Out of all the societies that exist in the world, there is perhaps no other considered to be as mysterious as the fraternal organization of the Freemasons. Ostensibly a group founded to regulate the qualifications of stonemasons and their interaction with authorities and clients, the society is shrouded in claims of conspiracy and the occult due to its hermetic nature and religious aspects. Originally part of Bailey's Series of Practical Masonry , this 1866 work is intended to furnish a Master of the lodge with all the information he might need to know about concerning his position, role, and duties within freemasonry. Contents include: Designs Upon the Trestle Board , Getting into the Harness , Opening and Closing the Lodge , Dignity and Tact , Dispensing Light and Knowledge , Attending Grand Lodge , Public Demonstration , The Furniture of the Lodge , Vitalizing the Lodge , The Trail of Offences , The Secretary and Treasurer , etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
