Masonic Notes .

The Summer Entertainment to the inmates of the Royal Masonic Benevolent Institution , Croydon , was given at the Asylum on Wednesday , and , as usual , proved a gratifying success . There was a full attendance of the friends of the Institution , who numbered between 150 and 160 , and for whose comfort and

convenience on the outward and home journeys the South-Eastern Railway Company made due provision . Bro . George E . Fairchild , A . G . D . C , of the Committee of Management , occupied the chair , and was very ably supported by Bro . John Newton , G . Pursuivant , another member of the same Committee , and Bro .

James Terry , Secretary of the Institution , who was accompanied by Bro . J . G . Stevens , a principal member of his staff . It is almost needless to say that every effort was made , and most successfully made , to give the residents of the Institution as enjoyable a day as possible , and judging from our experience of previous years , we venture to think that this particular day ' s

enjoyment will not have been very far removed from the place of honour among these red-letter days . Upon the Criterion Handbell Ringers , under the direction of Bro . Harry Tipper , devolved the particular task of entertaining the residents and their numerous visitors , and if the applause which greeted their several performances is a criterion , the Ringers must have done well .
