Hesketh Conclave No 309 Install a new Member.
 
In a very pleasing and well worked ceremony, Most Puissant Sovereign, P Kt John S Anderson installed a member of his Craft Lodge into the Conclave. W Kt Alistair M Milner is currently the Master of the Eccleston Lodge No 7754, and was installed into his Craft Lodge Chair by John.

All the officers did a splendid job and really made Alistair welcome into the Conclave. the Ceremony was topped of by P Kt Derek Alty's rendition of the History of the Order, in Derek's inimitable style.
Going to a Conclave to represent the Intendant General is an honour not to be taken lightly especially when you are visiting the I G's own Mother Conclave. But knowing so many of the Worthy Knights who are Members does help. I was treated to a feast of ritual, a very nice social board and the camaraderie was superb and ever friendly.

The Conclave has already got plans for the KHS ceremony at the end of April and no doubt Alistair will be treated to another "feast of ritual" then.

For tonight, it was a big well done to everybody who took part.
