English Freemasons at Jerusalem, 1898. 'The special Masonic cruise by the Midnight Sun to the Holy Land (arranged by Dr. H. S. Lunn, the originator of the Co-operative Educational Tours), under the leadership of the Venerable Archdeacon Stevens, P.G.C., as chaplain, reached Jaffa on Jan. 31, and arrived at Jerusalem the same day by special train. Out of the 120 visitors forming the party nearly forty were English Masons, representing different Lodges in the United Kingdom, as well as Colonial Lodges. The Worshipful Master and members of the Royal Solomon Mother Lodge, 293, Jerusalem, had arranged to welcome their English brethren in Solomon's Quarries, outside the Damascus Gate, and accordingly, on Thursday, Feb. 3, a Masonic meeting was held in the said quarries, during which fraternal greetings were exchanged, instructive discourses and speeches delivered, and resolutions passed. The photograph we reproduce was taken just outside the quarries after the meeting, and supplied to us by Mr. C. N. Tadros, British Consulate, Jerusalem'. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
