  Laying the foundation stone

  You may be more familiar with its current name, Bewley’s Hotel Ballsbridge
  
  Edit: “The Square and Compasses are really the most well known Freemason symbol. The meaning behind it is quite literal, with the square representing morality in that Freemasons need to ‘square [their] actions by the square of virtue with all mankind’.
  The compass then measures the ability to wisely conduct actions within certain boundaries. In other words, together the Square and Compasses remind Freemasons to explore their desires and passions without stepping outside the realms of moral behaviour.”

  The ‘Star of David’ or more properly Solomon’s Seal, is another symbol, and harks back to the Temple of Solomon.
  I wonder how many guests even notice as the enter the hotel?

  The bazaar was held Easter 1882 in the Dublin
  Exhibition Hall (1865) on Earlsfort Terrace where the concert hall now stands. It's aim was to raise funds for the Masonic School in Ballsbridge... where the Clayton Hotel is now.
