1764. This volume contains an introductory sketch on Royal Arch Masonry from 1743-1893. Royal Arch Masonry was believed to have been begun in the year 1740, but whether in Scotland or England, evidence is lacking. This dissertation discusses many aspects of Royal Arch Masonry. Also found in this volume is an exact facsimile of Dr. Dassigny's serious and impartial enquiry into the cause of the present decay of Freemasonry in the kingdom of Ireland. Humbly addressed to all the brethren accepted of or before and since the Constitutions. To which are added such instructive remarks as may be found useful to revive the honor of that Antient Craft. As likewise, by way of appendix, will be inserted the old and new regulations of the London Constitutions, by the consent and approbation of the Grand Lodge of Ireland, and dedicated to the right worshipful and right Hon. the Lord Viscount Allen, Grand Master of this kingdom. The whole adorned with a curious cooper plate suitable to the Order and design. This enquiry is written in Old English and due to its age, some pages are spotty or faded.
