have come thus far to promote so noble and good
an undertaking, but further you cannot go without
my sign and word of explanation and signet.
Q. What was his sign?
A. It is in imitation of that given by God to
Moses, when he commanded him to take of the
water of the river and pour it upon the dry land.
Q. What is his word of explanation?
A. It is explanatory of that sign, is recorded by
Moses, and is as follows: And it shall come to
pass if they will not believe also these two signs,
neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt
take of the water of the river and pour it upon the
dry land, and the water which thou takest out of
the river shall become blood upon the dry land.
Q. Where did you meet with the next obstruction?
A. At the fourth veil or sanctuary, where on
making the regular demand, we heard the Royal
Arch Captain exclaim, "Who dares approach the
fourth veil or sanctuary, where incense burns
upon our holy altar both day and night? Who
comes here?"
Q. Your answer?
A. Three worthy sojourners, who have come up
to help, aid, and assist in the rebuilding of the
house of the Lord, without the hope of fee or
reward.
Q. What were you then asked?
A. Whence came you?
