Excerpt from The True Masonic Chart, or Hieroglyphic Monitor: Containing All the Emblems Explained in the Degrees of Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft, Master Mason, Mark Master, Past Master, Most Excellent Master, Royal Arch, Royal Master, and Select Master
Councils, Chapters and Lodges in the United States. The Au thor is well aware that in many parts of our country, which have been highly favoured with Masonic light and knowledge, a work of this kind would be of minor consequence, but there are many sections which have not been thus highly favoured, and u here it would tend to advance the true interests of the In stitution.
The Author would improve this favourable opportunity in calling upon all Christian Masons to lend their aid in elevating the Institution to its proper level, by influencing every Mason bv example, exhortation and persuasion, to live up to the moral precepts which are inculcated in it.-at the same time to guard them against relying on any merit in their own works as a title to that Rear beyond the grave, which is prepared for the chil dren of God, -and to point them to Hm, who is the War, the T now and the Lira - to the Lion of the tribe of Judah, to the great Warcuuut of Israel, to our divine Ranztuza, whose name is the onlv name which is given under haven whereby men can be saved - who has made an atonement for sin by the shedding of his own blood, and who has promised that whosoever believeth on Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
