Information
In Ancient Craft Masonry there were three degrees to
include the Holy Royal Arch. The Holy Royal Arch was conferred upon on Masters
of Lodges Only. Today the degree has been separated and is part of the York
Rite. It is in the Royal Arch Degree that the “Lost Word” of a Master Mason is
recovered. These degrees complete the Ancient Craft Masonry that was begun when
the candidate first entered the inner door of a Masonic Lodge.
