High Cross Lodge, No. 754.

HIGH CROSS LODGE , No . 754 .

THE Annual Meeting of this Lodge was held at the Seven Sisters ' Hotel , Tottenham , on Wednesday , when Bro . James Garrod was placed in the chair . The meeting was well attended both by members and visitors ; the work was admirably performed by the I . P . M . Bro . Clements , while the after proceedings wore of a most enjoyable character . All things considered , the installation meeting of 1881 may be prononnced one of the most successful known in the Lodge .

After the usnal formalities Bro . James Garrod was introduced , obligated , and installed , and having been sainted , he invested the following brethren as his Officers , viz . —Bros . Tegg S . W ., Lewis J . W ., Dance P . M . Treas ., Cunningham P . M . Pec , Fidler S . D ., Rowe J . D ., Meek D . C , Gooflnll and Gilling Stewards , and Very Tyler . The ceremony of installation was then completed , and the Lodge wns

closed . Among the Visitors who were present were Bros . A . M . Broad ' ey P . D . D . G . M . Malta , P . Binckes P . G . Steward , G . Perry W . M . 1110 , J . Chapman 1768 , J . H .

The brethren then repaired to the banquet room , wh ere an excellent repast was provided b y the host , Bro . Oddy , and to which ample justice wns done . At its conclusion , and after grace had been said , tho W . M . proposed tbe toast of the Qaeen , with

which was conpled that of the Craft . This was heartily acknowledged , and followed by that of H . R . H . the Prince of Wales M . W . G . M ., after which the W . M . proposed that of the Grand Oflicers Present aud Past . In introducing this toast he had great p leasure in referring to the presence of a distinguished brother , the

Past District Grand Mastpr of Malta , Bro . Broadley . Coming from such a distance , the W . M . felt nil the greater pleasure in mentinning the name of Bro . Broadley in connection with this toast . The District with which he was associated was just now in a turbulent state , bnt he trusted that tho troub e there had not interfered with the Masonic brethren , whom he understood were very numerous and united thero .
