The Oldest Lodge of Masons,

The Masons of Philadelphia have at
last been enabled to make good their
claim that that was the mother city of
Free Masonry in America, and thus set
at rest the plea of Massachusetts, for pri-
ority. The ledger book of St. Johns
lodge, kept by Benjamin Franklin, and
giving list of members from June 81,
1871, to June "A, 173S, a stiff vellum vol
ume, all in FrankliH's own handwriting,
is now in the library of the Historical
Society, having been presented to it by
George L. Ingham, of Salem, n. j., who
received it from a descendant of David
Hall, who was Franklin's partner in the
printing business. 1t is well preserved
and bears on its face its evidence as an
original record. st isl says Clifford
p. McCalla, junior grand warden of the
grand lodge. who discovered it, 1.-THE
oldest Masonic lodge-book by far in
America. The oldest existing lodge rec
ord book previously known in Pennsyl-
| vania dates back only to 1866, and the
oldest lodge record in Massachusetts,
that of st. Johns lodge, Boston, was
compiled and written in 175l-2. and re-
cords events only from July, 1873, when
| Masonry was established in Massachu-
sets. The discovered record antedates
| it two years. In it are the details of the
