She bent her sharp old eyes upon him studiously for a moment. Then she shook her head. "No," she answered slowly. "I do not think that the Signorino looks like a Freemason." "A Jew, then?" "Mache! A Jew? The Signorino!" She shrugged derision. "And yet I'm what they call a Protestant," he said. "No," said she. "Yes," said he. "I refer you to my sponsors in baptism.
James Knox Polk, of Tennessee, a rigid Presbyterian, an uncompromising Democrat, and a zealous Freemason, was another Representative who subsequently became President.
The driver understood this and I think we made it clear that whatever happened he was to be at Birs Nimrûd and wait for us. So we started off on foot. When we were well under way, I asked Brown, who is a freemason, if he was endeavouring to reach the understanding of the native by means of some mystic Eastern ritual unknown to me.
"There is the boat, and provisions sufficient," said the freemason, in a low tone; "you will have to pass the sentries on the rocks: but we can do no more for you.
