FREDERICK W. HAMILTON'S HISTORY OF MASSACHUSETTS FREEMASONRY

M. W. Frederick W. Hamilton, Grand Secretary and Honorary Past Grand Master of Massachusetts, had for many years in progress a history of the Craft in Massachusetts. At the time of his death in 1940 it remained unfinished, and a number of prominent Grand Lodge permanent members such as M. W. Joseph Earl Perry and R. W. (later M. W.) Samuel Wragg concluded that the material was simply not in a publishable condition. A manuscript of this work, along with a looseleaf notebook of annotations, has been in the possession of the Grand Lodge Library ever since.

The following text is a corrected version of the manuscript. Corrections are merely typographic; no attempt is made to confirm assertions or rectify inaccuracies. Also bear in mind that this material was written at least 80 years ago, and lacks both immediacy and contemporary sensibility - it was written in another time, by someone from that era. No attempt is being made to "clean up" the text in that respect.
