  • Masonic Aprons and Their Symbolism
    Masonic Aprons and their Symbolism. Introduction When I was initiated into Freemasonry I enjoyed the ritual for the Entered Apprentices Apron but found as I progressed through the other two degrees the ritual for the Aprons seemed not to match as nicely as it had for the 1st degree. I, therefore, resolved myself to investigate this and understand more of what our aprons signify. Aprons - Well what are they? An apron is a clothing garment that protects the wearer and stops their normal clothes from getting ruined. For example, a person who is cooking, doing carpentry, working as a blacksmith or doing stonework would all wear aprons. However, these aprons are a full length in size by this I mean they cover from the chest down to about the mid-thigh area of the legs. Whereas a masonic apron is worn from the waist down. The wearing of an apron has been used in religious ceremonies, for example, the Egyptian and Hebrew priests wore an Abnet which was considered an apron and it was meant to represent Authority. In the case of the apron in Masonry, it is an item that is used as a mark of favour from the Worshipful Master. The candidate is invested and is told that this is the badge of honour of the degree the mason has just taken part in. For example, after being initiated the new apprentice is invested with a white lambskin apron. Where he is told that it is an ancient emblem of purity and innocence. More honourable than the garter and older than the roman eagle.

All parts of this protocol apply on the death of the Sovereign (and, of course, those sections around the Accession Proclamation arise only on the Monarch’s death). Beyond that, implementation of the Protocol is a matter to be decided locally. This protocol offers guidance on how to mark a death.

BBC BROADCASTING HOUSE, STUDIO - DAY CLOSE ON a BBC microphone of the 1920's, A formidable piece of machinery suspended on springs.

  • The Journey of a New Mason
    The Berkshire Mentoring Programme The Journey of a new Mason Stage 3 AFTER PASSING Published by The Provincial Grand Lodge of Berkshire JONM.Stg3.Sept 14 - 1 - The Second Degree Tracing Board JONM.Stg3.Sept 14 - 2 - JONM.Stg3.Sept 14 - 3 - FOREWORD Having completed your Second Degree ceremony of Passing in Freemasonry, you are more than half way through your journey to becoming a Master Mason. We hope you have enjoyed both ceremonies so far and that your understanding of Freemasonry is somewhat deeper than it was initially. We hope that the previous booklet in the series of “The Journey of a New Mason”, Stage 2, After Initiation’, was helpful in answering some of those initial questions you may have had following your Initiation. You have probably had several more questions since then and certainly many more following your ‘Passing’ recently. This next booklet of the series, Stage 3, After Passing; will continue to develop your Masonic knowledge during your journey as a new mason, answering some of those questions you have encountered and enlightening you on more of the finer points of Freemasonry thus far. As before, there may be questions which may not be covered in this booklet. Your Personal Mentor should be able to answer any that are not, when he discusses the subjects in the booklet with you. However, you can be forgiven if you think there is a long way to go. As was stressed at the end of the last booklet, the subject of Freemasonry is so extensive, and so challenging to the enquiring mind, that you will never stop learning.

  • Mayoral Regalia for the Lowestoft Town Council
    Mayoral Regalia for the Lowestoft Town Council A report on the history, present condition and suggestions for new purchases of mayoral robes and accessories Written by A. Taylor January, 2020 1 Contents- History - 3 Present Inventory and Condition - 5 Suggest Requirements - 6 Tenders Outline -7 Climate Emergency Statement - 10 Appendix 1- Michaels Robes email -12 Appendix 2- Walters of Oxford Robes email- 14 Appendix 3- Ede and Ravencroft email -15 Appendix 4- Possible Robe Design - 17 2 The History of the Lowestoft Mayoral Regalia When Lowestoft was a Borough, it had an official Mayor. The first mayor was elected in 1885 and was Major Selwyn Wollaston Humphrey, who stayed in office a record 12 terms. Before that, Lowestoft was governed through parish councils and manor courts. In 1974, Lowestoft Borough was dissolved and absorbed into the Waveney District Council (WDC) and ceased to exist as a stand-alone entity. Between 1974 and 2016, the WDC appointed a ceremonial mayor to cut ribbons and attend events. The robes now owned by the Lowestoft Town Council (LTC) are from that time. While no one can say when they were purchased, it is guessed that they are at least 20 years old and could well be older. In 2017, Lowestoft Town Council was established and inherited the ceremonial robes, mace, and accessories from the WDC. The LTC Mayor is chair of the Council and has official day-to-day duties that don’t require any special regalia, but there are also duties outside of the council chambers where the Mayor is the public face and representative of the town, and those ceremonies and events require mayoral regalia.
