SATURDAY , J 25 . Star Lodge of Instruction ( 1275 ) , Marquis of Granby , New Cross-road , at 7 . South-Eastern Masonic Charitable Association , New Cross Branch .

THE legend , that every one is supposed to know , runs to the effect that the four children of Lamach , and his two wives Ada and Sella , founded the beginning of all the sciences in the world . Theeldest son , Jabal , pursued the science of geometry , and abandoned his flocks and herds to build with stones

and trees ; his brother Jubal founded the science of music ; his brother Tubal Cain founded smithcraft in all metals ; and his sister founded the craft of weaving . Having a foreknowledge of the punishment about to fall upon mankind , they engraved their sciences on two stones , so that they might not

be lost when the " vengeance for synn" came . One of these stones was of marble , in the belief that it would not bum if fire consumed all else upon the face of the earth ; the other was " clepped laterns , " supposed not to be able to drown or sink in any water , if a flood should be the means of destruction . After the deluge , the great-grandson of Noah found

one of these stones , and saw the science written on it , and taught it to other people . "And at the making of the Tower of Babylon there was masonrye first made much of . " Nimrod wasamason as well as hunter it seems , and fond of his science , or , as we should now say , trade . And when the city of Nineveh and other cities of the east were to be built , he sent his cousin , Fthe King of Nineveh

three score of masons to assist him . From this little band of masons , bound together as strangers in a strange land , possessed of the knowledge of a craft that was beyond the understanding of the dwellers in tents , according to this story , came Freemasonry . —Builder .
