Sartoris Magic for 2013 Festival - 6 July 2007

On 6 July, Sartoris Lodge 9497 held an evening of music and magic in aid of the 2013 Festival.

WBro Bill Abram, Worshipful Master, hosted the evening at the Fordham Arms, Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire attracting a full house. After live music from Karl and Paul, they were treated to a magnificent buffet courtesy of the landlords, Bro Simon Harrison and Brother Ian McLinden.

Everyone was enthralled with an hour of magic including WBro Bill Abram During his act he successfully hypnotised a racoon, cut it into three pieces and restored it before anyone could ring the RSPCA! Bro Terry Lock stunned the audience with his close-up magic and everyone was mystified by the mental magic of Tai.


The labours of the evening having ended, the audience spent until the early hours of the morning 'in refreshment', listening to the amazing sound of Karl and Paul.

In the space of a few short hours £552.50 were raised towards the 2013 Festival. This 'magical' feat took place without the audience even realising! Special thanks are due to Bro Simon Harrison for working so hard to make the evening such a success.
