Caliburn Lodge 785

Voynich Manuscript; a book with illustrations written in an unknown writing system. Parchment on which it was written has been carbon-dated to early 15th century (1404-1438 CE) and is thought to have been created in Italy during Italian Renaissance. Manuscript took its name from Polish second-hand bookseller Wilfrid M. Voynich, whose existence was discovered in 1912. Book contains a total of 240 pages, but some pages are thought to be missing. Text is written from left to right, and many of the pages contain drawings or diagrams. Some pages are foldable. Manuscript was studied by many professional and amateur cryptographers, including American and British code breakers during WWII. However, manuscript has never been clearly deciphered, and the meaning and origin of its contents remain a mystery. For this reason, Voynich Manuscript has excited popular imagination and become subject of novels and speculation. None of hypotheses put forward in last 100 years have been independently verified. In 1969, Voynich Manuscript was donated by Hans P. Kraus to Yale University's Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library. Although there are still people trying to decipher this manuscript, no one has been able to decipher its mystery and language. - Subscribe for Detailed Post - #archaeohistories

@UGLE_GrandLodge Are there any Lodges in London that are meeting and having a Festive Board in September of 2025?

We only take this picture once every seven year full Officer Line rotation. My, how we have grown in the past seven years. @UGLE_GrandLodge @GrandLodgeOhio Looking forward to seeing where we all are in 2030.

The ⁦@WorcsMasons⁩ annual cathedral service at Worcester today, such an amazing setting.

What a wonderful Provincial Cathedral Service. Well done to the new team you all did am amazing job, and with the Cathedral choir in full voice it was a pleasure to be part of.

The Square Magazine #masonic update RT: @westkentmasons… #freemason #freemasonry #masons... Ten of the Provincial Executive undertook a “Ninja”visit to surprise James Marsh, our DGSupt, as he became Master for the third time. A super ceremony of pass…

A visit to Broad Forde 8547 at Bradford On Avon this evening. A superb initiation with the light blues getting involved with various pieces of ritual throughout the ceremony. A fun filled festive board followed. Pleasing to see the Lodge has two more candidates in the pipeline

The second informal meeting of the Acre Encampment took place this morning in the underground St John's Chapel of the Hospitallers

Happy Thanksgiving from all the Brethren from @785Lodge @GrandLodgeOhio

Today @785Lodge celebrates 20 years of being a Lodge as we received our Charter/Warrant from @GrandLodgeOhio on October 18th 2002. The Lodge tonight will celebrate by attending a dinner and scotch tasting @skeletonroot Cheers to Caliburn. Pax, Caritas, et Concordia!

Ohio has proven since the late 1700s to be an open community for fostering #Freemasons & we now boast of one of Masonry’s most vibrant communities in the country. The story of how Ohio's brotherhood came about has roots in our nation’s very foundation. bit.ly/3v8prVx

Initially used as a meeting place by the #Masons of Lodge No. 772, the Victorian-styled Pollokshields Burgh Hall of Maxwell Park, Glasgow, Scotland was built in 1890. Today it remains in use as a venue for events.

What better way to prepare for the new Masonic year than by planning a visit to The #GrandLodgeMuseum & Library? Located in Rickly Commons on the Springfield Campus of the Ohio Masonic Home, visits are available by appointment. bit.ly/3nsbc9E

One of our @785Lodge members received this document from a person in England. It once belonged to a Masonic museum in Ireland. It’s a demit for Br. James Hughes of Grey Abby No.173 dated April 9th 1855. @FMH_Ireland @GrandLodgeOhio

@785Lodge is sorry they had to miss the event today with Amity Lodge No.5 opening their time capsule today. One of our members located this Masonic patent from their lodge in 1849. @GrandLodgeOhio The last picture shows the top three officers of the Lodge who signed at the bottom
