Provincial Grand Master’s visit to Sword of Constantine Court
On Tuesday, 11th October 2022, Provincial Grand Master RW Bro Lionel Mee accompanied by his Deputy, VW Bro Mark Donovan and nine other members of the current Provincial Team visited the Annual Installation Meeting of the Sword of Constantine Court No 120 at Croydon Masonic Hall. They were warmly welcomed by the acting Worshipful Master, W Bro Terry Carpenter, who was deputising for Worshipful Master W Bro Glyn Harvey who is currently unwell.

The brethren were called to order and stood in silent memory of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Master-elect W Bro George Rodger was installed into the Chair of King Athelstan by W Bro Leslie Grout, visiting Provincial Senior Grand Warden, in an excellent manner and with great dignity, and the new Master was greeted with acclaim by the brethren present. He then appointed the Officers he has chosen to assist him for his year as Master and invested those who were present.

The Almoner, W Bro Andrew Sales, reported that W Bro Glyn Harvey the outgoing Master of the Court was still under medical supervision, and all the brethren wished him well for his recovery.

The next meeting of the Court will be on Monday, 6th March 2023 at Croydon, when it is hoped that a new member will be instructed into the Order.

Twenty two brethren late enjoyed a Curry supper and departed in peace and harmony at 8.30 after honouring the usual Toasts.
