Washington’s Masonic Correspondence
Amazon | Barnes & Noble
by Julian F. Sachse

Washington’s Masonic correspondence as found among the Washington papers in the Manuscript department of the Library of Congress, affords an insight of the great esteem in which Washington held the Masonic Fraternity, of which since his early days he had been an honored member.

This is further shown by his great courtesy to the Brethren, in his replies to their addresses, no matter whether they were from a Grand or Subordinate Lodge. In this collection, were also found some of the original drafts of Washington’s replies, together with copies of the various masonic addresses and letters to him.
