present name given them by Titus Caesar twenty
four years afterwards and they called from the
singular character Of their meetings. and from their

Portugal in the sixth century It did not reach France
and England until the eleventh century. 1t was then
established in the latter country by John De Neville who

lodges in every quarter of the globe and by its useful
and benevolent character commands the respect and
countenance of all who acquainted with its nature and
purposes Those upon whose information reliance may
be placed give credit to Baltimore for FIRST introducing
