My Lodge Experience

The Secret Order, and Why I Left It

WHEN I was a young man, thirty years ago, Satan set his trap for me, and I became a member of the secret orders. When I realized the wicked oaths I had taken, I decided the Lord wanted me to write out my experience to help some poor souls in withdrawing from this terrible evil, and for the benefit of others who were in danger of being enticed into these lodges.
This experience I have published in a book of sixty-four pages. I made the price 15 cents. I have been very anxious to get our people to read up on this question, and have, therefore, given away so many to those I thought needed the warning that I have not received enough from the copies sold to settle the printer's bill. I am so anxious to get them into the homes of those who are in such danger that I have decided to reduce the price to 10 cents a copy, or three copies for 25 cents, 25 copies for $1.50, all post-paid. I will furnish them at the above rates as long as they last. Order of the Southern Publishing Association, Nashville, Tenn.
This book is not published to abuse my friends in the various lodges, but to help them to see the danger of remaining in the lodge, and to save others from being drawn into these unchristian orders.
