He was glad to know that it was becoming better understood , and that throughout Scotland and England , and particularly the west of Scotland , Masonry had within the last two years revived . Nowhere had that revival been more manifest than in Dumbartonshire , and especially the Vale of Leven . In Dumbarton burgh they had had a large increase of members ; but of late there seemed to be a kind of pause , probably due to the dulness of trade . In tho Vale of Leven it was astonishing

to see the interest taken in the matter . Much as was tho pleasure he anticipated from enjoying himself with the brethren of the same Order , he had not the slightest idea he would meet with so many members of the St . Andrew's Lodge and so many gentlemen who , he knew , were good men , and who , he was certain , would prove to be good Masons . Bro . Bennet concluded by suggesting that the Masons of Dumbartonshire should , under the presidency of their Prov . G . M ., Bro .

Smollett , meet next autumn , either at Dumbarton or Ballocb , and by expressing the belief that by such gatherings they would do more to promote Masonry than any other course they might pursue , except that of exhibiting Masonry in their lives and conduct . The chairman liaving expressed his sympathy with the remarks that had just been made , proposed "All Good Masons throughout the World . " The other toasts were" Lodge 170 , " replied to by Bro . Mony ; " Lodge 38 , " replied to

by Bro . M'Gregor ; " Lodge St . Mark ' s , 102 ; " " The Memory of Burns ; " and "Bro . Menzies of Bulloch Hotel . " Bro . Bennet , W . M ., in proposing "The Health of Bro . M'Leish , WM ., " observed that much of the success which had attended Masonry iu the Vale was clue to their chairman , and that he had , in discharging the important duties of the evening , manifested singular ability , tact , and knowledge of Masonry .
