Excerpt from Letters and Addresses on Freemasonry
This kindness of Mr. Gridley was never forgot ten by my father; I trust it never will be forgotten by his children. From that day forth, while Mr. Gridley lived, he was the intimate friend, per sonal and professional, of my father. He died in 1767. My father often resorted to him for friend ly counsel, and, as he was grand master of the lodge, once asked his advice, whether it was worth his while to become a member of the society. In the candor of friendship Mr. Gridley answered him, No, adding that by aggregation to the soci ety a young man might acquire a little artificial support, but that he did not need it, and that there was nothing in the Masonic institution worthy of his seeking to be associated with it.
So said at that time the Grand Master of the Massachusetts Masons, Jeremy Gridley; and such, I have repeatedly heard my father say, was the reason why he never joined the lodge.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the controversial world of Freemasonry, exploring its history, rituals, and influence on American society in the 19th century. The author, a staunch critic of the organization, exposes the dark underbelly of Freemasonry, arguing that its secret oaths and rituals promote a dangerous and subversive agenda. The book's central narrative revolves around the mysterious disappearance and presumed murder of William Morgan, a man who sought to expose the secrets of the Freemasons. The author uses this event as a springboard to examine the organization's alleged involvement in political intrigue, corruption, and even violence. Through a detailed analysis of the organization's inner workings, the book highlights the potential dangers of secret societies and the ethical dilemmas posed by oaths that conflict with civic duty and personal conscience. This book offers a compelling and often disturbing account of the evolution and impact of Freemasonry in a nation struggling to define its own identity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
