‘To the King and the Craft’

   
Macoy
That’s a loyal toast that hasn’t been heard in British Freemasonry in seventy years, since the death of Bro. Albert Frederick Arthur George—King George VI—but the time for that has come again this hour upon the official announcement of the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Condolences to the brethren wherever dispersed about the face of the earth.

Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and cousin of Her Majesty, is Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England. Prince Michael of Kent is Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons. 

A period of mourning has begun which surely will postpone the quarterly communication of the UGLE.

“God save the King.”
