The Second Provincial Grand Principal, E. Comp. A John Yeates, PAGSoj, attended Vernon Chapter on 18 March to witness the Exaltation ceremony of Comp AaronBourne . Ex Comp Simon Rogers performed the role of Principal Sojourner with great skill and sincerity with Ex Comp Neil Crabbe , the Second Principal of the Chapter , having been invited to conduct the Exaltation ceremony by Ex Comp George Munroe the Z of Vernon Chapter , performing a similarly wonderful ceremony. 

A happy festive Board led to £300 being raised for the Red Cross . A wonderful night was had by all as the Companions of Vernon Chapter bid their farewell to our Second Provincial Grand Principal.
