SummaryResumen

According to the *New York dispatch* of September 11, 1881, the Dominican Republic has functioned as an independent political government since 1844 and maintained undisputed Masonic jurisdiction on the island of Santo Domingo for twenty years without recognition. The Dominican Grand Orient—which controls a Symbolic Grand Lodge, a Grand Chapter R. Croix, a Grand Consistory, and a Supreme Council—argues that its long-standing possession legitimizes its acts, unlike Colon, which is a Spanish province and a dependent existence incompatible with sovereignty.

Según el *New York dispatch* del 11 de septiembre de 1881, la República Dominicana se rige como gobierno político independiente desde 1844 y ha sostenido una jurisdicción masónica incontestada en la isla de Santo Domingo durante veinte años sin reconocimiento exterior. El Gran Oriente Dominicano —que rige una Gran Logia Simbólica, un Gran Capítulo Rosa-Cruz, un Gran Consistorio y un Supremo Consejo— sostiene que su prolongada posesión legitima sus actos, a diferencia de Colón, que es provincia española y cuya existencia dependiente pugna con la soberanía.

(thus ranking as the twenty-fifth), by five Grand

Inspectors General, 33d degree. At that time

there were working in that Republic, in the is

land of Santo Dommgo, of which Hayti occupies

a part, a Grand Lodge, a Chaper Rose Croix,

and a Grand Consistory. No power, for twenty

years, has disputed its jurisdiction, and yet it

is without recognition and representation.

The Supreme Council of Colon, which had

been previously formed, was for Colon and'

the West Indian Islands,” of which Santo Do

mingo formed one. It would therefore come

under that jurisdiction. It was created

without the consent of that Supreme power,

yet its claims for independence and recognition

are many and forcible. The Dominican Repub

lic claims, that since 1844, it has been an inde

pendent political government, while Colon is a

Srovinee of Spain, and therefore that depen

ent existence is incompatible with sovereignity

in all matters, social and otherwise. That Colon

itself held a questionable existence, and is as

yet quite young, dating 27th of Nov., 1859. That

the installation of all subordinate bodies was

executed by members from the Supreme Coun

cil at Charleston. Tho Supreme Council has

been, and is on fraternal relations with the Do

minican Grand Orient, which controls a Sym

bolic Grand Lodge, a Grand Chapter R. Croix,

A QlSai £oasistory, and a Supreme Council.

That lias held 'isdigputed possession for

twenty years. That its acts, by prescription,

have become legitimized.
