From the Editor Welcome to the 242nd edition of the Cross Keys and as such is mainly for ‘242’ interest although I have included more general articles. The first meeting of the lodge will now take place on Thursday 10th February, 2022 at 7.30pm—business TBC. This will allow the Office Bearers’ Room to be redecorated. Happy New Year to all brethren and hopefully we will see a return to ‘normal’ masonic activity. Grant Cover—1847 certificate given to new candidates in 242 before the GL certificates were issued.

After Covid As we saw in December 2021, the article on Numbers showed various patterns over the years. The 1920s was a period of massive increase in the number of initiates and new lodges, as well as buildings. Many lodge buildings are dated from the turn of the 20th century to the 1930s and many had over 500 brethren, 242 being one such example. It is understandable why cliques formed with these numbers as it would have been impossible to get to know every brother and how the phrase ‘more members than masons’ arose. Few Grand Lodges followed our example. Scottish masonry became a ‘sausage factory’ to bring in money and we have suffered over the last few decades as a result of this approach. Many young masons blame Grand Lodge, PGLs and their own PMs for mismanagement; they might be right. Blaming our predecessors won’t lead to anything constructive and I don’t want to go into the 1, 2, 3, mark argument which I think everyone today feels in not right, but we do need to think about the way forward after Covid.
es no longer have brethren installed in dinner suits? If we do not instruct our brethren in the Craft of Masonry then they will have nothing to pass on. Many traditions have been lost (for example, saluting the JW at the recess when retiring temporarily, harmonies, testing candidates thoroughly). Numbers have dropped and will continue due to the pandemic. Candidate numbers are likely to increase this year as many lodges have a back log, but that’s temporary. Let’s not rush candidates through—let’s instruct them properly hoping they will stay long term: we need this to survive. We need to accept that the Craft will return to similar numbers before the wars and that might not be a bad thing at all. We might get to know each other again!
Returning to buildings—too many look awful outside and without the cash, it’s difficult to fix it, but we must try. 242 is looking superb inside and outside and hopefully, brethren will return in similar numbers to before, but it needs a constant upkeep and test fees need to be paid. The Many brethren feel we have lost our relevance public must see run down buildings and wonder in society. Of course, the charitable works conif it’s the same inside—would you want to be tinue and we aim to have given Prostrate Scotpart of that? land £1m in the near future which is magnificent. However, that is not our raison d’etre—we Every lodge needs a strategic plan for the next are much more. The charitable side is seen by 2/3 years and PGL/GL can help if no one in the society, but there are so many charities and or- lodge is versed in this thinking. Introduce a seganisations collecting for charity especially by ries of talks which will help new candidates (and direct debit, that it’s rarely newsworthy in pa- members!), have a programme within the lodge pers. of helping any brother head towards the chair and perhaps engage with the local community Most lodges can probably look into their 19th C in a non-charitable way. 242 allows the local history and see degrees were part of a system history society to use its hall—can this be exwhich included talks on masonry explaining our tended? I’m sure lodges can think of ways in history (local and nationally), symbols, the their neighbourhood. meaning of the ritual, moral lessons, etc. Somewhere along the line, the short 19th C minutes Only we can make the difference in our lodges became longer than some meetings!! Masonic so let’s all work as a team and bring one idea to etiquette became more casual—how many lodg- the General Committee.

Little House on the Prairie Most brethren in their mid-40s upwards will remember the TV series Little House on the Prairie. However, probably very few like myself were aware that ‘Pa’ (Charles P. Ingalls) was an active freemason in De Smet Lodge No.55 in South Dakota having joined in 1886. Not only that, but his wife and two daughters were also active in Bethlehem Chapter No.12 of the Eastern Star. He is shown earing a square and compassed badge. Bro. Charles was born on the 10th of this month in 1836 in NY and after much travelling, settled in De Smet where he continued farming. He also ran successfully for local public offices including Justice of the Peace, the school board, street commissioner, deacon in the Congregational church and Deputy Sheriff; for a few years he ran a local retail store and finally sold insurance. He became active in the lodge taking the office of Treasurer for a couple of years and was one of three members responsible for the repair of the Lodge furnishings in the 1890s. The lodge still owns the Tyler’s sword used by Bro. Ingalls. His service came to an end with his death on June 8, 1902. He died of heart disease at the age of 66 years. De Smet Lodge No.55 conducted a full Masonic funeral service for Charles, and paid for his final expenses, including providing his headstone.

The Oldest Royal Arch Chapters The oldest of the Scottish chapters are given here in the order of their official numbers, but not, unfortunately, in the order of the dates of their founding. As from the early nineteenth century, however, Scottish chapters, with but few exceptions, are numbered in accordance with their priority of date:
The distinction as to the oldest Chapter currently lies with Stirling Rock Royal Arch, which recorded in 1743, that “Mungo Nicol, shoemaker and brother James McEwan, Student of Divinity at Stirling, and being found qualified, they were admitted Royal Arch Masons.”
No. 1 is Edinburgh, founded in 1779 (F); No. 2, Stirling Rock, Stirling, 1743 (F); No. 3, Enoch, Montrose, 1765 (F); No. 4, Operative, Banff, 1766 (F); No. 5, Linlithgow, 1768 (F); No.6, Union, Dundee, 1773 (F); No. 7, Noah, Brechin, 1774 (F); No. 8, Haran, Laurencekirk, 1774 (F); No. 9, Hope, Arbroath, 1779 (F); No. 10, Josiah, St Andrews, 1780 (F); St Luke, Aberdeen, 1782 (F); No. 12, Elijah, Forfar, 1783 (F); No. 13, Macduff, Banffshire, 1784 (F); No. 14, St Andrew, Buckie, 1787 (F); No. 15, Land of Cakes, Eyemouth, 1787 (F); Old Aberdeen, 1788 (F); No. 17, Greenock, Greenock, 1789 (F); No. 18, Ayr St Paul, Ayr, 1789 (F); No. 19, Strathmore, Glamis. 1789 (F); St James', Aberdeen, 1789 (F); No. 21, St George, Aberdeen, 1795 (F); Royal Caledonian, Annan, 1796; No. 22, Banks of Douglas Water, Douglas, 1797 (F); Loyal Scots, Langholm, 1797; St Albans, Lanark, 1797 (F); No. 23, Horeb, Stonehaven, 1799 (F); Military, Ayrshire Militia, 1799 (F); Grand Assembly, Kilmarnock, 1798; No. 41, Operative, Aberdeen, 1792.
The R.A. ceremonial is believed to have been introduced from England, and in the case of one chapter, the Union, No. 6, Dundee, is known definitely to have been brought by a military lodge warranted by the ‘Antients' Grand Lodge of England. An early chapter, Land of Cakes, of Eyemouth, a coast town less than ten miles north of Berwick, has two charters, an English one of 1787 and a Scottish one of 1817, and was, of course, working on the English charter when Robert Burns was exalted in that chapter on 19th May, 1787. The oldest minute is from Fredericksburg Lodge No.4 in Virginia from December 1753 which mentioned three MMs being “ raised to the degree of Royal Arch Mason. The RA lodge being shut, Entered Apprentice Lodge opened.” This is George Washington’s lodge which was chartered by the Grand Lodge of Scotland!
Names in italics are of chapters no longer in existence. ‘F' indicates founding chapters of the Grand Chapter.

2nd & 4th Masters of Paisley Kilwinning William Cochrane 7th Earl of Dundonald succeeded to the title of 7th Lord Cochrane of Dundonald on 28 May 1737 (first Earl succeeded the title from the Earl of Abercorn). He lived in the old Palave of the Abbot, better known as the Old Place of the Abbey in Paisley. He became the 20th member of Paisley Kilwinning in 1749 and second master in 1752 and 1753. By all accounts, he was a real trouble maker, forming gangs to fight other young people at local fairs. Probably due to his wild character, he joined the army with the rank of Captain and took some of his gang to America. He fought in the Siege of Louisbourg during the 7 Years War (French and Indian War in the United States) where he was killed in 1758. Bro. Boyd Porterfield Esquire of that Ilk joined just after the 7th Earl as the 24th member and became the fourth master in 1755 and 1756. He gave his name to the lands of Porterfield at Renfrew and acquired many lands including Duchall at Kilmacolm. One of his sons, Lt William (Boyd) Porterfield joined Paisley Kilwinning in 1763 while serving with the Duke of Cornwall’s Light Infantry (32nd Foot) which was based in Edinburgh Castle. The following year the regiment was posted to America where he was killed in action. Two of his daughters married brethren from the lodge. Bro. Boyd built Ducall House and also had Porterfield Mansion in the High Street, Glasgow near Ingram Street which had been built in the middle of the 16th century. It was demolished in 1870 when the High Street was widened. He died in 1795 and is buried in the family vault in Kilmacolm.

Good News to start the Year At the Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Georgia last October, the assembled brethren voted overwhelmingly to officially extend recognition to the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of the Jurisdiction of Georgia which had been formed just after the 1865 US Civil War for African Americans. The recommendation was made by the Committee on Recognition, there was no discussion, and the proposed recognition passed "by a landslide." It’s great to see recognition extended to the brethren in the southern states. Te Georgia Grand Lodge has the Johnstone link—George Houstoun, cousin to our founding Houstoun family, was Grand Master in 1790-92.

The lodge met in the Cross Keys Hotel, High Street at this time. Slightly surprising is that no Free Gardeners were masons in the above group, but all Oddfellows were members of 242. Possibly because the Gardeners were a successful, benevolent organisation whose demise was the introduction of the NHS. Bro. John Gilmartin JW became master of 242 then founding master of 1042 in Linwood.

Chief Inspector Donald Swanson Many interested in the Jack the Ripper will have heard of Inspector Fred Abberline (played in various films by Michael Caine and Johnny Depp). Abberline was to join Zetland Lodge No. 511 in Londonin 1889, the year after the murders. However, his superior and the Senior Investigating Officer was Chief Inspector Bro. Donald Sutherland Swanson. He was born in Thurso, in the very north of Scotland and joined St Peter’s Lodge No. 284 in Caithness. He joined the Metropolitan Police in 1868, then the CID and became a very successful detective. After the murder of Annie Chapman (at the time believed to be the third Ripper murder), the case was taken away from the Whitechapel CID office so that it could be handled by the central CID at Scotland Yard. [For fans of 'Ripper Street', the original investigating officer was Inspector Edmund Reid. Another future Mason, he would later join Ixion Lodge No. 2501 in Essex].
ness – St John's Lodge No 141 in Thurso and Lodge St Fergus No 252 in Wick. St John's was the preserve of lairds, landowners, lawyers and merchants, and although artisans were admitted they had little say in the manner in which the business of the lodge was conducted. It was thought that a new lodge was mooted with the possible failure of a trades benevolent group. When the artisans were unable to persuade St John's Lodge to fill the gap, they decided to form a breakaway association, to be called St Peter's Lodge. The private collection of Bro. Donald Swanson has been entrusted to the National Emergency Services Museum (NESM) in Sheffield by the former detective’s family. The treasure trove lay undiscovered for decades until Swanson’s descendants discovered an enormous collection of over 150 individual objects; paperwork, photographs, letters, drawings and personal belongings.
In the 1800s there were two lodges in Caith-

Question What does the word ‘hele’ mean in the obligation? Answer The origin of the word hele comes from the Anglo Saxon helan, meaning ‘to cover or conceal’, and its significance to the Initiate is that, by its use in the Obligation, not only does he undertake to not to reveal the secrets of Freemasonry, he undertakes to cover them up or conceal them. The use of the word prepares him for the Masters warning – cautiously to avoid all occasions which may inadvertently lead him to disclose any of those Masonic secrets which have been entrusted to his keeping. Chaucer and much earlier writers used it. The first Masonic reference is found in the Cooke MS written in the early fifteenth century “That he can hele the counsel of his fellows in the Lodge and in chamber and in every place where masons be.” In the early days, undoubtedly, ‘hele’ rhymed with ‘mail’ or ‘male’ and for this reason, we suppose, some printed rituals include an instruction to pronounce the word in that way; but the matter was not quite as simple as that. When the editors of the early eighteenth century ritual brought together those three words, ‘hele’, ‘conceal’, ‘reveal’, it is quite obvious that they meant them to form a sequence known as rhyming assonance, and the words ought still to rhyme, a practical purpose was intended to fix these three words in the memory. The original intent of the phrase was undoubtedly that all three words should rhyme. Then, if they are to be intelligible, the pronunciation ‘hale or hail’ is a nonsense – “Hale, consale and never revale” is meaningless. Therefore despite what the rubric says in some rituals, the correct pronunciation is undoubtedly - “Hele, conceal and never reveal” ! Thanks to the PGL Warwickshire.

The Lost Symbol In November ad December , Sky TV debuted a new adaptation of Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol, based on the follow-up novel to the smash hit The Da Vinci Code. One of the most anticipated novels of all time, The Lost Symbol sold a million copies the first day it was released in 2009 and stayed on the bestseller list for 29 weeks. The novel also touched off a sudden explosion of interest in Freemasonry in many part of the US, which provides a mysterious backdrop to the plot of the story. In fact, the term “Freemason” ended 2009 among the top 10 search terms on Yahoo, and during one sixweek period, was the subject of 127 majormedia stories, including NBC’s Date-

line and Today shows. The new television series stars Ashley Zuckerman as the Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon and Eddie Izzard as the Masonhistorian Peter Solomon. Just don’t expect it to kick up as much controversy for Masonry as The Da Vinci Code did for its mysterious fraternal orders: “I have enormous respect for the Masons,” Brown told the Associated Press. “Here is a worldwide organization that essentially says, `We don’t care what you call God, or what you think about God, only that you believe in a god and let’s all stand together as brothers and look in the same direction.’”

How Important is Masonic Education? This interesting jewel from the Transvaal Masonic Educational Institution, an organisation consecrated in 1897, and (I believe) no longer in existence.
