WHAT MASONRY MEANS
An address by A. W. Houston of San Antonio,
Grand Orator of the Masonic Grand Lodge, be-
fore the assembly at Columbus June 24, 1810
The usual conception of the un-
intiated is that Masons are bound
together by secret obligations in a
selfish brotherhood,for their own
individual advantage and benefit,
and that the members of the order
make sacrifices of principle for the
advancement of each other, to the
neglect or non observance of the
rights of those not so fortunate as
to be members of the organization.
No greater mistake could be made
with reference to this ancient and
honorable Order.
Masonry is claimed to be ancient,
"More ancient than the Golden
Fleece or Roman Eagle." Our
traditions say that it was founded
by King Solomon/and that many
of its rites and ceremonies were in-
augurated and practiced by the
great and good through all the ages
from then until now.
Whether these traditions be ac-
curate or not, is of slight conse-
quence to us today, because we all
know, £ts certainly as we know the
history of our own country, that
Masonry, as it exists today, ante
dates by many generations the civi-
lization of which we are so proud to
claim as our own. So Ion# as we
can trace through more modern
history the fact that the greatest
and purest of the rulers of the civi-
lized world have at times laid aside
the scepter to participate in its cere-
monies and practice its precepts, in
those peaces where Masons meet up-
on the level, act by the plumb and
part upon the square, we must ac-
knowledge that it has achieved a
place and recognition as a factor ia
the advancement of civilization and
the elevation of the human race.
I shall notenter into an extended
recital of the history of Masonry or
relate the many beautiful traditions
which have come down to us from
more or less authentic sources,how?
