Maynard, and adopted. Resolved: That a committee of three be appointed, of which committee Companion Jefferson S. Conover shall be the chairman, to compile the constitution, by-laws, rules, regulations and decisions of this Grand Council, have them properly indexed, printed and bound in a suitable and substantial book, one copy of which shall be delivered to each subordinate council in the Grand Jurisdiction. Owing to the death of the chairman, and other reasons, the work was not completed that year, and it appearing that the work should embrace more than was provided for by the resolution, on the recommendation of Grand Master John H. Kingsley at the annual assembly of 1904, the committee was authorized to incorporate in the publication the ceremonies of instituting new councils; constituting, dedicating and installing officers of councils under dispensation; also ceremonies of installation of Grand Officers, together with blank forms to be used by the Grand Council and its subordinates. The committee have completed its work and submit the same herewith with the hope that it will be of valuable assistance and meet with the hearty approval of the craft.
