    Dark Lanthorns were small hand held lanterns designed toreveal or conceal light. Made with a single door or shutter toregulate the emission of light while keeping a candle lit, theywere often used to hide ones identity when one did not want

    their identity known. Often carried by both those who abided bythe law as well as those with unscrupulous intentions, DarkLanthorns were also used in theatrical performances during the18th century. Because of their history and use, the phrase DarkLantern became known as a secretive person or society overtime.

    London Encyclopedia of 1829:Lantern, Dark, has only one opening which may be closed up when thelight is to be entirely hid, or opened when there is occasion for the light to

    discover some object
