His chair was in use fo»- 117 years and now it is in a glass case and is taken out only for special ocassions. There are pictures of this chair and the Alexandria lodge on the wall in the Blue Lodge and one unconsciously makes the com parison. Three framed original charters hang in the Chapter room. The one of the Council of Royal and Select Masters is so very old that the paper is yellow and most of the writing is faded so that it cannot be read. The other two charters are of the Royal Arch, issued in 1826 and the Scottish • the town.
