hubbard , in responding to the toast of the G . V .

, and devote a considerable portion of their time to the management of its affairs . To me , indeed , it seems almost incredible that within the comparatively brief space of time—less than two years—when Past Sovereigns Little , Buss , and myself met , and within the circumscribed area of my own residence , and with somewhat maimed rites , installed a few Sir Knt . Companionsand tlie present momentwhen we have been

, , called upon to assist officially at the dedication and inauguration of a third conclave , and to sit at its banquet-table as invited guests . We feel proud , and we hope not unpardonably so , that within the same brief period we should find our names associated iu the government of the Order with those of noblemen and gentlemen of rank and position in the social scale , and that we have rallying around our standard and our altar

able and distinguished Masons such as we have the pleasure of meeting bore to-day . Arguing from the past , we feel justified in the belief that at no greatly distant clay we shall see the banner of the Red Cross planted throughout the length and breadth of the land , and the broad principles of Craft Masonrynofc superseded , bufc supplemented—by the symbol and principles of Christianity ; and even if some of us , from natural causes , should not be living witnesses of this , we feel thafc we shall" Departing , leave behind us

Footprints on the sands of time . " In tho name , and on behalf of tho Grand Council , I beg to offer yon our grateful acknowledgments for tho cordial manner in which this toast has been received .

y kindness with which he bad been received , and expressed a fervent hope that the " Rose and Lily" might long continue to bloom . Sir Knt .
