The Cornelius Hedges Story
This is an edited version of an original manuscript "Cornelius Hedges Uncommon Hero of the Common Life" provided by Brother Thomas E. White to the Grand Lodge of Montana.
Among the primary tools used were the voluminous journals kept by Most Worshipful Brother Cornelius Hedges. The edited version includes corrections and additions to text and incorporates photos and associated graphics. The general subject is of interest to the Masons of Montana and the need to make this available is a testimony to the value of the manuscript as it was meant to be read and studied! Beyond the subject matter, this work contains a fabulous and scholarly history of Freemasonry in Montana and the development of Montana into a State; now profusely populated with illustrations.
The intent behind this project was to preserve the manuscript and intent of Thomas E. White and, provide a great Masonic history book. The book has been scanned, edited and copyrighted by the Grand Lodge A. F. & A. M. of Montana by Reid L. Gardiner, Grand Secretary, with the intent that it can be available in book form and or used for on-screen reading enjoyment. Certainly, it serves as an electronic research treasure.
