The three candidates give the signs of Entered Apprentice. (See Figs. 1 and 2, pp. 17, 18.) High Priest (to King and Scribe.)--Companions, are you satisfied? The King bows gracefully, and the Scribe answers, We are satisfied, Most Excellent. High Priest (to candidates.)--The Grand Council are satisfied that you are Entered Apprentice Masons. Have you been advanced to the Fellow Craft's Degree? Candidates give the Fellow Craft signs (see Figs. 3 and 4, p. 17), when the High Priest asks his companions of the Grand Council if they are satisfied, as before, and then informs the p. 241 candidates that the Grand Council approves them as true Fellow Crafts, &c. The same questions and answers are given in like manner as to each Degree, up to and including that of Most Excellent Master, and the candidates give all the signs of those Degrees to the Grand Council in detail. High Priest (after consultation with the King and Scribe.)--Companions, we are satisfied that you are three worthy Most Excellent Masters. As
