The growing prosperity of the Order , and the increased activity of its members , seemed to some , probably

more in advance of the age than their Fellow Craftsmen , to demand larger means of information , and to require a more continuous chronicle of events than could , by any possibility , be afforded through the medium of a three months' regular issue of their Organ . The price , also , of the publication was a bar to its circulation ; and the spirit in which it was conducted for several years , prior to its changing hands in 1850 , both with respect to Proprietors and Editor , unhappily very much tended to detract from its usefulness .

Since the year 1850 , several changes have been made in the method of conducting the Freemasons' Quabtebly . For two years it was carried on exclusively by means of gratuitous contributions . In 1852 , the then Proprietors relinquished their connection with the undertaking , and the Brethren who took their place , resolved to commence active operations , by offering remuneration
