As F. and A. NJ, held last night, the lodge
showed it's appreciation Of the long and
faithful services of Past Master E. L.

half of the lodge in his most happy style,
abiding in the courss of his remarks to the
fact that he, among the younge members
of the lodge, had been selected to represent
the lodge in showing its appreciation Of the
services and example of perhaps, its Oldest
member, at least its senior past master.
The speaker paid merited tribute to the
past record and the splendid achievements
Of masonry. and mentioned some of the acts
OF Past Master Neidlinger in behalf OF the
ancient and bonored fraternity and particu-
larly his efforts in establishing and foster
ing Landrum Lodge.
The jewel was accepted by Past Master
Neidlinger in an appropriate and feeling
manner, and he renewed his fealty to
masonry and Landrum Lodge. He men
toned the fact that though his Brother
Leaken may be among the younger men,
bers OF the fra ernity he was not lacking in
masonic history and traditions. In this
respect he ranked among the oldest
Worshipful Master MacDonell also added
few appropriate remarks.
The jewel presented to Past Master Neid-
hnger is, indeed, a fine specimen of work
mauship and art 1t is circ lar in form,
with a surface band of blue enamel, on
which is engraved in a semi circle: Land
rum Lodge, r. and A. NJ and below, OF
the outer side Of the enamel, in imitation
Of wreath. the initials Of the recipient:
"E. l.. n" In the angle of the square
are the figures as. corresponding with the
number OF the lodge making the prese ia
ton. Upon two gold bars, from which the
jewel depends, connected by blue silk rib
bon, is graved: Presented to Past
Master Z. l. Neidlinger, Feb. l, 1889. ="
The emblem has all the peculiar and aupro-
pirate sym OILS Of past masters jewel, and
may bs recognized as such at a moments
glance.
