Abstract: | These Sketches will help one to get intimately acquainted with one of the essential institutions of an Order whose presence here added considerably to the historical importance of our Islands and, coinciding as it did with that wonderful period of European revival of all the arts and letters, contributed in no small way to the 'renewal and growth of our culture. Hence these "Sketches" are intended as a small acknowledgement of the services the Order of St. John of Jerusalem has rendered to these Islands as well as of the more direct part it has played in fostering and shaping the natural humanitarian instincts of their inhabitants. |
