From the Quarries

The content of this video has been taken from an 1880 essay by Hugh M’Curdy. It was published in “The Voice of Masonry” in that year.

Its tone, language and content are very representative of Masonic lectures of that period, with an emphasis on moral uplift, rather than the more modern approach foregrounding historical and historiographical pedantry.

It won’t tell you much about the Cryptic degrees, but says a lot about late Victorian Masonry!
