The founders of the Shrine Walter Fleming William Florence Florence, recalling the conversations at the Knickerbocker Cottage, realized that this might well be the vehicle for the new fraternity. He made copious notes and drawings at that initial viewing and on two other occasions when he attended the ceremony, once in Algiers and again in Cairo. When he returned to New York in 1870 and showed his material to Dr. Fleming, Fleming agreed. ...

Circa 1880: by Harriet A.E. Jackson (Mrs. John Browning), 19th century, British. Oil on Canvas, 7 x 10 inches, signed lower right. Paintings on Masonic themes are quite rare and few have been painted by trained and skilled artists as has this. The frame is the original, 2 inch wide, dark oak, Arts and Crafts period. (The Frame is not shown) Ms. Jackson is listed in Benezit as a painter of historical subjects. The detail work in this painting is meticulous, (the object in the foreground is a lit cigar) and the fez is particularly appealing.[/quote]
