The work of Freemasonry is conducted in what
is called the Lodge. The word lodge as used in
Masonry has several different significations, as when we
speak of "A Lodge," meaning any lodge; another when we speak
of a lodge being opened or closed when we mean
the symbolic Lodge; again when we speak of a
particular society of Masons, as when we say
"Cade-Rothwell Lodge No. 1151"
There are also three different
Lodges, the Entered Apprentice's Lodge; the
Fellow-Craft's Lodge, and the Master-Mason's
Lodge. Yet all three of the Lodges, though separate in
their opening and closing, as well as in
their respective work, are one. The
one contains the three as will be well
understood by the skillful craftsman.
