"Bro . Henry Carpenter , I have the honour to be deputed by our Brethren of the ' Industry Lodge of Instruction' to be their spokesman , or rather I should say , to be , on this occasion , the medium of communication from their hearts to yours . I am sorry their selection did not fall upon some one more competent to the gratifying task — upon some Past Master , some Brother older or more advanced in Masonry than myself , for then to you the compliment might have been the greater . Since , however , I am thus placed , I shall content myself with

the consoling reflection that no one could have approached you with a greater amount of sincerity of purpose wherewithal to discharge the honourable duty to which our Brothers have been pleased to call me . Bro . Carpenter , to the members of the Industry Lodge of Instruction your amiability of disposition has been long patent . Having experienced from you that unremitting kindness , that fraternal cordiality , marking at once the gentleman , the worthy soul , and the good Mason , the Brethren unanimously resolved to testify , by some token , their esteem ,

their gratitude , their affection . At the same time , it is our spontaneous hope that you may long be blessed with health to continue in your honourable office among us . Indulging , as we have been in the pleasures of hope , we would seek to mark the present by begging your acceptance of this testimonial , or more properly speaking , this soul-offering . This volume of the Sacred Laws keep in

memory of us , and of our good wishes . It was the gift of your own choice . Your sister , on leaving England for Australia some short time since ., implored from you your Family Bible ; you , in the fulness of your heart , could not refuse her . Since parting with it , you have felt a void at home ; that void we seek to fill , and ' As every want that stimulates the breast

Becomes a source of pleasure when redrest , ' so may this Book prove to you a source of the greatest consolation . Believe me , it comes to you surrounded with a halo of our brightest and holiest wishes ; and hereafter , when your eye rests upon it , think of us all and of the happy moments we have passed together in Masonry , as we are but mortal , and liable to—# * * * ( £ jie thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to /

" Should sickness or adversity assail you then , as in all cases of difficulty and danger , may the precepts herein contained be a sheet-anchor to your soul . Little can the uninitiated know by what holy links Masonry is connected with ' the good , the beautiful , and the true ; ' and when an uninitiated one contemplates
