This is the story of the famous Timothy Peacock., and his career as a Mason. Our Hero, the present Thrice Illustrious TIMOTHY PEACOCK, Esquire, was born in a small village in the interior of Rhode Island. If the following pages shall succeed in presenting the various and motley features of Freemasonry in their proper light-show where it is most effectual to laugh, where to censure and denounce, and where to (not praise-that word would be a white sheep in such fellowship,) where to let it alone-the aims of the author will have been accomplished. His views of that extraordinary, strangely compounded and certainly very powerful institution, are not dissimilar to those of many others at the present day; but he may differ from them in the manner in which he believes it most expedient and politic to serve up for the public many of the materials of which it is composed. Please Note: This book has been reformatted to be easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher.
