the few have suffered for the many , Bro . Gould has produced a history which may be read by anyone , and at the same time , which was much more difficult , he has produced a history both readable and interesting .

has devoted so much care and energy in order to bring clearly to a focus all that is really known of the subjects embraced in this volume , and we feel sure the succeeding ones will not be behind this one in value . Although we are unwilling without further consideration to give unqualified assent to all the deductions drawn by Bro . Gould with
regard to the Gompagnonage and Freemasonry , as we feel with him that he has " only touched the fringe of a great subject , " at the same time it seems clear that he hardly exaggerates when he writes " that in the Gompagnonage and in English Freemasonry are numerous coincidences which occur too frequently , and are too strongly marked , to be purely accidental .

BY G . H . R . TXEAR in the mountain breezes J-- * - A message from above ,
Hear in the rippling brooklet A harmony of love . Hear in the ocean's heartbeats A cadence full of power , Hear anthems in the thunder
And music in the shower . Hear kindly words when uttered , Hear of each noble deed ; Hear tales of generous pity
And help for other ' s need ; Hear what is pure and holy , Hear what is good and true , Hear echoes of the glory That lies beyond the blue .
