	Abbey of Luxeuil
		To Luxeuil came such monks as Conon, Abbot of Lérins, before setting about the reform of his somewhat degenerated monks, and St. Wandrille and St. Philibert who founded respectively the Abbeys of Fontenelle and Jumièges in Normandy, and spent years in studying the rule observed in monasteries which derived their origin from Luxeuil.
		The few survivors rebuilt the abbey, and later, under the government of the eighteenth abbot, St. Ansegisus, it appeared as if it were about to recover its former greatness and prosperity.
		At the French Revolution the monks were dispersed; but the abbey church, built in the purest French Gothic of the fourteenth century, was not destroyed; neither were the cloisters and conventual buildings.

		The abbey was destroyed by Saracen raids in 732, and the script is no more seen after that date.

		In operative practice the "lodge" originally signified the place of work, especially the stone yard, being derived from the Old French loge meaning an arbour, which was adopted into Middle English to mean a stall as in a modern theatre.
		The earliest known reference to a "lodge" as a building occurs in the accounts of the Vale Royal Abbey in 1277, when logias and mansiones were erected for the workers because the site of the abbey was some distance from habitation.
		Having regard to this religious association, which was supported by a significant inflow of operative masons from France to Scotland, it is surprising that Scottish operative lodges did not have their own traditional histories.
