Credit for the production of this book is assigned in the foreword to the Hon. Edward R. Finch, Judge of the Court of Appeals in the State of New York who, as the hundredth year of the Society approached, conceived the project and appointed a committee to carry it out. In addition to recording the history of the Society, the aim was to remind members "of the meaning of our traditional customs and the significance of the Society's regalia".
