Hussey G. St. Claire past member; [abstracted by transcriber: he
appealed a
charge that had been brought by G.B. Philips for "gross unmasonic
conduct, to mislead and defraud" and "bring our time-honored
institution into disgrace" by making "merchandise of Masonry, to
accomplish selfish &
venal purposes" while acting as agent of the Mohawk Valley Insurance
Co. A
Grand Lodge committee investigated and found that Hussey was an agent
of the Insurance co., that the company failed & those insured lost
their
money. However the committee found no evidence that Hussey knew that
the
insurance co. was going to fail, or that he acted in bad faith. They
ruled that
the Eagle Lodge expulsion be reversed & Hussey be restored to full
membership.]
