<b><font size=3>Man shot to death in club's ritual</font></b><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.newsday.com/news/local/longisland/ny-2dex33701298mar09,0,661203.story?coll=ny-top-span-headlines">newsday.com</a><br />
<br />
A Medford man was killed inside the basement of a Masonic temple in Patchogue last night during a ritual when a member of the lodge shot him in the head with a gun that was supposed to contain blanks, Suffolk homicide detectives said.<br />
<br />
William James, 47, was pronounced dead at the scene at 15 Oak Street shortly after the 8:40 p.m. shooting, said Det. Lt. Jack Fitzpatrick.<br />
<br />
James and another man whom Fitzpatrick would not identify were part of a ritual to be inducted into the fellowcraft club, which one Long Island representative for the group said is a section that performs social activities for the organization in Freemasonry, a system of knowledge that dates back to ancient Egypt.<br />
<br />
About six people were present when James was shot. No one was arrested and police would not identify the shooter.<br />
<br />
Fitzpatrick said a member pointed a gun at James' head as part of the promotion ritual, and that another member was supposed to strike a garbage can to mimic the explosion of the gun once it was fired. But, Fitzpatrick said, the .38 caliber semi-automatic pistol contained bullets, not blanks.<br />
<br />
"Apparently, this ritual has been conducted for a few years at this lodge," Fitzpatrick said, adding that there were two guns present - one carrying real bullets and another carrying blanks, and that the shooter may have used the wrong gun. "He was being inducted into another group within the lodge."<br />
<br />
Details of the incident were sketchy last night. But Andrew Boracci, a spokesman for the 18 lodges in Suffolk County, which contain about 6,000 members, said the temple's tylers, or guards, normally screen every person entering the building for any metal objects. And, he said, non-members are not allowed into the ceremonies.<br />
<br />
"How the hell a gun got in there I don't know," Boracci said.<span class="bigquote">”</span></div><div align="right" class="ttname"><noindex><a href="/trailtalk/showname.php?id=Violin&rp=%2Ftrailtalk%2Fthread%2F25246%2C-1.php" class="bold">Violin</a></noindex><br>12:16:27 PM<br>3/09/04<br></div></div><hr class="thin">

<br />
Philippines - The country’s freemasons have endorsed the candidacy of President Arroyo, whom they declared as part of the Masonic family because her maternal grandfather was a member of the brotherhood, it was learned Sunday. <br />
<br />
The endorsement was made by the Most Worshipful Roberto Q. Pagotan, Grand Master, at the 88th Annual Communication of the Freemasons of the Philippines in Cagayan de Oro City keynoted by Mrs. Arroyo. <br />
<br />
In his welcome remarks, Pagotan said that the group “claims with pride a special kinship” with the President as her grandfather, Juan Macaraeg was a freemason. <br />
<br />
“As his granddaughter, Her Excellency belongs to the extended family of masons and all of us have the duty to give you the fraternity’s love, care and protection….Your Excellency, you belong to the Masonic family. Our brothers and sisters welcome you will full affection,” he said. <br />
<br />
He said that perhaps no other grouping is as loyal to the Republic of the Philippines as the brotherhood as it has produced three presidents: Emilio Aguinaldo, Manuel Quezon and Manuel Roxas. <br />
<br />
The President, who has attended previous freemason engagements in Manila and in Nueva Ecija, expressed gratitude for being recognized as a “family” member and said she had learned much about the brotherhood through her grandfather’s books which had been passed on to her mother, the late First Lady Eva Macapagal.<span class="bigquote">”</span></div><div align="right" class="ttname"><noindex><a href="/trailtalk/showname.php?id=viOLin&rp=%2Ftrailtalk%2Fthread%2F25246%2C-1.php" class="bold">viOLin</a></noindex><br>4:04:45 PM<br>4/26/04<br></div></div><hr class="thin">
