My Brethren:
On Monday, November 4, we will be making our annual and traditional Official Visit to Fredericksburg Lodge No. 4 in Fredericksburg, Virginia. We will be presenting Most Worshipful James Bernard Wilkinson, Grand Master of Masons in Virginia, with a portrait of him sitting in the Washington chair in The Alexandria-Washington Replica Lodge Room. There will be a dinner served at 6:30 p.m., and if you would like to attend, please call me so I may give the Brethren of Fredericksburg Lodge an accurate head-count.
