The Madras District.
THE MADRAS DISTRICT .
( Communique . ) Some natural irritation has been felt by many of the brethren in Southern India , in consequence of the part played by District Grand Lodge , or at least by some of the officials of that body since the demise of the late D . G . M . , V . W . Bro . John Miller . It would appear that soon after the
rhair of D . G . M . became vacant , an influential body of Masons , supported by the whole strength of the Bangalore Lodge , which is , undoubtebly , far away ' . he largest and most flourishing lodge of the district , if not of the whole of India itself , submitted toH . R . H . the Most Worshipful Grand Master , the name of a very distinguished brother whose lengthened service in the Craft , great experience and
universal popularity , rendered him peculiarly fitted to assume the reins of Masonic government in Southern India . This memorial met the approval of the lodges at Bellary , Trichinopoly , Wellington , Mysore , Pallamattah , and the Mount Lodge , Madras , & c , & c . These proceedings seem to have been viewed with a very jealous eye by the D G . L ., and an attempt was made to shew that the proceedings of
the Bangalore Committee , as it was called , were illegal and utterly unmasonic . Early in May , at the very hottest season of the year , when a railway journey was positively dangerous to life , a meeting of D . G . L . at Madras was summoned , and the name of another brother , very intimately connected with District Grand Lodge , was brought forward , and a
resolution passed that this brother's name should be submitted to I-I . R . H . the Most Worshipful Grand Master , as the nominee of D . G . L . At this meeting of D . G . L . not a single Mason from the country was present , save two or three brethren from Bangalore . To the proceedings of this meeting a protest was recorded by the Bangalore Committee , and within a fortnight or so , the same was foiwarded to
London . Much about this time , or very soon after , a letter dated 4 th May , 1878 , was received by the D . G . Secretary from the Grand Secretary . Upwards of two months and a half were allowed to pass , when , suddenly , in the middle of August , a circular letter was forwarded to all the lodges of the district , signed by the D . G . Secretary . This letter
specially pleaded for the support of the W . Ms ., P . Ms ., and Wardens of the lodges , in favour of the District Grand Lodge nominee , and added that this was done in compliance with a letter from G . L ., a copy of which appeared in another page . The G . Secretary ' s letter was dated 4 th May , and after acknowledging receipt of information of the death of the
late D . G . M ., desired that the sentiments of the various lodges should be taken as to the nomination of a brother , to enable the M . W . the Grand Master to arrive at a just conclusion in the election of a successor to the late D . G . M . Naturallyfeverybody asked—why was the Grand Secretary ' s letter kept so long pigeon-holed . ' Why were the orders of H . R . H . the Most Worshipful the Grand Master treated
with such utter indifference and want of respect ? It certainly doesseem clear that if the orders from Grand Lodge had met with a ready compliance H . R . H . the Most Worshipful Grand Master would long ere this have been in a position to exercise his prerogative with that care and judgment which has ever characterised his choice for these appointments , and a considerable amount of local un .
pleasantness would have been spared . We do not wish to pass any harsh or hasty opinion on this matter ; no doubt some explanation may be forthcoming , but we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that District Grand Lodges , more especially . in distant countries , are liable to get into a groove out of which it is difficult to move them . They are , we think , too prone to think too much of their own immediate interests , to the detriment of the
welfare and interests of the various subordinate lodges , and if , as in the case in point , the appointment of D . G . M . has always been looked upon as a vested right of the presiding town , we shall not be sorry if the M . W . the Grand Master thinks it desirable to change the current of the stream , and infuse new blood and more widely extended experience into the Government of so important a district as that of Southern India .
