Not illustrated.1866 Excerpt: ... m In 1782, the Lodge of Fortitude, at Maidstone in Kent, came to a resolution (in imitation of many foreign lodges) to render service to mankind in general, by some singular transaction more than the bulk of masonry in England are accustomed to do, viz.: The maritime situation of Kent, a country, from its nature and situation in an especial manner liable to accidents by water, and to which, in consequence of these circumstances, the Humane Society owes its rise! An institution so coincident with all the finest feelings of humanity, and so immediately interesting to the public welfare, by saving the lives of an order of men, who in an eminent degree contribute to the public weal, in a maritime and commercial state like ours; who occupying their business in the great waters, are consequently more liable to accidents upon it. The Lodge of Fortitude, maturely considering this, have distributed numbers of hand-bills through the county, containing the methods of treatment prescribed by the directors and medical assistants; generously offer an addition to the rewards paid by that society, when life is restored, in unsuccessful attempts (provided the mode of treatment laid down by the society has been used), to the publicans or other persons who receive the bodies readily into their houses; and to the person who first brings the news of an accident to the nearest medical assistant. In short, the lodge propose to pursue every method which will enable them to be more useful in saving the lives of their fellow-creatures. Permit me now, my worthy brethren, as father of the lodge (being instituted by me in 1779) to address you on so laudable and praise-worthy an undertaking, being the first attempt in England of a free-masons' lodge rendering general utility to mankind. ..
