The Responsibility of a Master Mason
"To preserve the reputation of the Fraternity unsullied" is the constant responsibility
of the Master Mason, for he is Freemasonry to many people in the circle of influence which
surrounds every life. An exemplary life is the best means by which we can discharge our individual
responsibility to our own Lodge in particular and to Freemasonry in general. The conduct of each Master
Mason is strictly his own responsibility; he should choose the course which will bring credit to himself
and honor to the Fraternity.
