deuce reposed in him . Tbe Registrar stated that tho certificates o f hon . membership had been supplied to all those who had been elected both in America and in England , and had been much admired . Amongst the visitors present were E . Sir Knights W . Hill Sub . Prior of West Yorkshire , C . L . Mason E . P . Fidelity ( Leeds ) , S . E . Seanor

P . E . P ., W . Beanland P . E . P . Faith ( Bradford ) , Andrews P . E . P . and several others . A Priory of Malta was opened at the close of the Preceptory , and E . Sir Knight Cumberland wa 3 installed as E . P . by E . Sir Knight Whytehead . The members and their visitors afterwards met at supper , and passed a most enjoyable evening .

Lodge of Peace , No . 149 , Meltham . —This Lodge held its regular meeting on Saturday , 8 th March 1879 , in tho Masonio Rooms . Present—Bro . A . W . Derbyshire W . M ., H . "W . Wrigley S . W ., James Haigh P . M . as J . W ., D . Wood P . M . Treasurer , C . H . Eedfearn F . M . Secretary , William Sngg S . D ., John Heywood J . D ., James Wilkinson P . M . as I . G ., John Kenyon P . M . Tyler , David Cairns I . P . M ., W .

Haigh P . M ., Charles Rayner P . M ., Edwin Foster , J . W . Sykes and other brethren . After the minutes of last Lodge meeting bad been read and confirmed , Bro . Charles Rayner P . M . rose and said : AVorshipful Master and Brethren , —We are assembled here this evening under mournful circumstances . " In the midst of life wo are in death ; " " Man that is born of a woman hath but a short time to

live , and is full of misery ; ho Cometh up , and is cut down like a flower j he flcoth as it were a shadow , and never continueth in ouo stay . " These are solemn and impressive words , which are used in that grand old Church of England burial service of ours , and I think that they are not inappropriate for use on the present occasion . We had a startling proof of their truthfulness whilst assembled round tho

festivo board at our last Lodge meeting , for it was then that wo received the telegram from our absent W . M ., informing us of the unexpected death of our lamented Bro . George Haigh P . M . and P . P . G . D . of 0 . Whilst acting as his S . W . during his year of office as W . M . of this Lodge , I had many opportunities of eulogising his Masonic zeal and eminent talents . And now , brethren ,

as a last tribute of respect to his memory , and as a mark of onr deep and heartfelt sympathy with his sorrowing widow in her bereave , ment , I take this opportunity of proposing that a letter of condolence be sent to her , expressive of that sympathy . In taking upon myself to do this , I feci sure that my action is in harmony with your own feelings , and that my proposition will meet with your entire

approbation and receive your warm support . The loss to his widow is no ordinary one . She has been deprived of her partner in life , and the father of her children ; tho sharer of her sorrows and her joys ; and although he has left wealth behind him , he has also left behind him a proportionate amount of care , anxiety , and responsibility , much of which mnst of necessity fall upon her . As we all know , our deceased brother has been a most successful man in life . It was in tho year

1858 that be first commenced business on his own account , at the age of 21 years ; he was then a poor man , comparatively speaking . In the year 1878 , after a lapse of 20 year . " , he was generally acknowledged to have been ono of the most successful woollen cloth manufacturers in the Hnddendield district . But , alas ! After only five short weeks of the new year 187 !) had passed , he had to succumb to a dire discaso , whi'li lmrl spi > ed upon him with unrelenting severity , and carried him otf at ihc riirlv ii- 'o of 1 ! vents . The best medical skill was of

no avail to stop tho progress of that fell disease . Ho was cut oft in in the vory flower of manhood — in tho prime of life . He died , in full harness ; his hands filled with tho chief control and principal management of large concerns of

various kinds . Since our last Lodge meeting his remains have been committed to the grave , and we shall never more hear bis voice within these walls . We shall never again have the opportunity of enjoying such happy , social evenings with him in this room as those which some of us have reason to remember so

woll . Bnt althou . h his body is now enclnsod within the cold tomb , we ha r e n snre nnd a certain hope that his spirit has ascended to that magnificent temple from whence all goodness emanates . It can truly be said of him that he was both a groat aud a pood man . He could not bouRt of a high classical pdncntinn , bnt he was a man tbat had great aptitude for self-iniprovcmcnt . Uis leisure hours were

spent in pursuits of an intellectual in d an elevating kind . His energy of chaiacter , his quiet and unobtrusive perseverance in anything that he took in baud , and his well-known general abilities , won for him the confidence , respect , and iidnir : tion of all who knew him . Ontside bis family circle hi . i Joss will be severely felt , not alone by us , but by hundreds of other people , some of whom were

his bosom friends , others who were intimately acquainted with him in business , and other matters , and a preat many who had bad the good fortune to participate in the great benefits which he had been the means of bestowing upon the village of Sla hwiiite . His Masonic career , like his fjcncral career in life , ht a been a successful one . He was initiated into Masonry in tL s roi . m , by Brother

Doctor Haig P . M ., in Jnly 1869 . Ho wn « pD 3 sed in Arjgnst , and raised in September of tho same year , I believe by the same brother . In 1870 he did duty for Bro . Preston as I . G ., an I was appointed S . D . for 1871 . In 1872 he had no office , but he was ilways ready to take the place of any Officer who might happen to ho absent . He was appointed J . W . for 1873 , S . W . for 1871 , and was unanimously elected

W . M . for 1875 . The same year he was » ppomted a P . G . Steward , and a Steward for the R . M . Benevolent Institution . During his year of Office as W . M . he had two initiations , two passings , and two raisings , and received great praise for the ablo manner in which he performed the ceremonies . I followed him in the W . M . 's chair for 1876 , and he was I . P . M . It was during this year that the movement

was commenced , and successfully carried out , of establishing a new Masonic Lodge at Slaithwaitc . It was consecrated at the end of the year , on tbe 23 rd December , by the W . D . P . Grand Master Bro . Tew , J . P ., under the name of Colne Valley Lodge , No . 1645 , and I had the honour of installing him as the first W . M . In the year 1877 he was appointedjP . G . D . of C . „ During the first two years of the

existence of the Colne Valley Lodge his duties in connection with it as W . M . and I . P . M . were very arduous . He himself performed no lass than 45 ceremonies , besides taking part in others in which I and several frieDds went over to give him assistance . Ha had 13 initiations , 21 passings , and 11 raisings , the whole of which ceremonies he gave in a most efficient maDner , and with remarkable

impressiTeness . The last time that he attended this , his Mother Lodge , was at tbe Festival of St . John ' s , and the installation of his friend Bro . Derbyshire as W . M ., on the 21 st of last December . I have now traced his Masonic career in detail up to the end of 1878 , and tho beginning of 1879 ; a career which , for its energy and

usefulness we may say has been an extraordinary one . In conclusion , brethren , seeing that onr dear departed brother is now no mora—that it has pleased the Great Architect of the Universe to take him away from us , let ns never forget that wo too have but a short time to live . Let us ever remember

that" A few more years shall roll , A few more seasons come , And we shall be with those that rest , Asleep within the tomb . "

And when that great day shall arrive , let us all hope , aye , and fer . vently pTay , tbat we may be found with him in that Grand Lodge above where the world ' s great Architect lives and reigns for ever . The motion was seconded by Bro . H . W . Wrigley S . W ., and feelingly supported by Bro . Edwin Foster and the W . M .
