Description: THIS IS ONE OF THREE RATHER LARGE SUPREME LODGE BADGES / PINS THAT WAS BROUGHT TO ME FROM AN ESTATE. THIS ONE SHOWS THE HOLY BIBLE IN THE CENTER OF THE TRINGLE. ENGRAVED ON THE BACK IS THE COPY RIGHT 1874 S.S. DAVIS S. C. SUPREME LODGE. THIS IS ONE OF THREE RATHER LARGE NIGHT OF PYTHIUS BADGES / PINS THAT WAS BROUGHT TO ME FROM AN ESTATE. THIS ONE SHOWS A SET OF KEYS IN THE CENTER OF THE TRINGLE. ENGRAVED ON THE BACK IS THE COPY RIGHT 1874 S.S. DAVIS S. C. SUPREME LODGE. I THOUGHT IT WAS PART OF THE MASONIC LODGE, BUT HAVE COME TO LEARN THAT IT IS FROM THE NIGHT OF PYTHIUS. AN ADDITIONAL ITEM I WAS GIVEN AT THE TIME INDICATED THE INDIVIDUAL WAS A MEMBER OF THE SCOTTISH RITE OF PORTLAND, OREGON DATED 20TH DAY OF NOVEMBER 1943 (SOUTHRN JURISDICTION). I LEARNED THAT THESE BADGES WERE MADE AS A MEANS FOR S. S. DAVIS TO MAKE SOME MONEY FOR HIS DISTRICT (OR PERHAPS HIMSELF) AND SOLD THEM TO THE DIFFERENT NIGHT OF PYTHIUS LODGES. I HAVE ALSO REDUCED THE PRICE OF THE BADGES AS THEY APPEAR TO BE SILVER OF NICKEL.
