Kintecoying Lodge #4 Revolutionary War Trail X10

For years Man-A-Hattin Lodge #82 sponsored two historic trails in Manhattan, one was “The Old New York Trail” the other was the “Revolutionary War Trail”. After the merger into Kintecoying Lodge #4 in 2013, the lodge continued to use the old patches until they ran out. After all, a Scout is Thrifty. But now the patches have run out, and they have been reissued with the Kintecoying Lodge name. This is the second of the two patches, this one for the Revolutionary War Trail.

“[Rights] are not annexed to us by parchments and seals. They are created in us by the decrees of Providence, which establish the laws of our nature. They are born with us; exist with us; and cannot be taken from us by any human power, without taking our lives. In short, they are founded on the immutable maxims of reason and justice.” –John Dickinson, A Warning to the Colonies (Of the Right to Freedom; and of Traitors), 1766

Ty-Ohni Lodge #95 1952 Youth NOAC Neckerchief?

Over the years, I’ve been told that several NOAC contingent neckerchief issues were made for Ty-Ohni Lodge. The neckerchiefs had no indication they were made for NOAC, but were either a single color cloth for adults or two colors for Youth. I’ve been told this was for the 1952 NOAC.

The scan has changed the colors, they are more a neon pink and electric blue and made of a silk or sateen like material. The badge is the Ty Ohni R1

“It is a duty certainly to give our sparings to those who want; but to see also that they are faithfully distributed, and duly apportioned to the respective wants of those receivers. And why give through agents whom we know not, to persons whom we know not, and in countries from which we get no account, where we can do it at short hand, to objects under our eye, through agents we know, and to supply wants we see?” –Thomas Jefferson, letter to Michael Megear, 1823

Kintecoying Lodge #4 Man-A-Hattin Chapter A1

Most of the predecessor lodges of Kintecoying Lodge #4 issued one or more Death Flaps or final Banquet patches. Man-A-Hattin Lodge #82 did the same, but it did not become available until there year-end chapter banquet over 6 months after the merger in April 2013. Therefore I’m calling this a chapter issue from Man-A-Hattin Chapter of Kintecoying Lodge #4, To date, this is the only chapter issued from any of the lodge’s six chapters.

It usses the same design as the original arrowhead from the lodge and adds the birth and death years.
