Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The laws which govern the Institution of Freemasonry are of two kinds, unwritten and written, and may in a manner be compared with the “lex non scripta,” or common law, and the “lex scripta,” or statute law of English and American jurists. This book explains both kinds and provides deep insights on the ways masonic lives happen or don’t happen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The division of wrongs, by the writers on municipal law, into private and public, or civil injuries and crimes and misdemeanors, does not apply to the jurisprudence of Freemasonry. Here all wrongs are crimes, because they are a violation of the precepts of the institution; and an offense against an individual is punished, not so much because it is a breach of his private rights, as because it affects the well-being of the whole masonic community. In replying to the question, "what are masonic crimes?" by which is meant what crimes are punishable by the constituted authorities, our safest guide will be that fundamental law which is contained in the Old Charges. These give a concise, but succinct summary of the duties of a Mason, and, of course, whatever is a violation of any one of these duties will constitute a masonic crime, and the perpetrator will be amenable to masonic punishment. But before entering on the consideration of these penal offenses, it will be well that we should relieve the labor of the task, by inquiring what crimes or offenses are not supposed to come within the purview of masonic jurisprudence. Religion and politics are subjects which it is well known are stringently forbidden to be introduced into Masonry. And hence arises the doctrine, that Masonry will not take congnizance of religious or political offenses. Heresy, for instance, is not a masonic crime. Masons are obliged to use the words of the Old Charges, "to that religion in which all men agree, leaving their particular opinions to themselves;" and, therefore, as long as a Mason acknowledges his belief in the existence of one God, a lodge can take no action on his peculiar opinions, however heterodox they may be. In like manner, although all the most ancient and universally-received precepts of the institution inculcate obedience to the civil powers, and strictly forbid any mingling in plots or conspiracies against the peace and welfare of the nation, yet no offense against the state, which is simply political in its character, can be noticed by a lodge. On this important subject, the Old Charges are remarkably explicit. They say, putting perhaps the strongest case by way of exemplifying the principle, "that if a Brother should be a rebel against the State, he is not to be countenanced in his rebellion, however he may be pitied as an unhappy man; and, if convicted of no other crime, though the loyal Brotherhood must and ought to disown his rebellion, and give no umbrage or ground of political jealousy to the government for the time being, they cannot expel him from the lodge, and his relation to it remains indefeasible"

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Masonic Parliamentary Law, or Parliamentary Law Applied to the Government of Masonic Bodies: A Guide for the Transaction of Business in Lodges, Chapters, Councils, and Commanderies Much experience in conducting the business of Masonic bodies, or in seeing it conducted by others, has convinced me that a treatise which should, in perspicuous language, pre scribe the rules for the government of Lodges, Chapters, or any other assemblies of Masons in their Masonic character, could not fail, if properly executed, to be of service to the Craft. It is evident that when one is, for the first time, called to preside over a Lodge of Freemasons, he must come to the performance of that important duty, either with no knowl edge whatever of the rules of order that govern the proceed ings of deliberative bodies, or with a familiarity with those rules only that are exclusively derived from the ordinary parliamentary law.
