Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Indian Freemasonry In the beginning God created heaven and earth. - Genesis. Remove not the ancient landmark which thy fathers have set. Solomon. Speculative masonry is so far interwoven with religion as to lay us under the strongest obligations to pay that rational homage to the Deity, which at once constitutes our duty and our happiness. It leads the contemplative to view with reverence and admiration the glorious works of creation and inspires them with the most exalted ideas of the perfection of the divine Creator. Samuel Cole. We also have a religion which was given to our forefathers and has been handed down from father to sou. We worship in that way. It teaches us to be thankful for all the favors we receive, to love one another and be united. - Red Jacket. It is more than probable that the diversified customs, institutions and religions of the several nations of the world are less dissimilar in their origin than is often imagined. The differences arose in the progress of time, the shifting scenes of climate, condition and event. But the original ideas of existence and the laws that pertain to all created things are pretty much the same among all the tribes of mankind. - Westropp, Ancient Symbol Worship.

Download or read book Native American Freemasonry written by Joy Porter and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freemasonry has played a significant role in the history of Native Americans since the colonial era—a role whose extent and meaning are fully explored for the first time in this book. The overarching concern of Native American Freemasonry is with how Masonry met specific social and personal needs of Native Americans, a theme developed across three periods: the revolutionary era, the last third of the nineteenth century, and the years following the First World War. Joy Porter positions Freemasonry within its historical context, examining its social and political impact as a transatlantic phenomenon at the heart of the colonizing process. She then explores its meaning for many key Native leaders, for ethnic groups that sought to make connections through it, and for the bulk of its American membership—the white Anglo-Saxon Protestant middle class. Through research gleaned from archives in New York, Philadelphia, Oklahoma, California, and London, Porter shows how Freemasonry’s performance of ritual provided an accessible point of entry to Native Americans and how over time, Freemasonry became a significant avenue for the exchange and co-creation of cultural forms by Indians and non-Indians.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study in American Freemasonry: Based Upon Pike's "Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite," "Mackey's Masonic Ritualist," "the Encyclopaedia of Freemasonry," and Other American Masonic Standard Works So soon has a new edition of this volume become necessary that we must content ourselves with correcting such minor (typographical) errors as have been brought to our notice. It is a pleasure to be able to say that the reviews of this Study, so far published, in this country, in Canada, in South America, and in Europe, have been uniformly favorable. Catholics have hailed the book as a necessary and useful publication. Even Freemasons have been constrained to acknowledge its objectivity and calmness of tone. Thus a Masonic writer in the Missouri Historical Review says: "A Study in American Freemasonry... is based upon Pike's 'Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite' Mackey's works, and publications of other Masonic writers. It is written in a calm, argumentative manner, giving authorities for all the allegations that the author makes, so that no offense is felt by a Mason while reading it, though he may see the mistake of the author in the conclusion given by him." This "mistake" our critic specifies as follows: "The majority of American Masons adopt the York Rite of Masonry leading from the Blue Lodge through the Chapter to the Commandery of Knights Templar. In the Scottish Rite leading from the same Lodge to the 33 rd degree there is more of philosophic teaching, but Masons would reply to the assertions of the author, that in neither branch is there taught any concealed religion, philosophy or science, but that these are all fully set forth in the monitorial or esoteric Masonry, the esoteric Masonry being merely the forms of initiation and not a changing or addition to the monitorial part."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Masonry This work is fraternally dedicated to you. In your kindly charge it is placed, hoping that when it has been measured by the plumb, square and level, it will be found good work, true work, square work, and just such work as you need and may pass to be used in the building up of the real Masonic structure. The field of study among the aboriginal races of the new world is intensely interesting, and so much so that the author would fain do more and more in that field, could he have the time at his disposal, for he firmly believes that the Craft of this country owes it to itself to have this work done. He also believes that facts may yet be found out there, which will make our Masonry look like a Broadway store building beside an old Egyptian temple. Astonishing and curious things of the past not only fascinate and inter est, but lure one on to seek to dispel the shadows cast about them and to view them in the light by which those people worked.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Introduction of Bogus Freemasonry in the United States of America and Texas Among Colored Masons Masonic Lodge and that it was connected with General Gages Military Regiment at Boston Massachusetts on the 0th of March 1775 and that this White Masonic Lodge in General Gages Military Regiment, they said, held a charter from the Grand Lodge of England, and replying to that unwarranted statement made and published by the leaders of the spurious Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, for the Grand Lodge of England has repeatedly said that they did not have any ma sonic lodge in General Gages Military Regiment when that regiment was in the United States and the question has time after time been ask ed the members of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and particularly those in Massachusetts that claim to know so much about it to give the name and the number of that masonic lodge that Prince Hall, Boston Smith and Thomas Sanderson was made master masons in that was connected with General Gages Military Regiment which was then in the United States, and these wiley fellows and Masonic ih tervators have never been able to give us any information as to what the name or even the number of this Masonic Lodge that they say was in General Gages Military Regiment. And inasmuch as no person has ever been found that could furnish any genuine information about this matter there is no doubt but the statements that have been paraded around the country about this matter were bare-faced, willful and ma licious falsehoods, and in the absence of any proof to confirm their state ments it is very safe to say that Prince Hall, Boston Smith, Thomas Sanderson and their associates simply went to bed at night and dream ed that they had been made Master Masons and got up next morning with their minds in a high state of hallucination and really thought it was so, when as a matter of fact there was nothing, nothing in it, and they simply drew on their imaginations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Standard History of Freemasonry in the State of New York: Including Lodge, Chapter, Council, Commandery and Scottish Rite Bodies The effort has been made to write a veritable history, not a mere summary of volumes of proceedings; to write a volume which would give any reader an idea of the story of Freemasonry in the Empire State, and at the same time be so purely and suf ficiently Masonic as to warrant the attention of the most devoted member of the fra ternity. Comparativelv little has been said of the history of the ritual, for it was felt that that subject could not, with any degree of fullness, be properly treated in a work of this kind - if, indeed, it were wise to treat it at all in a printed book - and mere details of legislation have been passed by with, at best, but brief mention. Yet no attempt has been made to ignore any thread which gave the slightest color to the mass, and all events of moment, such as the troubles of 1823 or 1837, the Morgan excitement, and the like, have been fully and carefully considered.
