TO
ALL FREEMASONS OF THE EARTH:
Please
know : that the Grand Council of the Order Of The Gran
Oriente Espaņol has authorized illustrious Brother Jose Rizal,
Master Mason, to the effect that he can represent us before
the Freemasonry of the Grand Orient of France and before the
honorable Lodges of Germany. This representation is granted
to illustrious Brother Rizal for him to greet in our name
all the Masonic powers that have relations with the Gran Oriente
Espaņol, and also to present to the Glorious Orient and the
Grand Lodges, which do not have a guarantor of amity or equal
representative of our Grand Council, the sincere guaranty
of our fraternal sentiments toward the Grand Masters, high
dignitaries, and members of their respective Masonic jurisdictions.
We
pray that our brethren be good enough in fraternally receiving
our Brother Rizal, and that they accept our heartfelt greetings
and best wishes for the prosperity and greatness of the Masonic
Family.
The
Great Architect of the Universe wishes that this visit of
our Brother Rizal to the Valleys of Germany and France be
a new fraternal pledge and that it serve to establish for
all time the relations of peace and solidarity among Masonic
powers that he is going to visit (those whose treaties of
amity with us have not yet been signed) and the Gran Oriente
Fspaņol.
Given
in Madrid on the 3rd day of January, 1891.

Grand Secretary General
