Odd Fellows hall, Manchester, was 
packed to capacity last Friday eve- 
ning for the joint installation of Mag- 
nolia lodge, 149, and Liberty Rebekah 
lodge, 78, I. O. O. F. It was red let- 
ter night in the history of both orders 
and one long to be remembered by 
the members of the two orders. 
From 6.30 to 7.30 a turkey supper 
was served in the Town hall, about 
160 sitting down to the bounteously 
laden tables. Long’s orchestra furn- 
ished music during the dinner and for 
the dancing which concluded the eve- 
ning’s entertainment. 
About 7.45 all adjourned to the 
icdge room above and the installation 
exercises were started. Miss Eva G. 
Batchelder of Danvers, with a full 
staff, installed the officers of the Re- 
bekahs in a most efficient manner, as

cording secretary; Mrs. Susan An- 
drews, financial secretary; Mrs. Em- 
ma E. Stanley, treasurer; Mrs. Alice

Rogers, I. s. v. g.; Mrs. Ethel Hoare,

Soulis, is recuperating from an oper- 
ation, and was not able to be present 
for installation. Mrs. Gertrude L. 
Prest is the retiring noble grand. On 
behalf of the lodge Mrs. Susan An- 
drews presented Mrs. Prest with a 
past noble grand’s jewel. 
Following the work, the chairs were 
turned over to the officers of Mag- 
nolia lodge, and they in turn vacated 
their chairs in favor of Jesse G. Kent 
and staff the installing officers. The

ers, 1. s. v. g.; Byron Bullock, inside 
guard; Ellery H. Rogers, outside 
guard. 
Following the work, the retiring 
noble grand stepped forward, and on 
behalf of the members presented Past 
grands Henry T. Bingham and Ed- 
ward A. Lane with veteran’s jewels, 
to which they had won the honor by 
having been members of the order 45 
years or more. Mr. Bingham has 
been financial secretary of Magnolia 
lodge for 35 years, and Mr. Lane its 
treasurer for 24 years. The latter 
retired this year. Mr. Bingham 
joined Essex lodge, in Salem, in 1867. 
and Mr. Lane joined Ocean lodge, 
Gloucester, in 1872. Mr. Prest said 
in making the presentation : 
“Noble Grand! I wish I had the 
gift to put into words all that my 
heart feels. To me, as to those who 
preceded me, the faithfulness and 
loyalty of our two oldest officers have 
been an inspiration and an incentive 
to gladly perform the duties which 
devolved upon the office of the Noble 
Grand. How well have these two 
exemplified the grand principles of 
Odd Fellowship ! 
“To have served 35 years with 
honor, in one position, reflects credit, 
not only upon him who has served so 
long, but upon the lodge, which in- 
sists that he retain this honorable po- 
sition of financial secretary. Past- 
Grand Bingham has a record ot 
which he may well be proud. He has 
always stood for that which was just. 
believing that in being fair to the 
lodge we would be fair to its individ- 
ual members. 
“To Past-Grand Lane this lodge 
cwes an everlasting debt of gratitude, 
and it was with regret that we learned 
of his devision not to continue in 
office. Having served faithfully and 
without compensation for 24 years as 
treasurer has told far better than 
words could tell his belief in our 
principles. 
“Our principle aim is the practice 
of Friendship, Love and Truth, and 
when we think of all that it means to 
possess the friendship of these two 
men we feel that theirs is a friend- 
ship based upon that of David and

lowman is that of the Good Sa‘ar- 
itan, and we all agree that their lives 
breathe the truth, for no man ever 
has or ever can question their in- 
tegrity. 
“And, Noble Grand, I am going to 
ask, through you, if your warden and 
conductor will present to me at your 
station, Past Grands Bingham and 
Lane.” After Mr. Bingham and Mr. 
Lane had been brought forward, Mr. 
Prest continued: “Bro. Bingham and 
Bro. Lane, for a long time it has 
been the wish of Magnolia Lodge to 
express to you in some manner the 
respect and esteem—yes, the love. we 
as a lodge have for you, and it is not 
only a pleasure, but I consider it an 
honor to present to you, on behalf of 
Magnolia lodge these veteran jewels 
and we trust that whenever or wher- 
ever you may wear them, that when- 
ever you think of them, they will 
signify not only 45 years and more as 
a member of this order, but that they 
will ever remind you that because of 
the life you have led you won the 
hearts of your brothers of Magnolia 
lodge.”
