Introduction

Macmurdo rose to his feet and said that if a man should be wanted, i should take it as an honour to be chosen to help the lodge. There was great applause at this. It was felt that a new sun was pushing its rim above the horizon. To some of the elders, it seemed that the progress was a little too rapid. Mac murdo's neighbour informed him, the funds are good at the moment. The firms have been generous of late. Max linder and company paid 500 to be left alone. Walker brothers sent in a hundred, but i took it on myself to return it and ask for five. I will make the announcement later.
