An end of the evening toast to Ann Arbor Commandery No. 13 on the last few moments of it’s sesquicentennial:

“To Ann Arbor Commandery, may it last until that glorious day when “the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains”; when “swords shall be beaten into plough shares and spears into pruning hooks”; when “nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more”; when the reign of the Blessed Emmanuel, the Prince of Peace, the Great Captain of our Salvation, shall become universal and eternal.”
