There was a good atteudance of tnembers and the proceedings throughout were most har moutons and pleasant. The President, J. Essery, opened the meeting by ehow- ing the large amount of business dune during the yenr and the small expense of management as compared with other companies of a similar size. He con- gratulated the compauy on this state of affairs and hoped this healthy condition would coutinue. The Secretary -Treas- urer's reports were submitted and ap- proved of. From these the following are taken net risks on hand 31st Dec. 1895:—Policies in force 2218, covering. risks to the amount of $3,518,516.00• Those risks are insured by premium notes, amounting to $105,162.75 being an increase of 71 polices and $85,185.00 at risk over previous years.

Every lodge hacl re- ceived a full report of the proceedings. I desire to say a word about the present un- happy agitation in Canada re Manitoba schools. It behoves every Orangemen to guard well his utterances at the present time, agitations may come and go, Parliaments may come and go, still the principles of our glorious institution must ever remain the same on the Manitoba school question,there is a very wide difference of opinions among the very best minds in Canada, we must not then be surprised when we find Orangemen divided in opinion. Such being the case we should be very cautious in our iieliberatlons and public utteranr•es. what ever we do, see tu it that the constitution is followed to the letter and harmony must prevail. I regret to say that the Orange Insurance department is not supported as liberallyas it deserves but I trust there will be a sub st:ntinl increase of insured tnembers. The session of this Loyal County Orange Lodge I trust, will be marked by continued har- mony and that your deliberations will re- bound to the future wellbeing of the grand and honored Orange Association and County of South Huron.

County Master's Address To the nfficers and members of the County Orange Lodge of South Huron. BRN THREN,--- I feel it a great pleasure and privilege to be permitted for the first time to deliver this my first annual address as County Master to the members of this large, in- telligent and prosperous County of South Huron. To -day our membership from a local as well as:national standpoint is greater than it.ever has been in the history cf the British Empire and South Huron has contributed her just proportions to the general pros pprity to our beloved institution. In the County, during nth,- my first year of office not only has prosperity marked the Orange Or der; peace and pten'y and almost universal harmony prevails. This speaks well for the principles of Orange principles that have with stood the test of adverse criticism for two centuries and to -day shines more brightiy than the new gold coin ofyesteritay, Other Societies innumerable have come into exist- ence, some have adopted what is claimed to be a more aggressive, and at the same time offensive, crusade against the Church of Rome, some have endeavored to bring suc• cess to their efforts through this noble in- stitution, and even make the unwarrantable assertion that the Loyal Orange .Institution is not accomplishing the end for which it wtis over two hundred years ago brought into existence, this, I desire to say is not warrante+t by facts, and I am sure every brother Orangemen present will agree with The Orange Institution is founded on the broadest principles of .British freedom and British liberty. We are bound not to prose- cute any man for his conscience sake, to maintain inviolate the constitution of the country the supremacy of Iaw,order and con stitutional freedom. In short, we disclaim an intotlerant spirit, and are bound to aid and defend all loyal subjects. of every re ligious persuasion in all constitutional rights. Just its long so, time lasts will the Orange lustitutions survive. Our foundations add principles are so liberal minded and bead that the institu. tion extends whercever a Protestant Briton is to be found. I had the pleasure of at tending the Grand Orange Lodge of British Ameri.•a at Halifax last summer alorg with `Past Masters Todd and Scarlett from this, County.
