Gould of Uxhridge, D. D. G. M. of District No. 11a, paid his official visit and secured well pleas- ed with the. work which came under- his observation. Owing to the heavy rain and the almost impassable con- dition of the roads. few visiting brethren were. present from other lodges, an unusual thing on such oc- ‘casioiis. Leaving the lodge room, an excellent supper was served at. the Dominion Ilouse. \V. Bro. T. H. Trench was at the head of the table, the distinguished guest sat at his right, and on his left. was \V. Bre. A. L. Skeele. one of the oldest Masons in the Dominion. The chairman propos- ed “The King and the (Jr-aft,“ and after the National Anthem was heart- ily sung, \V. Bro. Nicholls proposed “ The Grand Lodge. Bro. Gould. This brought forth one of the best speeches from the D. I).G. M. that the brethren here have ever had the pleasure of listening to. In re- sponse to the toast, “Officers and Members of Richmond Lodge.” good speeches were given by most of the meiiihers present, and \V. Bro. T. Newton contributed a. song. Br'o.J.F.

Having listened to several brief speech» es by the chairman and members, iii- tei-niiiiuled with beautiful snatches of song by th: choir. the pastor was call- ed upon. He replied, that lie was ex- tremely grateful for the many kind- iics‘scs which he had received during his stay so far: that. liiiion and liar-- mony were absolutely necessary in the church and without these two functions no church could succeed; that some beloved ones. during the recent pad, have gone to their last resting place, and without a. doubt. be- fore aiiot her year had elapsed someone, either of those iiioinbcrs present or those absent would depart from our midst. He thanked those who remem- bered them so kindly and his hope and prayer is for a greater work done hereafter.
