the annual election of officers a goodly number being present After the regular order of business the election was held and the names of the Companions chosen are published elsewhere in this paper At the close of the installation Companion Horace Jeffries stated that he had a little personal matter to bring before the Chapter and that he would ask Companion James Garnett to retire for a short time He then took up Companion Garnetts Masonic correer reciting his advance ¬ ment in the Blue Lodge and the Chap ¬ ter eventually becoming the Grand Master of all the Masons in the State of Kentucky He spoke of Bro Gar ¬ netts untiring energy and his fidelity to the cause of Masonry and his devo ¬ tion to both the local Lodge and local Chapter and he felt that as a token of brothorly love and the high esteem in which the Chapter held him as a man and as a Mason that a manifestation of such feelings should be brought out in a tangible way He then spoke of an idea advanced and made known by Companion R F Paul to several of the members a few weeks agoto pre- sent Companion Garnett with a hand ¬ some solid gold thirtytwo degree watch harm Bro Garnett having reached that distinction in Masonry The suggestion met the hearty ap proval of every Companion present each member expressing his approval in the most earnest and complimentary termsCompanion Garnett was introduced and conducted in front of the altar by Companions Myers and Lewis He was fronted by Companion Horace Jeffries who in a well worded and touching speech presented the charm Companion Garnett was taken wholly by surprise and for a few minutes he could scarcely speak his heart over ¬ flowing with love for the token of friendship manifested by the Compan ¬ ions as he said who had so faithfully stood by him while building his Masonic carree His speech throughout was touching but when he said holding the thirtytwo degree charm in one hand so 1OxtgL live I will wear it dividing time with this one holding up a Knights Templar charm given tome by my sainted mother for the love she had for me the pride she took in my advance ment and the high respect she had for the Masonic Fraternity brought tears to the eyes of a number of the Com- panions When the Chapter dispursed it was the universal expression that the meet would result in much good for Masonry Peacock Colts Will V Leave for Missouri It is known to quite a number oif t r Adair county people that Mr U S Haynes of Clarksdale Mo purchased a bunch of peacock colts from yarious parties in the county during our Fair at 125 to 150 each to be received later Mr WL Grady is in recipt of a letter from Mr Haynes stating that he will be in Columbia October 1st to receive the colts Parties from whom he purchased are therefore notified to be here

He then took up Companion GarnettsMasonic correer reciting his advance ¬

ment in the Blue Lodge and the Chap ¬

ter eventually becoming the GrandMaster of all the Masons in the Stateof Kentucky He spoke of Bro Gar ¬

netts untiring energy and his fidelityto the cause of Masonry and his devo¬

tion to both the local Lodge and localChapter and he felt that as a token ofbrothorly love and the high esteem inwhich the Chapter held him as a manand as a Mason that a manifestationof such feelings should be brought outin a tangible way He then spoke ofan idea advanced and made known byCompanion R F Paul to several ofthe members a few weeks agoto pre-sent Companion Garnett with a hand ¬

some solid gold thirtytwo degreewatch harm Bro Garnett havingreached that distinction in Masonry

The suggestion met the hearty approval of every Companion presenteach member expressing his approvalin the most earnest and complimentary

termsCompanionGarnett was introduced

and conducted in front of the altarby Companions Myers and Lewis Hewas fronted by Companion HoraceJeffries who in a well worded andtouching speech presented the charm

Companion Garnett was taken whollyby surprise and for a few minutes hecould scarcely speak his heart over ¬

flowing with love for the token offriendship manifested by the Compan ¬

ions as he said who had so faithfullystood by him while building his Masoniccarree His speech throughout wastouching but when he said holding thethirtytwo degree charm in one handso 1OxtgL live I will wear it dividingtime with this one holding up a KnightsTemplar charm given tome by mysainted mother for the love she had forme the pride she took in my advancement and the high respect she had forthe Masonic Fraternity brought tearsto the eyes of a number of the Com-

panionsWhen the Chapter dispursed it was
