Nuts To Crack For Ancient Landmark Sticklers.
NUTS TO CRACK FOR ANCIENT LANDMARK STICKLERS .
If I differ in opinion from an older member of the Craft than my
self , I am told I disturb the ancient landmarks of the Order . If in Grand Lodge one brother cannot reply to the arguments of another , he accuses his opponent of a desire of overstepping the landmarks of the Order . If the shining light who protests he never read the magazine , writes a good sheet of foolscap to complain that his speech at the Pig and Whistle Lodge was omitted ( from your magazine ) he
also tells , in his case , the ancient landmarks are in danger . There are four tribunals to which Masons are amenable , viz ., the ancient Charges and Constitntions of the Order ; the by-laws of their Lodges ; the Board of General Purposes , and tho ancient landmarks of the Order . The last is the most terrible of all , as no one knows what thoy are , nor what fchey mean , while every man silences his r . eighbour by an appeal nofc to throw clown the landmarks of the Order .
" Mr . Editor , —Toll us , tell ns where these landmarks are planted ? whom they affect ? what is their use ( or abuse ) ? and auy other information you please , for I , for one , am heartily tired of having that old fogey—the ancient landmarks—thrust down my gullet on every occasion . If ifc is a figure of speech , let some of your correspondents explain . But excuse me if I add , don't tell me , in asking these queries , I have trodden down any of the aucienfc landmarks of the Order , for I take them to be , until better informed , perfect myths . " X . Y . Z .
Bro . Corner Stone : —I camu across the above communication in the Freemason ' s Magazine and Masonic Mirror , London December 9 , 1859 , page 507 , but neither the editor nor auy of his contributors and correspondents replied to it , or took the least notice thereof . Now , this Masonic ancient landmark puzzle ought to be solved . 1 think thafc
tens of thousands of brethren would like to know what the said ancient landmarks of the Order are . I uever could fiud any one in Boston who could tell mo what the ancient landmarks are . Cannot one of the New York Masouic luminaries enlighten the Brotherhood upon this important question P J . N .
