Grand Festival Of The Order.

who dearly loved and sincerely revered him . The noble Chairman trusted that , with the kind blessing of Providence , His Royal Highness would before long be so far recovered from his infirmity , as to be enabled to mingle once more amongst his Masonic Brethren , to receive the tribute of their affection and esteem , and to shed , by his presence , a lustre over their proceedings . He had been requested by His Royal Highnessto express to the assembled Brethren the deep regret which

, His Royal Highness felt at being obliged to be absent from the festival ; that nothing , whilst he had life , should ever lessen his attachment to them , or alter the heartfelt wishes which he had ever entertained for their welfare , and for the honour and prosperity of the Craft . The noble Chairman was quite aware of the arduous nature of the duties imposed on him as president of the banquet , and of his incapability to fulfil them to the extent of his own wishes , and the satisfaction of those

he saw around him ; but he would throw himself on their characteristic kindliness , in it his weakness would find a sympathy , and the goodness of the Mason ' s heart would make up for his own deficiency . If to these kind auxiliaries he needed additional support , he had it in the person of his noble friend on his right , the Deputy Grancl Master , Lord John Churchill . The noble Chairman then gave the health of " The Grand Master , His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex , " which was received with the most enthusiastic and long continued cheering . Lord John Churchill shortly afterwards rose and said , that he apprehended his noble friend needed no assistance whatever in the discharge

of his duties as president of the banquet ; he was a veteran in the cause , a long-tried and revered leading member of the Order , and he was surrounded that evening by hearts as honest and as warm as ever beat for the honour of Masonry . " It would be impossible , " continued his lordship , "for me to express his merits as they deserve—indeed , if I had the abihty to do so , it would be abusing your time by trifling with your understanding . lam not , moreover , fond of long speeches ; you all

know him , I therefore do not think that I can better accord with your wishes in his regard , than by leaving him at once , and without further comment , to the esteem which you entertain for him , and to which his long seivice and his honours are entitled . Gentlemen , fill as you love him—fill high to the health of ' The Pro .-Grand Master , Lord Dundas . '" ( Great cheering , which lasted for some minutes . ) The noble Chairman returned thanks . It ever had , as it ever should

be , his ardent hope and earnest endeavour to promote the honour of Masonry , and to prove worthy of the confidence reposed in him by his Brethren of the Craft . He felt highly flattered , as well by the kind manner in which his health had been proposed , as by the strong manifestations of regard with which it had been received . His noble friend was not more partial to short speeches than he was himself . AVhatever he said came from the sincerity of a true Mason ' s heart , and with all

the frankness of a British sailor . " The state of my health , " said the noble Chairman , " and my avocations , prevent me from being amongst you as often as I could wish . The deprivation is my own ; such a circumstance cannot be felt by you . The services which a shattered old man can render are not of such value as that their absence should be deplored . M y Brethren , I have grown grey in your service , and in your service I shall die . To the utmost of my strength , if it be the will of Divine Providence to increase the sum of seventy years , I shall , be
