The Principles of Masonic Law: A Treatise on the Constitutional Laws, Usages and Landmarks of Freemasonry

In presenting to the fraternity a work on the Principles of Masonic Law it is due to those for whom it is intended that something should be said of the design with which it has been written and of the plan on which it has been composed. It is not pretended to present to the craft an encyclopedia of jurisprudence in which every question that can possibly arise in the transactions of a Lodge is decided with an especial reference to its particular circumstances.
