Reception for Grand Master

The MasOns of Milford and vicinity
gathered in large numbers, Friday
night, May 18th, to receive their Grand
Master, Rev. George C. Williams, of
Wilmington, on the occasion of his
official visit to Temple Lodge, No. 8.
He was accompanied by Edward w.
CoOch, Grand Marshal. The ancient
ceremonial of reception of the head of
the order of the fraternity took place
in the lodge room and both grand
officers made addresses that were lis
tened to with much interest.
At the banquet in the Hotel Wind
sOr, Rev. H. L. Bunstein was toast
master, and before introducing the
speakers, spoke of the great strides
Masonry has made since the war in
this country and throughout the
world; especially in Europe, where
there are grand lodges in every coun-
try except Russia. Efforts are being
made to unite these in an Interna-
tiOnal Masonic Association; the first
steps toward which were taken last
October in Geneva, Switzerland, in
convention consisting of delegates
from many European nations and from
several American grand lOdges-nota-
bly, that of New York.
In responding to toast to his
health, Mr.. Williams spoke at length
of the benevolent activities of Mas
Onry and evoked great enthusiasm
thereby. Addresses followed by Mr..
COoch, Mr.. Jacobs, Alfred Raughley, of
Harrington; Mr. Dryden, Mr.. Murphy,
master of the lodge and Messrs. BGfce
and Russell, of the Royal Victoria
Lodge, Nassau, BeOhama Islands,
body under the jurisdiction of the
Grand Lodge of England and by P. G..
M. DR.. G. Layton, Grier who arrived as
the festivities were about to close.
While the addresses in the banquet
ing hall were for the most part in a
serious vein good cheer abounded. We
have never attended function more
so marked with hilarity
that was at times hilarious and yet so
suggestive of earning feeling, and
purpose. 1t was one o'clock when the
separated after singing
Auld Lang Syne.

Gift to Milford Neck

1t is the opinion of most people
that a well kept church or school
house, in a community, enhances the
value of real estate and makes that
community more desirable to live in.
Mrs. S. H. Lister, of Philadelphia, is
certainly no exception to the general
belief; for recently she has had the
Milford Neck Church repainted and
otherwise repaired at her own ex-
pense.
For several years she has contri-
buted very literally to the support of
this church, which speaks we'll for
her benevolent spirit. Last year she
gave to the trustees of the Milford
Neck Church a thousand dollar liber-
ty bond, the proceeds of which should
go toward the upkeep of the church.
Mrs. Lister owns several fine farms in
Milford Neck.
The ground on which the original
Milford Neck Church was built was
given by Col. Wood, a relative of Mrs.
Lister, who was instrumental in es-
tablishing the first church in this vi
cinity. To his memory, Mrs. Lister has
had erected a beautiful monument,
marking the spot where his remains
are supposed to lay.
The writer not only voices the SEN
timents of the Board of Trustees, but
the congregation as well, in express
ing thanks to Mrs. Lister, in apprecia-
tion of her benevolent gifts.
We note with pleasure the increas-
ed interest manifested in good attend
ance at the church services lately.
There were SO present at Sunday
school last Sunday. May this good at
tendance continue. The Rev. Taylor
preached a very appropriate Mothers
Day sermon last Sunday.
