THE ORDER OF THE TEMPLE .
To THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE EARL OF LIMERICK , Very lliah and Eminent Great Prior of the United Rt Hi / ions and 2 Iilitnry Orders of tho Te-nplu and of St . John of Jerusalem , Palestine , Rhodes , and Malta , in England and Wales , and the- Dependencies thereof .
The hnmblo Memorial of the Sir Knights of tho Province of Bombay in Provincial Priory assembled , Shewefh , —That your Memorialists view with pleasure and approbation the restorations recently made in the Constitution of the Order by the newly-enacted statutes of tho Convent General , and emphatically desire to express their approval of tho fair and straightforward manner in which those restorations wero proposed for the acceptance of tho Grand Conclave .
i our Memorialists aie of opinion that tho omission of the erroneous term " Masonic " from the til loot' the Order was most , desirable . They believe that tho Order has never really been a Masonic Order , for , if it had been , entrance into it would havo been possible for all in possession of the previous Masonic degrees . But such has never been the case , for reception into our Order has always been impossible for
all who have been unable truly to declare that they trust for salvation in onr Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ , a qualification which excludes many Masons . Your Memorialists therefore consider that the adoption of such names and titles as "Encampment , " " Eminent Commander , " " First and Second Captains , " & c , & c , & c , was erroneous , and had no
historical foundation , and that tho restoration of the names aud titles " Preccptory , " " Preceptor , " " Constable , " " Marshal , " wc ., Ac , is most judicious , because it is founded upon historical authority . Such restorations , thoy believe , will increase the dignity of our Order by emancipating it from tho anomalous position into which it had beci thrust , and in which it was erroneously made to appear to bo an
offshoot or dependent of Freemasonry , instead of tho parent of the Craft in Europe it really was . Your Memorialists' opinion is founded upon tho following facts , that is b ;> say : —The Templars , during their residence in the Holy Land , were received into tho Syrian Fraternities , which , under the name of Mysteries , taught tho principles of moral truth and virtue , the liberal arts and sciences , aud a more definite
idea of the being and attributes of God than was possessed by the uninitiated . Tho Templars taught these mysteries to those whom they affiliated , but divested tho ceremony of all its heathen rites . These mysteries aro identical with those of Freemasonry , and there is no record of the existence of Freemasonry iu Europe previous to the Institution of tho Order of the Temple .
Youv Mgvuovi ' . vlists consider i \ w . - . iWinv >« of Past Rank , ns it hereto . fore existed , to be most judicious , as tending to enhance the value ol the elective offices of tho Order . Tho officers of the Grand Coneiuvi and Provincial Grand Conclaves wero very numerous , and , with ( he exception of the Treasurers , they were nll ' the nominees of I ho Grand Master and Provincial Grand Commanders , and though many of t ¦ : n had not , attained the dignity of Eminent , Commander , and their dutdea
