Excerpt from Digest of the Laws of the Independent Order of Odd-Fellows, and Compend of the Legislation of the Grand Lodge of the United States: Arranged in the Form of an Index to the Proceedings of That Right Worthy Body In lieu of the ordinary Index, which, however carefully prepared, is for the most part defective, and unavailable as a ready reference, there has been added a copious Analytical Index, in which will be found combined the ordinary reference, with a detailed analysis of every subject, considered and determined under its appropriate head. This Index will, it is confidently believed, serve the two-fold purpose of a Digest of the Laws and Decisions and a reference to the preper authority.
