"The Reception of H . R . H . the Prince of Wales at the Grand Conclave of the Knights Templar . May 1 . 3 , 187 r , " is worthy of a high place , but added to this , it possesses a deep historical and

Sarony anel Smith , Scarboro , by the new and admirable autotype process , and published by Bro . Kenning , of London and Liverpool . The grouping of Knights in the distinguished conclave

is highly artistic , the portraits graphic and life-like , and the tout ensemble of the most striking character . The picture ought to be in the collection of every Mason .
