First Degree JD - Have you anything to give in the cause of Charity? Candidate …… JD - lowers hand or alms dish and, if Can does not answer quickly, proceeds with second question Were you deprived of everything v…...le previously to entering the Lodge? Can - gives affirmative JD - If you had not been so deprived would you give freely? Can - gives affirmative JD - turns right and faces WM SP and EA Sn which he holds WM, our new made brother affirms that he was deprived of everything v…..le previously to entering the Lodge or he would give freely cuts Sn and resumes position on r of Can. WM - I congratulate you on the honourable sentiments by which you are actuated; likewise on the inability which in the present instance precludes you from gratifying them. Believe me, this trial was not made with a view to sport with your feelings; far from us any such intention. It was done for three especial reasons; first, as I have already premised, to put your principles to the test; secondly, to evince to the Brethren that 41 of 150
First Degree you had neither m…y nor m……c substance about you, for if you had, the ceremony of your initiation thus far, must have been repeated; and thirdly, as a warning to your own heart, that should you at any future period meet a Brother in distressed circumstances who might solicit your assistance, you will remember the peculiar moment you were received into Masonry, poor and penniless, and cheerfully embrace the opportunity of practicing towards him that virtue you have professed to admire. JD - takes Can’s r h and places him in front of WM, or in a position to the lsft or right of the pedestal dependant on who is giving the w ts, and releases h. WM - I now present to you the w ts of an EA FM: they are the 24 in G, the common G, and the C indicates tools as he names them The 24 in G is to measure our work, the common G to knock off all superfluous knobs and excrescences, and the C to further smooth and prepare the stone and render it fit for the hands of the more expert workman. But, as we are not all operative masons, but rather free and accepted or speculative, we apply these ts to our morals. In this sense the 24 in G represents the twenty four hours of the day, part to be spent in prayer to Almighty God, part in labour and refreshment and part in serving a friend or Brother in time of need, 42 of 150
