Provision was made in three other resolutions, for the kind of book and number to be published, for the funds nec essary, and for the manner of distribution and sale. The Grand Master appointed the Grand Secretary as chairman, and Bros. Irving Todd and Henry R. Wells as the other members. In the pursuit Of their arduous labors, the committee have freely consulted a number Of similar publications in the Grand Secretary's office, and have had the advice of eminent brethren at home and abroad. Whether or not they have succeeded in presenting an acceptable work is for the brethren of Minnesota to decide. They do not flatter themselves that it is a perfect production by any means, but they do hope it will be a great help to Masters of Lodges and other officers and brethren, especially to young Masons, in acquiring a knowledge Of the law and usage in this jurisdiction. As our Grand Lodge has been teaching the Webb work and lectures for the past thirty - two years, most Of the monitorial instruction in this book has been selected from Webb's Freemason's Monitor, revised by Bro. Rob Morris in 1859, as the best adapted to our ritualistic work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
