Oklahoma Edict on Arkansas Lapses: Amity Restored

The edict issued on October 31, 2016 by the now immediate Past Grand Master of Oklahoma suspending Masonic amity with the Grand Lodge of Arkansas has turned out to be short lived. The assembled voting members at the MW Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Oklahoma's annual communication last weekend, November 11-12,  failed to affirm PGM Dudley "Ridge" Smith's Decision No. 3, and so it has been rescinded with the election of MW Richard Allison as their new Grand Master.

Regular, recognized Masons in those jurisdictions may again inter-visit.
