made no mistake . Bro . Westfield was a Mason of some twenty-five years' standing , and was in every way qualified to fill the chair ol Worshipful Master . Ever since he had taken office he had left no stone unturned to render himself worthy of the office he now held . They had shown their approbation of those efforts by electing
him to the chair of their Lodge , and also as their representative on the Charity Committee of the province , and he felt sure that they would never regret their choice . Bro . Westfield , in reply , said he did not know that ho could do more than express his gratitude for tho very high honour done him that
day . It was his determination , during his year of office , to do all in his power to promote tho welfare of tho Lodge and the happiness of the brethren . Those two objects he should confcinudly keep in view ; this motive had actuated him indeed , ever since ho became a founder of the Lodge . He should get ns many good Masons as he could to
join the Lodge , and so far ns tho Constitutions of the Order allowed him , ho shonld use hi-best endeavours to induce good candidates to be initiated in it . That would bo his fust endeavour ; his second would be to carry out his duties strictly and impartially , and ho should expect and indeed cull upon every Officer of the Lodgo to do
the same . No Master ever went into the ch-iir with a better staff of Officers , and with their assistance he confidently looked forward to a good year of office . Ho asked the Past Masters to assist him , and if at any time one of them should say to him , "You aro wrong , " then ho would gladly say " Put mo right , " aud wonld feel ifc as a favour
for any Past Master to do so . He trusted they might all be united in one bond of friendship , and that brotherly love and unity might prevail at all their meetings , so that when , they parted , they might look forward with pleasurable anticipation to their next happy meeting . He again thanked them for their hearty reception of the toast ,
and resumed his seat amid cheers . The next toast was that of the Installing Officer , and in putting it the Worshipfnl Master spoke highly of the admirable manner in which Bro . Lewis had carried out the duties . He also presented Bro . Lewis with a handsome and valuable P . M . ' s jewel , as a mark of the approbation and esteem of
the brethren . He trusted Bro . Lewis might live long to wear it , and then—as Mrs . Gamp said— " hand it down to prosperity . " He also presented Bro . Lewis with a P . M . 's collar , aa a present from the brethren of the Lodge ; and warmly congratulated him on receiving such undoubted marks of the esteem and affection of the brethren .
