There to support James was the Deputy Provincial Grand Master W. Bro Andrew J. Brown, both members of Eland lodge of M.M.M. No.493.
W.Bro. Martin Grace W.C.N. and his officers yet again conducted a wonderful Elevation ceremony. W. Bro’s David Leach and Ivor Emo did a fantastic job delivering the Secrets, Working tools etc.
Martin and his officers will not have to wait too long to conduct another Elevation ceremony as there was a proposal for Bro’s Jamie Conner and Adam Milner again both of Eland Mark Lodge. Great news for Caldene and the order in general.
It was time to ‘splice the mainbrace’ to welcome James into Caldene and the Order. Andrew congratulated both Martin on a fine ceremony and James on becoming a member of Caldene a fine old Lodge.
The new Cabin boy James thanked both Martin and his officers for a great ceremony. He was looking forward to seeing the elevation ceremony at the next Lodge meeting and was looking forward to visiting the Old York Lodge of RAM T.I. with other members of Caldene. James was also presented with a Provincial RAM tie from Bro. Craig Oates.
A jolly time was had by all and, with bellies full, it was time raise the anchor and set sail for home.
Until the next merry meeting
With thanks to
W. Bro John M. Fitzpatrick
