I am researching York
Rite
and the rituals used by the symbolic degrees of York Rite.
I have
found much information on
The only information on the internet is that a Malcolm C Duncan wrote Duncan' ritual circa 1866.
No information about Duncan.
Can you help me or direct me to sources that may help me?
YOUR CHALLENGE:
1) Identify sources that providebiographical information on "Malcolm C Duncan".
2) Provide an outline of his background.
3) Share this information with your Brothers.

so that the narrative shall win the respect of its enemies ,
and secure the assent and approbation of its friends?
In the first place,
we must begin by a strict definition of the word Masonry.
If we make it synonymous with Freemasonry,
then must we confine ourselves closely to the events
that are connected with the Institution in its present form and organization. …
… No greater honor could accrue to any man
than that of having been the founder
of a new school of Masonic history,
in which the fictions
and loose statements of former writers
would be rejected,
and in which the rule would be adopted
of all inductive science,
— in words that have been chosen as his motto
by a recent powerful investigator of historical truth:
'Not to exceed and not to fall short of facts —
not to add and not to take away.
To state the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth.'"
– Bro. Albert C. Mackey 33°
(History of Freemasonry;
Encyclopedia of Freemasonry,
1917 edition)
—with ourselves, with our social group,
and with the environment in which we live.
"One of the most interesting
and simple ways
to get this message
is
from the mythologies of the Navaho.
Every single detail of the desert
in
which they live has been deified,
and the land has become a holy land
because it is revelatory of mythological entities.
When you recognize
the mythological aspect of Mother Nature,
you have turned nature itself
in to an icon,
into a holy picture,
so that wherever you go,
you’re getting the message that the divine power
is working for you.
"Modern culture has desanctified our landscape
and we think that to go
to the holy land
we have to go to Jerusalem.
The Navaho would say,
'
This is it, and you’re it.' "
-- Joseph Campbell,
Goddesses: Mysteries of the Feminine Divine, p.19
