Synopsis

My prime object in republishing this sketch of freemasonry, written by Martin R. Delany, M.D., a half century ago, (prior to my birth), is not a mercenary one. Though, as I have attempted it, (at the suggestion of an old family acquaintance, the owner of an original copy, which, on a visit at my old home in Ohio,) I hope to realize some pecuniary compensation therefrom. The friend referred to, with others, heartily endorsed the undertaking, believing it will be beneficial and inspiring to those who may read it.
