The correspondence between the Ecossais lodge at Toulouse covers
only two years, but provides very interesting insights regarding
Masonry in the 18th century, revealing that in 1750 there was a
High Degree body at Toulouse practicing either a Trinitarian
Ecossais system of the Parisian Ecossais des Trois I.I.I. and we
see how these were replaced by the 'Ancienne Maitrise' of Bordeaux.
There followed a clearly non-masonic quarrel that originated in
rivalry between actors of the Toulouse Opera! The return of the
Grand Master, who had been absent, enabled the crisis to be
resolved and the lodge's unity restored. There is also a letter
revealing recruitment difficulties facing the lodge and requesting
some statutory modifications; a fresh proof of the regard for
regularity that determined the attitude of the Elus parfaits and
their daughter lodges.
