 RPRCIAL SESSION OF TIIK 
 
 PROCEEDINGS. 
 
 I 
 
 Orange Hall, St. John, N. B., 
 
 Oct. 13th, A. D. 1893. 
 
 Grand Oranfre Lodge of New Brunswick called to 
 order at 8 o'clock p. m., with the R. W. Grand Master 
 Geo. W. F^owler in the chair. 
 
 Companion J. E. N. Holder and Companion John 
 Mowbray were appointed inside and outside tylers by 
 the Grand Master. 
 
 In the absence of the Grand Lecturer and Grand 
 Director of Ceremonies, Companions P. E. Heine and 
 Rosborough were appointed by the Grand Master to 
 
 test the Lodge. 
 
 The test having been taken, the opening ceremonies 
 of the Royal Scarlet Chapter were duly observed, and 
 the Grand Lodge was declared opened in the Royal 
 
 Scarlet Degree. 
 
 Resolved, That the Lodge be reduced to the Orange 
 
 Degree. 
 
 The Lodge was then reduced to the Orange Degree. 
 
 A letter from R. W. Bro. W. H. Barton. Grand Sec- 
 retary, regretting his inability to be present on account 
 of ill health, was read. 
 
 Office OF Grand Secrbtary, L. O. A, 
 
 St. John, N. B., Oct. 13, 1893. 
 To the Right Worshipful Grand Master, Officers and Members 
 
 of the Grand Orange Lodge of New Brunswick. 
 Sir and Brethren :— 
 
 I deeply regret the circumstances by which I am prevented 
 from being present at the special meeting of Grand Lodge. 
 
GRAND ORANGE LODOB, 
 
 vlL 
 
 Highly as I pri/o the honorable position which I hold in our 
 bolovfid gociety, T Hnd that on account of failing health it 
 will '»o impossible for me to attend during the session. 
 
 The Deputy Grand Secretary has kindly promised to be on 
 hand and attend to the duties of the office. 
 
 I hope your session will be a harmonious and prosperous 
 one and may the Giver of all good abundantly bless your 
 d<^liberution8 to the advancement of the Order. 
 
 1 have t\ui honor to be, Dear Sir and Brethren, 
 
 Yours fraternally, 
 " W. H. Barton. 
 
 ,,/ 
 
 Resolved, That the letter be received and placed on 
 the minutes. 
 
 Resolved, That the proceedings of this Grand Lodge 
 meeting be not given to the public. 
 
 The Right Worshipful Grand Master explained the 
 object of the meeting. He said : "Some little anxiety 
 has no doubt been felt as to the object of this meeting. 
 It has been insinuated in certain directions that there 
 had been misappropriations of the funds for the Ba'.iurst 
 school inquiry. Now this present meeting has been 
 called to deal vv'th this matter. Since the R. W. Grand 
 Master and the R. W. Grand Treasurer constitute the 
 grand executive as to the matter of finances, such a 
 rumor bears a palpable absurdity upon its face. 
 
 In consequence of the action of the last session of 
 the Local Legislature in appointing a commission to 
 inquire into the Bathurst School matter and in accord- 
 ance with the action of the last Grand Lodge meeting, 
 it was absolutely necessary to have the services of coun- 
 sel in bringing action in behalf of oppressed Protestants 
 of Bathurst before the Supreme Court of New Bruns- 
 wick. W. Bro. Skinner had been engaged as senior 
 counsel, and it was thought better that the R. W. Grand 
 
VMl. 
 
 SPECIAL SKSSIO^ OP THE 
 
 Master should act as junior counsel. In these under- 
 takings a great dearth of funds had been experienced. 
 One hundred dollars was on hand at the time of last 
 session of Grand Lodge for this purpose. Two hun- 
 dred and ninety-one dollars had been received from the 
 Lodges, making three hundred and ninety-one dollars 
 in all. Of this sum^ two hundred and fifty had been 
 paid to the senior counsel and one hundred and fifty 
 to the junior cou.isel. The Grand Lodge of British 
 America had only voted $2,00 for our assistance in this 
 matter, notwithstanding that they had given $i,coo for 
 the Jesuit bill , fight and had sent $500 to help the 
 Ulster brethren. The disposition of the friends at 
 Bathurst is to leave the matter in the hands of the R. 
 W. Grand Lodge as to the course to be pursued. The 
 R. W. Grand Master stated in answer to questions that 
 it had been intimated that the Government and the 
 Catholic majority of Bathurst had suggested that in the 
 event that an agreeable settlement of the case could be 
 reached the Government would be very glad and would 
 pay all costs to date. Thie proposed basis of settlement 
 is virtually as follows : To have parallel grading of tho 
 public schooland Catholic convent school at Bathurst 
 up to grade five ; above that the children should attend 
 a common school ; for the management of these a 
 Protestant trustee should be appointed who must be 
 nominated by the Protestant minority and who snail 
 have control of the Protestant gradec up to No. 5, and 
 to act in conjunction with the Catholic trustees in the 
 management of the higher grades. The Protertant 
 trustee must' rot interfere with the Catholic grades. 
 Also, no catechism to be taught in school hours. 
 
GRAND ORAis^GB LODGE.

 Our expenses thus far have been $380 in connection 
 with the Royal Commission, and the probable cost of 
 carrying the c^«se to completion will be $2,000, in addi- 
 tion to the $200 yet to be received from the Grand 
 Lodge of British America. 
 
 W. Bro. C. N. Skinner spoke corroborating the in- 
 formation given by the Grand Master. 
 
 W. Pro. Rev. A. F. Thompson spoke at some length 
 throwing considerable light on the attitude of the 
 Protestants at Bathurst. His desire^ as well as that of 
 the brethren at Bathurst and Protestants, was that no 
 compromise should be entertained, but that the whole 
 matter should be tried out on its merits. 
 
 Resolved, That the R. W. Grand Treasurer be called 
 on for his report. 
 
 GRAND TREASURER'S REPORT. 
 
 (See Appendix D.) 
 
 On motion, Resolved, That the Rerpot of the Grand 
 Treasurer be accepted, together with the supplementary 
 report of the Grand Master to the effect that $100 had 
 been received from Bro. Wm. Rodgers and $75 from 
 York County for stenographic copy of evidence given 
 before the Royal Commission. 
 
 Moved by R. W. Bro. James Kelly and seconded by 
 R. W. Bro. W:^. Roxborough, that an extra assessment 
 of twenty-five cents per capita be made upon the Pri- 
 mary Lodges of the Province to defray the expenses 
 of the Bathurst School matter. 
 
 Moved as an amendment by W. Bro. H. A. McKecwn 
 and seconded by W. Bro. Alex. McLean, That a com- 
 mittee of five be appointed who, with the counsel en- 
 
3t. 
 
 SPECIAL SESSION OF TtiU 
 
 gaged in the case (Bro. R. W. Grand Master George W. 
 Fowler and W. Bro. C. N. Skinner), be a comniittee 
 from this Grand Lodge to take under advisement the 
 present condition of the Bathurst School question and 
 see what arrangements (if any) can be made with refer- 
 ence to the same, and, if satisfied with the validity of 
 the concessions made by the trustees, that this com- 
 mittee have full power to act in the whole matter." 
 
 Moved as an amendment to the amendment by W. 
 Bto. H. H. Pitts and seconded by W. Bro. P. £. Heine,. 
 That a committee of six be appointed, with the W*.* 
 Grand Master, to raise by subscription the money neces- 
 sar}'^ to carry on the legal contest for the public school 
 law in its entirety, and said committee have full power 
 to act until the next session of Grand Lodge and to 
 report to same. - qHa^?'^ 
 
 Original motion carried. 
 
 Moved by W. Bro. H. H. Pitts and seconded by W. 
 Bro. H. H. Staples, That a committee of six be ap- 
 pointed to act in conjunction with . the R.W.Grand 
 Master in connection with the further prosecution of the 
 Bathurst School matter. 
 
 Moved as an amendment by W. Bro. J. B. Morgan 
 and seconded by W. Bro. E. C. Stevens; That, a com- 
 mittee of one from each county be appointed to aid in 
 securing the desired funds from- the Lodges in- their 
 respective counties, using whatever methods they may 
 deem advisable to supplement the assessment. 
 
 Amendment carried. .. ! ' 
 
 Moved by R. W. Bro. Jas. Kelly and seconded by W. 
 Bro. Wm. Ro Igers and -^^Wiw/, That the County Mas- 
 ters of the d fcFent counties be that committee.

 On behalf of the officers and brethren of St. John Countv^j ^ 
 West we extend to you an earnest and hearty welcome. n ^ 
 
 We cannot fully express our great pleasure and pardonable ^-^^ 
 pride in having you hold your fifty-first (51) annual session ^\-.a 
 this enterprising and rapidly growing town of Fairville. -ry 
 
 Our little town may not present so many attractions as^^ 
 many of the larger cities and towns in which your annual ses^ j^ 
 sions have been held. We acknowledge it does not. But_|j|| 
 what we lack in this respect we hope to make up in ouruyg, 
 endeavor to make your visit a very pleasant and enjoyable one. q 
 
 You all know how much our town has suffered from that 
 
 i^d 
 
 terrible destroyer fire. Twice, within the past two years, that-^^^ 
 devouring element has laid in ruins the best part of our busy^^^ 
 and flourishing town. Beautiful and comfortable homes, fine ^^^ 
 large manufactures, costly churches, public halls and hotels -gi^^ 
 were, \.\ a few hours, reduced to ashes. jj,g 
 
 Yet, with that indomitable pluck, characteristic of the peo- 
 ple of New Brunswick, the men, yes, and women too, of 
 F.iirville took time by the forelock, and ere the ashes of the 
 burned buildings were yet cold, began the erection of new 
 buildings, so that, Phanix like, immediately from its own 
 ashes " came forth a new town," which we hope will continue 
 to grow and prosper greatly as the years come and go.

 RIGHT WORSHIPFUL GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS. 
 
 To the Right Worshipful Grand Lodge of the Province of Neiv 
 Brunswick. 
 
 Brethren : 
 
 Following the usual practice I have great pleasure in pre- 
 senting my third annual report as Grand Master of the Grand 
 Orange Lodge of New Brunswick. 
 
 When I learned that the large and comfortable hotel in 
 this place had been destroyed by fire I at first thought that I 
 would find it necessary to change the place of meeting in order 
 that the brethren might be properly accommodated, but upon 
 making inquiries I felt that there would be no ditiiculty in that 
 roK^i(>ct and knowing how anxious our St. John West friends 
 were to have us meet here I was glad that no change was re- 
 quired. 
 
 The past year has been one of great activity in Orange 
 circles throughout this Province and warrants have been 
 issued for the institution of ten now lodges as follows : — Three 
 in York Co., three in Carleton Co., two in Sunbury Co., one 
 in Westmoreland Co. and one in Albert Co. Nor is the good

 I the good 
 
 work likely to stop here as I know of several localities where 
 new lodges will be organized in the near future. 
 
 While the death rate for the yea.r has not been unusually 
 large we have lost some of our most earnest workers, of whom 
 tiie most prominent was Bro. W. H. Barton, our efficient 
 Grand Secretary. Tliough it was known for some time that 
 Bro. Barton was in failing health (he having been absent from 
 the special session in October last on account of illness) yet at 
 the last the news came with a sudden shock. Although not a 
 native of the Province, Bro. Barton had, during his residence 
 dere, made many warm friends both in and out of the Society 
 who have heard of his early death with deep regret. 
 
 During the last illness of the Grand Secretary, Bro. P. G. 
 M. Armstrong attended to his duties and after his death 
 kindly consented to fill the vacancy until after a successor has 
 been elected by this Right Worshipful body. 
 
 During the year I consulted by letter with many of the 
 brethren throughout the jurisdiction relative to the advisabili- 
 ty of employing an organizer, but owing to the j,reat variety 
 of opinions expressed and the difficulty of arranging for a 
 satisfactory mode of payment I was unable to see my way 
 clear to make arrangements for the purpose. I would, how- 
 ever, suggest to the Grand Lodge that the employment of a 
 competent person to organize new lodges and instruct the 
 brethren of isolated lodges would be an excellent thing for the 
 institution and would advise the appointment of a committee 
 to consider the matter. 
 
 I regretted very much that professional engagements pre- 
 vented my being present at the dedication of the New Orange 
 Hall at Bathurst, but I sent a substitute in the person of Bro. 
 Jas. M. Mclntyre, D. G. C, whose presence on that occasion, 
 I had the pleasure of learning, gave great satisfaction to the 
 brethren and friends at Bathurst. The Orangemen at Bath- 
 urst are to be congratulated on the pluck and enterprise they 
 have exhibited in building and equipping their beautiful and 
 commodious hall, and by so doing have set an example that 
 might well be followed by other populous places in which 
 Orangeism hau a strong foothold long before it was ever 
 dreamed of at Bathurst. I am also proud to announce that 
 Steeves Lodge, at Lutz Mountain, Westmoreland Co., have 
 erected and are now occupying a hall, clear of debt.

 served in various parts of the Province, the largest gatherings 
 being at Fiedericton and Sussex. These annual celebrations 
 do much for the Order by bringing the brethren of different 
 localities together and enabling them to know and appreciate 
 each other better. 
 
 The usual celebration of the oth of November was also duly 
 observed throughout the juiisdiction, in some places by a 
 lecture fo 'owed by a supper and dance, and in others by a 
 church pa.ade and sermon, according as the majority of the 
 brethren of the dirterent lodges inclined to be grave or gay, 
 but in each case whatever form the outward manifestation 
 took the hearts of the brethren were in the right place and 
 they celebrated according to their different pleasures the event 
 dear to the heart of ever}' true Orangeman and lover of liberty. 
 
 The correspondence this year lias been unusually heavy and 
 will be handed to the Committee on Correspondence. 
 
 I have not been called upon to decide any important appeals 
 during the year, but have granted a number of dispensations. 
 
 At the last annual session of the Grand Lodge the Grand 
 Master was instructed to take such proceedings as were deemed 
 necessary to endeavor to secure tlieir civil rights for our breth- 
 ren of Bathurst, which rights, it was claimed, were denied them 
 by the Catholic majority of that place, aided and abetted ' / 
 the Board of Education. 
 
 The first step taken was to circulate petitions throughout 
 the Province directed to the Legislature and praying that the 
 matter be investigated by the House of Assembly and proper 
 redress of the grievance granted. 
 
 These petitions were prepared in consultation with a num- 
 ber of the brethren, printed by Bro. Pitts at his printing office, 
 duly circulated for signatures and were signed by, I believe, 
 something about ten thousand poisons. 
 
 After a somewhat stormy doi)ate in the Legislature a Royal 
 Commission was issued to the Hon. Judge Fraser (our present 
 Governor) directing him to proceed to Bathurst and there 
 examine into all tlie many complaints which are commonly 
 known as the Bathurst School Question. 
 
 After consultation with some of the brethren I employed 
 brother the Hon. C. N. Skinner, Q. C, as senior counsel and 
 myself acted as junior counsel at tlie inquiry, and liaving 
 received from brother the Rev. A. F. Thompson a detailed 
 statement of the various matters of complaint, we put it in a

 put it in a

 copies required, proceeded to Bathurst on the opening of the 
 Qommission at that place. 
 
 His Honor Judge Fraser presided at the hearing, the Board 
 of Education being represented by the Hon. Solicitor General 
 White, the Trustees of Bathurst Town and Village by R. A. 
 Lriwlor, Esq., and N. Landry, E=<q., and the complainant by 
 Hon. Mr. Skinner and myself. 
 
 Briefly we charged in our complaint that the Roman Catho- 
 lic Bishop of Chatham entered into an agreement and under- 
 Standing with certain Catliolic members of said school districts 
 of Batlip.st Town and Village to bring the schools of said 
 districts under the control of the religious teaching orders of 
 his church, and under and by virtue of such agreement and 
 understanding conventional schools were established contrary 
 to law. 
 
 That the Board of Education had granted un<iuti privileges 
 to the said religious teaching orders of the Catholic Church 
 in allowing them to be licensed as teachers without attendance 
 at Normal School. 
 
 That Roman Catholic priests interfered with the schools in 
 said districts in their capacity as priests of the church. 
 
 That Roman Catholic holy days not school holidays were 
 observed in the schools. 
 
 That a certain report dealing with the schools of these 
 districts had been suppressed by the Board of Education. 
 
 That the Board of Education had unduly favored the Roman 
 Catholics in not acting upon complaints submitted by Protest- 
 ftnts. 
 
 That the grading of said schools was so conducted as to 
 make it necessary for Protestant children to attend the con- 
 ventual .schools. 
 
 That in consequonco of the foregoing the efficiency of the 
 Ichools had been greatly impaiied. 
 
 That the cost of running the schools had by these means 
 been greatly increased. 
 
 That the conventual schools had been established for the 
 henelit of the Roman Catholic church and to injure the 
 Protestant churches. 
 
 That a regulation of the Board of Education (No. 10) had 
 been matoj-ially altered in order to enable the trustees to 
 interfere with Protestant rights. 
 
18 
 
 PROCERDINOS OF THR 
 
 1 ll 
 
 That teachers had been rejected in Gloucester Co. because 
 they were Protestants and would not teach the Roman Catho- 
 lic catechism in the schools. 
 
 That illegal arrangements had been sanctioned by the Board 
 of Education which enabled the children of one district to be 
 taught in another district so as to receive religious instruction 
 during school hours. 
 
 That in certain schools Roman Catholic catechism had been 
 taught within school hours; Roman Catholic prayers had been 
 used ; Protestant children had been forced to kneel and cross 
 themselves ; a Protestant pupil had been expelled for refusing 
 to kneel. 
 
 That generally the school law had been violated and dis- 
 regarded in said school districts. 
 
 The hearing occupied sixteen days of ardous labor on the 
 part of judge and counsel, some sixty witnesses being examined 
 and an immense mass of evidence adduced filling some seven 
 volumes and containing in the whole over twelve hundred 
 pages of closely type-written matter, and as a result, in our 
 opinion, the various charges were amply proved. 
 
 The argument took place at Fredericton and lasted four 
 days, being taken part in by Hon. Mr. White for the Board 
 of Education, R. A. Lawlor, Esq., for trustees and Hon. Mr. 
 Skinner and myself for complainant. The commissioner took 
 time to consider and stated that he would report to the Board 
 of Education. Since that time Judge Eraser has been appoint- 
 ed Governor of the Province and it is not yet known to counsel 
 whether he has or has not reported upon the matter, though I 
 am of Opinion that the Board has received some intimation of 
 what his report is likely to be as they have since the argument 
 made two very important changes in the regulations along the 
 lines for which \fe contended, namely : The prohibition of the 
 use of any but the Lo: "s prayer* in the schools and the fixing 
 of the school hours and prohibition of any use of religious 
 catechism between those hours, wliich, if no other gain were 
 made by this enquiry, must be regarded as a distinct victory 
 for us. 
 
 After the close of the enquiry, counsel, upon consultation, 
 decided to bring the matter before the courts as well, and the 
 case of ex -parte Johnson attacking the assessment in school 
 district No. 2 was taken up on certiorari and now stands with 
 leave to re-enter next term,

 Since the agitation in this matter first began there has been 
 from time to time talk of a basis of settlement of difficulty 
 being arrived at, and at the conclusion of the hearing Mr. 
 Skinner asked the friends at Bathurst if they cared to have a 
 lettlemont of the matter provided terms satisfactory to them 
 could be arranged for, and they told him that such was their 
 Idesire. The matter was further and at length discussed at 
 the special meeting of the Grand Lodge called to consider the 
 whole matter, but the proposed settlement was rejected. 
 
 During the month of October last, with a view to obtaining 
 a settlement, the Protestant people of Bathurst appointed a 
 committee of five persons composed of Revs. A. F. Thompson 
 and J. Sellars and Messrs. Dr. W. P. Bishop, W. R. Johnson 
 and Y, illiam Rogers. 
 
 These gentlemen drew up a basis of settlement consisting of 
 eight propositions and handed the same to Hon. Mr. Skinner 
 who submitted them to the other side through their counsel, 
 Mr. Lawlor, but no agreement was reached. Afterward a 
 meeting of representatives of both parties met at Bathurst 
 with the counsel on both sides but no agreement was had. 
 Then the counsel met and formulated another basis of settle- 
 ment taking the first proposition as a ground work and inter- 
 viewed certain members of the Board of Education to know 
 if the terms would be agr«ed to by the Board provided they 
 were accepted by both parties, and the members so consulted 
 agreed that no objection would be offered by the Board pro- 
 vided l)oth parties would agree to accept the same. 
 
 The following is an outline of the proposed basis of settle- 
 ment : — 
 
 The agreement to be in writing and to be signed by the 
 counsel representing both interests. 
 
 One Protestant Trustee to be elected to the Board. Such 
 trustee to be approved of by a majority of the Protestant 
 rate-payers present at the school meeting at which such trustee 
 is elected. 
 
 That out of the general school fund fixed charges, such as 
 interest, principal accruing due, insurance and sinking fund 
 (if any) bo first paid and a sum equal to the balance of the 
 rates paid in by the Protestant rate-payers added to the pro- 
 portion of the county school fund earned by the proportionate 
 attendance of the Protestant pupils in the primary and inter- 
 mediate departments of the public school building, together 
 
20

 with tlio allowance out of tho county school fund to tnachnrs, 
 shall 1)R oxpnnrlcd in tho njaintuinancn of tho schools in the 
 public school l)uildin{T. 
 
 No charge to bo nmdo for tho use of tho convent school 
 buildings. 
 
 Tho schools in tho two rooms of the primary and inter- 
 modiato d(^partnionts of tho public school building to bo under 
 tho control of the Protestant Trustee and all grades or depart- 
 ments aV)ove the intermediate to be managed by the whole 
 Board. 
 
 The basis of this agreement is that tho Protestants and 
 Catholic Trustees shall severally control in their respective 
 departments as al)ove outlined, and in case of a difFenince of 
 opinion occuriing the Chief Superintendent of Education is 
 hereby accepted as an arbitrator between them. 
 
 It will easily be perceived that by this plan no part of the 
 money paid by Protestants will go to the support of the con- 
 ventual schools and the majority will be called upon to give 
 up their inherent right to elect the whole Board of Trustees, 
 and the majority of tlie Board will concede their right to 
 control all the schools in the district. These are the salient 
 features of the plan which would commend themselves to the 
 Protestant people, but this is also true that it is in a certain 
 sense a departure from the act. In defense of that, however, 
 it might be urged that the existing arrangement in other parts 
 of the Province, such as St. John, Fredericton, Chatham and 
 other places are also still greater departures from the act. 
 
 Now as there appears to be a misapprehension in some 
 quarters respecting the conduct of the Protestant counsel in 
 this matter, and as some of the good brethren have expressed 
 themsehes as opposed to our course I may bo pardoned for 
 introducing a few words of explanation. 
 
 When we came to consider the whole question after tho 
 evidence was ;:11 in and the argument concluded we asked 
 ourselves wliat were the results. 
 
 If the commi.ssioner icports adversely nothing will be im- 
 mediately gained by the en(|uiry except the production of the 
 evidence to the country and the preparation of a ground work 
 for a religious war such as agitated the country at the passing 
 of the act in 1871. If, on the other hand, the report is in our 
 favor it means the disruption of the existing state of things in 
 these places where now everything is going on harmoniously,

 a condition which we were assured would b«! dtsprecuted by 
 !nany who were strong syuipatliiaera with the brethren and 
 friends in Uathurst. We therefore f^ilt that we would be 
 doing no more and no less than our duty if we were to endf^avor 
 to formulate 80u«e basis of settlement which would l^e mutually 
 satisfactory to l)Oth parties, and that is the sole reason why 
 we entered upon that course. We have never urged our 
 friends in Bathurst to make any settlement because we felt 
 that was outside our province, but simply asked them to meet 
 representatives from the other side to talk over the matters in 
 dispute and see if a via media might not be found. The 
 (juostion has not in any way been prejudiced by any attempts 
 which have been made at a settlement but remains precisely 
 as if such steps had not been taken, so that to put it mildly 
 1 do not think the occasion calls for the strictures which have 
 in some quarters been passnd upon the conduct of counsel. 
 In any great (juestion like this there is bound to be a ditlerence 
 of opinion an)ong those who are honestly working for the 
 8a<ne end, and it is Millnitely better to recognise that and try 
 to bring a brother around to ycur way of thinking rather than 
 to violently denounce him because he cannot see eye to eye 
 with yourself, or because the course which seems to him tlie 
 proper one to pursue does not comniend itself to your judgment. 
 I have no doul)t that we all feel alike over this (|uestion, and 
 I feel assured that if we stand together and tight shoulder to 
 shoulder and do not allow ourselves and our energies to be 
 divided by bickerings and divisions that a satisfactory con- 
 clusion will eventually be reached. 
 
 At the last session of the Grand Lodge of British America 
 in answer to an appeal forwarded by me and suppoited by 
 IJros. P. G. M. Armstniiig and D. G. M. Kelly, the sum ot 
 two hundred dollars \v m voted towaid the Hathurst school 
 fund, but though theic has been a considerable amount of 
 correspondence in the matter, for some hitherto unexplained 
 reason, the treasurer his not yet secured the amount. 
 
 I have had the pleasure of visiting a number of the Lodges 
 dnring the year, thoug'. not so many as I could wish. 
 
 I wish to call especi.d attention to the very excellent work 
 performed by Graham \j. O. L., of Fredericton, of which Lodge 
 Bro. H. G. C. Wetmore is the beloved Master. As a token 
 of the high esteem in which Bro. Wetmore is held by his 
 Lodge, they presented him with an address and a beautiful

 to its liiemhership. ^^ 
 
 And now, brethren, in conclusion, and in retiring from this 
 high office which I have held for the past three years, I wiali 
 to tnank you all for the trust and confidence you have reposfl rca 
 in me, and to say to you how highly I appreciate the uniforiu|| 
 courtesy and kindness I have ever experienced at your hands ^ 
 and to bespeak a continuance of the same for ray successor. * 
 
 We do not all see alike, and I have no doubt but that I 
 have, in the course of the past three years often made mis- 
 takes, but I claim this one thing, that the best interests of the 
 Order have always been my aim, and no matter what position 
 I may hereafter occupy I shall continue to do what I can 
 toward increasing the prosperity and extending the usefulness 
 of our beloved Institution.

 GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT. 
 
 St. John, N. B., Feb. 20th, 1894. 
 
 To the Riijht Worship/id Grand Master and Members of the 
 Grand Oranye Lodge of New Brunswick, 
 
 Sill AND BUKTIIHBN : — 
 
 For thb last few weeks I have been acting Grand Secretary 
 in consequence of the death of our much ."espected Brother 
 Barton, who was elected to this office on'y one year ago. 
 
 Bro. Barton attended to the duties of his office up to within 
 a short time of his death, which occurred on the 8th of this 
 present month. Considering the short time I have been acting 
 in this position, Grand Lodge I am sure will not expect a 
 report of much length. 
 
 I have only to say that I found Bro. Barton's books kept 
 well and balanced up to the very day he allowed me to act 
 for him. 
 
 The number of returns fron: Primary Lodges are larger than 
 usual at this date, and the membership has increased since last 
 year considerably. 
 
 New warrants have been issued during the year to ten 
 Lodges, all having a larger number of applicants than usual. 
 One warrant is all I know of having been returned to Grand 
 Lodge, and cornea from f^ueen County, No. 14G. 
 
 Returns and corresp mdenco will be placed before Grand 
 Lodge-, from whicli the coinnnttee on corrt^spondence will be 
 able to report the genera! standing of our Order to Grand Lodge. 
 
 From personal knoN\ ledge I can report our Order in !,he 
 different communities w here it is situated to be strong and 
 healthy and gaining gi' ;md every year. 
 
 Annexed will be fouiic'i a financial statement of the Grand 
 Secretary's office, for tln^ year just ended, balanced up to date. 
 
 With a hope that tliij session may be productive of much 
 good to our Order,

 ?VICK, 
 
 I have to report from York County that the work has been 
 
 prospering in a most satisfactory manner. 
 
 I report in con Warrants have been received from three new Lodges, and 
 
 a long dormant lodge recusitated. The membership and in- 
 
 in the past t{t€»rest has been steadily increasing and all the Lodge meetings 
 
 are well attended, 
 feel bound tc With reference to the so-called Bathurst school question, 
 ^e three Lodgof^feich is rather a misnomer, as it is the Public Schools ques- 
 tion, the County Lodge is a unit in disapproving any settlement 
 be dormant, ;i' or compounding of tho question. It understands that when 
 o. 28 has not the Grand Lodge indentiHed itself with the question it was to 
 will make i?- p*8s for a thorough enforcement of the law, not only in 
 ne. Bathurst, but in Fredericton, Moncton, St. John or wherever 
 
 e deenied it in vhe non-sectarian principles of the law are being violated. 
 . 99 and makf A unanimous vote was passed by the County Lodge in 
 rant to Grand opposition to any form of settlement other than the school law 
 ai originally adopted.

 which it exists, that it will prosper and he a pover, not onl

 •The new Lodges at Hartland, Bristol and Holmsvillo start

 pport that tlio Most of the Lodges in Carleton County are doing a fairly 
 
 session of tlit'jood work, and it may not bo necessary to predict that the 
 
 mtlook for our noble and honored Association is bright, and 
 
 lojpes are entertained that soon we may have as many raem-

 boen done by the brethren during the past year in adding the p 
 our membership and also in endeavoring to place the prii A^

 at large, showing that Orangeism is not a dead thing of tlind t

 Grand Orange Lodge of New Brunswick. 
 Respected Sir and Brethren : — 
 
 It is with great pleasure that I present my first annua 
 report concerning our Association in St. John County. 
 
 There are twelve Lodges in the county which, with ont 
 exception (No. 75, St. Margins), are in a prosperous condition 
 No. 75 has made no returns to the County Lodge for two years 
 
 Mes

 .E 
 
 s and appca Ifhere has been a most satisfactory increase in the member- 
 ihijD during the past year. 
 The financial standing of the Lodges is excellent. 
 IONS AVT^ *^^^ Scarlet Chapter is in better standing than it has been 
 :or years, fifteei members having been raised to that noble 
 [yOmpanionship last year. 
 ^^ ^ g IThe excursion to Sussex, July 12th last, under the auspices 
 
 ry 2l8t 1894 ^^' John District Tiodge, was a grand success in every per- 
 ' ' bioQlar, as was also the excursion to Fredericton under Lodge 
 ra and i/emSeUo. Ul. This should be encouraging to the orangemen of St. 
 8tmck, John, as it is no mean undertaking to load trains with the 
 
 ' '-■ brotherhood and their friends both east and west on the same 
 
 11 petitions i ^^^ besides the number that went up river to Williams' 
 Lodge betr le v^'^'^^"8» ^^^ ^^ * further proof that we have the full 
 JO hkrmonioull"yb**^y °^ *^^ Protestant community. 
 
 business of s- •jH^-rmony Lodge, at Loch Lomond, occupies a very neat new 
 o such cases ^* ®^ their own and is a most flourishing branch of our Order. 
 Golden drove Lodge erected an addition to their hall, and 
 what is better, the addition to membership is regularly in- 
 Atkinson creasing. 
 
 Rogers ' Lodge No. 141 is again in its own hall, no doubt you are 
 
 ELANFY ' aware. This hall was burned in January, 1893, but 
 
 iRT Maxwfi through the untiring efforts on the part of its energetic master 
 
 R0XBOK017 ****^ officers has again taken % very materialistic form, and is 
 
 ri . ■ one of the finest Lodges in the province or in the Dominion. 
 
 ' All the other Lodges are doing well, and I trust they will 
 Qnded by Brc continue in the good work of our noble Order. 
 
 The Society has lost several of its members during the past 
 
 year by death, among which I will refer to Bro. Geo. M. 
 
 Thompson and William Bustard, of L. O. L., No. 24., Albert 
 
 OF ST. JOH^ W. Fowler and Beverly Beaman, of L. O. L., No. 141. 
 
 E N B Eldon Lodge, No. 2, i^ deprived of one of its most active 
 
 v' 21st 1891 Members, in the person of Bro. Wm. H. Barton. 
 
 By the death of these; members the Society loses some of its 
 Members of tl, most energetic young in )n. More especially will the loss of 
 Messrs. Tiiompson and Barton be felt by us as they were 
 always active m°niber.s. 
 rj . Trusting that the Grind Lodge may continue in the upward 
 
 Pou t ' " ^^^ onward path of prosperity, I remain 
 
 hich with oik Yours in Union, Love and Truth, '

 R. W. Sib and Brethren: — 
 
 Your Committee on Correspondence beg leave to submit th 
 following report : 
 
 That we have examined the correspondence of the Granc 
 Secretary and find that it mainly consists of routine work and 
 contains nothing of special mention. W 
 
 In examining the Grand Master's correspondence we find it ^ 
 very voluminous. It largely consists of letters in reference tc 
 the New Brunswick School question. ""^ 
 
 As all the subjects dealt with therein will be brought up 
 and discussed under other reports we deemed it a useless repe J^ 
 tition to mention them. 
 
 We have received the reports of the County Masters of 
 Westmorland, Sunbury, Kings East, Charlotte. Queei. West, 
 York, Carleton, St. John West, and St. John. 
 
 They showed that the Order is exceedingly prosperous 
 throughout the jurisdiction of this province.

 manner in which he discharged the duties of Grand Secretary

 Whereas, this Grand Lodge, both at its sessions at St. 
 Stephen and Fredericton, expressed itself most emphatically 
 that the executive of tliis Grand Lodge be anthorized to take 
 such legal proceedings as to bring the so called Bathurst 
 School question before the courts of the country, and 
 
 Whereas, in <he opinion of this Grand Lodge it is desirable 
 that the Grand Lodge in session should demand and be satis- 
 fied with nothing less than the entire wiping away of all con- 
 cessions to the Roman Catholic Church, both at Fredericton, 
 Moncton, St. John and elsewhere, a" well as in the special

 To the Right Worshipful Grand Master, Officers and yf embers 
 
 of the Grand Orange Lodge of New Brunswick. 
 Right WoRSHiPFur SiK AND Brethren: — 
 
 We your committee appointed to consider the claim of the 
 District Lodge of St. John upon this Right Worshipful 
 Grand Lodge for the sum of $100 (balance of money advanced 
 by the said District Lodge to the committee appointed to 
 entertain the members of the Grand Lodge of British America, 
 that met in St. John, May, 1890), befe to report that we have 
 attended to that duty and find from the statements made by 
 the various members whom we have interviewed in reference 
 to this matter, that this Grand Lodge did not borrow, nor 
 authorize the borrowing of any sum of money from the said 
 District Lodge, and that this Grand Lodge has already paid 
 $250 to St. John County, and $50 to York County, toward 
 defraying the expenses incurred in entertaining the members

 Report of the County Master of Albert County was

 by section the 5th section and part of the 9th section

 REPORT OF THE COUNTY MASTER OF ALBERT. 
 
 Orange Hall, Fairville, N. B., 
 
 February 21st, 1894. 
 
 To the Riyht Worshipful Grand Master and Members of the 
 Grand Orange Lodge of Neiv Brnnstvick. 
 
 Dear Sir and Brethren : — 
 
 Owing to the absence of our Past County Master, it de- 
 volves upon me to present an address regarding the standing 
 of our Order in the county of Albert. 
 
 I am pleased to state, from what I have been able to learn 
 since my appointment as County Master, and from past know- 
 ledge of the Order in Albert County, that the prospects for 
 the present year look brighter than they have for several years 
 past, both in reviving the lagging energies of our brethren and 
 in adding to our ranks new and zealous workers. 
 
 We now have six lodges in good standing, and there is a 
 strong desire on the part of friends of Albert Corner and 
 Turtle Creek to organize Lodges at those places. I hope to be 
 able to report eight or nine Lodges at the next session of this 
 R. W. Grand Lodge, which, according to Grand Lodge report 
 f 1893. will place us in the rank of fiftii county in number of 
 odges instead of six as now held by us. 
 
(JKANb 0UAN(;E LODfJE.

 I regret to say that our Primary Lodges have not sent in 
 full returns to County Lodge, owing, in a great measure, I 
 believe, to negligence on the part of past county officers, which 
 excuse I will try, during my present term of office, to have 
 removed. 
 
 * * ... ..'*" ... /. * # ♦ 
 
 I am only cognizant of the death of one member during the 
 past year, our lamented Brother Allan Beck, a very old and 
 respected honorary member of Star of Hope L. 0. L., No. 140, 
 who was accorded the last rites of the Order. 
 
 I have notified all Primary Lodges in my jurisdiction of the 
 special assessment of twenty-five cents per capital for costs in 
 the Bathurst school question investigation. Star of Hope, No. 
 140, is the only Lodge as yet that has handed the said assess- 
 ment to the County Secretary, which amount has been for- 
 warded to the Grand Secretary w'^h the County Lodge report. 
 
 I am pleased to be able to report our Scarlet Chapter is 
 working in a very satisfactory manner. 
 
 * * * Trusting that this session of Grand Lodge will 
 be productive of much good, and that all may work heartily 
 for the advancement of our beloved Order, 
 
 lam, yours in U.. L. and T., -^^
