The Congress con vened in the elegant and spacious parlor C, where every convenience for the comfort of Delegates and Visiting Brothers, and every facility for the transaction of business had been provided by the efficient Committee of Arrangements of the Pennsylvania Tau Chapter. In the absence of the Worthy Grand Chief, and in compli ment to the Pennsylvania Brothers, Lewis L. Smith, Esq, of Media, Penn., was called to the Chair. The Hon. Wm. B. Smith, Mayor of Philadelphia, was then introduced, who in singularly appropriate and cordial words welcomed the mem bers of the Congress to the freedom and hospitality of the city.
