Origin of Freemasonry Unknown.

origin of Freemasonry Unknown.
The society of Free Masons ante
dates all other societies by centuries.
its origin is so ancient that the place
and time of its birth are unknown.
It's legend say that it was organized
at the building of the temple of Solo
mon, but this is not accepted with
much credence. BY some writer's its
origin has been ascribed TO the
Druids, by others to the Knights
Templar and to Pythagoras, and 1t
has not escaped the fad which in mod
ern times has attributed so many
Of the uncertain productions to the
nimble brain Of Sir Francis Bacon.
Within recent years traces of the
organization are said to have been
discovered In Palestine or the Egyp-
tian obelisks and in the pyramids.
In fact, 1t has been asserted that in.
vestigators have become satisfied
that the society grew directly from
an organization engaged in the con-
struction Of the pyramids.
