On Saturday, February 22, Bro. S. Brent Morris was presented with another top honor for excellence in Masonic scholarship when he received the George Washington Memorial Award.

It was the 110th anniversary of the George Washington Masonic National Memorial Association, and part of the festivities included Morris presenting his “In Praise of Punctuation: The Case of the Missing Semicolon,” which explains how small mistakes can cause misunderstandings in historical research. This award, I gather, is more in recognition of a lifetime of labor.

Congratulations, Brent! They’ll need a wing in the House of the Temple for all your trophies one day.

(I don’t know if he still reads The Magpie Mason, but Brent was an encouraging voice back when this blog was more informative.)

Many thanks for your kind words about my award. And, yes, I still follow the Magpie Mason. It's part of my daily check of the doings in the Masonic World.
