A Memorable Evening at Veritas Lodge no.9108

Friday, 25th October was a evening that will live long in the memory of those Bedfordshire Masons who had the good fortune to attend Veritas Lodge.

The evening began with a full team visit headed by the Provincial Grand Master, Nick Edwards,  an occasion in itself worthy of celebration. However, the evening’s distinction did not end there.

Veritas Lodge had the great honour of being chosen to host the third delivery of this year’s Prestonian Lecture, one of only four formally presented each year, delivered this year by Judge Simon Medland KC, Deputy Provincial Grand Master of Cheshire.

What a privilege it was. His presentation titled “Our Friends in the North” was rich in factual and historical detail, and interwoven with his inimitable humour captivated all present and will be remembered fondly for years to come.

At the Festive Board, the evening reached a wonderful conclusion when Martin Wilson, Secretary of Veritas Lodge, presented to  Judge Simon Medland a cheque for £1,000 in support of the Cheshire 2027 Festival.

The gift was most generously received, to which the response was delivered with characteristic wit and charm providing a fitting and unforgettable close to an exceptional evening.

Congratulations to Veritas Lodge on hosting such a distinguished and memorable occasion.
