He maintains that the old traditions and moral teachings of the ancient fellowship which existed in Britain in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries were preserved by the Masons' Company of London until the middle of the seventeenth century, culminating in 1717 in the establishment of a Grand Lodge of England.
The hall of the Company was situate in Masons' Alley, Basinghall Street, and the Masons' Hall Tavern still stands to mark its site.
It is well known that apart from the London Company, or associated with it, there was a very old institution of a brotherhood amongst members of the craft extending both in England and abroad, for the government of its members, who were operative masons and their kindred.

 Franklin
Franklin opposed the Stamp Act, asserting that taxation ought to be the prerogative of the representative legislatures, but when it had been passed he made the mistake of underestimating American emotions; he ordered stamps for Franklin and Hall and nominated a friend for the post of stamp officer in Philadelphia.
His portrait was everywhere, on objets d'art from snuffboxes to chamber pots, his society sought after by diplomats, scientists, Freemasons, and fashionable ladies alike.
By that time Franklin was back in Philadelphia, where, in conflict with the proprietors, the legislature decided that Pennsylvania ought to become a crown colony, and by the end of 1764 Franklin was back in London to negotiate in vain for a new charter.

Trench Art- the evocative name given to objects made from the detritus of war- is the subject explored in this year's Summer exhibition at Freemasons' Hall, London.
Although Trench Art is best known from the 1914-1918 War, the exhibition will include examples from the wars as early as the sixteenth century and pieces from recent conflicts and will put forward the case that all wars and war zones have produced examples.
Every piece of Trench Art tells a story of the momentous experiences of its maker - whether front line soldier, prisoner of war, civilian or refugee and the exhibition will examine the diverse motivations behind the creation of the objects such as remembrance, creating a sense of familiarity and trade.

 The Masonic Apron
The earliest aprons with rosettes in the Museum at Freemasons' Hall [in London] are of about the period 1815, and with levels about 1800."The United Grand Lodge early made a duty of simplifying the apron, which emblem had become of a bewildering number of patterns, sizes, and decorative styles.
The Apron however, tells the story of exact justice, equality of opportunity, and the brotherhood of man. It is not a stilted phrase and an exaggeration of speech as that brother said.
Other religions also use Aprons as a part of the accepted dress for their religious leaders and white was the common color to the Aprons.
