BISHOP DUDLEY's LETTER.
Bishop Dudley's letter was as follows ::
It is q cause Of real regret TO me that
official duty makes it impossible for me
TO be with you the day after tomorrow.
In Richmond l was born and from my
honored father learned the love Of Ma
sonry. 1t would be q genuine pleasure
TO me TO meet my Masonic brethren of
my native town and 10 bear my testi-
mony to The beauty and the substantial
moral value OF the Scottish Rite degrees.
No intelligent man can become a Master
Of the Royal Secret 1922 without learn
ing the need of such q revelation 10 be
the guide OF his life. Therefore, feel
interest in the progress of our order,
because, while perhaps the many may
find in it but an opportunity for foolish
display. the wise few are by it taught
and comforted anl led on TO higher
things.
Believe me, my dear sir, fraternally
yours, I. U. DUDLEY, 33o.
The reunion Of Scottish Right Masons
just concluded here has been a great
success.
