Author Description

Excerpt from A Pilgrimage to the Rockies: A Souvenir of the 25th Triennial Conclave; Knights Templar, Denver, Col., 1892 Heartfelt greetings, O Knights Templar, as ye come a noble band, On a crusade o'er the desert, now become a blossoming land, Where snow peaks their crest uplifting, like the domes of white Mosques stand. As crusaders, desert - faring, saw some green oasis smile, Colorado bids you welcome - after many a weary mile, Do us honor, give us pleasure, - rest with us a little while!
