Excerpt from History of the Most Ancient and Honorable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons in New York, From the Earliest Date, Vol. 2: Embracing the History of the Grand Lodge in the State, From Its Formation in 1781, and a Sketch of Each Lodge Under Its Jurisdiction; Preceded by a Brief Account of Early Masonry in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Several Continental Nations The liberty of the Masonic press and the free expression of their thoughts, which has been now conceded to Masonic writers, is a victory that has not been gained without an arduous struggle. It was the general opinion of those who were high in office, but not deep in Masonic knowledge, that all the learning of Masonry should be confined to a mere recital of the ritual and an acquaintance with the Lodge lectures. They supposed that the whole curriculum of Masonic science and philosophy was embraced within the narrow limits of oral instruction or, rather, that they knew nothing of anv science or philosophy, and were wont to deem him the most learned Mason who could but recite by rote the stereotyped catechism that he had acquired by fre quent repetition. But there were some few scholars who thought that there was more in Speculative Masonry than was to be found within the meagre limits of the ritual. They believed that this ritual was a mere skeleton, which, to make it presenta ble to men of cultivated intellects, required to be clothed with elevated thoughts that there was, indeed, a system of profound religious philosophy in Masonry, which could only be developed by research that of this system, the ritual was only an. Index pointing out the subjects that were to be investigated and, finally, to give to these investigations any value, it was absolutely necessary that they should be given to the world, like the investigations in any other science or philosophy, by means of publications which Masons could read, and thus enlarge within their homes the ideas, the rudi ments of which they had first acquired at the Lodge.

In consequence of the above recommendation, it was resolved that a new warrant be granted free of all expense, and that the Grand Secretaries forward it as soon as possible." This resolution was complied with, and the History of St. Patrick's Lodge under the new Warrant will be found in its relative place. We append hereto a biographical sketch of Sir William Johnson, taken largely from Worshipful Brother Sidney Hayden's " Washington and his Compeers " Sm WILLIAM J onnson was a native of Ireland, and born in the year 1714. He was the nephew on the mother's side of Sir Peter Warren, the naval commander who distinguished himself at the siege of Louisburg in 1745. Sir Peter had previously married a sister of Chief Justice DeLancy of New York, and had further identified himself with American interests by the purchase of a large tract of wilderness country upon the Mohawk River. Sir Peter sent for his nephew, who is the subject of this sketch, to come to America and take charge of his landed estate. Young Johnson had just been disappointed in a love affair in Ireland, and listened willingly to his proposal. He was then about twenty years of age: he came to America and settled on his uncle's lands at Caughnawaga, on the Mohawk, about the year 1735. The Mohawk country was at that time but sparsely settled by white men, and for many years his principal neighbors and associates were the native Indians of the Six Nations, known in history as the Confederacy of the Iroquois. He learned their language, and often joined with them in hunting, fishing, and other recreations; and by his adroitness...
