masons and catholics in the same building

 32°
 33°
 St. Anthony of Padua and Lisbon
section with several masonic emblems (male and female), many from the 1950s
 after All Saints and All Souls
These crypts have some Catholic dead entombed. Mayfield area has many Italians, and certainly not all are Catholics, but the tendency is there; and for many ethnic Catholics there are grave visits at the beginning of November. In sections of the mausoleum where there are many masonic emblems on the crypt marble, the decorations are absent. 
O Signore, fa' di me uno strumento della tua pace!
O Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
This packet has a picture of Padre Pio, and the beginning of the Prayer of St. Francis in Italian, and a rosary.
