Freemasonry In Spain.

FREEMASONRY IN SPAIN .

WE have received a very pathetic letter from the Grand Lodge of Spain ( Soberana Gran Logia Simbolica Bspanola ) , held at Madrid , calling attention to the deplorable state of Freemasonry in that country , owing to the intrigues and persecutions of a Clerical Government , chiefly composed of adherents to the doctrines of Lozola . Several leading

Freemasons have been sent to rigorous imprisonment for the most trifling offences , and their lives rendered intolerable by malicious falsehoods promulgated by their enemies . In formally protesting against such a state of affairs , our Brethren express their firm decision to sacrifice their lives and property

rather than submit without a struggle , but consider that the critical situation of the Masonic fraternity in Spain calls for an effacious intervention on the part of Brethren all over the globe . The present situation threatens to deal a mortal blow to

Freemasonry in Spain , and the Grand Lodge hopes that the Brethren in other countries will , on hearing their sound of alarm , pass spontaneously and without delay such resolutions of protest as they may think fit , for morally assisting them in their trouble and struggle against their opponents .

This letter was senb to the Editor of this Journal , and we are not aware whether or no a similar communication has been

addressed to the Grand Lodge of England , but in any case , whilst deeply sympathising with our Spanish Brethren , it is difficult to see what can be done in such a delicate matter . However , we consider it our duty to bring the subject before our readers .
