We were amazed at the huge banquet halls, Grand East and Grand Chapter rooms. The entire facility is a blessing to the AR PHA Family and it was good to e Freemasonry on the move in Pine Bluff.
I attended the Phyllis Chapter’s luncheon on Friday afternoon. We were graciously rved by volunteers from the WMPHGL of AR.
The speaker for the luncheon was the Honorable Judge Alice Sprinkle Gray (12th Division Pulaski County Court). She has been a Circuit Judge in Pulaski and Perry Counties, AR for 17 years. The focus of her speech was on our youth and it hit home with all in attendance.
I also finally had the opportunity to meet Bro. Alton Roundtree for the first time in person. He was soft spoken but very knowledgeable, I’m looking forward to his new book, “The National Grand Lodge and Prince Hall Freemasonry: The Untold Truth.” I’m sure it will cau some great debates as did his first book.

After lunch I attended my first
work‐shops of the convention. Here
is where I learned about the
riousness and rearch the
members are actively involved in.珍爱生命预防溺水
All of the prentations were top
notch, professional and thoroughly
rearched as well as prented.
The amount of light disperd
throughout the work‐shops was
beyond belief.
The information received went well
anna nalick
beyond the ritual but in some cas
the ritual itlf was expounded
upon. Any Prince Hall Freemason
looking for rious rearch and
information on Freemasonry should
be in the process of looking into
joining the Phylaxis Society!
Some of the work‐shops prented
were; “Masonic Jurisprudence” by
Hon. John B. Williams, “PH
Freemasonry and the National
Grand Lodge” by Hon. Alton

Hon. Daryl Andrews and many
others.
One of the most interesting and
possibly most controversial work‐
shops of the ssion was prented
by Hon. Alton Roundtree.
Comments such as, “Boyer Grand
Lodge of NY never existed” and
“The PH GL of Maryland didn’t exist
in 1845” caud many eyebrows to
ri, including mine. It was a very
interesting work‐shop which left us
with many questions and a desire
for more rearch.

Charles E. Johnson, Jr. ~ Grand Sovereign
We are indebted to our Beloved Prince Hall for revealing information about our forefathers, who belonged to the Order of St. John, from whence came the Chi Rho Fraternity. Found in Prince Hall’s charge (1792) is a most interesting account of our Order. In that charge, Prince Hall suggested that the members of African Lodge, were descendants of African masons who were members of a Christian masonic knighthood called, the Order of St. John. In order to understand the history of our Fraternity, it is necessary to examine cloly the charge delivered by Prince Hall. Part of the charge reads as follows:
I shall now shew you what progress Masonry hath made since the siege and taking of Jerusalem in the year 70, by Titus Vespasian; after a long and bloody siege, a million of souls having been slain or had perished in the city, it was taken by storm and the city t on fire. There was an order of men called the order of St. John, who besides their other engagements, subscribed to another, by which they bound themlves to keep up the war against the Turks. The men defended the missle when on fire, in order to save it, so long, that Titus was amazed and went to e the reason of it; but when he came so near as to behold the Sanctum Sanctorum, he was amazed, and shed tears, and said, no wonder the men should so long to save it. He honored them with many honors, and large contributions were made to that order from many Kingdoms; and were also knighted. They continued
螳螂捕蝉翻译
88 years in Jerusalem, till that city was again retaken by the Turks, after which they resided 104 years in the Cyrean city of Ptolemy, till the remains of the Holy Conquest were lost. Whereupon they ttled on the Island of Cyprus, where they continued 18 years, till they found an opportunity to take the Island Rhodes; being masters of that, they maintained it for 213 years, and from thence they were called knights of Rhodes, till in the year 1530 they took their residence in the Island of Malta, where they have continued to this day (1792), and are distinguished by the name of the knights of Malta. Their first Master was Villaret in the year 1099. Fulco Villaret in the year 1322, took the Island Rhodes, and was after that distinguished by the title of Grand Master, which hath devolved to his Successors to this day.
Query, Whether at that day, when there was an African church, and perhaps the largest Christian church on earth whether there was no African of that order; or whether, if they were all white, they would refu to accept them as their fellow Christians and brother Masons; or whether there were any so weak, or rather so foolish, as to say, becau they were blacks that would make their lodge or army too common or too cheap? Sure this was not our conduct in the late war (Revolutionary War); for then they marched shoulder to shoulder, brother soldier and brother soldier, to the field of battle….And now, my African brethren, you e what a noble order you are members of. My charge t
o you is, that you make it your study to live up to the precepts of it, as you know that they are all good; and let it be known this day to the spectators that you have not been to a feast of Bacchus, but to a refreshment with Masons; and e to it that you behave as such, as well at home as abroad; always to keep in your minds the obligations you are under, both to God and your fellow men.
The entire charge is of great importance, for it describes the duty of a Mason as well as providing a quick biography of four of our African forefathers (Tertullian, Cyprian, Augustine, and Fulgentius). The charge further provided the foundation of information which traces the masonic blood-line of our Fraternity. The reader may notice that the Charge provides information about our Order which is currently missing from most masonic rituals and history. It was from Prince Hall’s ancient Charge that the authority for the Chi Rho Fraternity was established.
