Tudor Trevor ) cordially endorsed what had been said , and heartily welcomed all who had joined their festivitios . One lady had told him that
since her husband had been made a Mason he had been a bettor man . It was good to have the ladies in their midst occasionally , for it showed them that their husbands and brothers knew how to enjoy themselves in a rational manner . When they saw a Mason misconducting himself he urged them to remember that it was not thc
system of Freemasonry that was to blame , but poor human nature . A good Masou could not but be a good man in every relation in life . Bro . Smithson iu a few well chosen sentences assured the brethren and ladies that ho was amply repaid for any trouble he had been at by the evident enjoyment of all who had participated in the day ' a
excuision . A move was then made for tho Castle , the beantiful grounds of which were much enjoyed ; afterwards an hour was spent on the river . Several of the brethreu and ladies visited Hol y Trinity Church , when , through the extreme courtesy and kindness of the vicar , the Rev . E . J . Rurnskil , the beantiful edifice was thrown
open for their inspection . The Key . Mr . Wilkinson gave another rehearsal on the beautiful organ , and Mrs . Baily , who possesses a rich contralto voice of great power and beauty , materially added to the enjoyment of those who had b eu fortunate enough to join this section of tho party . Soon afterwards tho whole of the party united
and hilt for Leeds , which was retiched in safety about 10 * 30 . Thus closed one of the happiest days in tho history of this Lodge , and one the memory of which will long be cherished . Both brethren and
visitors were unanimous in their expressions of delight at the success of the excursion , and the hope was expressed , especially by the ladies , that no long period would be eUowed to elapse ere the the next picric .
