BOB NEELY GETS HIS MASONIC DEGREE HERE

When Bob Neely took his Third Degree in Masonry last night, he was presented with a Masonic pin which had belonged to his grandfather, J.E. Neely, thus adding another generation to a long line of Neelys who have become Masons. The Neelys may also claim distinction in Masonry as Bob's grandfather's grandfather was Warden in the Washington, D.C. lodge during the same time that George Washington held the office of Master. During this particular period, Lafayette was a visitor of the lodge.
