of choosing Baltimore as the next place
of meeting of the Sovereign Grand Lodge,
The District members of the Sovereign
Grand Lodge are William P. Allan, Fred
A. Stier, and Thomas w. Fowler The
"Fraternal Record" of this city, says:
''The Record joins with many of its
exchanges in urging Baltimore as the
meeting place of the Sovereign Grand
Lodge in 1903. 1t is the birthplace OF the
order; it is there the headquarters of
the order are located, and an excellent
place in the country In which to meet
so far as expense is concerned. For sew
eral years Baltimore has been considered
and has received considerable support in
the Sovereign Grand Lodge. 1t is said by
those not favoring Baltimore that it is
time enough to go there when invited
This obstacle, If it can be SO called, has
been removed. for at the last session of
the Grand Encampment of Maryland the
Grand Representatives were instructed to
extend an invitation to the Sovereign
Grand Lodge to hold its session OF 1893
in Baltimore"
