1919. The Masonic Temple of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Past Eminent Sir and Reverend Jackson has compiled this volume from the minutes and records of the Commandery and other authentic sources. To commend a century of unbroken existence, a permanent and accessible record was made of the Constitution, growth, struggles and successes of the Commandery, and due honor rendered to the memory of the Valiant and Magnanimous Knights, whose labors and sacrifices have culminated in the splendid prosperity which characterizes the century's close.
