Presentation At Folkestone.

energy , guidance , and assistance in the cause . He had identified himself very closely with the Temple Lodge . It was mainly due to his influence and hearty co-operation that those premises were erected , and to him they were indebted for the happy home they had there for Masonry , and also for the establishment of their Masonic Club . In the name of the Brethren of the Temple Lodge , and the members of the Masonic Club , he had very great pleasure in asking Bro . Hart to accept the massive and beautiful silver service , as a slight recognition of the splendid service he had rendered .

Having handed over the service , Bro . Saunders went on to say : —It is also the wish of the Brethren that you will allow your portrait to be either painted or photographed , so that we may have it in the Lodge or the Lodge Eoom . I also , on' behalf of the Brethren , hand to you this brooch , and I hope you will take it to your wife and ask her to accept it . I am sure I express the sentiments of all your friends when I say that we hope that the happiness of your home life may be continued for many many years untainted by sorrow . May the Temple Lodge and this Masonic Club long have your assistance and help .

Bro . Hart said he hoped the Brethren would excuse him on that occasion for he was quite overcome and utterly unable to reply for the most generous reception which they had giyen him . It was quite overwhelming . His connection with Masonry had always been exceedingly pleasant ; it had gained him hosts of friends , and he sincerely hoped he would never lose one of them . Any little services he might have rendered to the cause of Masonry he was sure had been more than fully repaid by the kind recognition they

had always received at the hands of his Brethren , especially those of the Temple Lodge . He was , however , at that moment , utterly at a loss for words , and quite unable to express the gratitude he felt for the exceedingly kind reception accorded him that night , and that beautiful token which had been presented for his acceptance . He knew nothing of it , and it came to him as a * very great surprise . He assured them that he should try to deserve it and should treasure it to the last day of his life . In fact it would hardly be out

of his mind , day os night . For what ha had done in the cause of Masonry they had been more than generous in their reception and treatment of him . What touched him more than anything else was tbe kindl y reference to his good wife and their hearty reception of her name . He was sure she would feel with him that that was one of the proudest days of

their life . It was certainly the proudest day in all his Masonic career . He had always previously regarded in that light the very high honour bestowed upon him when the Prov . G . Master conferred upon him the office of Junior Warden of Kent , but the present surpassed it . Under all the circumstances he asked them to kindly excuse him from attempting to express his deep feelings .

Albert Pike.

ALBERT PIKE .

THE following questions appear in " Notes and Queries " : Some of the ridiculous French books directed against the English , the Jews , and the Freemasons , contain allusions to one Albert Pike , an American , who is said to have been "the chief of world-wide Freemasonry . " Who was he ? What claim had he to authority in Masonry ? Was he Colonel Pike , the trapper , after -whom Pike's Peak is named?—F . A . B .
