History OF the knights Tenn.
plaP.

The graphic story Of the origin rise, aud
growth aud the decline aud fall, of this fa-
nous military and religious order has hard y
its parallel in all history. Of modern histo
rians, the author of this sketch, James An
thony Froude is, probably better than any
other. qualified to tell it in a manner worthy
Of the theme.
This celebrated order was established in
lIl7, for the purpose Of keeping opeu, for
pilgrims, the road between the seaport of
Acre aud Jerusalem 1t consisted originally
of nine French knights of noble birth, who
assumed the appellaton of "The Poor Broth
ers iu Christ" they took upon themselves
vows of poverty and of chastity, and of un-
questionable obedience to the Patriarch of
Jerusalem and to the Knight whom they
should choose as their Grand Master. The
Order soon grew into the most important one
in Christeudom, having immense possessions
in nearly every kingdom in Europe, even af-
ter their final expulsion from Palestine by
the Sarucens in 1889. The story of the jeal-
ousy which sprung up against the Order
among the European soyereigns-the Pope
included-is told in sufficient detail. Per
haps the most Interesting chapters are those
which tell of the arrest and trial OF the
Freuch TempIars in 1907 their condemnation
and the burning at the stake, i'll 1911, OF Jac
cues de MorIay, their last Grand Master.
The historical sketch above referred to has
recently been published i'll series of articles
in The Library Magazine, and is now issued
in very neat cloth bouud volume at the
price of !5 cents, both that and The Library
Magazine being published by John B. Alder
of New Yurk-whch accounts for tho low
price; issued by any other house the c"s
would probably be $l.0O or more.
