PREFACE.
The following work has been prepared by authority of the Supreme
Council of the Thirty-third Degree, for the Southern Jurisdiction of the
United States, by the Grand Commander, and is now published by its direction. It contains the Lectures of the Ancient and Accepted

Rituals of the Degrees. It is hoped and expected that each will furnish himself with a copy, and make himself familiar with it; for which purpose, as the cost of the work consists entirely in the printing and binding, it will be furnished at a price as moderate as possible.

Whatever profits may accrue from it will be devoted to purposes of charity.
