A group of gentlemen were gathered
on the street, corner the other day and
some one noticed that nearly every one
wore the emblem of some secret society.
This led one of the older men to apeak
as follows: “I never belonged to bat
one secret society and that was the Kn
Klnx kian. I waa living in Atlanta at
the time and a friend of mine invited
me to join * Shakespeare literary club.
I went with him and when we opened
the door of the “dob" room I thought I
eras in hell or so ate place equally dan
gerous. The black masks, gowns, and
other paraphronelia of the den inspired a
feeling of awe in my youthful breast.
Up went my hand and I took the obli
gation. I tell you it was a binding nue
too. I never took any active part in the
work of the organization bat I was in
Iimrongh sympathy with their, aims.
Bat what 1 started to tell abont was
the early days of Masonry in Thomas-
Villa. When ti.D city waa a village,
ttiere waa great interest in the work of
that order which was the only secret
society hero. The beat people in
town belonged to it, and attended more
regularly than they did chnrch.. They
used to be summoned to tlieir meeting
by the blasta of a horn. The -sunud of
that dd Masonic horn was as familiar
to me aa the dinner bdl."
In tliia connection it will be of inter
est to know that Jndgi Angnstin H.
HanadI of this city is perhaps the oldest
Knight Templar in the state. He has
has always been aa enthusiastic Mason
and took tho higher degrees many yean
ago. He joined the Knight* Templar in
Macon about 1810 when that common-
dery waa the only one in the state.' Ail
of the men who were present at hia ini
tiation, and ao far aa he knows, all who
were member* of the oommandery at
that time have poised into tlie great
yond. He ia therefore the oldest Knight
Tempter in the state. At thq last anna-
