On the 5th and 6th of July 1916, the Grand Orange Lodge of England met in Preston. Rev Louis A Ewart, DD, DSc, was still Grand Secretary. In his Grand Secretary’s Report for that year he said the following, -

The past twelve months have been eventful ones for the British Empire. It has been a year of severe trial and sorrow to all of us. Very many of those we loved lie beneath the sod of blood-soaked battlefields, and others have gone down to a watery grave. Orangemen have taken part in every action of the British troops, on all battlefields, and some, alas, will never return. We lost many of our brave brothers in the recent naval battle (The Battle of Jutland – MEP) including the officers and members of the Lodge on the “Defence”, which was sunk by the enemy. A good number of our dear brothers went down with Lord Kitchener on the “Hampshire.” We had letters from some of them with contributions for the Orange Fund just before the eventful journey.

Lodges were formed for almost every battalion in the Ulster Division, at their various camps in England, and both officers and men have paid the highest compliment to our efforts on their behalf. We have had the honour of initiating some of Ulster’s leading citizens into the Orange Degree, and a large number of Protestants are constantly being received into their lodges. Orange meetings are held in the trenches, and have been held in Roman Catholic Schools and even Convents, in France.

We have recently opened a Lodge at Groningen, in Holland, among the interned Britishers of the Hawke Battalion. Number 1 District of the Liverpool Province have taken over this Lodge and financed it. Several excellent Lodges have recently been opened on His Majesty’s battleships, cruisers, and destroyers in the Navy. Great progress has already been made in numbers on the “Warspite”, “Australia”, “Virginia”, and “King Alfred”.
We have cause to be proud of our men on the “Warspite”, sister ship to the “Queen Elizabeth”, for their splendid gallantry in the recent naval battle. The “Warspite” bore the brunt of a terrific attack by no less than six German Battleships. She put up a glorious fight and sank three of her assailants, disabled two, while the sixth fled. We are delighted to hear that all our brethren are safe and unharmed and that the whole crew are to be recommended. A good amount of the Lodge property was lost and the Warrant is somewhat damaged. We can proudly boast that there are Orangemen on board every ship in His Majesty’s Navy.

We estimate that over one million copies of the Scriptures have been circulated among our brave men in the Army and Navy in all parts of the world. The task has been an enormous one, but we have been rewarded by the fact that the Word of God has accomplished God’s purposes, for not only have our Testaments and Bibles saved the lives of men (we have numerous instances of this), but souls have been born again and eternally saved.

The Lodge mentioned as having been formed among the interned Marines of the Hawke Battalion was Loyal Orange Lodge 874. This met, “by Special Arrangement” at the Interneerings Camp at Groningen. The Worshipful Master was William Aldridge and all communications were to be sent to J H Green, the District Secretary of No 1 District.


Military Lodges had been housed in the Woolwich District No 64 for some years. In 1916, 64 District still had the following lodges, -
