Polish National Lodge (No. 778) was founded in London by anti-Tsarist Russian and Polish exiles in 1846. Originally 778, the number was amended to 534 when lodges were renumbered in October 1863. In 1920 the then last Polish member passed away and for many years the lodge had no Polish brethren. However, the lodge retained its traditions and today about a third of the lodge membership claim Polish roots. Note bookplate designed by James Jervis Blomfield (1879-1951), Canadian artist and designer best known for his design of the coat of arms of Vancouver.
