Address To Our Readers.
Masonry continues to flourish throughout England , nearly fifty lodges having been added to the list in the course of the last year , and upwards of four thousand certificates issued , irrespective of those which have been sent to the colonies , in
blank , under recent regxxlations , of which no account has yet been received . During the six months we have lost tAvo Provincial Grand Masters—the Earl of Eortescue , for Devonshire , and Sir James Graham , M . P ., for Cxxmberland ; and many
other brethren have also been called to their final resting place , to receive the reward of their actions in this world . We have UOAV to look forward to the coming year , hoping it may be productive
of many blessings to the members of the Craft , and of prosperity to the charitable institutions connected with it . This is not the place to speak of those institxitions , bxit Ave may remind the brethren that the Annxial Festival of the Eoyal Benevolent Institution for Aged Masons and their Widows will take place on the 29 th January ,
tuider the Presidency of the Eight Hon . Earl de Grey and Eipon , D . Grand Master ; that of the Boys' School on the 12 th March , with the Eight Hon . Lord Leigh , Prov . Grand Master for Warwickshire , in the chair ; ancl that of the Girls' School on the 14 th May , when the chair will be filled by the M . W . Grand Master the Bight Hon .
the Earl of Zetland , K . T ., when we hope they will all be liberally supported . We shall make no professions of what will , be done by THE FREEMASONS MAGAZINE in the future , being content to rely on our services in the past as our best
