The first Masonic funeral that
ever occurred in California took
place n 1stqs and wa performed
over q brother found drowned in
the Bay Of San Francisco. An &C.
count Of the ceremonies states that
on the body of the deceased was
found asilver mark Of q Mason,
upon which were engraved the in

were also the Masonic Pavement,
representing the ground floor Of
King Solomon's Temple, the iden-

the blazing star in the centre. On

Searching for the Truth

Truth, indeed, came once into the
world with her Divine Master, and was
a perfect shape most glorious to look
upon; but when he ascended and his
Apostles after him were laid asleep,
then straight rose wicked world OF
deceivers, who, as that story goes OF
the Egyptian Typhon, with his con-
spirators, how they dealt with the
god Osiris, took the Virgin Truth,
hewed her lovely form into thous-
and pieces, and scattered hem to the
four winds. From that time ever
since, the sad friends OF truth, such as
burst appear, initiating ll'e careful
search that Isis made for the mangled
boy of Osiris, went up and down gath
ering up limb by limb, still as they
find them. We have not yet found
them all, nor ever shall do, till her
Masters second coming: He shall
