Book excerpt: Excerpt from Michigan Masonic Monitor After the subject of a revision of the Webb-Fenton Monitor had been informally discussed among the brethren for several years, the Grand Lodge, in 1895, placed the matter in the hands of an able committee, who gave much thought and study thereto. Upon the recommendation of this committee, as the result of their labor and research, it was determined to make some additions to the paragraph upon the lamb skin or white leathern apron, and to make few other changes except verbal ones to correct ungrammatical words or phrases, leaving the general text of the work as we have had it for the last half a century. The Grand Lodge having formally adopted this work in January, 1897, as recommended by its committee, it now becomes, in truth, "The Michigan Masonic Monitor," and by that name it will hereafter be designated. In arranging it for printing, all those parts heretofore published with the old editions of the Webb-Fenton Monitor that were simply explanatory or historical in character, and those which more properly belong to the "Blue Book," have been eliminated, and we now have in a compact and systematized form, unincumbered with anything of a different nature, the monitorial work as authorized to be used in the Michigan Lodges. A careful study of this work is commended to the Masters and brethren of this jurisdiction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
