Details
Vols. 1809 and 1813, together with duplicates for 1792, 1793, 1800, 1803—4—5—8—11—12, were presented by the R.W. Prov. G. Master, Sir E. A. H. Lechmere, Bart., M.P. These are in rich binding, with plumes—” Ich Dien,” and belonged to George IV. when GrandMaster.
The Grand Lodge Calendars, officially issued since 1777, contain the Roll of Lodges as altered from year to year and other important information. They likewise exhibit the several numerations made by order of the Grand Lodge. The original numeration was in 1728-29, followed in 1740 by another, and others in due course, 1755, 1770, 1781-2, and 1792. The Calendars for 1781 and 1782 show two different numerations owing to an error made in 1780. The numerations since the “Union” of December, 1813,were made in 1814, 1832, and 1863; exhibited in the Calendars in each case for the first time, in 1815, 1833, and 1864.
