This Is A New Release Of The Original 1914 Edition.

This Monitor has been prepared in obedience to that resolution. The book is the child of my heart and mind. A love for the cause inspired its preparation. It goes to the craft with my earnest prayers that it may cause a more general and closer study of the beautiful ceremonies of the first three degrees, which are the foundation of all true Freemasonry. I dedicate the book to the Masons of Arkansas, who have so often and so kindly honored me above my merit.

1914. A history of operative and speculative Freemasonry, from their origin until the present - York and Scottish Rite. Together with a history of the Order Eastern Star and of the Mystic Shrine. A concise, readable, yet comprehensive history of the order, shorn of abstruse expressions, high-sounding phrases, or extravagant and fanciful statements.
