Details
By Brother HENRY JOSIAH WHYMPER, Past Deputy District Grand Master Punjab. With an Introduction by Bro. William James Hughan, Past Senior Grand Deacon of England. Edited by Bro. George William Speth, P.M.
One of the most original, remarkable, and suggestive volumes issued of late years. Bro. Whymper, C.I.E., is an ardent Freemason who clings to the Christian origin and character of the Fraternity, and believes that distinctive feature of its origin has never been altered by direct authorisation of the premier GrandS Lodge He has the courage of his convictions, and having an extensive Masonic Library, is always able to give “chapter and verse” in confirmation of his statements. I am one with him as to origin, but not quite as to present usage. To no brother are we more indebted than to the author, who, though residing in India, has been most generous in his endeavours to spread the benefits of Masonic literature as widely as possible through the medium of Lodge No. 2076, London.
London: George Kenning, 16 and 16A Great Queen Street, Lincoln’s Inn Fields, W.C. MDCCCLXXXVIII. Presented by Bro. G. Taylor.
