    I found this Masonic document among a pile of 18th century papers and letters. One side has to do with King Solomon and the other is sections of a Masonic song that I found was used in the mid-18th century. It's on handlaid paper. I think the code is a date code: J4h8 D5861? 4f S16H59y. I've looked at a webpage for 18th century Masonic dating code website but couldn't match it up. Any ideas?

      It just looks like a name and address to my eye. It looks like the vowels are numbers and perhaps one or two consonants might be too.
