FALLEN MASONS’ MEMORIAL
NINE THOUSAND AT DEDICATION. NEW ZEALAND NOT REPRESENTED. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, July 18. The Albert Hall was packed by 9000 Freemasons from all parts of the world for a special Grand Lodge to celebrate the dedication of the wonderful £1,000,000 memorial temple in honour of fallen brethren. The Duke of Connaught presided and those present included the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, Prince Arthur and Prince George, who was invested Senior Grand Warden. New Zealand was unable to be represented owing to the ill-health of Viscount Jellicoe and Sir Charles Fergusson. The Duke of Connaught was obviously affected when he declared that he was proud to see the consummation of the great scheme. The spirit of Freemasonry was never more needed than at present.
