Consecration Of The Ulster Lodge, No. 2972.
Although not one of their number , he had Ulster blood in his veins , which increased his interest in the lodge . Wor . Bro . Tidmas , replying in a humorous vein , provoked hearty applause , which demonstrated the Irish national appreciation of humour .
ROI'E HltlDCiE , CARRICK-A-REDE , GIANT'S CAUSEWAY . Wor . Bro . Trew also replied , and on behalf of the remainder of the visitors expressed keen appreciation of the reception they had met with , and wished hearty success to
the lodge . Proposing the toast of " The Officers , " the Wor . Master said that shortly the brethren would be better able to judge ot their abilities , of which he had already a knowledge . Both his Wardens had passed the chair , and won reputation
in their own lodges , and the whole of his officers combined earnestness and ability . The Senior Warden , replying , assured the Wor . Master that it was a pleasure to him to serve a brother so qualified to command . It would be their endeavour to do credit to
Ulster and to the English Grand Lodge who had granted them a warrant . Not only would they dispense charity , but they would be careful to admit no one unworthy .
THE STEUCAXS , GIANT'S CAUSEWAY . The Junior Warden , following , said the Officers were determined to do their best and that best should not be bad . He would conclude by saying that that night was a great clay for Oukl Ireland .
The Wor . Master also called upon Bro . Stevenson , Chairman of the Ulster Association , who , although offered the important Post of First Wor . Master , had unselfishly taken the lowest post . He had clone a great service already by bringing Ulster Men together . Bro . StevensonInner Guard , replying , felt that as the
, infant Officer of the Lodge , the Wor . Master had conferred a great honour upon him by mentioning his position as Chairman of the Association . The duties of Freemasonry had impressed him more that evening than ever before , and it was gratifying to him that the Lodge had in some degree
emanated from the Association . The Wor . Master next proposed the toast of the Treasurer and Secretary , and he could not allow the opportunity to slip without expressing his high appreciation of the labours of those two excellent Brethren . From its first
inception to the launch of the lodge that night , they had been the mainspring and head . They were indefatigable in energy , and they would not be in the position that they were that night but for the services of Bro . John Irwin , who was an ideal Secretary , and who had been ably supported by the
DUNIiUOE CASTLE , COUNTY ANTRIM . Treasurer , Bro . R . A . McQuitty , who had been present at all the Committee Meetings , giving them the benefit of his great business tact and experience . He also held the position of Treasurer to the Association .
The Treasurer , replying , said that it was an error to suppose that no determination was to be met with only in Ireland , for the Secretary had just threatened him that if he did not reply first , he , the Secretary , would not reply at all . He thanked the Wor . Master for the compliment he had paid
him , and would continue to do his best for the beneht of the Lodge and its Members . The Secretary , Bro . John Irwin , replying , said the Wor . Master had spoken far 100 highly of his labours . He was grateful for the assistance which had been afforded to him b y
the other Officers . He had endeavoured to do his duty to the best of his ability ; if it had met with the approval of the Founders he was amply rewarded . Personally he was delighted with the success of their Consecration , and hoped to work many years for the benefit of the Lodge , with such an amiable colleague as the Treasurer . The Tyler ' s toast concluded a most successful evening .
