It is with thc deepest regret wc announce the death , after a brief illness, of Bro. the Right Hon. the Earl of LATHOM , G.C.B., M.W. Pro Grand Master of England, and R.W. Prov. Grand Maste r of the Western Division of Lancashire. His lordship was on the eve of starting on a yachting excursion when he was overtaken by illness of thc most serious kind , and , though the earlier reports seemed favourable to his recovery , the attack ultimately proved fatal , and on Saturday, the 19th inst., one of thc kindest and most generous of men , as well as one of the most distinguished and most popular and respected among the rulers of English Masonry passed from life into eternity, to the infinite sorrow of his famil y, his friends ", his brother Masons, and, indeed , of all who knew him , or had ever had the good fortune to be brought in contact with him in any of the numerous positions hc had occup ied , and so greatly adorned. There is no doubt his health and strength had been seriousl y impaired by the severe loss he suffered a year ago, when the Countess of LATHOM was thrown from her carriage and killed , while returning home from lunch with a shooting party. After the lirst seizure, there appeared to be some hopes of his rall ying, but the attacks were and till a year or two since was Great Prior of the Order of the again and again renewed , and death supervened as we have Temple, while at the time of his death he was, as he had been for many years, Sovereign G.

  • The First One Hundred 1890
    THE GRAND LODGE OF ANTIENT, FREE AND ACCEPTED MASONS 017 TASMANIA THE FIRST ONE HUNDRED YEARS 1890 - 1990 FOREWORD The initial research leading up to this publication was carried out by Wor. Bro. Hugh Middleton. We thank him for painstakingly examining the reports and minutes that reflect the activities of the Grand Lodgeof Tasmania over the last 100 years. This volume does not purport to be a historyof freemasonry in Tasmania, This would entail a close look at the records of individual lodges. But we have here a historical record of freemasonry in Tasmania as seen by the Grarid Masters and the Boards of General Purposes. You will find excerpts from what must have been stirring speeches at the time of their delivery. They still make good reading. You will wonder at the fortitude of our brethren who travelled the length and breadth of Tasmania in the early days. Indeed they travelled by sea to get to the West Coast. If this book is nothing more it is an acknowledgement that the freemasons of 1990 give thanks to their predecessorswho worked so hard to establish the craft in Tasmania. M.L. YAXLEY Chairman, Editorial Committee EDITORIALCOMMITTEE The original research for this volume was conducted by Wor. Bro.

  • Tidbits of Masonic Trivia
    Tidbits of Masonic Trivia * In 1794 a Masonic token was minted in honor of the Prince of Wales in England. A son of George III, he later became George the IV. From 1790 to 1813 he served as the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of England. The originator of the coin was Brother James Sketchley of Birmingham who created the coin to commemorate the election of the Prince as Grand Master. These coins were so superior in their copper content that they readily became legal tender. In 1817 they were withdrawn from circulation by government order. 1794 Masonic token * James O. Halliwell-Phillips, and English antiquarian and librarian, was not a Mason. While engaged in his work, he came across a manuscript in the British Museum catalogued as A Poem of Moral Duty. It was actually a statement of the "Old Masonic Charges" in poetic form. It is believed to have been prepared in 1390, thus making it the oldest known Masonic document. Now called the Regius Poem, or the Halliwell Manuscript, it was published in 1840 in a brochure entitled On the Introduction of Freemasonry into England. * In 1835 a group of Masons met under a large oak tree in Brazoria, Texas (just south of what is now Houston) and took the first step to form Holland Lodge No. 1. The tree, known as the Masonic Oak, has continued to grow and is still in existence. On May 15, 1966, the Masons of Texas made a pilgrimage to the Oak. There was singing, dinner, preaching and much fun.

  • Famous Freemasons
    FAMOUS FREEMASONS At our last meeting when the Brother Initiate was placed at the North East part of the Lodge he was instructed about CHARITY. During this part of the ceremony there is a passage in the ritual which goes-‘In a society so widely extended as Freemasonry, the branches of which are spread over the four quarters of the globe, it cannot be denied that we have many members of rank & opulence…’ As always when I listen to our ritual, I try to discover something new in it. So, when I returned home I sat down to list all the famous Freemasons I could recollect-. I managed 3-Our Grand Master, the Duke of Kent, George Washington & Mozart. There must have been many, many more I thought, especially in my chosen career of medicine. As one does in the 21st century I turned to Wikipedia and was transfixed by the many names on my computer screen reading them almost to sunrise. There are some great freemasons (& I see many as I look around Victoria Lodge) & there are some great men who were/or are Freemasons. Justifiably our world-wide fraternity takes pride in having men of stature as members. No less than 16 American Presidents (I can state with a sigh of relief that Donald Trump is not one of them) were Freemasons starting with the first, George Washington. Some that most of us remember include Franklin D. & also Theodore Roosevelt & Harry Truman. I will return to Washington later. There are other great leaders & politicians such as Sir Winston Churchill, Benjamin Franklin, Napoleon Bonaparte, Simon Bolivar, Nelson Mandela, the Rev.
