Although Bro . May is but a young Mason of six or seven years old , yet the vast services he has rendered to the charities of our Order ( the aggregate of his three lists
amounting to above £ 800 ) cannot be too highly appreciated , and no opportunity can offer itself more fitting than the present for the brethren to evince , in a substantial form , the estimation in which he is so universally held . Bro . John Udall , P . G . D ., Avas voted the chair , and the minutes of the last meeting read by Bro . Beard , the Hon . Secretary . Various communications , containing offers of professional services , Avere read , and several amounts from lodges and individuals announced . Arrangements
