Story of Les Elus Parfaits, the Mother-ecossais Lodge of Bordeaux

This volume begins with he Constitutions and original Statutes of the Ordre des Chevaliers Hospitaliers et Militaires de Saint-Jean de Jerusalem, written about 1743. After these come the letters addressed to the Elus Parfaits by Bro. Lamolere de Feuillas, in 1746; the famous 1750 letter of Petit du Boulard; copies of letters sent by Dupin Deslezes to Rousillon; and a report dated 1754 on the installation of an Architecture lodge at Bordeaux, which showed that the Elus Parfaits knew of the Architect degrees only at a late date. In addition there is a very curious document written partly in Hebrew, and the very moving draft of an address given by a Grand Master on leaving the Chair.
