At twelve, noon, the two sister lodges of St. Thomas and St. Andrew met at the Ma- sonic Hotel, and after being marshalled into order, were joined by St. John of Jerusalem's encampment of Sir High Knight Templars.
All then proceeded to parade through the town and Ironworks to excellent music by the New- milns and Muirkirk Instrumental Brass Bands.
St. Thomas and St. Andrew's Lodges. — These lodges, after the procession, dined in Mr. Allan's Hotel, and passed an agreeable and harmonious evening.
...
St. John's op Jerusalem, No. 28. — This encampment, composed partly of masons of some forty and fifty years' standing, proceeded to Mr. Kay's, Black Bull Inn, where they had a most elegant and sumptuous repast. The cloth being removed, Mr. C. M'Donald, E.G., after, as is usual on such occasions, toasting the Queen and Royal Family, Army and Navy, &c., proceeded to give the toast of the evening, " The Memory of Burns." Having briefly re- ferred to a few of the leading events in Burns' life, he said — The fact of his songs being sung by all classes, being enjoyed by the peasant, and giving pleasure to the peer, enlivening the cottage, and driving gloom from the ancestral hall, being heard in the murky purlieus of our large cities, and in the broad forests of the " far west," were sufficient proofs of the high order of genius possessed by Burns.
