fakemasonry

Freemasonry is not a secret society.  Irish Freemasonry publicly disclosed by hosting on the internet and via the publication of its annual report that was I charged, tried, sentenced and suspended. Subsequently it recorded that suspension was lifted.   However truth and material fact was not allowed to be disclosed nor accepted by those who manipulated the governance of proceedings.

To restore equality of expressing the outcomes placed upon me this fakemasonry website will without constraint, grant an opportunity to transparently view matters. Neither the Grand Lodge of Ireland nor any person referenced has refuted any concept which I have openly and plainly outlined directly with them. Also the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE) and Grand Lodge of Scotland (GLoS) are unwisely of the belief that they too should ignore matters.

Primarily this site is established to place on record the failings of the entirety of hierarchy in Irish Masonry and ineptness of UGLE and GloS as the Home Grand Lodges. Other sections are included to bring further clarity to the narrative of poor governance, by the same hierarchy of officers.

Two significant factors condemn the Orders current position which renders its rationale as fakemasonry.

Arrogance of Officers / Appeal to Reinstatement GL 16

13 December 2017

Dear Acting Grand Secretary, Philip Daley,

Fake masonry and truth documented.

Those who hold others to account, must themselves be accountable. Today’s, Belfast Crown Court sentencing of Grand Lodge Officer V W Bro Stanley Murphy to fraud by abuse of position, as well as 14 separate counts of theft while being the treasurer of Antrim Province is of great significance. He received a two year custodial tariff and a proceed of crime order was upheld.

The judgment places a spotlight on Grand Lodge of Irelands moral compass to decisions it orchestrated. Grand Lodge and Antrim Province previously gleaned a ruling by Judge Weatherup and then appeal Judge Sir Declan Morgan in the Orders favour. To dupe a legal ruling to permit deviation from its own rules and laws during internal proceedings to oust father and son Stewart and Brian Hood and myself was on the pretence that the hierarchy had no other option.

In view that I was seeking transparency to financial issues during the period of which Stanley Murphy was unworthy to be Mason, many remain dissatisfied as Grand Lodge continues to preserve his Masonic good standing. He was also a co-signatory to malicious and fictitious allegations aired at a Kangaroo Court against me and others. And the outcome to oust stalwart members was later approved at two Grand Lodge show trials.

In addition, two of his co-signatories were proven of unmasonic conduct at a covert Grand Lodge hearing but their promotion continued without impediment. Currently the Provincial Grand Master John Dickson and his deputy Jack Dunlop remain as leaders despite prima facia evidence proven by the Order of their bias. Their former PGM John Dunlop was also proven of unmasonic conduct at the self same covert hearing and within weeks he and John Dickson were both promoted to that of Most Wise Sovereigns in Prince Chapter Masonry by approval of Sovereign Grand Commander, S. Gordon Leathem BEM.

A statement forwarded to Grand Lodge by a past Antrim Provincial Secretary Alan Askin clearly alludes that the then serving Grand Master Eric Waller and GM designate George Dunlop, in the presence of himself and other co-signatories of the fabricated allegations, was the then Provincial Grand Master John Dunlop with his assistant John Frazer at which it was discussed that I, Brian and Stewart Hood were a nuisance to the Order. The Grand Master then publically called for a special meeting at which we were tried in our absence.

Despite bringing to light this Machiavellian cohort, that indisputably is comprised of a criminal and three senior officers proven of unmasonic conduct, alongside an unequivocal statement detailing their conniving, the validity of the actions against me has not been declared null and void. This is no surprise as the current Grand Master Douglas Gray was a collaborator to have us ousted as his title involved him at first instance, whilst previously as Deputy Grand Master. Furthermore the current Deputy Grand Master Rodney McCurley is equally deceitful to the membership in masonry by occupying a role in Grand Lodge Grievance Committee. In no other sphere of society would such a significant injustice be upheld, except by the entirety of the Grand Lodge of Ireland corrupted governance which disallows natural justice.

The elephant in the room is abandonment of the Ancient Landmarks and disregard of the tenets and teachings of Freemasonry by a disingenuous Grand Lodge chain of command. From the entered apprentice degree, it is taught to warn your fellow brother of impending danger and at an installation of Worshipful Master, the plumb line is used to exemplify justice and impartiality. Freemasonry is now rendered worthless and empty by the exploits of those in high office who sustain their outcomes of kangaroo courts and hearings manipulated by Grand Lodge. It is not tenable that the United Grand Lodge of England and Grand Lodge of Scotland still endorse the Home Grand Lodges tripartite agreement with Ireland, as they are meticulously informed.

As a victim of his crime, I never missed a hearing and would attribute that my letter of 14 September 2017 to the Public Prosecution Service aided the success in gaining some confiscation from him. This outcome is contra to the Orders barrister confirming to Belfast Recorder Judge David McFarland on 29 August 2017 that “no restitution” would be made in the case. Meanwhile the Grand Secretaries office informed the press that V W Bro Stanley Murphy had been ‘struck off.’ This shamefully establishes that he simply left the Order by not paying dues as do circa 190 members annually. And as such, as a non subscribing member the Order is unable to summons or charge him. Nor can the Order expel, suspend or reprimand him as he not a subscribing member. It is noted that no Grand Lodge or Provincial Officer attended the Crown Court hearings such is their scant regard to matters.

Fake masonry governed by phony masons holding Kangaroo Courts by the guise of Masonic jurisprudence while always furthering themselves. They avoid reality but they cannot avoid the consequences of reality.

Yours in pure Ancient Masonry,

W Bro. R. Wilson (Unattached IC)

Dear Acting Grand Secretary, Philip Daley,

With the next quarterly communication of Grand Lodge of Ireland scheduled for 1 June 2017, I trust this open letter is of assistance to you in your capacity as Acting Grand Secretary.

I understand that Grand Lodge of Ireland stood down with immediate effect Barry Lyons and Morgan McCreadie the former Grand Secretary and his Assistant. This unparalleled achievement does not remove them from knowingly being in variance to Masonic precepts and teachings to matters concerning myself. It is noted their joint legacy did not encompass positive times within Freemasonry.

Grand Lodge of Ireland has neither acknowledged nor replied to my letter 19 December 2016 which details the conspiracy footprint by Senior Officers to sully my name. Nor has Grand Lodge refuted or challenged the statement issued on 4 October 2015 by Alan Askin, Past Provincial Secretary of Antrim that substantiates the plot of Grand Masters against me and others. These authentic documents were personally delivered into the hands of the Grand Registrar N. J. Hunter and copied to you.

I also hand delivered the same correspondences to United Grand Lodge of England and Grand Lodge of Scotland on 22 February 2017 and again copied the respective covering letters to you. No doubt these matters now bind the Home Grand Lodges in closer amity to collectively conceal.

Grand Lodge records will validate that I wrote on 19 February 2009 and 25 February 2009 seeking clarification to financial irregularities in Antrim being endorsed by the Cabinet Officers of Antrim of which V W Bro. S. Murphy was the treasurer. Subsequently at the Provincial Grand Lodge of Antrim stated communication on 28 February 2009 the Grand Master, George Dunlop announced two edicts. Firstly, no questions to be allowed as he was aware that I had given timely notice that I would enquire in open communication of my financial question. Secondly, he publicly directed that an emergency meeting is to take place on 18 March 2009 at which I was specifically excluded and found guilty in my absence by method of a pre determined outcome voting slip.

Grand Lodge not content with having the incompetence of a Kangaroo Court directly attributable to the Grand Master then embarked to holding covertly managed show trials. These flawed proceedings under the guise of natural justice further exposed the depth of conspiracy by those in most High Office.

The Grand Lodge show trials necessitated a charge sheet to be construed and signed by the following listed senior officers. Your files will show that they had signed a blank charge sheet as Grand Lodge had yet to fabricate and agree which allegations the Antrim Officers were to assert.

Noted beneath each of the below listed conspirators is a pertinent resume of their unworthiness to be Mason in same order as which the self same cabal penned their signatures to a blank charge sheet:

R W Bro. D. R. Millen, Provincial Deputy Grand Master of Antrim.

An officer unable ever to remember anything that required truth but always capable to concur to any conjured minute.

R W Bro. W. J. Dyer, Provincial Assistant Grand Master of Antrim.

An officer who voted in favour to my joining his Prince Chapter Masons while simultaneously scheming to sully my name which exemplifies that he is duplicitous. His ever self appraising Boys Brigade identification reflects poorly to the once highly respected calibre of person that younger people were encouraged to trust. His Masonic Lodge 619 Sure and Stedfast closure is another facet of his tarred accomplishments.

R W Bro. J. O. Dunlop, Provincial Assistant Grand Master of Antrim.

An officer proven by Grand Lodge in holding a Kangaroo Court against me so I need not expand of his deceitfulness, but is available on request.

R W Bro. J. L. Frazer, Provincial Assistant Grand Master of Antrim.

An officer whose allegation surrounded a Rates Rebate cheque that was made payable to him, posted to his home, but under the falseness of using a business name to which he had no connection was withdrawn at Grand Lodge hearings so as truth would not be uncovered to matters on finance.

V W Bro. S. Murphy, Provincial Grand Treasurer of Antrim.

This officer is currently appearing before a Crown Court regarding misappropriation of Masonic funds circa £115,000.00. As he is innocent until proven otherwise he benefits from not being judged by unprejudiced Masons, not.

V W Bro. J. Dickson, Provincial Grand Registrar of Antrim.

An officer proven by Grand Lodge in holding a Kangaroo Court against me so I need not expand of his untruthfulness, but is available on request.

W Bro. I. Gillespie, Provincial Grand Secretary of Antrim.

An officer who attributed himself on an official minute as being a ‘non combatant’ but with being a co-signature to a fabricated charge sheet demonstrates he is evidently not to be trusted. And he was secretary at the Kangaroo Court and prepared the voting slips and associated arrangements.

Lest we forget their leader, the Provincial Grand Master at the time, V W Bro. J. S. Dunlop.

Another officer proven by Grand Lodge in holding a Kangaroo Court against me so I need not expand on his greatest ineptness that delivered the closing of the Provincial Masonic Hall. He even failed to be included in the signing of the charge sheet such is his failing of leadership.

The current Antrim secretary recently informed the press that V W Bro. S. Murphy ‘is not now a member of the Masonic Order,’ and thus the good standing remains for this Grand Lodge officer. Grand Lodge records will show that after being informed of the Kangaroo Court I was minded to leave the Order and that Antrim secretary wrote on 8 April 2009 stating ‘no demit should be issued… nor resignation be accepted.’ The disparity by Grand Lodge direction further exemplifies the vindictiveness toward me.

As my financial question of February 2009 remains unanswered I am confident that I will be better informed by the public proceedings of a Crown Court hearing. However, what feat will Grand Lodge undertake regarding natural justice to the proven and established skewed and discredited signatories who penned my charge sheet of which that of V W Bro. S. Murphy is probably most stupendous?

Yours in fraternity,

Dear RW Willie Shackell CBE

As to Masonic goings-on affecting myself I am satisfied that the United Grand Lodge of England is conscious to such an issue. I have directly and personally emailed on several occasions and I am certain that other subscribing members have informed United Grand Lodge of England regarding the deprived governance by Grand Lodge of Ireland.

Find enclosed a letter dated 19 December 2016 with associated documents which I hand delivered to the Grand Registrar of Ireland at his home. Though accepting for an hour of hospitality neither he personally nor any office bearer within the Grand Lodge of Ireland has replied. The Grand Secretary of Ireland also having been specifically informed upon my receipt of an email dated 4 October 2015 on which the content matter itself would warrant an immediate investigation. Equally, no rebuttal to any matter was prospered.

The three Home Grand Lodges have long time stated that disapproval of any action which may tend to permit the slightest departure from that basic principles of Freemasonry then they cannot claim to be following the Ancient Landmarks of the Order and must ultimately face disintegration. I submit before United Grand Lodge of England that conspiracy, holding of kangaroo courts, corruption of governance and prejudice are each individually more than a slight departure in variance to the Ancient Landmarks and contrary to the tenets and principals of the Order.

On receiving this hand served correspondence, from a brother seeking assistance, I enquire; What now the action by United Grand Lodge of England regarding the amity and recognition to the Grand Lodge of Ireland, which unequivocally disavows moral law, by the edicts of Grand Masters of the Grand Lodge of Ireland and Officers thereto, let alone to the protection of my character and good standing.

19 December 2016

John,

I write as a former subscribing member of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Ireland. As to the reason why those who govern did collectively conspire to sully my name and good character by abuse of power and position is for them to answer. Their pitiable rationale is unimportant to me as nothing can justify kangaroo courts and conspiring Grand Masters edicts. Nor why they as the highest guardians of the Order embarked to do so while I was engaged in the largest Masonic financial building project in Ireland during the past century is bewildering. But crucially the manner and process, in which the auspice of Freemasonry was corrupted, by the self same cohorts, cannot be treated as a distant historical topic. Nor can it be deemed to be a regretful legacy of past officers mal-administration, as the status quo currently remains today. And it will remain a live issue until it be addressed.

The besmirching inflicted unto me by Grand Lodge is very current and equally remains ever present. All recent, current and future Grand Lodge Board representatives including Provincial Grand Lodge Officers in every Province are complacent by their inaction which condemns them everlastingly until injustices are corrected. It is apparent that the oaths and obligations which I undertook are not meaningful to those in governance. A light does not shine in their darkness and each year new appointed officer’s also directly contribute to concealing truth to retain their rank. The continuance of the cover up by new officers is no less of a cover up by the initial conspirators 17 November 2007 as per those exposed by document 10 enclosed.

Though I proclaim to be wholly vindicated by the receipt of a statement (document10) which was subsequently forwarded to Grand Lodge, it is noted that not one singularly named officer has refuted matters therein. The dross of Freemasonry laden with golden braid is surely floating on the top and incapable of discerning the difference between truth and their fiction to the membership.

As this letter to you may also be distributed to others who may be lesser informed I have assembled the following better particulars in a chronological date sequence of material snippets that is authenticated from Grand Lodge documents. These following documents have always been in your domain as you sat on the first Grand Lodge hearing panel of 7 November and 14 November 2009 and subsequently you now preside as the Grand Lodge Registrar. Your fingerprints and particular full insight to the failings of natural justice within Freemasonry is your skill set as a practising barrister.

 18 March 2009

Doc 1 – Voting paper. [1 page: number 1]

Provincial Grand Lodge of Antrim found me guilty of unmasonic conduct in my absence. This meeting was described as a Kangaroo Court by some of the self same subscribing masons who were coerced to participate. At my rehearing the PGM John Dickson sought that I should not display his voting paper as evidence. He felt intimidated by the manner in which it was framed but he never thought it intimidating to use. It remains as a framed artefact in my home and becomes a frequent conversation piece. I can recall of all my time in Masonry and I  have nothing to hide.

 

30 March 2009

Doc 2 – Report by PGLA grievance committee. [4 pages: numbered 2,3,4,5]

It states (section 1) that the Grand Master was directing matters.

It clearly indicates that no charge was laid against me. (page 3 section 6a and page 4 sub- para (a) reference to same)

 

 

8 April 2009

Doc 3 – PGLA suspension letter. [1 page: number 6]

Letter from PGLA referring to my immediate suspension in accordance to Grand Law 35.

 

29 April 2009

Doc 4 – PGLA prohibited letter. [1 page: number 7]

Letter from PGLA informing that Grand Law 35 was misdirected and that I should be prohibited rather than suspended. The following document 5 states that no prima facie case was even made between 18 March 2009 to 7 October 2009 and beyond.  Thus it follows the edict by the then DGM Dougie Grey to prohibit me was also contrary to a requirement of GL 35 as any accused needed to be charged with an offence involving expulsion or suspension. At no time at any hearing was a charge prospered to cite expulsion or suspension of that charge.

 

7 October 2009

Doc 5 – GL letter to PGLA  [4 pages: numbered 8,9,10, 11]

This letter plainly and simply sets out to PGLA that a while hearing dates are scheduled no prima facie case has been made. And Grand Lodge has never established if a prima case was made. (page 9 para 2)

 

27 October 2009

Doc 6 – GL initial summons to an accused brother. [1 page: number 12]

GL summons irregularly served by the failings of Morgan McCreadie to hearing 7 November 2009 and also that a prima facie case was never established in the first instance.

 

15 January 2010

Doc7 – GL letter to Straid ML secretary. [1 page: number 13]

As a hearing panel member of the November 2009 hearings you found three Provincial officers guilty of unmasonic conduct and myself and two others. But Grand Lodge did not publish in the annual report their guilt, but published and circulated my name and names of S Hood and B Hood.

 

7 May 2013

Doc 8 – GL rehearing summons to an accused brother. [1 page: number 14]

The GL rehearing summons is served in accordance to GL 35 protocol but no prima facia case was yet established. Not surprising that outcome was to uphold that of the Kangaroo Court of 18 March 20019 and the initial GL show trials of November 2009. Had it not done so the Grand Masters so called prerogative and desires as outlined in above listed document 2 would have meant that the PGLA grievance committee as having brought criticism to all senior officers involved. So cowardly they replaced hoodwinks to see nothing but aid those bereft of good moral and unmasonic intentions.

Doc 9 – Demit. [1 page: number 15]

28 December 2009

Doc 9 – Demit. [1 page: number 15]

This document is not in date sequence which is irrelevant but date thereon is important. What the demit date alludes is that Grand Lodge served a summons on me for their rehearing when I was no longer a subscribing member. It also means that Grand Lodge actually suspended me from the Order when I was evidently not a subscribing member as demit predates same. This idiotic outworking is by an inept administration under the supervision of a Grand Registrar.

 

17 November 2007

Doc 10 – Alan Askin statement [1 page: page 16]

This statement was received on 4 October 2015 and has not been refuted nor challenged.

 

There are other numerous damning documents on other facets of this tenure of Irish Freemasonry presided by the continuity of the current Grand Secretary and current Grand Master since 2008. The elephants in the room are holding quarterly communications but the membership cannot neither see justice nor wisdom only deceit to Masonic tenets.

To remove uncertainty as to why I hand delivered this correspondence is because you continued to prosecute although I had informed you and your panel members that the summons dated 27 October 2009 was incorrectly served in accordance to Grand Law 35. Being of the legal profession you are well acquainted with the importance of properly serving of papers etc.

The disregard by Rodgers Mathews, Leslie Johnston and David Young and yourself as hearing panel members to attain an appropriate resolve exposes the seeds of corruption of Masonic tenets by those who serve in Grand Lodge. In furtherance to my rebuttal to all allegations at the second Grand Lodge hearing of 7 May 2003 I sought disclosures. One disclosure pertained to the serving of my summons.

Sent to GL 2 June 2013 3:11 PM by email

‘‘I seek disclosure on manner which summons to an accused brother dated 27 October 2009 as served on me.’’

Received from GL 21 June 2013 4:16 PM by email

‘‘I have no idea.’’

This ‘‘I have no idea.’’ answer is contrary to Grand Law 35. It is ridiculous that the Grand Secretary Barry Lyons alleges that he did not know that his assistant Morgan McCreadie had travelled to Belfast to serve various summonses. It is more absurd that Morgan McCreadie had sheepishly spoken to me on my mobile phone the previous evening. Using a false pretence to learn of my absence from home as I was at my holiday house that week eloquently displays the contempt to due process on me. Unbeknown to others whom Morgan visited and lunched the next day he declined an offer to be provided with a lift to my address. Rather than disclose the reason to his luncheon hosts of his Machiavellian errand to Belfast on behalf of the Grand Lodge hearing panel he did not divulge his knowledge that I was away from home. With retrospect understanding of his performance a dog bone would have been sufficient feeding. Another Masonic poodle that belittles himself but exemplifies what is abhorrent to distracters of Freemasonry worldwide.

It is disturbing how salaried officers, paid for by the members, have scant regard to the serving of a summons which is clearly stated in the rules and constitution of Grand Lodge. More perturbing is that the Grand Registrar permits a flawed process and biased case without prima facia material to continue despite having matters brought to his direct attention.

So hence I now fulfil an easy requisite of GL 35 requirement to deliver ‘either personally or by posting a registered letter direct…. at his last known address.’ Accepting this is not a summons but I now perceive you to be a Mason who would question the integrity of having received same.

Mark Twain a renowned freemason is attributed to the adage; ‘‘If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.’’ Let someone in Grand Lodge now commence the process of truth be told rather than place future officers with the burden of maintaining the cover up.

In conclusion, this is not private correspondence. It is also copied to Grand Lodge, my mother lodge Temple 51 and Provincial Grand Lodges etc. As a hearing panel member you had access to all my correspondence to fabricate the allegations and fulfil the desire of senior officers. As Grand Lodge maintains that neither it nor officers have done wrong unto me then the circulation of any material document would support that assertion. Peculiarly that Grand Lodge even forbids discussion and senior officers of all Provinces allege to know nothing. Document 10 also is not private. The subject matter explicitly would vindicate myself and that of Brian and Stewart Hood. As for those directly indentified who remain collectively unvoiced by collective decision by mutual conspiracy on behalf of those who govern, while foolishly hoping that the membership remembers nothing.

What feat will Grand Lodge undertake regarding document 10?

Yours in fraternity,

Dear R W Bro Barry Lyons,

On 4 October 2015 I received an email of which its content was very pertinent to the charge of unmasonic conduct against the current Grand Master regarding the malicious prosecution against me over the past seven years. My first knowledge of blatant victimisation was the Kangaroo Court of 18 March 2009.

Your instruction that Grand Lodge will not hold an investigation as, I am not a subscribing member is incredulous.

Following below, is the email which I had referenced when compiling prima facia material for the attention of the Grand Lodge Board. Please also find attached the Grand Lodge mediation report of June 2008 which Grand Lodge unbelievably alleges to not having a copy.

I have provided numerous opportunities for the governance of Irish Masonry to be open and transparent. My desire to clear my name has been stonewalled by the trickery and deceitfulness of those who govern. This open letter may neither resolve matters nor bring solution. It does however provide truth and enlightenment. It exposes and confirms that Senior Officers did conspire (November 2006) to character assassinate myself and others whilst I was a Trustee of Freemasons’ Hall Arthur Square during the refurbishment work schedule.

It is noted that of those members mentioned herein the mediation report that Brian Hood, Stewart Hood, Billy Beattie, Tom Gardiner, Alan Askin nor I were Prince Rose Croix Masons. And that Retention Team accomplishments (May 2008) had commenced prior to the conclusion of the Grand Lodge mediation cover-up (June 2008). Your tenure as Grand Secretary over all these events is acknowledged.

Yours in fraternity,

Dear Ronnie,

İ am dismayed at the way your Masonic career was so abruptly concluded and the manner in which you were treated.

As the serving Provincial Grand Lodge of Antrim Secretary attending the foundation stone laying at Portrush Hall on the 17th November 2006, I state the following.

After the celebratory dinner following the laying of the foundation stone a meeting took place and some of those involed were the GM at the time, Eric Waller, the newly appointed GM to be, George Dunlop, the PGM of Antrim, J S Dunlop, the PAGM, J L Frazer and myself.

The discussion revolved around yourself and Brian and Stuart Hood with the conclusion from J S Dunlop that basically the three of you were of nuisance to the Order and that the matter should be dealt with. İ can recall that at that informal meeting, (in which no minutes were recorded), that the only agenda from J S Dunlop was to persue (or in other terms conduct a witch hunt against) yourself and Brian and Stuart Hood. The GM and the GM elect stated that they would back the PGM of Antrim in his actions.

İn subsequent meetings concerning actions against you that İ attended, it was blatently obvious that J S Dunlop’s agenda was to bring charges of unmasonic conduct against the three of you no matter how it was achieved.

Later İ was prevented (contary to our laws and by-laws) in my capacity, as PGS, from attending all the meetings regarding the pursuance of these unmasonic charges as İ stated to J S Dunop on numerous occasions that he was acting outside the Laws and Constitutions of Grand Lodge and the By-Laws of PGL Antrim.

An example being that at a meeting between J S Dunlop, J Dickson (PGL Registrar at the time ) and myself, concerning the Retention Team, that he (J S Dunlop) was in breech of our by-laws, he actually had the audacity to state that he was the PGM and could do what he wanted, İ advised him that this could not take place and he further went on to state that he had a “PGM’s prerogative”. J Dickson actually rang me at home that evening and stated that İ was correct and that the PGM was indeed in breech of our by-laws with his planned actions and indeed he did not have a “PGM’s prerogative”.

J S Dunlop was also not bringing items concerning these unmasonic charges to the PGL BGP for discussion and/or approval. All discussions took place at Cabinet meetings, senior officers homes or hotels, and not all of the cabinet members were aware of the meetings or their agendas.

Although aware of the discussion on you no formal action was sanctioned at any Cabinet meeting nor was I ever asked to enquire as to how a charge of unmasonic conduct could be levied against you. The PGM and his senior officers were meeting with you on a frequent basis on numerous subjects and had ample opportunity to caution or warn you of their alleged concerns, as I had none.

I am aware, through international media reports, that a PSNI fraud investigation into the financial accounts of the PGL of Antrim, expanding to the years of which I Provincial Secretary, is ongoing of which I am willing to facilitate but no contact has been made to me. My concern is that my absence may facilitate some within the Order to hinder open and transparency on issues.

My 50% shareholding to the Whiteabbey Masonic Hall remains unchanged. I never could understand how a substantial asset of PGLA held partly in my name was not and never has been to my knowledge disclosed on the Annual accounts or balance sheets.

Also within your record keeping are;

8. GL will have copy of letter to PGLA (7 October 2009)

9. GL will have a transcript of the High Court hearing (28 Jan 2014)

10. GL will have a transcript of Dunadry Hotel meeting (11 Feb 2009)

11. GL will have copy of my first letter to GL (27 April 2009)

Under Grand Lodge summons I attended to a charge of unmasonic conduct on two occasions, November 2009 and June 2013. Both hearings apparently conducted in accordance to Grand Lodge policy and procedures and the whole process was clearly a judicial one as stated in Grand Lodge documentation. Accordingly, the final hearing should strictly comply with procedures that meet the requirements of a fair hearing. [Article 2.1 issued by GL 13 Sept 2012]

On 27 April 2009 I sought an answer to a simple question but it was not answered. The question remains as valid now as it did then, ‘What assurance can you give to me, that I will receive a fair hearing in Grand Lodge.’ Obviously you did not answer as you knew fairness and truth was not on the agenda of Grand Lodge. But now, let’s get fair and let truth prevail.

With High Court proceedings now concluded and the subsequent discoveries attained from Grand Lodge on same I or someone on my behalf will present a charge of unmasonic conduct against the current Grand Master. During his tenure as Deputy Grand Master Douglas T Grey presided and directed over matters which resulted in my membership being suspended and my character sullied.

His authority while in office directed a Malicious Prosecution on me despite him being fully conversant to detailed relevant and pertinent material facts. In addition his position as chair of the Grand Lodge Grievance Committee enhanced the opportunity to manipulate gratuitous action on me under the pretext of Grand Law 35.

The course that followed need never have occurred if a fair hearing on 30 March 2009 in Newry with Provincial Antrim Officers had been held. There was no fair hearing in Newry as no one was there to represent me or express my concurrence to the Provincial Grand Lodge Antrim Grievance Committee findings. Yet at the conclusion of this Newry venue kangaroo court arrangement, a prima facie case was allegedly established to enable an immediate prohibition. Nor was natural justice applied anytime thereafter as the Deputy Grand Master could have interceded and stopped the flawed process. Nolle prosequi is the only judicial ruling which would have been procedurally correct in conjunction with the Null and Void decree.

The previous Grand Registrar and current Grand Registrar have both been involved with my prosecution. Also implicated with my prosecution are some current Grand Lodge Board members and all must be removed from participation in progressing a charge on unmasonic conduct pertaining to the Grand Master. Natural justice will and can enable matters to progress without bias.

The vexatious outcome, of a Grand Masters publicly directed Emergency Meeting was announced as Null and Void but the self same perpetrators of the abhorrence extolled at an Antrim Board are given specific instruction to the methodology in how to continue. Grand Lodge Null and Voids an outcome of an Emergency Meeting and yet Grand Lodge instructs Antrim Officers on how to thwart Grand Laws. Subsequently the perpetrators are later then proved guilty but Grand Lodge continued with Machiavellian motive on me while manipulating and concealing what content which was to be presented to the general membership.

I or someone on my behalf will present bone fide evidence and material as listed above, which was gleaned from High Court trial bundles, or documents used from Masonic forums. It was given under oath at High Court hearings that the Laws and Constitution has no provision for an appeal to a prohibition order. This indeed is neither fair nor does it equate to the process of natural justice. Also the edict of no discussion to stop truth being aired at any Masonic boards was not fair as the Antrim Officers, who were subsequently found guilty, had no edict imposed on them to prevent them peddling deceit to many audience’s.

Nor does the Grand Lodge Grievance Committee find any expression in the rules of Grand Lodge but it applied an extraneous influence on a Grand Lodge hearing subcommittee report to the Grand Lodge Board. Again this was not fair as no one represented me at the Board nor was natural justice involved in setting the tariff of punishment. I understand this irregular committee has now been dissolved due to the legal court hearing highlighting its transgressions and deviant nature.

Furthermore, the transcript of High Court proceedings clearly sets out that in Newry on 30 March 2009 that those officers present had amongst themselves settled to Null and Void their infamous meeting of 18 March 2009. However, all those who conspired also left with a new proposed course of action to victimise, persecute and prosecute myself and others. Again, that was not fair as no one represented me nor was any consideration afforded to natural justice.

I also have a testimony by a Past Provincial Officer to comments aired against me after the laying of the foundation dedication ceremony of Portrush Hall. His written account expands to numerous discussions when I, Brian and Stewart Hood are to be pursued as we are deemed a nuisance to Order. These meetings by Senior Officers to conspire against me in combination with the Provincial Grand Lodge Antrim Grievance Committee report findings, which was known beforehand to the Deputy Grand Master in Newry, unambiguously states that no charge was laid during the Kangaroo Court on 18 March 2009. This proof alone exposes that clandestine purpose that was being progressed. All subsequent Masonic action from 30 March 2009 against me was malicious and therefore a fair hearing was never on the agenda. Nor specifically the influential Grand Lodge Grievance Committee / Steering Committee chaired by the self same Deputy Grand Master as he would be instrumental to the continuance of this malicious prosecution.

I hope for Freemasonry worldwide that Officers in Grand Lodge will take moral courage, enact honest governance to expedite resolve upon the misdirection by Douglas T Grey, the Deputy Grand Master on 30 March 2009. If the Deputy Grand Masters consideration was not misdirection then his deliberation to prosecute was malicious, which is unmasonic.

Please advise what manner you desire this due and timely notice of the aforementioned preparation on charge. The engagement or the appointing of external mediation or arbitration I have never objected upon. Failure to keep issues in house and wholly conclude matters will invariably lead to public enquiry. I still advocate the teachings of the plumb line and Freemasonry in general should be seen to be bigger than any one member.

All evidence and material as identified above are from High Court trial bundles or documents used at various Masonic forums. Also numerous documents from Lodges and individuals sent to Grand Lodge and copied to myself for use if required will be available for verification.

I still wait for Grand Lodge to provide me with demit or clearance certificate. Aggravated punishment is not fair. The victimisation of an unattached brother is not fair. Truth not told deprived the Order of a fair hearing.

Yours in fraternity,

W Bro R Wilson (Unattached IC)

Dear Barry Lyons,

Please forward the criteria that Grand Lodge applies concerning the monitoring and review to those sentenced with a tariff ‘suspended at the pleasure of Grand Lodge’ and the date when the protocol was approved by Grand Lodge.

This month, I understand that the Province of Antrim re-introduced a no discussion edict regarding new legal action. Grand Lodge is aware that Mr Justice Weatherup (April 2014) High Court ruling advised that Senior Officers actions did not accord to Grand Lodge Law and that property owned by the Province was an underlying issue. He also commented that in effect there was a Civil War but that it was prudent to refer matters to Grand Lodge.

It is uncertain if Grand Lodge believes it was prudent to enmesh itself in a Masonic Civil War to protect Prince Chapter Masons who corrupted the governance of pure Ancient Masonry. Grand Lodge News publicised a Masonic Church Service on 19 October 2008 which incorporated thanksgiving to the refurbishment of Freemasons’ Hall Arthur Square stating that 107 units use the hall. Now, with just over five years elapsed only 77 units use the hall. Thanks to the revelation of Mr Justice Weatherup, the loss of 30 units can be attributed to the Masonic Civil War, as the reduction coincides directly with the holding and organising of Kangaroo Courts by Senior Antrim Officers who deceived their Province and victimised those who queried their poor governance.

Grand Lodge did not dispute the High Court ruling and thus I informed my Lodge not to seek in having my suspension lifted until Grand Lodge informs an end to hostilities. Since 18 March 2009 I have over five years spent on suspension at the pleasure of Grand Lodge and I have no desire to belong to an Order that is in war. That said, I have a right not to be indefinitely suspended and thus I have requested the criteria to be applied.

Discredited Senior Officers as disclosed via the 2008 June Grand Lodge Mediation report continue to be promoted. It is manifest that guilty unmasonic conduct does not prevent promotion within Grand Lodge or Provincial Office. Guilty men judging others is not compatible to Masonic teachings nor to any normal society that has moral standing. However, at a Grand Lodge hearing John Dickson the Provincial Grand Master of Antrim designate was proven guilty of unmasonic conduct by Rodger Mathews who is now the Provincial Grand Master designate of Down. John Hunter the Grand Registrar and Richard Ensor the Grand Treasurer of the same Grand Lodge hearing panel obviously have an obtuse understanding of Masonic Landmarks to permit such a farce. In as much as they also proved John S Dunlop guilty of unmasonic conduct during his tenure as the Provincial Grand Master of Antrim and his Provincial Assistant Grand Master Jack O Dunlop, but they did not reveal or make any reference to the Masonic Civil War crimes.

Maybe the direction to permit such a sham was gleaned from Paul Kenny the Assistant Grand Secretary for Instruction who had unmasonic conduct proven against him before his promotion into Grand Lodge. It is noted that Jim McFarland the Grand Secretary for Instruction gained his promotion in Grand Lodge after he willingly, without objection, counted the Kangaroo Court voting slip ballot held on me. Promotion to him in Grand Lodge, despite his participation as being contrary to the Grand Masters personal instruction that no Antrim Officer should be in attendance on the 18 March 2009. Masonic Instruction exemplified by Gamekeepers turned Poachers. Nor did Jim McFarland’s participation in the Kangaroo Court proceedings exclude him from being promoted to Most Wise Sovereign within Prince Chapter Masonry.

You do recall that it was Prince Chapter Masons which first degraded and sullied my character in Dublin on 11 February 2009 a day after John S Dunlop, as the then Provincial Grand Master, wrote his resignation letter to the Grand Master. John Dickson and John S Dunlop now proven of unmasonic conduct were without impediment, both then promoted to Most Wise Sovereign. Unmasonic conduct evidently is not a hindrance to members within Prince Chapter Masonry or to joining it as Paul Kenny was deemed worthy to be accepted. Whereas I, then in good Masonic standing, was dishonoured a month previous by the self same Prince Chapter Masons that used Craft Masonry to publicly victimise me on 18 March 2009 at a Kangaroo Court. Such accomplishment by despotic leaders in civil wars is not new, but now it is the modus operandi in Irish masonry.

An exemption to a Senior Officer having guilty unmasonic conduct proved against him and also being a member of Prince Chapter Masonry is Jack O Dunlop Provincial Assistant Grand Master of Antrim. It is perceivable that his alleged friends did not assume him trustworthy to hold him in a closer bond. However, no Prince Chapter Mason with proven unmasonic conduct within the Craft has ever been reported at any Grand Lodge communication. But neither has any Grand Lodge or Provincial Officers name and their offence been disclosed to the membership either, unlike how my name was openly and transparently aired. Nor has High Court hearings or its subsequent ruling been reported either. No discussion, no discussion….

Gabriel Haughton of Dublin Metropolitan area, who holds no Grand Lodge or Provincial office, was appointed by Grand Lodge to be the Chairman of my rehearing. With your permission he met me (October 2012) but subsequently stepped down as Chairman and from the entire hearing committee as he was a mason of integrity. Maybe he was unable to reconcile the protection of Senior Officers who hold Kangaroo Court and be party to the continuing victimizing on me. Neither was he a Prince Chapter Mason and thus I suppose he was able to remain true to his Craft obligations.

Grand Lodge is not well served by Douglas T Grey the Deputy Grand Master as he has overseen all wrongdoings by his fellow Prince Chapter Masons whom he has shielded. Along with the Grand Lodges of Scotland and England he, as Acting Grand Master, recently signed the Berlin Declaration (August 2014) to uphold long standing Masonic principals, but I would not place a teddy into his care.

Will Grand Lodge permit discussion on victims or are they null and void?

Yours, and victimised,

Ronnie Wilson.

Dear Barry Lyons,

Masonic Civil War and the course of Kangaroo Court to High Court.

Just because I tell the truth, that does not make me an enemy of Masonic principals. I always upheld pure Ancient Masonry and stood firmly against those who assaulted the tenets and teachings on the obligations which I freely gave assent.

After a Masonic Kangaroo Court, on 18 March 2009, was held by John S. Dunlop the Provincial Grand Master aided by John Dickson the Provincial Registrar, by the public direction of the Grand Master George Dunlop in February 2009, I continually expressed that I sought reinstatement and show the false allegations fabricated on me. Since the promotion in Provincial and Grand Lodge level, those Antrim officers including Jack O. Dunlop the Provincial Assistant Grand Master who jointly organised and held the Kangaroo Court with subsequent concealment on matters, it remains that the Grand Lodge is unwilling to acknowledge its failings. Rather, it governs on a foundation of self protection, deceit and moral bankruptcy to the detriment of Irish Freemasons and Freemasonry worldwide.

I had attended in the public gallery, January 2014, the High Court hearing brought by father and son, Stewart and Brian Hood against the Grand Lodge of Ireland regarding a breach of contract. In April 2014 Mr. Justice Weatherup ruled the no breach of contract by the Masonic Order could be established and that those who brought the case are not entitled to have their 2009 dues repaid. His substantial reserved judgement extended to decree that the Laws and Constitution had on several occasions not been adhered by the Senior Officers of the Order pertaining to matters from 30 March 2009 onward.

While those who brought the Masonic Order to High Court seeking natural justice may be disappointed in not establishing a breach of contract and the repayment of their dues I am unable to perceive how the Order can be at ease with the entirety of the ruling. This ruling has informed of a Masonic Civil War in the Antrim Province and of Senior Officers in variance to the Laws and Constitution.

With time elapsed to reflect on the ruling I can identify as to why father and son were unable to establish their case. Masonic documents were shredded, Masonic meetings were held without minutes or notes, Senior Officers with selective memory loss definitely would contribute to the obstruction of truth from those who brought the case. A breach of contract was not established but the Masonic Order is unable and unwilling to advise the membership in an open and transparent manner the shallow success it attained in the High Court nor does it refute Mr. Justice Weatherups submission, for the public domain, of the Civil War in Freemasonry. Nor did he rule on the Masonic Kangaroo Court as the legal writ applied only to matters from 30 March 2009 onward. Nor was the High court involved with inappropriate monetary issues and dubious assertions by Cabinet Officers regarding Rosemary Street Masonic Hall.

The Belfast Telegraph published an article which is a fair report on the High Court proceedings- http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/northern-ireland/freemasons-lose-civil-war-battle-30166392.html

Accepting the High Court ruling on matters I equally accept that the Order is evasive to the revelations aired. If the Grand Lodge of England and Grand Lodge of Scotland can continue in amity with the Grand Lodge of Ireland, via tripartite meetings and plan to celebrate the 300th anniversary of same when the enemy within has been exposed, then I no longer desire to be a member within those fraternal societies. The elephants in the room, wearing golden braid, fool only themselves as recent Grand Lodge meetings reflect that over half of the attending members chose to abstain on issues maliciously presented by Grand Lodge Officers.

To aid my defence at Grand Lodge hearings I had sought disclosure on the subject of Meditation which the Grand Master had introduced, February 2009, when he directed his incompetent Antrim Officers to act against me, while knowingly aware that the Grand Lodge Mediation process had established the extent of their deliberate transgressions on fellow masons. I fail to comprehend why the Provincial Secretary was sacked when an irregular Committee of Inspection form was falsely introduced by the Antrim Officers who attend Grand Lodge Board meetings. Never the less I was informed by Grand Lodge that it does not hold a copy on what I required and that as the Assistant Grand Master, Leslie V. Johnston had died it was within his receipt. Belatedly after my show trial I attempted to garner from the author of the Mediation Report but he was instructed by Grand Lodge not to provide it.

However, please find attached a copy of the Mediation Report for Grand Lodge files which illuminates how John S. Dunlop when he was Provincial Grand Master led his cohort of Cabinet dissidents to victimise anyone who would query him. While matters contained therein would have been of my benefit the shenanigans of hierarchy who do anything to protect the immorality of marauding Prince Masons who dictate on Craft workings. More importantly it reconfirms in conjunction with the High Court findings that I no longer desire to be reinstated. Grand Lodge of Ireland has nothing to offer me with its present governance of gagging edicts which are noted in the enclosed chairman’s Mediation Report. Antrim Senior Offices had deliberately misled the Antrim membership and Grand Lodge Officers conspired to enable the guilty go unpunished.

Furthermore, an Order which holds Kangaroo Courts and rewards the perpetrators is not for me. A Fraternal Order on which a High Court Judge has ruled that it is Senior Officers who are in variance to the Laws and Constitution and that the wrong doers remain in office is an Order which I am unable to endorse. The governance by the present Grand Lodge of Ireland regime is not compatible to Masonic edification.

No longer restricted by gagging orders I continue to display my Masonic certificates at home with pride as I am not ashamed of how I dutifully served the Order guided by my obligations and adherence to the Laws and Constitutions. Peculiar it will remain that with honesty and integrity intact I am able to tell anyone of my time in Irish Freemasonry but those in governance cower at the mention of my name. The predetermined Antrim voting slip also remains as a framed artefact to my tenure along with the recollection of John Dickson promotion to Provincial Grand Master and his claim to have been intimidated by the sight of his own voting slip at my show trial. That incident Grand Lodge is unable to null and void and brings much mirth when truth is told.

As a trustee of Freemasons’ Hall, Arthur Square I coined the phrase ‘for the benefit of all who enter’ which is engraved on the balcony above the front porch. My time as a trustee was beneficial, successful and positive and obviously that displeases the hierarchy each and every time they enter Arthur Square Hall while Rosemary Street Hall mirrors the decline, apathy and mismanagement of Irish Freemasonry in general.

Maybe the Grand Almoner will embark to the needs of the victims of the Masonic Civil War?

Yours, and victimised,

Ronnie Wilson.

27 September 2013

Dear Mr. Barry Lyons,

My offer to Grand Lodge to engage in external mediation or arbitration still remains.

I acknowledge receipt of ‘Official Record’ (Sub-Committee version to me) dated 20th September 2013 and would express my consideration that it would be wise for Grand Lodge to repeat previous practises in determining the current process to be flawed.

It is noted that Grand Lodge has elapsed 85 days on disclosure of an Official Record with less than 14 days receipt of same prior to the forthcoming Grand Lodge Communication. In recognition that the ‘official report’ presented to me will be different than the ‘Chairman’s Report’ presented to the Grand Lodge Board I am oblivious to detect were privilege begins and bias ends in a reputed process of natural justice. I do however detect the rhetoric in that a report from the Chairman to the Grand Lodge Board (at variance to what I received) will be introduced as the ‘official report’ on which Grand Lodge will adjudicate my penalty at sentencing.

The Official Record states under heading of Important Disclaimers, in the second paragraph:

This document is separate from and should not be confused with the report compiled by the Chairman for presentation to the Grand Lodge Board of General Purposes and ultimately to the Grand Lodge outlining the decisions and recommendations made by the Committee and the reasons for the same.

This is a clear declaration that the Grand Lodge Sub-Committee Official Record is not presented to the Grand Lodge Board of General Purposes. In fact it is a wholly different report complied singularly by the Chairman which is presented to the Grand Lodge Board. Clause 10 of Guidance on Procedures as issued with summons would rule that it is the Sub-Committees findings and proposed recommendation be presented to the full Grand Lodge Board of Purposes. No reference is given to a chairman compiling a different report of which, to date I am not in possession of.

The Guidance on Procedure sheet received with summons is as contained on page 11 within the Policy and Procedure in Respect of Charges of Un-Masonic document issued 13 September 2008. To present anything other than an Official Record is in breach of clause 4.1 and 4.2 and subsequently misdirects the Grand Lodge Board.

I hereby formally request disclosure of the Chairman’s unorthodox / irregular presentation to the Grand Lodge Board. I respectfully request the minute of the Grand Lodge Board at which the Chairman’s report was presented and the consequent deliberations of the Boards conclusions.

Notwithstanding any breach, it is noted that the Grand Lodge Board has now considered matters which are scant of any specific detail to any charge proved and probably viewed with rose tainted glasses to enamour the accusers. In consequence of which the Grand Lodge Board is misdirected, thus the correlation of same is ventured for Grand Lodge.

It is erroneous that the Official Report states that I am guilty of all Charges and that no real defence was made. The misdirection on numerous points are by the authors of the unconfirmed Official Report and on this premise instils less confidence in the Chairman’s account to the Grand Lodge Board.

The Sub-Committee have by self admission in the Official Report cited that several allegations were struck out or ruled as being not unmasonic. Guilty of all Charges is contra to what is clearly reported and several allegations are completely absent from the content of the Official Report. It is incomprehensible that snippets or a phrase are ruled as not unmasonic and yet not a single word, nor any phrase or snippet is identified or ruled to be unmasonic. To proceed, in my absence without an opportunity to rebut the verdict ranks of yet another Kangaroo Court style proceeding.

Masonry is perfect. It is not corruptible nor does it corrupt. Unfortunately not all it members are perfect. Some are already corrupt and some become corrupted. It would seem that the rot is at the top and has strangle hold on the rest. If I am to be ruled as not perfect due a balance of probability then I fail to comprehend why Masonic sex offenders receive a lesser penalty.

I understand that the report is not a minute and the inclusion of omissions, here to follow, will not alter the recorded verdict. However, the inclusion of omissions would present a more balanced and clearer understanding to my hearing. All reports should be fair and equitable to what transpired.

Page 1
It is omitted that I had attended to summons on 7 May 2013
It is omitted that a submission presented at a different hearing had caused adjournment to my hearing.
It is omitted that I had attended to another summons on 15 May 2013
It is omitted what ruling was given to the submission from a different hearing which permitted me to be summoned again.
It is omitted as to reason why my case adjourned again.
It is omitted that there are seven accusers all whom are Provincial Officers in Antrim.
It is omitted that four accusers failed to attend on any dates of any summons.
It is omitted that three Provincial Officers of Antrim, had been proved guilty of unmasonic conduct due to their behaviour against me.
It is noted that the Committee Secretary has not verified any record of the proceedings with my assistant.
It is omitted that submission 9.1 which verifies that my assistant had been the subject of ‘unwarranted action’ by some of the self same accusers and that Grand Lodge had given an apology.

Page 2
It is noted that period of suspension is not defined and exceeds prior penalty imposed which questions the integrity of those proceedings and subsequent sentencing.

Page 3
It is noted that contemporaneous notes are only those of the Secretary which clarifies why other panel members had not taken notes.
It is noted that the Chairman has compiled a different report for presentation to GL BoGP and GL and has not been disclosed to me.
It is noted that my charge arose in context of a broader dispute, which I had not introduced.

Page 4
It is omitted that proceedings exhausted five hours.
It is omitted that the Chairman was the third chairman to be appointed.
It was omitted that allegations are nearly 5 years on duration of process.
It is repeatedly omitted that my submissions are irrelevant to the hearing, or, are for another forum which was never disclosed. This included submission 5.1 regarding a GL document to the proven guilt of three Antrim Officers as being also irrelevant.
It is noted that accusers standard of proof was on balance of probably to be offended, or disparaged etc which is subjective.
It is noted that breach of Grand Lodge or Provincial By Law is subjective to same proof.
It is noted that proceedings are ‘de novo’. This was a new hearing but all correlating documentation from Grand Lodge was to a rehearing.

Page 5
It is noted, that of thirty four submissions only submissions 1.5 and 6.1 are commented on within this Official Report.
1.5 affirms that this is new hearing and not a rehearing.
6.1 affirms that attendees at GL meetings do not know what they are voting on, and I adduce that their contribution to justice and governance is apathetic.
It is omitted that the ruling by the Chairman, had a contribution by the secretary to submission 5.4.but is not commented on.
It is noted that the secretary aired his legal profession on this submission.
It is omitted that my submission, of the PGL Antrim Complaint Commission document (which was denied under disclosure request 3.1) is not commented on.
It is omitted that the Antrim Complaint Commission findings had established that no charge had been laid on me. I informed the Sub-Committee that I was pleased that at least 3 more members are now enlightened as to the calibre of my accusers and of those who are leading the Order. It is omitted that the Chairman had commented that it was ‘sharp reading’ and for another forum.
It is omitted that 13 disclosures were sought to aid a fair trail and that none were provided by Grand Lodge or the Sub-Committee panel.
It is noted that only disclosure 1.2 was ruled upon. The ruling appears to be contradictory to the context of previously self expressed broader dispute. (page 3)
It is omitted that the framed document was the pre determined outcome voting slip used at a Kangaroo Court organised and held on 18 March 2009 by PGL Antrim.
It is omitted that Grand Lodge had failed to return the exhibit retained from 2009 trial.

Page 10
I had forwarded an apology regarding Ben Beaumont but I did not reference him as my legal advisor or to his occupation.

It is omitted the apologies of 5 others whom I specifically referred.

It is omitted that Sub-Committee recessed for three minutes to adjudicate.

It was the Chairman who gave mitigation as I did not prosper any nor was asked to present mitigating circumstances.

Comments referenced to punishment were not articulated in my presence.

This concludes my comment to unconfirmed Official Report.

I would accept the Chairman’s generalisation that my business acumen, integrity, diligence and open and transparent manner probably does not suit the governance of Irish Freemasonry. That said, Freemasonry has not corrupted me.

The precedent is now established within Grand Lodge Boards that accusers are required to retire from proceedings while deliberations are underatken. Please advise that this prudent step also applies to Grand Lodge Communications which would equally extend to all members previously and currently involved in matters on me. Refer to Ruling 6.1 on page 5 to ensure no bias on voting.

As this was a new hearing (de novo) I may make application under GL 16 for a rehearing. I remain available to attend the rehearing of the 2009 hearing which evidently was ruled by Sub-Committee as not of their remit.

What is the provision for my attendance or having representation to sentencing on 5 October 2013 if the intention of Grand Lodge is to disregard natural justice procedure and continue whilst aware that the Grand Lodge Board has been misdirected.

Is the new Registrar, the same J. Hunter who was a member of the 2009 Grand Lodge flawed hearings?

Yours sincerely,

Ronnie Wilson.
