| land does not argue with any part of
, this special proceedings; therefore he
is in answer to the above matter that
has been published in this proceedings
of June IS.
I. Sir Knight Isaac Holland never
proclaimed that the grand court of
Cyrenne was ever under the grand
commandry of the State of Pennsyl-
vania or any other STATE in the United
States. We will agree with Sir VIM.
H. Miller and Sir Vim. F. POWELL +.
G.. recorder of the grand commandry
of the State of Pennsylvania, that the
grand court of yrenne was not under
the grand commandry of Pennsylvania,
Sir Knight Isaac Holland would not
adhere to a rel of females being
under the grand commandry of the
State of Pennsylvania or any other
State, We believe that Sir Knight
Holland has too much ritualiStic brain
than to have a rel of females to be
adopted by any grand commandry.
2. A resolution by Sir Knight Hol-
land IN the grand commandry in the
year, 1891, was opposed by Sir Knight
Isaac Holland in the grand command
ry at a special conclave in regard to
the grand court of Cyrenne for its rec
ognition in behalf of the Knight Tenn
plars. The matter was fully discussed
and debated upon by Sir Knights J D.
Kelley, P. G.. c.; VIM. Fl. Miller, w.
L. Underwood, Peter Robinson, Gill
bert Johnson, P. R. E and the follow
ing resolution OF Sir Isaac Holland was
amended by Sir w. F. Powell, grand
recorder. Look at our proceeding OF
1890 on page III as follows-resolu-
ton passed by the united grand COM
mandry of the State of Pennsylvania.
