		The similarities between the Haberdashers' Company and the Masonic Fraternity are very striking; the more so since the Company was here chosen at Mdom as a specimen of the Twelve Great City CompaDies of London and the long list of lesser Companies, the Mason Company being among the latter.
		It is the extraordinary similarity of the old Free Masonry with the old gilds and companies coupled with the fact that it alone developed into a worldwide Fraternity which is of itself the best proof that the Freemasons also possessed a secret of their own which none of the others ever had.
