I have added the years of constitution so as to make the list complete , and supplement the information by reproducing the list of Military Lodges on the roll of A . n . 1813 , " Moderns , " prior to the Union . Some of these lodges were in England at the time , ancl others , possibly , abroad ;" and all , excepting those with a t , were struck off the register of the lodges at the Union of December 1813 , as also all the foregoing forty-three American lodges ! Many of the latter , however , had previously been working under their own local constitutions , and should have been struck . off the roll of English lodges long before ; however , as they had not returned their warrants , or intimated that they had left the Grand Lodge of England , I presume the English authorities still retained them on the register .
