FREEMASONRY.
World Needs Its Principles, Says Prince. FOLLOWING ROYAL FOOTSTEPS (Received July 19, 1.20 p.m.) LONDON, July 17. The Prince of Wales was welcomed by 2000 Freemasons at the meeting of the Devonshire . Provincial Grand Lodge at Plymouth. The Prince was reminded that King William IV. was initiated to the craft in 1787. While serving on a ship at Devonport King Edward VII., as Prince of Wales, attended a Masonic meeting in the same building in 1874, while the Grandmaster, the Duke ol Connaught, made a similar visit in 1917. The Prince of Wales said that he hoped to follow in the footsteps of his Masonic relatives. The principles of Freemasonry—brotherly love, relief and truth—were more required all over this turbulent world than at any time in history.
