By the 1850s publishers had rapid and reliable access to the whole country in addition time spent travelling by rail created a demand for material to read. The growing number of freemasons were part of an expanding middle class who travelled and read and these factors help to explain why within three years of each other two new weekly masonic newspapers were launched The freemason in 1869 and The freemasons� chronicle in 1872. It is also surely no coincidence that the first weekly masonic publications were launched after the removal of the last of the stamp and paper taxes in 1855 and 1861 respectively commonly referred to as the taxes on knowledge. As Brake points out after these taxes were abolished there was a rise in daily and weekly serials. The newspaper reported freemasons� involvement in national events for example in the issue for the 27th October 1877 there is a notice concerning the Freemasons Indian Famine Fund. The regular column �Masonic and general tidings� always tended to include items of general interest such as short reviews of good restaurants in London and details of the Lord Mayor�s show. By the 1880s the newspaper had a special column which reviewed the plays on in the London theatres. A further indication of the leisure activities and interests of those who read the newspaper. The newspaper always included reports of lodge meetings with a section specifically for London lodges. These reports often give a detailed account of an event or a meeting listing individuals who attended and can be a very useful source of information about London freemasons and masonic life. Similarly the obituaries some of which are very detailed and include pictures provide insight into an aspect of a man�s life which in many cases has remained hidden. Between 1873 and 1885 the Rev. Adolphus Frederic Alexander Woodford acted as editor. Woodford was a formidable masonic scholar and drew around him some of the great masonic scholars of the time. As a result articles by such men began to appear in the newspapers pages and helped to ignite a lively debate about the accepted views of masonic history. The newspaper was reflecting the interests and concerns of a growing number of freemasons who were believed in a more disciplined and erudite approach to masonic history. In 1886 a year after Woodford stepped down as editor Quatuor Coronati Lodge No. 2076 was formed with the aim of being the premier research Lodge and Woodford was one of its founding members. The newspaper demonstrated that a new approach to the history of freemasonry was in demand by the brethren and the success of the research lodge which still exists today built on the foundations which the paper had laid." - See Fraternal Communications: The Rise Of The English Masonic Periodical by Rebecca Coombes 2009 . George Kenning. The son of an East End oyster seller Kenning realised the potential of the market: he not only manufactured the costumes but sold a range of products from his shops across Britain. He set up a mail order business which operated across the British Empire and was keen to develop new markets in the USA. He became a media magnate and advertised in his own widely read newspaper: The Freemason. He even extended the brand by becoming closely involved in developing new Masonic orders all of which needed special costumes and props. London: Bro.

A secure text block now preserved in modern paper wraps. " The Adonhiramite Rite is a Masonic system consisting of 33 grades or degrees The founding of the Adonhiramite Rite is traditionally attributed to Louis Guillerman Saint-Victor a French Freemason who in 1781 published the first significant work on the rite entitled "Recueil Pr�cieux de la Ma�onnerie Adonhiramite" Precious Compilation of Adonhiramite Freemasonry. This rite combines Templar Rosicrucian and other esoteric influences into a unique Masonic structure. The work of Louis Guillemain de Saint Victor had an extremely positive impact to the point that in 1785 that is just 3 years after the release of the first part and in the same year as the release of the second it was already being published in French even in Philadelphia USA. This work became a canonical reference of the Adonhiramite Rite and with it the rite itself achieved wide dissemination and expansion in Europe becoming the main rite of the Grande Oriente Lusitano and being exported to its colonies in Africa Asia and the New World including Brazil. In France it became together with the structure proposed by the General Grand Chapter the standard of �Masonic Orthodoxy�." - See Wikipedia A Helyopolis [i. e. Paris] , 1787 . paperback

"Wellins Calcott saw in Freemasonry something more than a museum of Medieval relics and more than a set of convivial clubs and undertook to write a rational or philosophy on the Craft becoming thereby the first of a line of greatly distinguished Craftsmen in which were to stand Hutchinson Preston Oliver Mackey. He was born at a date not discoverable in available books; in the Minutes of one Lodge he is described as �a native of Shrewsbury county of Salop� in another as from �Salop in Cheshire.� At some date in probably the late 1750's he published A Collection of Thoughts a volume half of quotations and half of his own meditations a type of book dear to readers in that period. He had 1600 subscriptions for it before printing; and it went through five editions. In 1769 and with 1200 subscribers he published A Candid Disquisition of the Principles and Practices of the Most Honorable society of Free and Accepted Masons etc. Oliver described this book so simple so gentle in spirit and with few obvious displays of the classical learning behind it �the gem of the period.� Kenning describes Calcott: �Indeed he may fully be called the father of the Masonic philosophical and didactic school.� - See An Encyclopedia of Freemasonry.

"Captain George Smith was a Freemason of some distinction during the latter part of the 18th century. Although born in England he entered the military service of Prussia being connected with noble families of the kingdom. During his residency in the kingdom he was initiated in one of the German Lodges. On his return to England he was appointed Inspector of the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich and published The Universal Military Dictionary in 1779 and Bibliotheca Miliaris in 1783. Captain Smith in 1783 published a work entitled The Use and Abuse of Freemasonry: a work of the greatest utility to the Brethren of the Society to Mankind in general and to the Ladies in particular. The interest to the ladies consists in some twenty pages in which he gives the "Ancient and Modern reasons why the ladies have never been accepted into the Society of Freemasons" a section the omission of which would scarcely have diminished the value of the work or the reputation of the author. The work was published without the sanction and the Craft being wiser than their representatives in the Grand Lodge the edition was speedily exhausted. In 1785 Captain Smith was expelled from the Society for "uttering an instrument purporting to be a certificate of the Grand Lodge recommending two distressed Brethren." - See Masonic Network.

Still a well preserved copy of this scarce book. William Alexander Laurie was originally a stocking-weaver and afterward became a bookseller and stationer in Parliament Square Edinburgh and printer of the Edinburgh Gazette. He was appointed bookseller and stationer to the Grand Lodge of Scotland and afterward Grand Secretary. In 1804 he published a book entitled The History of Freemasonry drawn from authentic sources of information; with an account of the Grand Lodge of Scotland from its Institution in t7S to the present time compiled from the Records; and an Appendix of Original Papers. Of this valuable and interesting work Lawrie was at one time deemed the author notwithstanding that the learning exhibited in the first part and the numerous references to Greek and Latin authorities furnished abundant internal evidence of his incapacity from previous education to have written it. The doubt which naturally arises whether he was really the author derives great support from the testimony of the late Dr. David Irving Librarian to the Faculty of Advocates Edinburgh. A writer in the Notes and Queries Third Series iii 366 on May 9 1863 stated that at the sale of the library of Doctor Irving on Saturday March 28 1B62 a copy of Lawrie's History of Freemasonry was sold for �1. In that copy there was the following memorandum in the handwriting of Doctor Irving: The history of this book is somewhat curious and perhaps there are only two individuals now living by whom it could be divulged The late Alexander Lawrie "Grand Stationer" wished to recommend himself to the Fraternity by the publication of such a work. Through Doctor Anderson he requested me to undertake its compilation and offered a suitable remuneration. As I did not relish the task he made a similar offer to my old acquaintance David Brewster by whom it was readily undertaken and I can say was executed to the entire satisfaction of his employers. The title-page does not exhibit the name of the author but the dedication bears the signature of Alexander Lawrie and the volume is commonly described as Lawrie's History of Freemasonry. There can be no doubt of the truth of this statement. It has never been unusual for publishers to avail themselves of the labours of literary men and affix their own names to books which they have written by proxy. Besides the familiarity with abstruse learning that this world exhibits although totally irreconcilable with the attainments of the stocking-weaver can readily be assigned to Sir David Brewster the philosopher see Lyon's History of the Lodge of Edinburgh page 55. Lawrie had a son. William Alexander Laurie he had thus for some unknown reason changed the spelling of his name who was for many years the Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Scotland and died in office in 1870 highly esteemed. In 1859 he published a new edition of the History with many additions under the title of The History of Freemasonry and the Grand Lodge of Scotland with chapters on the Knights Templar Knights of Saint John Mark Masonry and the Royal Arch Degree." - See Encyclopedia of Freemasonry .

1944rif. 053400ALS Manuscript 1944. No Binding. Very Good. Original two manuscript ALSs and one manuscript autobiography including 30 lines. 1 p.; 2 p.; 2 p. In Ottoman script. Only one letter with date and letterhead of 'Vecih Bereketoglu'. In his first letter dated April 26 1944 he talks about the painting and oil painting he is working on. He states that he has met Fazil Bey since 1923. Another paper includes a two-pages autobiography. Second ALS includes 19 lines. Hasan Vecih Bereketoglu was a Turkish painter influenced by impressionistic aesthetics who took painting lessons from Halil Pasha and at the Julian Academy in Paris. He is one of the painters of the 1914 Generation. He was the son of Kazasker Bereketzade Cemil Bey. Since his father was a civil servant he completed his primary education in Egypt. He completed high school in Rhodes. He studied at Istanbul Darülfunun Law Faculty. He took his first lessons in painting from Halil Pasha between 1916 and 1920. He became one of the names that supported the establishment of the Fine Arts Union. He was in Paris between 1922-1923 and continued at the Art Academie Julian. Upon his return to Turkey in 1923 he became the Chairman of Kadikoy Halkevi. When he moved to Ankara in 1943 he became the Presidential office manager. During these years he produced still life works. He produced such works by adopting the impressionist understanding of his art life in general. It was seen that he was influenced by Halil Pasha Hikmet Onat and Nazmi Ziya Güran in his works on Istanbul. He was mostly remembered as an 'open-air painter' with his paintings with the views of Fenerbahçe Kurbagalidere and Göksu. In these paintings he did not see the light element as the element that determines the color and presented it with the reflection it's created in nature. ALS Manuscript unknown
