The Late Emperor Of Germany.
THE LATE EMPEROR OF GERMANY .
rpHE deceased Emperor , who for many years occupied the position of Protector of German Freemasonry , died yesterday morning at half past eight o ' clock . For some clays past the gravest fears
had been entertained in regard to the condition of His Majesty , and news of his death was hourly
expected . A report reached London on Thursday afternoon that he had passed away , hut this was contradicted later in the evening ; only to be followed , the next day , with authoritative news of his demise . The career of the late Emperor will doubtless be
sketched by more able pens than ours , it is only necessary for us here to express a word of sincere sympathy with our Brother Masons in Germany at the loss they have sustained by the death of one who had for so long occupied the most prominent position it was in their power to confer , both in the Masonic Order , and in Imperial affairs .
