Excerpt from Odd Fellows Monitor and Guide: Containing History of the Degree of Rebekah, and Its Teachings, Emblems of the Order, According to Classification of Sovereign Grand Lodge, and Teachings of Ritual
The success which my first volume, the Brotherhood, issued about fifteen years ago, has met, and the high encomiums passed upon it by my brethren of high rank in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of America, as well as its extensive circulation, have induced me to send forth this volume, which I entitle the Monitor and Guide, and in which I give the emblems of the Order according to the present classification, and a more exten sive presentation of the lessons the emblems are intended to teach to Odd Fellows and their Wives.

The success which my first volume, the Brotherhood, dssued about fifteen years ago, has met, and the high encomiums passed upon it by my brethren of high rank in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of A merica, as well as its extensive circulation, have inducec Tme to send forth this volume, which I entitle the Monilor and Guu Uand in which I give the emblems of the j Order according to the present classification, and a more extensive presentation of the lessons the emblems are intended to teach to Odd Fellows and their wives. I present the history of the Degree of Rebekah, giving its origin, with a reference to some of the beauties of this grand adjunct to Odd Fellowship, which does indeed unfold the mysteries of our Order to the wives of its members, and discloses the grand objects of our Fraternity. Since the legislation of the Grand Lodge of the United States in 1868, there has been a separate organization of this branch of the Order under charters by the State Grand bodies. In 1872 there was an enactment of the G. L. of the U. S. requiring reports of Rebekah Lodges to their respective State Grand bodies and from the several Grand bodies to the G. L. of the U. S-, and although this department of Odd Fellowship is yet in its infancy it is destined to become a great power in our beloved Order, and hence we conceive the propriety of such a book as the one we are sending out, designed especially for our women.
