MASONIC ORPHANAGE
AUCKLAND MAN’S GIFT.
(Special to ‘‘Star.”)
AUCKLAND, April 3.
Another gift has been made by Mr F. S. Potter, of Auckland, who last week presented an acre of land to Takapuna, for park purposes. Last year, Mr Potter handed over an area at Panmure to the Masonic Grand Lodge of New Zealand for the erection of Masonic homes, and he has now written to the executive of the Grand Lodge offering a property at Papakura, of 75 acres in extent, with a cottage, almost new, to be applied to the purposes of a Masonic orphanage. Mr Potter undertakes to convey this property to the Grand Lodge free of all encumberances, and to maintain it until such time as he is prepared to endow it. The Board of General Purposes has accepted the gift on behalf of the Craft, and has expressed high appreciation of Mi’ Potter’s generosity.
