days before such meeting , and that no candidate be proposed for ballot who shall have been disapproved by the Prov G . Commander or his Deputy . Sir Knt . C . Mathews seconded the motion .
Sir Knt . The Earl of Limerick remarked that the motion divided itself into two parts . It was essential that the Prov . G . Commander should have the summonses sent to him , as he being responsible for his Province , ought to be kept informed of what was going on . The second part of the motion conferred no greater powers on Prov . G . Commanders than they ought to possess ; they would act under great responsibility , aud it was
not at all likely that they would object to a candidate except for strong reasons and in the interests of the Order , and there would still remain an appeal to Grand Conclave . Sir Knight Rev . J .

Motions for Grants from the Benevolent Fund of £ 50 to Sir Knight J , and £ 5 fo the AVidow of a late Sir Knight G , were then made , and being duly seconded were carried . The Grand Almoner collected the alms , ancl the Grand Conclave was closed in ample form . After the Grand Conclave the Knights adjourned to a banquet ,
at which the M . E . and S . G . Master presided , supported by the Rev . J . Huyshe , D . G . M . ; Earl of Limerick , G . Prior ; Lord Eliot , and a larger number of Knights than had for a longtime attended the banquets after Grand Conclave meetings . AVe cannot refrain from expressing our gratification at the efficient arrangements which were made under the direction of
the Grand Director of Ceremonies , and his able and energetic assistant , Sir Knight J . F . Starkey , who , we are glad to learn , will receive by the Grand Master ' s Ratent the Rank of Past G . Director of Ceremonies , in recognition of his service * .
