1835ref. 496A slim book of 135 x 215 mm with 68 pp. In Dutch. Original red hardback. Two rectangles with the space between space filled with floral patterns on both covers, the word "WETBOEK" appearing on the front cover and a Masonic symbol on the back cover. A sticker, which seems decades old, has been placed on the spine. A few words have been penned in black ink with a feather by A. Canneman on April 2, 1859, with a Masonic signature. An esoteric engraving on p.3. 44 "articles" and a Bijladen at the end. This booklet is actually a document from 1835 that establishes the rules and constitutions for the higher degrees (above the Master's degree) within Freemasonry in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It regulates the operation of the Grand Chapter and its associated chapters, often associated with the Modern or French Rite. It contains the rules for the organization and procedure of the so-called "high degrees" (the fourth through seventh degrees in the 19th-century French rite). The Order of Freemasons under the Grand Chapter of the High Degrees (founded in 1803) is a Dutch obedience that builds on the "blue" or symbolic lodge.
