Charles Stansfeld Jones Diary Entry Saturday, 1 January 1916
Last night at 11:22 P.M. we opened Lodge and Raised Brother H.H. to III°. The Light went up exactly at 12 Midnight. It was a good way of celebrating the dying of the old and birth of New Year. After this I appointed various Officers for 1916 and Installed Brother B.D. [Benjamin Dawson] in the Chair. So ends my office as Right Worshipful Master of Blue Lodge, exactly one year from the day I was officially made Honorary VII° and started this work here. I have done my best for the Brethren, and it cannot be said things are altogether a failure. May the Work continue to the Honour and Glory of Our Father. Aumn
