• Eor many years past we have looked upon the " Keystone " ( published at Philadelphia , U . S . A . ) as one of the most regular and interesting of our exchanges , and had come to regard it as quite an old friend . On this account we confess to experiencing a certain amount of regret when we opened a recent

numberthe first of its 31 st year of issue—to find it altered in size and general appearance , although we at once recognised that the alteration in quantity had not led to a deterioration of quality . We hope our contemporary will reap a richer harvest year by year

in its present form than it did in the shape we have known it so long , and that the efforts of its conductors may be the means of maintaining and extending the principles of the Craft among its numerous readers .

"A SPRIG OF ACACIA . "

GENSEAL sorrow is expressed at the death of Bro . Dr . Hunter , a Mason well known in Clerkenwell and North London , who was regarded as a most promising member of the Order , and well-known as a staunch friend and entertaining companion .

BEO . Mark Eichards , of Granville-street , Shrewsbury , died after a brief illness on Sunday evening , 18 th ult ., at the age of 52 years . The deceased had been employed by Messrs . W . H . Smith and Son for the greater part of his life , and was held in high esteem not only by those with whom he was more

intimately connected , but by a wide circle of friends in Shrewsbury , Manchester , and in North and South Wales . Fifteen years ago , when acting as the representative of Messrs . Smith and Son , at Manchester , Bro . Eichards was promoted to the responsible position of superintendent of the North and South

Wales district , and took up his residence at Shrewsbury , where he soon made for himself a host of friends , who entertained the highest possible respect and regard for him . Several members of the Salopian Lodge of Charity attended the funeral , which took place the following Tuesday .

ON Thursday , 22 nd ult ., Bro . W . Henry Chalk , who for many years has been manager of Messrs . Burgess ' s Iron Foundry in Ongar-road , Brentwood , was killed on the railway in the vicinity of Brentwood Station . It appears that the deceased was going to attend a meeting of the Liberty of Havering Lodge , No .

1437 , at Eomford , and proceeded to the station along the incline through the goods-yard . " Grossing the metals from the down to the up side , he seems to have passed behind a down train , but before he reached the opposite side an up express caught him on the left shoulder . A doctor was quickly in attendance , but

found that the unfortunate man was quite dead . Our deceased Brother was a retired Sergt-Major of Volunteers , and wore the long-service decoration . He was also a zealous member

of the Independent Order of Oddfellows , and for some time had filled the position of Secretary to the Loyal Perseverance Lodge , He was well known and highly respected in Brentwood , and by his sad death Messrs . Burgess lose a good servant . *
