Help For A Mason's Family.

HELP FOR A MASON'S FAMILY .

On the 8 th October last , the steamer Scandena * commanded by Bro . Capt . Upton , sailed from New York for a port in Wales , but , like many other noble ships , she has never since been heard of . The story is a sad one , and appeals directly to the hearts of everv right-minded man . Bro .

Upton has left a young widow and two fatherless children , to whom the loss of the bread-winner has proved a loss indeed . With the view of raising money to help our deceased brother ' s widow and family , a Concert of miscellaneous music was given at Bro . Molyneux ' s Assembly

Rooms , Bootle , near Liverpool , on the evening ofthe i Sth inst . While the general public took a warm interest in the scheme , several brethren of the Prince of Wales Lodge , No . 1035 , of which Bro . Upton was a member , took an active part in organising and carrying it out . Bro . Turley , P . M

1035 , especially deserves credit for the zeal he displayed , and he was admirably assisted by Bros . Capt . Tobias , G . Morgan , P . M ., T . Fozzard , P . M ., S . Ibbs , P . P . G . S . B ., and Bro . Capt . Mott , P . G . S . W ., Cumberland and Westmorland . As the spacious and elegantly appointed hall was

crowded to its utmost capacity , there is good reason to expect that about £ 60 will be realised from the concert , and this sum , along with ,= £ 10 voted by the members of 1035 , will probabl y be ultimately increased to ^ 100 from other sources . An excellent programme was furnished for the

occasion , and it is due to the artistes engaged to state that all who appeared during the evening gave their services gratuitously . The singers were Miss T . Clensy , Miss Brown , Miss Newall , Miss Webster , Miss H . Webster , Miss H . Lowthian , Mr . Francis , Mr . Hobart , Air . J . G . Clensy ,

and Mr . R . Peake . The efforts ol the soloists were greatly appreciated , and more than one encore was given . Dr . Churchill also gave a reading between the JJparts , and the Highfield Alusical Society , under the conductorate of Air . Carmichael

( which has only been in existence six weeks ) , sang several pieces in a highly creditable and intelligent manner . Bro . J . L . Parry fulfilled the duties of accompanyist and director in a highly satisfactory style .
