Some time ago I was invited to give a lecture on Royal Arch Masonry in a Craft Lodge in Christchurch.
On that occasion I used several short lectures and papers which I had written on various aspects of the subject over a period of years.
Subsequently I decided to re-write my lecture in the form of a full scale paper suitable for reading in Craft Lodges for the information of Master Masons, and this present paper is the result.
I propose to deal with the subject under various headings including the constitutional position, aims and objects, procedure, history and origin and the Biblical background.
