herself and her esteemed husband . 11 th Oct ., 1888 . " Bro . ¦ Beavis , in thanking the brethren for their kind gift , said that they could not have thought of anything which would have given him more gratification than the privilege they accorded him of making this personal present to his wife .

GOING TO PRESS . The pressure on our space this week has been so considerable that we have felt ourselves bound to temporarily withdraw the Exchange and Mart column , and also several items of interest connected with " Ritualistic Nuts to Crack " Just as our machine is

commencing its revolutions we receive about a column of report of a meeting of Lodge No . 1700 , held on the 4 th inst . AA e needhardljsay that the distance of date suffices to prohibit its inssrtion ; even had space allowed . At the same time we receive a report of similar length of a Lodge of Instruction held in Kent on the 11 th inst . In this case date would not have so much mattered , and if we had received it twenty-four hours earlier we should have given the

report the attsntion it so admirably merits , and have n voided the possibility of offending an esteemed correspondent , from whom we hope again to hear .
