About this ebook
At the time when this book was written in 1919, Freemasonry was still largely a secret society whose rites, purpose, and customs were shrouded in mystery and often feared. There was talk that American Indian tribes also had Freemasonry lodges. This book describes the Buffalo Consistory and the Freemasons of the Iroquois tribe in great detail.

DEDICATION
To Ga-je-wa, Ho-doin-jai-ey and Ho-skwi-sa-onh, three friends who have done most to lead me on in the journey where I have received more light in Masonry, and whose brotherly love and affection have demonstrated to many a wayfarer the potency of the Masonic tie, this account of American Indian Freemasonry is dedicated, by their friend
GA-WA-SO-WA-NEH
In the beginning God created heaven and earth.—Genesis.
Remove not the ancient landmark which thy fathers have set.—Solomon.
Speculative masonry is so far interwoven with religion as to lay us under the strongest obligations to pay that rational homage to the Deity, which at once constitutes our duty and our happiness. It leads the contemplative to view with reverence and admiration the glorious works of creation and inspires them with the most exalted ideas of the perfection of the divine Creator.—Samuel Cole.
We also have a religion which was given to our forefathers and has been handed down from father to son. We worship in that way. It teaches us to be thankful for all the favors we receive, to love one another and be united.—Red Jacket.
It is more than probable that the diversified customs, institutions and religions of the several nations of the world are less dissimilar in their origin than is often imagined. The differences arose in the progress of time, the shifting scenes of climate, condition and event. But the original ideas of existence and the laws that pertain to all created things are pretty much the same among all the tribes of mankind.—Westropp, Ancient Symbol Worship.
