"In an attempt to maintain the Lodge history, where possible, we re-issue jewels which have been returned to the Lodge by the Brethren or their families. Only on a rare occasion would we purchase new jewels. Wor. Bro. W. Morrison who was Worshipful Master in 1943 returned his jewel shown here to the Lodge in the year 2000. The jewel was then re-issued in 2001 to Wor. Bro. P. McCallin, sadly Wor. Bro. Morrison passed away in 2004 aged 99 years. To maintain the history, the jewel remained in its original state with the engraving of the name of the original recipient on the reverse, and a bar was affixed to the front showing the details of the new recipient." |
