Lodge of Perfection Supports DeMolay

 

This past Saturday Grand Lodge was filled with excited young men who were eager to enjoy a day of fraternalism! On December 10, Massachusetts DeMolay held a Grand Master’s Class in honor of Illustrious and Most Worshipful Harvey J. Waugh, 33°. With help of Boston-Lafayette Lodge of Perfection, DeMolay was able to hold an impressive and successful One Day Class!


The day began at 9:30AM with the State Master Councilor, Alexander Dyer, and his team of Officers and State Ritualists leading the degree. 

 

Artifacts from the Second Floor

 

The Samuel Crocker Lawrence Library on the second floor of Grand Lodge is home to an incredible collection of historical items. The collection, which is curated by Bro. Walter Hunt, recently became the home of a 200 year old document with the signature of our Past Grand Master Isaiah Thompson.

 

In January of 1937, the sitting Grand Master, Claude L. Allen, received a letter from the sitting Scottish Rite Sovereign Grand Commander of the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, Melvin M. Johnson. In the letter Illustrious Johnson, who served as Grand Master for Massachusetts from 1914 to 1916, elaborates on the significance of the Thompson document.
