The Chairs of No . 39 , Exeter .

r rMIESE three chairs , now used by the lodges assembling JL in the Freemasons' Hall , Exeter , were originally the property of the " St John the Baptist Lodge , " Exeter , formed in the year 1732 , about which particulars were

afforded in "THE MASOXIC IU . USTKATEI ) " for October , 1901 . They are for the W . M . and Wardens , and were manufactured during the 7 th decade of the 18 th Century , being now " black with age , and the gilding on the mottoes and other parts is dim from the same cause . " The illustrations are to be found
