Philadelphia. June 26. [1/2 column giving a detailed
description of procession of the Free and Accepted Masons to
church, and of service on anniversary of Feast of St. John
the Baptist.]
Both before and after sermon, psalms were sung suitable to
the occasion.
After Divine service was over, the procession returned in
the same order to the Lodge room to dinner; the musical
bells belonging to the church, and a Band of Musick before
them, at the same time playing the tune of the Enter'd
Apprentice's song. the whole ceremony was conducted with
the utmost decorum and solemnity, and, as we hear, afforded
great satisfaction to the inhabitants in general. . . [1/4
