GRAND SIRE
IS WELCOMED

John B. Goodwin, grand sire of the In
dependent Order of Odd Fellows and head
of the sovereign grand lodge of the world
arrived in Tacoma last evening. AT the
depot he was met by a delegation of Odd
Fellows, who escorted him to his carriage
and up Pacific avenue. In the procession,
which was headed by the Lyceum band,
were a dozen or more carriages, and fol-
lowing there were fully 300 Odd Fellows.
The line of march ended at the Masonic
hall, on st. Helens avenue, where the
Rebekahs were gathered to meet the hon
cred guest The hall was filled and it is
doubtful whether the grand sire was ever
given more cordial and fraternal recep-
ton. Following a speech of welcome de
livered by Mrs. Anna II. Lueders, Grand
Sire Goodwin responded with appropriate
remarks.
