THE Quarterly Court was held at Freemasons' Hall on the 9 th inst ., Bro . Richardeon P . G . D . in the chair . He was supported by Bros . Brett , Spaull , Massey , Wright , Smithson , Webb , Vincent , Britten , Peter de Lande Long , Nash , Kentish , Saunders , and Hedges Secretary . After preliminaries , Bro . Richardson P . G . D .
moved" That as a slight recognition of tho valuable services of Brothers Henry A . Hunt and Ralph Clntton , Honorary Architects , by which tho Institntion saved a sum of about £ 1 , 500 , the rank and privileges ol an Honorary Patron bo conferred upon each ol them . "
He said the motion was really a resolution of the Honse Committee , although it stood in his name . The brethren had heard that the cheques for the final payment for the work for the new buildings were passed last time , and now the Institntion waa in complete possession of the buildings
erected nnder the orders of the Centenary Committee with the money raised at the Centenary meeting . Thoso brethren who had seen the premises wonld agree with him that the Institution had now , in place of a very inconvenient one , as perfect a building as was to be found
anywhere in the country . There was every appliance—largo airy corridors—no going through one room to get to another , all rooms , kitchens , class rooms , and dormitories separate—a beautiful hall for children to do their exorcises in , as part and parcel of their education and necessary to
their health ; they knew aa a fact that the first thing to do when a building was to be erected wag to employ an architect , and the last thing to do was to pay him a very large commission . As soon as it was suggested that they should enlarge the premises ,
two members of the House Committee stepped into the gap and offered to do the whole thing for love of the Institution . They had carried it out most admirably , with the result that the Institution had saved at least £ 1500 in cash . Now the House Committee thought that
such a Masonic feeling as that ought in some way to be recognised , and had already passed a vote of thanks to these two brethren ; they alao thought that some further recognition should be given , and therefore by direction of the House Committee he proposed his resolution . Brother
Peter de L . Long P . G . D . seconded the motion . If it were not for occupying unnecessary time , he would like to say a few words about the vast amount of trouble and care ,
patience and diligence of Bros . Hunt and Glutton during the works in question , but he endorsed every word of the Chairman ; too mnch could not be said of the great services to the Institution of Brothers Hunt and Glutton .
Bro . Smithson gladly supported the proposition on behalf of the Province of West Yorkshire . The motion was carried unanimously . A case from East Lancashire came before the Conrt as to whether it shonld be placed on tho
list , and after considerable discussion it was rejected , the ground being that the child ' s health was not such as to justify her being taken into the School . It was stated by the Chairman , in answer to Bro . Britten , that a resolution of the Honse Committee to educate one child out of the
Institution after she had been there a long time arose . from the fact that tbe child had spent 242 days in the infirmary . Consequent upon thia a bed in the dormitories was vacant , and while there was an outcry for more admissions to tho School this was a very serious matter . There were two
other children in the infirmary who were deformed , and could not take part in any of the exercises that the others engaged in , or go out for a walk with them . A West Yorkshire girl , whose father had withdrawn her candidature was restored to the list . The Court then
settled the list of candidates for the October election at 27 , for whom there will be 18 vacancies . It was resolved to consider at a future time the point whether the petitioners should have henceforth a discretion to admit petitions which were presented less than 14 days before
the meeting ofthe General Committee—14 days being the regulation time . The Chairman announced that his Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught P . G . M . for Sussex , and Past Grand Master , had consented to take the chair at the 104 th Anniversary Festival of the Institution , next year . A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the proceedings .
We ate happy to state that Bro . George Pole Britten has been elected to the benefits of Morden College * Blackheath , and will go into residence on Monday next .
