Excerpt from Life and Action, Vol. 2: The Great Work in America
Dear Friend And Brother:-
I am in receipt of a copy of "The American Freemason" [for January, 1911], which Journal I heartily congratulate, in that its editorial destiny is in your personal keeping.
The copy referred to comes to me very carefully marked with blue pencil, in such manner as more especially to call my attention to your interesting "Open Letter to the Freeman"s Journal", at page 114 et seq.
Whether I am indebted to you personally for this distinguished courtesy, or to some other kind Friend and Brother who is interested in my personal welfare and enlightenment, does not appear in the marking. But in either event, inasmuch as the closing paragraph of your "Open Letter" is marked with special care, I am led to infer that the kind and thoughtful sender of this marked copy is laboring under the impression that I am one of "those of the fraternity" whom you "would no less severely criticise" for "sending copies" of a certain libelous article which a short time ago appeared as a leading editorial in "The New World" [Roman Catholic Official Organ for the arch-diocese of Chicago], "broadcast to the Lodges, to foment hatred where there is no immediate need", etc. [The italics are mine.]
