Where would Henry Coil, Albert Mackey, Albert Pike, and Carl Claudy be if THEIR Grand Masters had silenced the
1WHAT IS A WOMAN’S ROLE IN FREEMASONRY TODAY?
Something I received in the mail today from the California Grand Lodge. Unfortunately, there is no associated web address for it that has this information on-line (yet).
The event sounds like an interesting one, I may try to make it to the bay area to take part in it.
When the shill is on the other foot.
