SIR HUGH MYDDELTON LODGE , No . 1602 ,

THIS Lodge , named after the projector of the New River , Master Hugh Myddelton , who , in consideration of his eminent services , was knighted by James the First , but despite the immense boon he conferred upon the great metropolis , was permitted to die in a miser , able state of poverty , commenced the seventh year of its existence on Friday , the 26 th ultimo . Tho headquarters of the Lodge are at the

Agricultural Hall , Islington , but in consequence of the heavy de . mands upon space at this vast establishment for the Horse Show , held this week , tbe members assembled at the " Old Cock Taveru , " Highbury Corner . Lodge was opened at five o ' clock by tho W . M . Brother John Osborn , who was supported by Past Masters B . J . Sim , T . Coombes , and J . Weston ' . The other members and Officers of the

Lodge were in full force , while among the Visitors were Bros . S . J . Ball 1567 , R . H . Dillon M . C . 1567 , R . Pearcy P . M . 228 , F . J . Bird J . W . 1897 , W . Hurst S . W . 15 , S . J . Millin 1567 , Franklin Clive 1319 , J . E . Humphrey J . W . 167 , W . Berry Clarke 186 and 1507 , W . W . Morgan Sec . 211 . After the minutes of the preceding Lodge meeting had been read aud confirmed , the Balance Sheet and Report of

the Audit Committee was presented and adopted . The Balance Sheet showed an amount of £ 37 16 s 9 d in favour of the Lodge , but we should advise the amount of indebtedness from members to be kept lower , as we think improvement iri this desirable for all concerned . However sonnd the position of a Lodge , members should not be allowed to let their subscriptions fall into arrear . The Lodge , it

may be remarked here , has a Benevolent Fund , and a balance of £ 14 14 s 3 d stands to the credit side of the account . The event of the day , the installation of Bro . William Norris the W . M . elect , was next proceeded with . The outgoing Master , Bro . John Osborn , is well known as a careful and competent worker , and he performed the ceremony on this occasion in a faultless manner . On the

readmission of those brethren whose ineligibility prevented their joining the Board of Installed Masters , Bro . Norris was saluted in the three degrees , and he appointed the following aa his Officers for tbe ensuing year . —Bros . W . F Poulton S . W ., J . Greenfield J . W ., Sam . Ollidge Treas ., J . Osborn P . M . Sec , R . Allison S . D ., E . Payne ( named as ) J . D ., G . W . Larter I . G ., W . Wright Org ., F . F . E . Hayes M . C ,

G . Browne W . S ., C . A . Dettmer A . W . S ., Thomas Tyler . The several addresses were delivered by the Installing Master , and he took bis seat amid hearty congratulations on his having so ably fulfilled the duties of his year of office . It was unanimously agreed that in consideration of the services rendered to the Lcige by Bro . Wright , the Organist , that he be exempt from payment of Lodge dues , excepting ,

as a matter of course , the annual payment to Grand Lodge . After other business had received due consideration Lodge was closed . A neat and well served banquet , ably superintended by Bro . John Baker , was partaken of by the brethren and their guests . On the removal of the cloth , Bro . Norris briefly proposed the Loyal toasts , after which the National Anthem , and "God Bless the Prince of

Wales " was sung . Bro . Osborn proposed the health of the W . M . He was sure no man more deserved the success which had attended his efforts . Bro . Norris had shown a deep interest in securing the warrant of the Lodge , and he had worked well to advance it . Ho ( Bro . Osborn ) had been tbe sixth Master ; he urged the brethren to support their new W . M . In offering the toast of his health , he was

assured it would meet a hearty reception at the hands of the brethren . After a song— " Tom Bowling "—by Bro . Dettmer , came the reply of Bro , Norris . The I . P . M . had just put to him the question as to whether he was ready ? He had answered yes ; but when it came to the point he hardly knew what to say . However , he could assure the members he felt proud to receive so hearty a greeting , and

would strain every nerve to deserve the good wishes they had so lavishly vouchsafed him . As one of the founders of the Lodge he was gratified at seeing it in so prosperous a condition . Before resuming his seat , he would offer the next toast for their acceptance . Bro . Osborn likewise was one of the founders of the Sir Hugh Myddelton Lodge ; he had ably fulfilled the duties of

Secretary dnring the first years of its existence , and had now passed through the chair of the Lodge . His work had been done to the entire satisfaction of the members , who at the last meeting had unanimously voted him a jewel . This jewel it was now his ( Brother Norris ' s ) privilege to present . He did it with a fervent desire that Bro . Osborn might wear it for many years , and continue an honoured

and respected member . With great pleasure he wonld call on the brethren to drink to the health of the Immediate Past Master . The jewel , which had been handed round , was manufactured by Bro . Ollidge , Treasnrer of the Lodge , aud reflects great credit upon his artistic ability . Bro . Franklin Clive here gave the popular " German Student ' s Song , " which was enthusiastically applauded . Brother

Osborn , in responding , was exceedingly grateful to the W . M . for what he had said in his praise . Twelve months since the members bad placed him in the chair ; when he looked back upon the events of his term of office , he could but think his exertions bad met with their approval . Were anything needed to intensify this impression on his mind , he thought it would be found in the unanimity with

which the brethren had voted him the jewel . He was Secretary to the Lodge from the time of its commencement till he tcok tho office of Warden , and now he had passed the chair it was decided that ho should resume his old functions . Without egotism he mi ght say that as Secretary ho was in a position to further the interests of the Lodge , which should always command his services . He thought

the Lodge was on a fair road to prosperity ; they had had nine gentlemen initiated during tho time he ruled as Master , and it was very gratifying to know that other good men and truo were coming forward . In conclusion , Brother Osborn hoped he might live for many years to take part , in the proceedings . The other

toasts were clone ample justice to . The Visitors severally responded to the compliment paid them . Bro . Coombs replied for tho Past Masters , and male reference in sorrowful terms to the sad illness with whioh Bro . Somers was afflicted . The musical talent of the members was well exercised , Bros .
