The late John T. Raymond, the actor,
used to say that he'd gambled away
several acres of business blocks; not
that he ever owned any, but he might
have done SO had he not gambled, for
he lost, as every man who gampieS
does in the long run, am told. He
| would bet on anything from the time
of day to the complexion oftthe next
person to turn corner.
His inffrmity was well known in the
theatrical profession, and sometimes
advantage was taken Of itNto lay pre-
arranged wagers in whichl Raymond
must get-the worst Of 1t. A veteran
actor whom / met the other evening

west. It was the most notable Mason ic event in the history of the town. The air was fresh and balmy and the visitors enjoyed the ride to the beauti- full hilltop.
 Shortly after Il o'clock-W Worshipful Master Stephen FrenchM 0ppeared in front of the hall and invited all the guests to partake of refreshments in the banquet room on the first floor of the temple. Generous provision had been made and an excellent spread was sisting of sandwiches, coffee, pie, cake and ice cream.
 At about o'clock lodge was opened in due and ancient form. The grand lodge officers formed in the old lodge hall, and followed by the invited guests marched across the green to the new temple, where they were welcomed by Worshipful Master Stephen French, his associate officers and members of Washington lodge.
 THE IMPRESSIVE AND BEAUTIFUL MA
 SONIC DEDICATORY SERVICE was then performed by the officers of the most worshipful grand lodge, after which they retired to the ante-rOom. During the dedicatory ceremony a h4oAO duNA uOO AAoAA DllOSCpOlU OduR appropriate selections. Following the ceremony they sang several selections and were cheered to the echo. The grand officers later re-entered the lodge room and occupied seats in the East. The grand officers present were: M. w. George E. Parsons, NOrwlch Grand Master.

 Following the dedicatory ceremon there were interesting addresses by visiting brethren. Worshipful Maste French first called on John L. Boards ley, who did so much to keep the lodg alive in the discouraging days, to giv an historical, sketch of Washingto , lodge. MT Beardsley said: More than century ago, in the yea 179O, ;there chanced to be located i the vicinity of this little country hl top nine members of our fraternity. c I these nine six were from St Johns |.

the following report on the resolution: "Your committee appointed to dc wise some way in which to dispose { f the funds .Of the lodge in accordance with the honor and dignity of Masonry, having examined the records we find that the hand of charity has been eX- tended to all, with few exceptions, who have been unfortunate and in de- pressed circumstances, we would now under the authority of your appoint ment recommend that the funds afOre- said, after being collected and placed in the hands of the treasurer, be equal ly divided among the members who are not at that time indebted to the note, or fees on treasurer book and residing within the state; also if there be any member who is Indebted and unable to pay, the lodge may, on appli- cation beingsmade in his behalf, miti- gate said debt in part or the whole as they may in open lodge decide. Sub- mitted by your Committee" Later committee was appointed to look over the list of members to ascertain who should share in the division, and also to ascertain who were worthy objects of charity. Many donations are noted to distressed members, their widows and orphans.
 In the final division each member entitled to share received Ss. At this time there were 217 names on the roll. Just why the lodge took the course 1t did is difficult to say unless they acted under the supposition that Masonry had received it's death blow, for which idea there was perhaps much justifica- tion. We at this day have little con. ceDtiOn of the terrihlv bitter fee1inpS that were engendered by that Anti Masonic crusade. Families, neigh5or. hoods and churches were broken up. A Mason was looked upon as a scoun- drel and cutthroat, in fact but little better than a wild beast: Iwen re- member that when small boy I was told that such a one was one of the Masons my first impression was to run. In later years 1 found they were not nearly so dangerous as was led to think. But it seems that the brethren

 Among the blank leaves of the last record book is to be found the follow ing, written in pencil but easily de- cipherable, by some brother who evil dently entertained some decided Opin- ions in regard to distributing the funds and closing the lodge. This is what he writes: The institution, the records of which this book contains, and of which I am member, is to me still near and dear, and 'tis like robbing the apple of my eye that I part with anything thereunto belonging. The distribu- tion of the funds bespeaks the over- could never, never yield. It is like breaking up an ancient family. My heart feels sick at the thought. I bid this lodge farewell.

 It will never be known who or what this brother was, but if the majority of the members at that time had been possessed of spinal column of any thing like the consistency of this brother there would have been very different result to have been placed on record. Whatever may have been that brothers faults and >foibles land ot course he had them), since reading that I have entertained an unbounded admiration for his staying qualities.
