Ah thanks bro dfreybur. But I think I just only need to stick to the UGLE then I'm fine.

When talking about the warrants of lodge, I visited a very historical lodge last Monday and their lodge warrant is just like the things that we can see in the museum, very oldish but prestigious. The warrant is issued by the Grand Lodge of England in 1777. This is quite shocked for me to see it...

Grand Lodge laws... Interesting.
