Albany Masonic Hall, 67 Corning Place, Albany, NY
Brothers and Guests:
The pleasure of your company is requested at the meeting of the Albany Sovereign Chapter of Rose Croix in joint session with the other coordinant bodies of the Valley of Albany on Thursday, February 16, 2012, which will include a very special lecture by noted local author, Will Martin, on the topic of his book, Benedict Arnold: Legacy Lost (A Ghost Story). Attendance at the meeting will be open to AASR Members only. Brothers, family, and friends are invited and encouraged to attend Mr. Martin’s lecture.
Meeting: 7:30 p.m.
Lecture: 8:00 p.m.
Meet the Author: 8:45 p.m.
Will Martin is an independent psychohistorian who has a special interest in early American history. Benedict Arnold: Legacy Lost (A Ghost Story) is his first novel. This novel blends a collage of historical facts, characters and plot line into an adventure that offers an answer to the question: “Why did Benedict Arnold betray his country.” Mr. Martin will make a special effort to weave Arnold’s Masonic connections into the fabric of his lecture.
Following the program, all those in attendance will adjourn to the beautiful library and first floor foyer of the Albany Masonic Hall for a time of collation, catered by Chef Ray Gaul, when we will have the opportunity to meet Mr. Martin and further discuss this fascinating program.
Kindly contact John W. Scott, 32°, MSA, Secretary at scottydawg2000@aol.com or (518) 283-1168 with any questions. You are encouraged to invite your Brothers, family, and friends to join you for this exciting evening of education and friendship.
