Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Canada: At Its Sixth Annual Communication, Held at the City of London, C. W., July 10, A. L. 5861, A. D. 1861
The Annual Communication of Grand Lodge is to me, and I doubt not to us all, an event of much interest, not only because of matters appertaining to our order having accumulated since we met a year ago, and requiring consideration and adjustment, - but because a re-assembling together is peculiarly pleasing in a social and friendly point of view - while it should remind us of the rapid and ceaseless flight of time, and the necessity of preparing ourselves for the solemn final closing of our work on earth, it certainly has the effect, so long as the G. A. O. T. U. Is pleased to permit, of bringing friends and brethren face to face, and exchanging that kind of vigorous greeting, which makes the heart expand with gladness, and causes any coolness or differences, that may have occurred through absence or misunderstanding, to vanish under the mellow and sun-like warmth of the personal grip. As the sight of land to a seaman, after a long voyage, tacitly banishes every quarrel, and drives into oblivion every harsh word and unfriendly look, so ought the effect to be of our arrival, after a lengthy interval. In this our Grand Harbour of Freemasonry.
The steady progression, increasing importance, and high respect ability of the Craft in Canada, is a cause of congratulation, and let us hope and pray, that its usefulness and excellence may never be marred by blight from our hands. The Grand Lodge of Canada, I am proud to declare is, notwithstanding her comparative youth.
