| Summary | "Ritual of the Order of the Eastern Star" is a ceremonial manual likely written in the late 19th century. This text serves as a guide for the rituals, organizational structure, and membership of the Order of the Eastern Star, an organization related to Freemasonry. It outlines the roles of various officers, the process of opening and closing meetings, and the specific ceremonies involved in initiation and installation. At the start of the book, the introduction provides a historical context for the Order's establishment, highlighting the formation of the General Grand Chapter in 1876. The opening portion includes essential regulations, memberships criteria, and the duties of officers, establishing a clear framework for the proceedings of the chapters. Additionally, it details the various degrees within the order and the significant figures represented in the rituals, setting the stage for a structured and meaningful organization dedicated to charity, truth, and loving-kindness within the Masonic framework.
