My Dear Brethren,

                  My affectionate greetings to all of you.
How quickly the time flies! It was just the other day
when we had our Annual Meeting at Kolkata and
now we are all geared up for our Half Yearly meeting.
I feel so contented and gratified to let you know that
this Half Yearly Meeting will be hosted by Lodge
Shillong No. 61 in Shillong itself.

                 The unscathed beauty, the cool breeze, the
 disciplined crowd, pollution free atmosphere with
 generous hosts of exquisite etiquettes, the Brethren
 of Shillong are looking forward to your arrival. It
would not be a simple meeting having Regional Craft,
Mark & Chapter routine meetings but there would
be host of other items, For Example: Quiz
Competition, Interesting lectures by Experienced
Masons for the benefit of our younger Masons on
topics which have always been intriguing and
aroused curiosity with many interesting surprises, all
 of this await your benign presence. We will be having
 interesting programmes for the spouses as well.

             I warmly invite you to start getting yourself

 registered in large numbers for this pleasant trip

 enjoying not only the scenic beauty but the
 hospitality of this most coveted hill station of our
 country.
