Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Binding of the Links: A Story of Forty Years in Odd Fellowship
The forty years spent in the Order by the writer have not dispossessed him of his mental or physical powers. The experience of those years has furnished material for writing a book to please and instruct a large number of brothers and friends scattered throughout New Eng land and other States. The book contains no dry statistics concerning the Order. Those matters have been correctly and thor oughly compiled by the able Grand Secretary, Theodore A. Ross, in the History of Odd Fellowship. This is a book of simple narrative; a real life picture; not over drawn, but made up of extracts from the writer's journal and reminiscences. The story is told in an every-day style, just as it would be when seated among the brothers in a cosy lodge-room on a long wintry evening. The words em ployed express the true ideas and intent of what the writer desires to communicate, and his hope is that every brother into whose hands the book comes will read it carefully, give countenance to every good and honest thought, and throw the mantle of charity over all its imperfections.
