(Jjipt. Julian, besides being a mason, was a member (life) of the American Medical Association and the National Geographic Society. He was a God fearing man, respectful, and he has many friends in the Philippines as well as abroad. It is a request made by his relatives that should any one identify the exact burial place, they shall be very much obliged so that a more decent inter ment could be done on his remain: as a mason and good Christian. In view of the above qualifications and character, Wor. Bro. Cornelic Dato Julian is hereby declared a hero and patriot by our lodge. VISITATIONS Anent the policy of the Most Worshipful (hand Lodge ol the Philippines lor a closer relationship between sister lodges, the incumbent Master ol Cavite Lodge No. 2, Wor. Bio. Crcsencio CL Sanliano. accompanied by some of his officers and members, conceived the idea of inter-lodge visitation in the Southern Islands. During the period 1-1-23 October 1963, they visited Cebu Lodge No. 128 and Mactan Lodge No. 30 at Cebu City and Iloilo-Acacia Lodge No. 11 at Iloilo City. The Brethren of those Qi'ceii Cities received them royally if not fraternally. They performed and participated in the conferral of degrees in those lodges. Thev were treated to guided touts to some interesting and historical spots in those cities and the following were very instrumental in making their visits a most enjoyable one: Wor. Bros. C. J. Huang and (ius Sanios of Mactan Lodge No. 30, Wor. Bro. I.. L. Makayan and Samson Ong of Cebu Lodge No. 128, and Wor. Bros. R. J. Jeruta and Oil Ottaviano of Iloilo-Acacia Lodge No. 11. According to those visited, they say this was the first time that Brethren from Luzon Lodges have visited lodges in the Southern Islands. Likewise, the Brethren of Cavite Lodge No. 2 realized that as the sun at meridian heights imparts wattilth, beauty and gladness over the face of the Southern Islands, so Masonry, preaching and practicing the principle of "brotherhood of man under the fatherhood of God" brings forth to humanity the blessings of mutual affection, harmony and happiness that cement all men of goodwill into a lasting fellowship. Il is felt that this visitation has strengthened the brotherly tie that unites all Masons, until time shall be no more. 268 The Cabletow
