TO HIS INEFFABLE POTENCY,
EDWARD LIVINGSTON,
General Grand High Priest of the General Grand Royal Arch
Chapter of the Celestial Canopy of the United States of
America:
This feeble attempt at a practical illustration of the Beauties of
Freemasonry is humbly dedicated, as a suitable tribute to the Man
and the Mason, whose matchless wisdom, so admirably adapted to the
genius of that institution of which he is the exalted head in this thus
honored country, has successfully foiled its most formidable assailants
by the unanswerable arguments of his Dignified Silence.
