In this matter. It will require the
united efforts Of all who are interest
ed in the success Of Templarism to
make this a day long to be remem-
bered among our number. I hope
that each Jurisdiction will keep me
informed as to their intention to par
ticipate in this grand affair. ! shall
be pleased to hear from any Sir
Knight and to furnish any informa-
ton he may desire.
Yours fraternally, Howard w. Pinn,
