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.

Funds from this appeal will be dedicated to providing scholarships to deserving students in their communities. Unlike some previous “Blue Envelope” campaigns, there will be no Third-Party administering the program. Consequently, 100% of the donations will be directed to The Texas Masonic Charities Foundation Scholarship Fund for distribution to qualifying Lodges. The Texas Masonic Charities Foundation, Inc. a 501(c) (3) non-profit corporation, is the primary charitable organization affiliated with the Grand Lodge of Texas and works with local Masonic Lodges to help distribute funds. TMCF continues a program started in 2007 which allows businesses and individuals to support local Lodge programs with tax-deductible contributions to TMCF that are designated to specific charities. SPRING 2019 TheMESSAGE Texas Masonic Charities Foundation is the vehicle that local lodges can use today to compound their efforts at CONTENTS the local level to continue our great fraternity’s tradition of charity. In 2019 as your Grand Master I am expressing my faith in you by appealing to you directly, without a third-party A WORD FROM THE vendor that many times retains a major portion for administration.
