THE regular meeting was held at Freemasons' Hall, Manchester, on Friday, the 9 th inst. PROVINCIAL GRAND LODGE OF LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE. Goddin ' s address is 114 Graham-road, Dalston, N. The particulars of the case are well known to several brethren, who aro desirous to render aid to the unfortunate family. With these exceptions, the family are without the means of support. Say that one girl, Minnie Constance, was elected to the School last October, and the eldest son is earning a few shillings per week. Help for the dear little children is most earnestly solicited. It is feared she is fast sinking, a victim to that fatal malady consumption. Tho widow has been keeping a small school, but this she has had to relinquish in consequence of her extreme ill health. David Goddin, who died 4 th January 1875, leaving a widow and seven youngĬhildren totally unprovided for.

'A tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying-nothing !' I am, Dear Sir and Brother, Yours very truly and fraternally, P. If by the latter date there are not at least 300 members enrolled, I, for self, and many others say, that all the talk of the past few years as to the necessity for the Hall and the support which should be given ' when it was erected ' is but as Np to the first of January 1878 candidates may be admitted ivitliout joining fee. It will open on the first day of December next, and Now for a practical reply from the brethren themselves ! The Club is formed by fifty members, from amongst whom fifteen well-known Masons have been selected for general management during the ensuing year. These are but a few of the many arguments which might be adduced in favour of the project ,Īnd these for the present must suffice. And again, the oft-reiterated desire to separate our Lodge meetings from the baneful influence of the ordinary tavern will be consummated. Lodges in the general society of the Club the grand principles of our Order will be promoted to an extent beyond the power of each individual section of the Craft.

Another important reason is, that by tho congregating of the members of numerous Hall to devote tho entire building to the solo use of the Craft whilst tho income from other indirect sources might well maintain the Club itself ? I look npon this opportunity for securing the Hall as a place for Masonic purposes only as the chief reason for tho united efforts of the South Metropolitan brethren. With such advantages as aro above stated may not the promoters of this Club fairly expect that they will have the support of many hundreds of their brethren, and by means of their aggregate subscriptions enable the proprietor or proprietors of the Surrey Masonic Arrangements will be made for the supply of refreshments, under regulations carefully framed, to secure a proper use, and prevent tho abuse of thoso necessaries to social enjoyment, and the whole conduct of the Club will be under the control of a general committee, selected annually fromĪmongst the members, and for whoso actions in relation thereto the proprietary will accept all responsibility. Veniences, will be at the daily service of each member from eleven o ' clock iu the forenoon until nearly midnight.
