Provincial.
He began to feel in effect that Bro . Bloomer had already given him the kick out , but he would keep him in suspense for another month . He had his good qualities , but he also possessed many faults and failings , which he would not stop to point out then . They had both been born in Masonry at the same time , and had been fast friends since . He congratulated the Brethren upon the admirable choice which they had made , feeling sure that Bro . Bloomer would fully justify the confidence they were about to repose in him .
Bro . Bloomer , in reply , tendered his heartiest thanks to the W . M . for alluding to his defections , which he acknowledged , but still hoped that Bro . Crone and the Brethren generally would be lenient towards him . He promised that no pains should be spared on his part to uphold the prestige of that honoured Arohiteet Lodge , reverting at the same time to its many charities , and the good feeling existing among its members .
Bro . Crone then submitted the toast of the visitors . The next and last toast was one of great importance . It went without saying that on an ordinary Lodge night the members of the Architect Lodge were always pleased to see Brethren from other Lodges , but on an extraordinary evening like that—when besides non-Masons they were honoured by the presence of so many ladies , they would be sadly wanting in those feelings of generosity which as Masons they professed , if they did not accord to the visitors a most hearty and cordial welcome . He was delighted to see them , and hoped all would spend a most enjoyable evening together .
Bro . Rawle P . M . having responded on behalf of Mrs . Rawle , who had been called upon for a few words , Bro . Albert Jarratt spoke , making a racy and vigorous speech . All present were deeply impressed with the remarkable simplicity of his language , combined as it was with an intensely vivid description , and a wonderfully graphic power of utterance ; the silence , almost impalpably felt , which he exacted from his audience being an eloquent commentary on his oration .
Bro . James Lambert P . M . congratulated the W . M . upon the splendid gathering of that night , and as an Officer of Grand Lodge alluded in flattering terms to the position which the Architect Lodge had attained in West Lancashire , the largest of the Provinces , which contained more members than any other in England . Mr . Dent and Bro . Morton also spoke . The company then retired to a room which had been specially furnished for their reception , and here they were entertained by the efforts of a few musical Brethren , including Bros . Hy . Nail , Riley Walker , John Grimshaw , J . Smith , Ridsdale Bowley , and others .
The now well-known Masonic ode , " In praise of the Divine , ! ' was rendered , the accompanists being Bros . C . Tallent-Bateman , and Dr . Henry Watson , the respective author and composer . Bro . Alfred Pickford P . M . D . C . recited tho " Absent Minded Beggar , " and the collection which was made resulted in a sum of £ 5 . This was the third time upon which Bro . Pickford had distinguished himself in Bro . Kipling ' s poem , and the gross amount realised by his efforts reaches the magnificent total of £ 12 . At the close of the entertainment dancing was indulged in , which lasted far on'into the matin .

CONFIDENCE LODGE , No . 193 . NOTWITHSTANDING the meeting of the Mother Lodge being held on Monday , a large number of Brethren and Visitors attended'the Lodge of Instruction at the Bunch of Grapes , Lime Street , on Wednesday evening .
