From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. X, No. 12, October 1851, Page 384:

Levee at the Masonic Temple. The Levee given by the Grand Lodge of this State, at the Masonic Temple, on the evening of the 18th ult., for the reception and welcome of visiting Brethren from Canada and other parts of the country, who had come to the city to attend the great three days "Railroad Festival" wes a chaste and appropriate affair. The large hall of the Grand Lodge was as well filled as personalcomfort and convenience vrould allow. Distinguished Brethren were present from Montreal, Toronto, Kingston, and Coburg, in Canada, and from Rhode Island, Maine, and Alabama, and from lreland.

Among our Canadian Brethren, were Sir Allan McNab, Prov. Grand Master for Canada West, and several of the principal officers of the Grand Lodge over which he presides. The visitors riere introduced in due form and fraternally received by the M. W. Grand Master. When all were seated, the D. G. Master, in behalf of the Grand Lodge and Fraternity of the Commonwealth, pronounced the "address of welcome." It was a chaste, forcible and eloquent performance, and was received with enthusiasm by all who had the happiness to hear it. The reply was given by Sir Allan Macnab, and was well received by the Brethren. In both addresses the genuine principles of Patriotism and Freemasonry were beautiful blended together and happily illustrated. We took brief notes of both, but have no room for even an abstract of them the present month.

The ceremonies being over, the Brethren repaired to the large reception room of the hall, and partook of a banquet, served up in the best style of the best caterers in the city. The tables presented a beautiful appearance, and were highly creditable to the good taste of the committee and all concerned in their arrangement.

Here the usual toasts were giveo and speeches made,- after which the Brethren separated, all feeling, we believe, that they had spent an agreeable, and not altogether unprofitable evening.
