Our Worshipful Master, Albert Miller, was recently hospitalized.  As a result, this month's message from the East was published by our esteemed Trestleboard editor, Walter Leitch.

• It's been said that Masonry is about associating oneself with good men. In my brief but exciting tour of freemasonry, I've found that there are all kinds of ways to do this. Most of the time, it's in the formal atmosphere of a stated or called communication. Once in a while we've had the opportunity to associate outside the formal bounds of these meetings.

I've only been a mason for a couple of years now, but I can honestly say that I'm glad to have associated myself with such good people.  The masonic family has expanded my circle of friends to encompass such a variety of folks that I never would have thought to befriend before.  I honestly think that I'm better for having done so.  I've come to know my fellow masons as true brothers.
