STANDARD WORKS on FREEMASONRY Handsomely printed in antique type , large 4 to , cloth , 7 s . 6 d KENNING'S •ARCHAEOLOGICAL LIBRARY . Edited by Rev . A . F . A . WOODFORD Past Grand Chaplain . Vol . I . contains Anderson ' s Constil tutions of 1723 , being the first complete reprint in England of that memorable book . It is admirably printed and illustrated as it was first issued , and will be found a work of the greatest interest to all Masons , and especially to those » ho like still to pore over the ancient records of the Craft . The Wilson MS . Constitutions , which forms the Second Part of Vol . I ., is also of much value to antiquarians and the Craft . It is first mentioned in the manifesto of the " Lodge of Antiquity " in 177 S , and the story of its discovery by the editor has been told in the pages of the Freemason . It is hoped that this will lead to the discovery of missing MSS ., and the future volumes of the " Archaeological Library " will lead . Masonic students to a clearer conception of the real history of Freemasonry and the true Kaarlno- of if s verv curious and ancient MSS .

Drawn from the best sources and the most recent investigations . Second edition , revised and preface written by Bro . D . MURRAY LYON , R . W . Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Scotland . OPINIONS OT TH » PRESS . Bro . Findel , who has written a sober , earnest , and elaborate history of Freemasonry in all quarters of the worid , does not go to so remote a period for the origin of the Fraternity . We do not suppose that such a mass ot material for a history of the Craft was evei gathered together as may be found in this volume , in which thc author seems to have fairly exhausted the subject . —The Athenaum . Herr Findel has brought together a large number of facts ; his book ia a valuable addition to the literature of Freemasonry . —The Buildtr .

8 vo , cloth , Third edition , revised and enlarged , 15 s . THE EARLY HISTORY AND ANTIQUITIES OF FREEMASONRY . As connected with the Nors Guilds , the Oriental and Mediaeval building Fraternity . By GEORGE F . FORT . EXTRACT FROM AUTHOR ' S PREFACE . The Work Is the result of years of labour , whose original and persistent designnas uniformly been to arrive at truth . In no instance are traditions resting on unsubstantial ground adduced al corroborative testimony of the line of research which , after careful examination of facts , he has adopted . Mere legends or guild * tales do not appear in this book , unless produced in that portion 01 the treatise abandoned expressly to the traditional history of the Fraternity . In a word , the constant and invariable tendency of the author in the ensuing pages is to bring the history and antiquities ot the Craft down to an undisputed historical basis ; and , in the pursuance of this subject , he was frequently compelled to abandon the usual track followed by writers on this subject , and to rely upon authorities whose testimony—found noted in the margin—will be accepted without suspicion of intemperate or uncritical zeal . The immediate argument and scope of the treatise may be briefly state * as follows ! To commence with a narrative of the state of fine arts at the decline of the Roman Empire , and also of the propagation ot architecture and its kindred sciences by bodies of builders , «*» developed into the Middle-Age Freemasons , whose history is carried down to the formal extinction of the society as an operative brotherhood in the year 7717 . Among the several appendices will be found a contribution to the History of the Lost Word , together with other valuable documentary evidence , which is added to make the san » •aore acceptable to the public and Fraternity at large .
