Sir Knight Samuel Bryant , the M . E . C . of the Knights Bosse Crucis proposed , in an appropriate speech , " The Health of the Dep . Grand Master , Sir Knight D . W . Nash , " whose ability , courtesy , great Masonic knowledge and research , rendered him essentially qualified for the distinguished position he held amongst them . The Companions received this toast with rounds of applause , thus
testifying their esteem and regard for their Deputy Grand Master , who is deservedly most popular with all the Fraternity of his province . The Dep . Grand Master , in an eloquent and lengthened speech , replied , dilating upon several very interesting historical and other facts relating to the Order , and concluded by thanking the Sir Knights for the very handsome and kind manner in which they had received the toast .
The Dep . Grand Master next proposed , successively , " The Health of the E . Commander of the Bosse Crucis Camp , Sir Knight Samuel Bryant ; " " The Health of the E . Commander of Knights Templar , Sir Knight S . E . Taylor ;" of " The E . C . of the Sword , Crest , and Eagle , " Sir Knight George Chick ; and of " Sir Knight William Bo well , the E . G . of the Scotch Knights of Kilwinning : " these toasts were severally acknowledged .
In proposing " The health of the E . G . of the Nine Elect , " the Dep . Grand Master observed , that he regretted the Degree of Grand Elected Knights Kadosh , which had in former times been given in the Camp of Baldwyn , as in other of the ancient Encampments in England , had fallen into abeyance in this Encampment . It was a degree held in great estimation on the Continent , and had been revived in this country with great splendour by the Supreme Council of the 33 rd Degree , who were about , he believed , to establish consistories of the 30 th Degree of Knights Kadosh in several places in England .
The Dep . Grand Master next proposed "The Health of the E . G . and Companions of the Camp of Antiquity of Bath , " the sister Encampment of Baldwyn , which had been revived and was now working under the same authority ; he was delighted to see these ancient and time-honoured Camps rising again to their original splendour . Sir Knight S . E . Taylor , Past E . G . of the Camp of Antiquity , in
acknowledging the toast said , —" That at the request of the surviving Companion of the Knights of the old Camp , he had with considerable pleasure assisted in re-opening it . They could never forget the important fact that the late D . P . G . M . of Bristol , Bro . Husenbeth , was at one time the E . G ., and took much interest in its working and prosperity ; he , Sir Knight Taylor , had enjoyed the privilege of being the first Commander of that revived Camp . "
The memory of the late Grand Master and Superintendent , Sir Knight William Powell , was drunk in solemn silence . The health of the Sir Knights newly installed , and that of the Chancellor and Becorder , having been proposed and responded to , the Companions separated , having spent a most delightful evening .
