On Friday 11th April members of The Brigadier Galloway Council No. 126 assembled in the Hong Kong Temple on the 3rd floor of Mark Masons' Hall to conduct their April meeting. After the Council was opened V.W. Bro. Scott Cargill, Deputy District Grand Prefect accompanied by a delegation of District Grand Officers were welcomed into the meeting.
What followed was extraordinary. The Council were conducting the ceremony of The Holy Order of Grand High Priest. They had 2 of their own members present to take the degree plus another 10 candidates visiting from other Councils, 12 in total. The Worshipful Master W. Bro. Pierre Salem was totally unphased by the numbers and gave a flawless delivery of the degree to those lucky candidates, members and visitors present to witness such a great ceremony.
Meeting closed we retired to the bar from some pre-dinner drinks before partaking in a splendid festive board full of chatter and laughter. Food eaten, wine drunk, toasts made, fire executed before finally the Worshipful Master toasted to the next merry meeting.
