Henry,
I read in the forum that you are a Scot living in Germany. Are you a descendant of Sir William St Clair, builder of Roslyn? Are you a Mason? Sorry if this is answered somewhere else but I just found your page and I'm intrigued that you are a St Clair! I have also recently learned that Sir William was the last Prince of Orkney. I have an interest in Orkney but that is a topic for another time.
Anyway, I'd love to hear about your history.

Forgot one thing,
History is quite clear on the fact that Albertus Pike, in his supreme ignorance, replaced the Scottish Rites with his own interpretaions, thus losing all the codes, clues and whatever else might have been in the original rites. I read a book, The Hiram Key, by Knight and Lomas, and in the book they say they found a book of the original rights in a collection in Germany. I haven't been able to find any mention of this or the original rites. Do you have any information on the pre-Piked Scottish Rites?

Thanks,
Argus Orcades

It must be said that the Hiram Key contains many mis-truths. One of which is the idea that pre pike rituals are hard to obtain. By telling the reader that they are hard to obtain makes them, as researchers, appear to be holding secrets, when in fact they are easy to access, obtain and study.

Keep looking but tell yourself that they are easy to find....and you will find them!

Gardez bien.

P.S I am no relation to Henry. But masonry is in my blood and my scottish home is steeped in Templar history. Robert Bruce and many stewarts after him owned and rented my land.
