Brethren,

Whilst visiting my Aunt and fellow geek I started flicking through a book she had just bought and had been telling me about, The Parochial History and Antiquities of Stockton upon Tees first published 1796. I found there was a small section relating to Freemasonry and in the list of other works there was Masonic Orations. I am assuming (rightly or wrongly) this is a compilation of all his Masonic Orations. I have found through Ugle and British Library websites that he was Chaplain in one of my sister Lodges, Philanthropy No. 19 as it was then and have found some individual orations but no joy in locating the book itself. Any advice would be gratefully accepted.

fraternal regards
Glenn

Is the copy she has, a proper copy or a Kessinger / facsimile copy? Mike Mersey Lodge No. 5434 Website The Freemasons'''' Grand Charity Website See my BALLS here

She has lent me the facsimile. fraternal regards Glenn Lodge of Unity 6003 Eclectic Lodge of Mark Master Masons 39 Whitwell Chapter 2104

Am going to try the Provincial library next week and see what we can find. regards Glenn Lodge of Unity 6003 Eclectic Lodge of Mark Master Masons 39 Whitwell Chapter 2104
