In about Feb 2009 our Lodge was presented with a large and most elegant sword from a Brother, for whom our Lodge had recently

conducted a Masonic funeral service. With the permission of the Worshipful Master I was afforded the opportunity of presenting it to

the Tiler of our Lodge. In the course of the presentation I made an allusion to โ€˜symbolismโ€™ of the Tiler and the sword, asking of the

Brethren assembled, โ€œIn our Sacred Volume, where does the first sword appear?โ€™ One of more learned Brothers noted it was in the

Book of Genesis upon the occasion of the Expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. He was, of course, correct

(Genesis 3:24).
