As the name of the lodge suggests it was
formed to attract members and former members of the
scouting movement. Although the founder of the
movement was not a Freemason, permission was
obtained to use his name, which was especially
appropriate in view of Lord Baden Powell's
association with South Africa, especially as Colonel
in charge of the British force in Mafeking during
the siege.
The lodge originally met in Parktown North but
subsequently moved to Freemasons' Hall in Parktown.
Candidates did not come forward as readily as was
hoped but the first Masters have worked hard to put
the lodge on a sound working basis, and their
efforts are bearing fruit.
Exsequi Lodge meets at Park
Lane in Johannesburg, South Africa on the fourth Monday of
February (Election Meeting), April (Installation Meeting),
June, August, October and November. Exsequi is a Freemasons
Dining Lodge and masonic guests are most welcome.
