Robert Morris

Rob’t Morris, L. L. D.. the veteran traveler and Masonic lecturer, addressed the Grand Ledge lodge last Saturday evening on “Freemasonry in the Holy Land.” Sunday Eve. he spoke at the Congregational church oo the evidences in the holy land of the truthfulness of the Bible. He was attentively listened to by a large audience, which was deeply interested in what he said. Although not an eloquent speaker, yet his plain, earnest and comprehensive language left an excellent impression. His discriptlon of portions of Palestine corresponded in every essential particular with the teachings of the Bible, and afforded every one present something to think about. Mr. Morris expressed himself well pleased with the courtesy extended to him by our people generally.
