Thomas Dunckerley.
In 1786 the rank of Past Senior Grand Warden was conferred on him by the Grand Lodge " in grateful testimony of the high sense of his zealous and indefatigable exertions for many years to promote the honour and interest of the Society . "
In concluding this sketch , a few words anent the portrait which is here presented to the readers of " THE MASOXIC ILLUSTRATED " may not be out of place . The artist , Philip
Van Dyke , was a London Mason , initiated in the Caledonian Lodge in 1777 . He seems to have been much in Dunckerley ' s company in the Western counties , and when a lodge or an individual desired a portrait of his patron , he painted it for the moderate sum of live guineas ; no doubt
many of the originals have disappeared , but one still hangs in the Masonic Hall at Poole and another in the Masonic Hall at Bristol .
