HOTCHKISS. 33° HON. COPYRIGHT APPLIED FOR JUNE 1. 1916 PD Books PD Commons PD Books PD Commons 7^^^: ^ ^^^:Ay<^.\y3 */i^W- preface In the preparation of this book, the author has sought solely to present an accurate and connected history of the rise and extension of Scottish Rite Masonry in Texas. The information which it contains has been compiled chiefly from the Masonic records in the archives of Philip C. Tucker, for free and frequent access to which the author is indebted to the widow and family of the late Grand Cornpiander. The only virtue that is claimed for this work is its cor- rect portrayal of the life of the Rite in Texas. The author, himself, at the time of writing, the oldest thirty-third de- gree Honorary Scottish Rite Mason in Texas, has drawn readily upon his more or less extensive fund of informa- tion concerning the Rite in this State, not for the purpose of writing down his recollections or beliefs concerning its establishment and progress, but merely for the sugges- tion of lines of investigation that carefully and definitely pursued might lead to the acquisition of data about the authenticity of which there could be no shadow of doubt. More than twelve months were spent in this undertak- ing. The author visited frequently the several Consis- tories of Texas and going once to Washington to examine the records of the Supreme Council for information un- obtainable here.

  • Episode 20 Prince Hall
    Prince Hall , The history Prince Hall, our founder, was one of our great Americans, a worthy Grand Master associated with our first Grand Lodge and its expansion. His name is carried by our masonic organizations in the United States, and by thousands of freemasons who regard themselves as descendants from the Grand Lodge of England, from which he received his authority more than two centuries ago. We in America celebrated in 1976 the two hundredth anniversary of our Declaration of Independence. This is also the two hundred and first (201st) anniversary of the founding of Prince Hall Masonry. It is a monument to Prince Hall’s life, career and leadership. It was a significant event in Freemasonry on March 6, 1775, when Prince Hall and fourteen other men were initiated into Freemasonry through Warrant No. 459, which is still in our possession. John Batt, who was of the 38th Foot Regiment of the British Army, having enlisted in 1759 and learning of the American cause, re-enlisted in its army. The enlistees were Prince Hall, Cyrus Johnston, Bueston Slinger, Prince Rees, John Canton, Peter Freeman, Benjamin Tiler, Duff Ruform, Thomas Santerson, Prince Rayden, Cato Speain, Boston Smith, Peter Best, Forten Horward, and Richard Titley. The writer has this record. A permit was issued for these freemasons to meet as African Lodge No. 1, and they became the first Black freemasons in the United States. Prince Hall enlisted and served as a soldier in the 2nd and 6th Regiments of Massachusetts. In this connection, George W. Williams, historian, wrote in 1884, "that he saw hard service we know by the record of the two regiments he served in, always distinguished for steadiness and valor.

    Early Newspaper Accounts of Prince Hall Freemasonry S. Brent Morris, 33°, g\c\, & Paul Rich, 32° Fellow & Mackey Scholar Fellow OPEN TERRITORY n 1871, an exasperated Lewis Hayden1 wrote to J. G. Findel2 about the uncertain and complicated origins of grand lodges in the United States and the inconsistent attitudes displayed towards the char- I tering in Boston of African Lodge No. 459 by the Grand Lodge of Eng- land: “The territory was open territory. The idea of exclusive State jurisdiction by Grand Lodges had not then been as much as dreamed of.” 3 The general 1. Hayden was a former slave who was elected to the Massachusetts legislature and raised money to finance John Brown’s raid on Harper’s Ferry. His early life is described by Harriet Beecher Stowe in her book, The Key to Uncle Tom’s Cabin (Jewett, Proctor & Worthington, 1853). 2. Findel was a member of Lodge Eleusis zur Verschwiegenheit at Baireuth in 1856 and edi- tor of the Bauhütte as well as a founder of the Verein Deutscher Freimaurer (Union of Ger- man Freemasons) and author in 1874 of Geist unit Form der Freimaurerei (Genius and Form of Freemasonry). 3.

Brent Morris & Paul Rich theme of Hayden’s correspondence with Findel was that African-American lodges certainly had at least as much—and possibly more—claim to legiti- mate Masonic origins as the white lodges did, and they had been denied rec- ognition because of racism.4 The origins of African-American Freemasonry in the United States have generated a large literature and much dispute.
