It is also said that at another time His Honor left the bench, lit his pipe and went out of. the roooa for a smoke while the same gentleman was speaking. The Observer, always very con IT'S TRUE. servative, goes on to state that such This arrangement leaves the Masons a story is improbable and cannot be Practically in control, as before the true, v incorporation. .'
