Good afternoon, and to any and all members of The Order living in America, a Happy Independence Day to you. And just to make sure we don’t forget, Happy Bastille Day to all Members of L’ordre de la Grande Serrure.

This week we present an update to an important list maintained by The Order for centuries. Please, as you do every year, commit it to memory so that you may be properly informed at your evening festivities.

This is very pressing, so we’ll have to tell you the story of the true Declaration of Independence another time.
