Ire La Vs.

Here is a startling fact for the Telegraph ! but what is more , it diffuses itself throughout the entire army , from the general to the non-commissioned officer , and , * shocking to relate / whole regiments go out on foreign service , with their ' warrants' and Masonic insignia to hold military Lodges when settled at any particular station , whether in India , in Canada , or the Levant ; but is her Most Gracious Majesty in danger from this formidable organisation ? Is her throne encompassed by secret enemies—Ms the social edifice convulsed by the widespread influence ' of the Order ? ' No ; her Majesty ' s father , the late Duke of

Kent , was at the head of the Order as a general in the army , and her royal uncle , the late Duke of Sussex , continued in his office as ' Grand Master' of England and its dependencies until the day of his death . We presume , if treason lurked beneath its folds , some royal eye , jealous of the prerogative of the monarchy , and anxious for its safety , would detect it . "Let ns now , by way of advice , suggest to the Telegraph the expediency of concealing its animus when it dwells upon subiects of which it is ignorant . It

should be ever grateful for the services rendered the Head of the Church . ^_ J ) oes the writer forget that Pius IX . owes , through Providence , his life to a Freemason , who communicated to the Grand Lodge at Paris the intention of a party to administer poison to him through his cook ? If he will refer to the columns of the public journals , some few years ago , he will there find a public acknowledgment of this service in frustrating the designs of the assassin . "
