Description

The Sons of England Benevolent Society was a secret society of English Protestants, founded in Toronto, Canada, during the year 1874. Its purpose was to unite Englishmen for mutual support, social and moral uplift, and to offer financial security to them and their families should they fall upon hard times. In addition, the society aimed to preserve and propagate Anglo-Protestant culture and influence throughout the British Empire. It was especially focused on preserving the Empire's connection with the mother-country. The brotherhood established a network of lodges throughout Canada, South Africa, and Rhodesia, and collaborated with the Orange Order and the Order of the Sons of St. George (its "sister society" in the United States) on a number of issues. Its membership was composed of tens of thousands of workingmen, as well as many men of political influence, including newspaper editors, city mayors, aldermen, chiefs of police, politicians, military officers, and members of parliament. This book was originally written in 1891 by an early, and prominent member of the society, Dr. John S. King. The work not only includes the early history of the society, including its origins and the establishment of the first Grand Lodge, but also biographical sketches of its founding members. The book explores the reasons as to why the founding members felt the need to form such a society, and how they went about creating the first lodge, as well as some of the difficulties they had to overcome in its formative years, This historic work offers a fascinating insight into a little-known secret society that wielded significant influence in Canada and southern Africa for almost a hundred years.
