The Lodge Crest
The Royal Armory (Burke) listsCochrane of Ochiltree, Scotland with the following description:
Ar. a chev. gu. betw. three boars’ heads erased az. a bordure of the second.
The shorthand used in the entry translates to:
A Silver or white shield, a red chevron between three boars heads torn from the body, coloured blue and a border of red. Crest - a Silver or White horse walking.
In heraldry argent (Silver or White) represents sincerity or peace, the chevron represents the roof of a house and signifies protection or faithful service, and the boars head hospitality and the horse readiness for duty.
Masonry is the science of life in a society of men, by signs, symbols and ceremonies; having as its basis a system of morality and for its purpose the perfection and happiness of the individual and the race.
