would care to , sit if he were to rise to become a Worshipful Master . Bro . Knight said it was some years since he had been a member of the Lodge . As one of the Founders of the Lodge he took great interest in its earlier meetings and well remembered seeing the
present Master initiated . He was pleased to see the Lodge so prosperous . It had always been so , and probably because it had always made a feature of supporting the Charities of the Order . It had probably sent up more money to the Institutions than any other Lodge in a similar period .
The Officers were next toasted . The W . M . said certain laudatory things had been said of hfm , but he was about to tell them a fact , and that was , no matter how well he was able to do the work , it would be nothing without good Officers . He regretted the absence of Bro . Shurmur , who had initiated , passed and raised him in the Lodge , and would have installed him that day had his
health allowed his attendance , so that they could understand him when he said his whole Masonic life was associated with their Bro . Treasurer . The Secretary was well up in his duties , and performed the work of the Lodge so well as to induce the hope that he might be long spared to continue it , and he also felt he had a good array of other Officers .
Bros . Pizey S . W . and Clark Secretary responded , the latter trusting Bro . Shurmur might be spared for many years to support him in the work of the Lodge . What he had personally done had been carried out to the best of his ability , and in , the interests of the Lodge , and he trusted he might be spared for many years longer to be associated with the Lodge and its members .
The Tyler's toast was then given and the meeting brought to a conclusion . The music of the evening was under the direction of the Lodge Organist Bro . C . C . Holmes , who was assisted by Miss Edith Payne , Bro . Robert Dennant , Bro . W . Clifford , and Bro . W . H . Berry .
