The bowman

The Bowman

by Hugh Chesterman


It’s jolly to play at Make-Believe
And think what you might have been:
An Anglo-Norman aristocrat
With his feudal this and his feudal that;
A stern Crusader, tough and tanned,
Jogging along to the Holy Land;
A Roundhead trooper, spick and span,
Yeoman, Knight or Javelin man.
But best of the bunch, as it seems to me,
The jolliest fellow of all was he
Who covered the whole of his six foot three
In a suit of Lincoln green.
Foemen knew the twang of his bow
And bowed them down at the patter
Of dropping arrows, designed to put
The fear of the Lord in Horse and Foot,
(You’ll hear them still wherever you look,
Hissing about in the history book).
But only the laughing bowmen knew
Just where they’d go and what they’d do
And often enough a Knight would find
A hole in his front—and one behind—
And the mess it made of his peace of mind
Was hardly a laughing matter.

Yesterday


Yesterday
by Hugh Chesterman


Where have you gone to, Yesterday,
And why did you have to go?
I've been wondering all the day,
And nobody seems to know.

Say, is it true that you've journeyed far,
Over the hills to Spain,
And no one to see which road you took
Nor call you back again?

A Rhyme Sheet of Other Lands


A Rhyme Sheet of Other Lands
by Hugh Chesterman


The Japanese have funny things
For dinner, so they say;
The tails of fish and dragon's wings
Are eaten every day.

Of all the men who search for gold,
Some find as much of it
As both their restless hands can hold,
And others ne'er a bit.

I think this picture here shall be
The famous river Nile
And, lying near the bank, you see
The curious crocodile.

The Greeks of old were wise and skilled,
What wonders they could do!
What towns and temples they could build,
And stately houses, too!

Now every child in China knows
The way to spell and write with speed;
From right to left the writing goes—
It must be very hard indeed!

I'd love to go to Switzerland,
Although the air is colder:
There's little doubt that it's a land
I'll go to when I'm older.

Saint Johns lodge New Brunswick

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA



A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE SAINT JOHN MASONIC TEMPLE

From the time that the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick was formed in 1867 the objective of erecting a Masonic edifice in the City of Saint John remained in the forefront. In 1869 a committee consisting of Robert Marshall and James McNichol Jr. were appointed to identify a suitable location to erect the new building.

The first location identified was the property belonging to the grammar school located at the corner of Horsfield and Germain Streets. Unable to reach a suitable agreement, negotiations were commenced with Mr. James Thomas to purchase property on Germain Street belonging to Mr. E. A. Wiggins at a cost of $8,000.00. As negotiations progressed it was discovered that the dimensions of the property that had been represented were incorrect and negotiations ceased. Finally in January of 1872 successful negotiations were completed to purchase two properties adjacent to Trinity Church at a cost of $18,000.00. The properties, which had an aggregate measurement of 100 feet by 200 feet, had belonged to the late Benjamin Smith.

The properties in question had originally been granted to Loyalists James Horsfield and Thomas Lester.

As the Board of General Purposes was simply acting on behalf of the fraternity, the property thus purchased was transferred to a company that had been incorporated by an act of legislature in which the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick and the city lodges were shareholders. The company was known as the New Brunswick Masonic Hall Company with John V. Ellis as President. The capital stock of the company was $100,000.00 divided into 5000 shares at a value of $20.00 each.

When the property was purchased nearly the whole area of the two lots was covered by a collection of wooden structures. The rentals from these properties paid the interest on the mortgage of $13,500.00 and helped to provide a sinking fund to meet the principal and other expenses.

Over the next several years efforts were made to pay down the mortgage and to build a fund that would be used to cover the cost of the erection of a building. This was to be achieved by the further sale of shares in the Masonic Hall Company and from the surplus revenues from the rental properties.

While these efforts were proceeding with satisfactory dispatch the great conflagration of June 20, 1877 would bring the Masonic fraternity in Saint John face to face with the harsh reality of once again being homeless. Of the many structures that were devoured by the fire one was Judge Ritchie’s building on Princess Street, which had been home to the Masonic fraternity for over twenty years. With the need for a new facility being of the utmost urgency George Ernest Fairweather, a member of Albion Lodge No. 1 and John T. McKean of St. John’s Lodge No. 2 were engaged as architects to draw up the plans for the new edifice. Alexander Christie and John Ferguson, both of the Union Lodge of Portland No. 10 were hired as the principal contractors.

By the summer of 1878 the work had sufficiently advanced that the directors were in a position to call upon the Grand Master to lay the corner stone on July 1st of that year. In accordance with the request, a special communication of Grand Lodge was convened at half-past two and after a short session, a procession was organized as follows:

Grand Lodge of New Brunswick

Most Worshipful Bro. Robert T. Clinch, Grand Master

The various bodies were marshaled in order of procession on Queen Square, thence moved through the several streets to the site of the building where the ceremony of laying the corner stone was conducted by Most Worshipful Brother Clinch assisted by Grand Lodge officers.

With the corner stone laid work progressed steadily on the building so that by May 1, 1879 the various Masonic bodies were able to take possession of the building and occupy the temporary quarters. They continued to occupy these temporary quarters up until April 22, 1884 when the main meeting room had been completed and furnished for the use of Grand Lodge and the subordinate city lodges. Subsequently other apartments were finished and fitted up to meet the needs of the other Masonic bodies.

The contracts were for excavating the foundation, $2,860.00 and for the walls, roof and plain inside finish of the building, $33,583.00. Another $33,557.00 would be spent for the completion of the interior apartments and requisite furnishings for a total cost of $70,000.00

To meet the heavy outlay of funds 2042 shares had been subscribed to by various Masonic bodies, as well as individual members, throughout the province, raising $40,840.00. In addition two popular and successful bazaars were held in the building. The first was held from the 15th to the 25th of September 1879, which realized the sum of $5,908.00. The second was held between July 1st and 10th1884 netting another $4,278.00. The balance of the outlay was provided for by a mortgage against the property and building.

From the time the New Brunswick Masonic Hall Company was formed in 1872 the ownership had been mixed, with the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick, the various Masonic bodies in the city and individual members holding shares. In 1913 the Board of General Purposes arrived at a decision that it would be advantageous if the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick were the sole owner. To this end the various shareholders were approached and asked to turn over their shares to Grand Lodge without any monetary consideration. While a number of the Masonic bodies, as well as individual shareholders were not happy with the proposal, by mid 1914 all had complied with the request and the property and building became the possession of the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick.

On January 26, 1929 fire would once again haunt the Masonic fraternity in Saint John when the Masonic Temple was all but destroyed. The Evening Time Globe of January 26th carried an extensive story on the fire and from the opening paragraphs we find the following “Nothing left but the brick skeleton and inside it a smouldering inferno of timbers on which firemen were still directing numerous hose streams this afternoon, is left of the New Brunswick Grand Masonic Lodge’s building in Germain Street. Over thirty firemen fought the blaze, which, with the lights in the south end of the city turned off, could be seen as far as Loch Lomond. Four pumpers, two chemical, two steam as well as ladder wagons were used to fight the fire.”

With the destruction of the Masonic Temple the Board of General Purposes was faced with a decision as to what course of action they would take. To this end an emergency meeting of Grand Lodge was held on March 21st, 1929 wherein a resolution was passed that the Masonic Grand Lodge Corporation undertake to transfer to any Masonic body or Masonic Corporation in Saint John the premises on Germain Street, provided that body or Corporation undertake to erect a proper Masonic Temple in the said City of Saint John. With the challenge before them the five city lodges, namely Albion No. 1, St. Johns No. 2, Hibernia No. 3, Union Lodge of Portland No. 10 and The New Brunswick Lodge No. 22 banded together to form the Masonic Temple Ltd and assume ownership of the property and building on Germain Street.

By the end of May 1929 Garnett W. Wilson had been engaged as architect and plans prepared along with estimates of the cost of restoration. The plans called for a four-story building at a cost of $113,000.00. Based on the plans and estimates the newly formed Masonic Temple Ltd proceeded with the task of restoring the building and by November 26th, 1930 the restoration had sufficiently advanced that the Masonic bodies were once again able to occupy their quarters.

Today the Masonic Temple Ltd. continues as the owner of this historic building and while the stewardship is not an easy task, the Directors continue to exercise their duties with diligence and dedication.

H.M.S.Scott was launched on 18 October 1917; on 15 August 1918, however, she was sunk off the Dutch coast — less than a year after entering service - in the same accident with the R-class destroyer HMS Ulleswater. The cause of her sinking is unclear. It is assumed that a German U-boat torpedoed and sunk her, but it is also possible that she hit a mine. Nevertheless, the German submarine U-17 — which had been patrolling and mining the area — is usually credited with her sinking.
the CWGC have 23 casualties for HMS Scott. Unless noted otherwise, casualties are Royal Navy, died 15/08/1918 and commemorated at Chatham Naval Memorial (four men were buried in a cemetery in the Netherlands
The wreck of Scott is approximately 20 nmi (37 km; 23 mi) off the Dutch coast. The wreck lies upright with the stern in 35 m (115 ft) of water, and the bow in 28 m (92 ft). The keel and the engines are still visible.

William Edward Parker was first buried in Zandvoort next to W.E.Dobson.
This Dobson was in fact Haco Dobson but by mistake the Initials W.E. were borrowed from his neighbour and recorded to him.
Only 2 years ago he was honoured with his own gravestone.

Reverend W.E.Scoville

There was a Rev. W. E. Scovil (as mentioned in your ad) who was a teacher, receiving his teaching licence in Windsor Nova Scotia in 1827 and who was active in New Brunswick until his death in 1876. I found him listed in two directories, the first running a commercial school, and the second as the principal of a school on King street, although not called “King Street School”.
