September 18, 1793, marked a pivotal moment in the construction of the United States Capitol. On this day, President George Washington, alongside the Grand Master of Maryland, Joseph Clark, carried out the ceremonial placement of the cornerstone through a Masonic ritual. What's truly fascinating is the continuity of tradition - many tools and paraphernalia from that day are still used in the placement of foundation stones for significant structures in the Washington area.
