PULASKI NOTES.

Prof. w. Turner, Grand Secretary |
of the G. U. o. o. F. of Tennessee,
has just returned from Chattanooga, |
where he was reelected to begin an
other term in the high Office which
he holds. Prof. Turner will have
served the Order in this position fif
teen years should he live out this
present term Prof. Turner was d.
rectly opposed by Prof. j. A. Henry,
of Chattanooga, who is Grand Master
of Masons, besides the influence of
several other prominent Odd Fellows,
whose sympathies were with Prof
Henry The Grand Secretary, Brother
Turner, easily defeated Prof Henry,
with plenty of votes to spare
so powerful was the Turner influence.
He did not only defeat Henry but
every one that openly opposed the
distinguished son of Giles. The popu-
lation seemed to carry everything
that got in it's way. The most promi-
nent of those that were caught in the
revolution were Prof Willie Sun
shine Thompson, the Endowment Sec
rotary, who would not have had an
appointment had not the Turnerites
believed he was lined up with the
Henry forces. Every opponent of
the distinguished Giles connection
settled his own defeat when he tried
to line up to defeat the Grand Secre-
tary, who was more influential than
his combined opposition SO powerful
|, was the Turner influence among the
brethren and together with their de-
e sire for right and position, they re-
fused to adopt the auditing commit
l tees report, which showed prejudice
and biasness toward the Grand Sec
rotary. The committees report was
rejected by a standing vote of 100 to
T. Even many friends of Prof. Henry
refused to sanction that bias report

holds were prominent in the Grand
Lodge at Chattanooga last week. N
