Meeting of the Improved Order of Old Friends in Finsbury-Square, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Meeting of the Improved Order of Old Friends in Finsbury-Square, 1844. Ceremony in London:the several lodges passed in procession, each accompanied by its banner and band of music...the appearance of the banners very splendid, there being no lack of gold and silver upon these huge floating sheets of emblazonry...There were in the entire procession nearly 2000 persons, 74 banners, and 30 bands of music; and the moving masses of spectators were astounding....The " Order" is an improved Friendly Society, one of those institutions which, when founded upon correct principles, and prudently conducted, are beneficial both to their members and to the community at large. Like most of that which is excellent in English habits, these societies are of very ancient origin. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I
