The official visitor, 3rd Provincial Grand Principal, E Comp Del Pearson, delivered the address to the Principals and later thanked the Principals for his warm welcome, expressing his intention to keep close contact with St Ivo Chapter in his ‘retirement’. E Comp Margot thanked him for his unstinting support of the Provincial Royal Arch and St Ivo Chapter.
