" That when the deformity of the candidate is not, in the opinion of the lodge, such as to prevent him from being instructed in the arts or mysteries of Freemasonry, or does not amount to an inability honestly to acquire the means of subsistence, the admission will, not be an infringement upon the ancient land-marks, but will be perfectly consistent with the spirit of our institution."
Which report was read and accepted.

Resolved, That the thanks of this Grand Lodge be tendered to the M. W. John T.

The proposition submitted at the last communication, and sent out to the lodges, providing that, hereafter each subordinate lodge shall pay annually, to the Grand Lodge, one-eighth of a dollar for each of its members; and that the sum arising from said one-eighth of a dollar be appropriated, in whole or in part, to the payment of the expense of one delegate from each lodge, who shall attend the annual communication of the Grand Lodge, was taken up; and on motion,
Voted, That the same be adopted.

Attest, C. B. SMITH, Rec. Grand Secretary.
Masons' Hall, Portland, May 19, 1847.

There were also present a respectable number of representatives and other brethren from several subordinate lodges.
In the absence of a Past Grand Master, the R. W. Charles B.

Alexander H. Putney as Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Maine, and conducted him to the oriental chair.

The Grand Master then proceeded to install in ample form, the several subordinate Grand Officers, those who were absent being installed by proxy. After which, the Grand Marshal made the usual proclamation, that the Grand Lodge of Maine was duly constituted and the Grand Officers installed for the current masonic year.
A report was then received from the Committee on Foreign Correspondence, in which they say:
That they acknowledge, in behalf of the Grand Lodge of Maine, with expressions of reciprocal friendship, the receipt of communications, within the past year, in the form of printed proceedings, from the sister Grand Lodges of New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Ohio, Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Arkansas and Louisiana.
The committee also acknowledge the receipt of circulars from several grand and subordinate lodges; and observe, that—
To narrate the contents, or even the most important parts of the contents of all these papers, would require a space that can hardly be eligible for a report of this kind.
They, however, proceed to discuss several topics, which appear to have been regarded as important by various other Grand Lodges, but upon which this Grand Lodge deem it inexpedient at this time to take any action.
In their closing remarks, the committee observe that—
On the whole, though the correspondence in possession of your committee shows that there are differences of opinion amongst masons, as being Free Masons they are free to differ in the spirit of lore and in the desire for truth; yet no where is heard any harsh sounds—no noise of axe, hammer or any tool of iron. All these differences are salutary in their bearings upon the common work in which we are all engaged. Masonry, purified by the past desertions of men who never estimated its beauties, or understood its principles, has arisen of late years, with unwonted zeal and vigor. Never was the Institution more prosperous than at this moment. There are thirty-one Grand Lodges now in the United States, with which are connected more than eighteen hundred subordinate lodges, besides Royal Arch Chapters, Encampments and other masonic organizations. These all should be, and we trust are, the sacred sanctuaries of charity—a charity that halts not to inquire whether a brother is of this nation or that, of one political party or another, of our religious communion or not, but is he a mason ? and if found to be such, in the day of his need, rushes to his assistance on the well known points of fellowship. That the principles of our order may teach us all to forget each other's errors, forgive each other's faults, and unite us all together by the cement of brotherly love and friendship, should be the prayer of every mason.
The report of the committee was read and accepted, and ordered to be placed on file; and the Grand Secretary requested
to make such extracts from it, for publication, as he may think proper, it being deemed inconvenient, at this time, to publish the report in detail.
The Grand Master then appointed the R. W. Bros. Cyril Pearl, Josiah Pierce and Freeman Bradford, a Committee on Foreign Correspondence for the current year.
On motion,
Voted, That Bros. C. B. Smith, John Purinton and George Small be a committee to procure such jewels and collars as may be necessary to complete the set for the several officers of the Grand Lodge.
The Grand Lodge was then closed in ample form. Attest, C. B. SMITH, Bee. G. Secretary!
