To The Edge of the World by Tilar J. Mazzeo
Summer 1856. Nineteen-year-old Mary Ann Patten and her husband, Joshua, are young and ambitious. Both from New England seafaring families, they have already completed their first voyage around the world with Joshua as captain. Their dream of building a home and a family is coming within reach. It would mean freedom. But the price of that freedom is one last dangerous transit – a race to deliver supplies to the California Gold Rush.

The claim to being the first Masonic Lodge in America was so hotly disputed in the 18th century, that some went so far as to claim documentary evidence of the earliest meetings. One such was a letter purporting to record a Masonic meeting in Philadelphia in 1715, written by John Moore, Collector at the Port.
When challenged, the claimant was unable to produce the letter, although some early Masonic historians had accepted it sight unseen.

While Craft Masonry has the well-known three Degrees, other fraternal organisations directly linked to or emulating Freemasonry claim far more. The Scottish Rite has thirty-three; the Supreme Council of the Rite of Mizraim ninety; the Egyptian Masonic Rite of Memphis ninety-six. Only the Oriental Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine appears to have fewer, with one - after attainment of the Master Mason Degree in a Craft Lodge.

The case of Marie DeRaisme has been reliably documented, but there is also a persistent tale that Elisabeth St. Ledger, having concealed herself in Lodge rooms at her English family mansion but being caught by the Tiler, was conferred the first and second Degrees to prevent her disclosing Masonic secrets.
The tale originates from 1710, long before the creation of a Master Mason Degree, and prior to the formation of the first Grand Lodge.

Following the resulting loss of the Lodge's Charter, DeRaisme and Georges Martin formed Human Rights Lodge #1, Mother Lodge of the Co-Masonry (mixed Lodges) fraternity.

Prince Hall Masonry in the United States - raised for Men of Colour - was probably first founded in about 1778 in Boston. In March and June of 1784, Prince Hall petitioned the Grand Lodge of England (Moderns), and a Charter was issued on 29 September 1784.
With the amalgamation of the Ancient and Moderns to form one Grand Lodge of England, in 1813, the Prince Hall Grand Lodges were temporarily dropped from the roll.

In 1912 the Grand Lodge of California passed a Masonic law prohibiting membership to anyone who was engaged, either as owner or employee, in the saloon business, unless as part of a bonafide hotel or restaurant. In Nebraska, there was a prohibition on membership for anyone who sold liquor in any form.
The saloon has vanished, and times have changed, but all agree that a Brother who regularly over-imbibes acts in an unmasonic manner.
