ΤΟ

BROTHER WILLIAM PRINGLE,

Of the Canongate Kilwinning Lodge, Edinburgh,

WHOSE RESEARCHES INTO THE CHRONICLES OF SCOTTISH MASONRY

HAVE BEEN DISTINGUISHED BY

LEARNING, ASSIDUITY, AND CHARACTERISTIC MODESTY,

WHOSE EXEMPLARY ZEAL HAS SUSTAINED MASONIC PRINCIPLE,

AND WHOSE FRIENDSHIP IS PRIZED BY THE INDITER OF THESE FEW LINES AS A PEARL BEYOND PRICE,

THIS VOLUME OF

The Freemasons' Quarterly Review,

(WHICH, WITH EVERY PRECEDING ONE, HAS BEEN ENRICHED FROM THE STORES OF HIS GIFTED MIND)

IS GRATEFULLY AND SINCERELY DEDICATED.

1843.
