Visitors' Right To See The Warrant.

VISITORS' RIGHT TO SEE THE WARRANT .

IN" the United States there are twelve Grand Lodges , which claim that any of their members , in visiting a foreign Lodge , have the right to see the warrant of the Lodge they are about to enter . Twenty-five jurisdictions have no regulation on the subject , and seven sanction tbe

procedure by custom , while two , the District of Columbia and Pennsylvania , forbid the removal of the charter from the Lodge room nnder any circumstances . Mackey holds that every Mason , who desires to visit a Lodge for tho first time , is entitled to an inspection of the

warrant , or charter , nor , he claims , shonld any Mason ever consent to visit a strange Lodge until he has had an opportunity of examining it . We incline to the belief , notwithstanding the opinion of the able Masonic jurist , that the rule in the District of Columbia and Pennsylvania

is correct , and one that will be endorsed by Canadian Masons . It is true that , in many American jurisdictions , the warrant is usually kept in a leathern case on the Master's pedestal , and that , therefore , it is not inconvenient to send it out with a Board of Trial , but , in Canada , we

generally have our charters of Constitution heavily framed , and hung up in tho Lodge room , making it irksome to remove , even if desirable , at tho bidding of every visitor . Without regard , however , to the convenience or inconvenience of removal , we think that , on general principles ,

the warrant should not be removed from the Lodge room proper—not even to the ante-room—although , iu some jurisdictions , tho ante-room is included in the precincts of tho Lodge proper . Members of foreign jurisdictions , who desire to visit , do so of their own volition . It ia an act of

their own creation . They have always ample opportunity , prior to the meeting of a Lodgo , to find out whether it be duly and regularly constituted or not , and we , therefore , maintain that the responsibility , if any , is on the visiting Brother . On the other hand some jurisdictions reverse

the order of things , and insist that all visitors should produce their Grand Lodgo certificates . Thero is at least some reason in this regulation , for we are far more likely to be imposed npon by fraudulent Masons , than Masons are to be endangered by irregularly constituted Lodges .

Visitors to jurisdictions , other than their own , should be willing to accept the statement of a Board of Trial , composed , as it generally is , of three or more Past Masters ,

that the Lodge they represent is duly constituted under proper authority , and not a bsgus organisation assembled together for the purpose of deceiving transient craftsmen . —Toronto Freemason
