“There is not a man living who wishes more sincerely than I do, to see a plan adopted for the abolition of [slavery].” —George Washington (1786)

While at the Seneca Waterways TOR in April, I picked up a patch issued by Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95) Home of the Ghost flap which will be designated the S33. Thanks to Bill Boyle for making it available to me from his collection since the lodge did not have a presence at the TOR.

The word Ghost and the Deer are stitched with a photochrome thread.

While at the Seneca Waterways TOR last weekend, I picked up a patch which Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95) Lighthouse Chapter issued a patch for their 2018 Fellowship. I believe this is currently the second chapter patch issued from any of the chapters in Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95). I’d previously written about the 2017 Camporee here.

Is anyone aware of any other chapter issues from Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95)?

“Let the American youth never forget, that they possess a noble inheritance, bought by the toils, and sufferings, and blood of their ancestors; and capacity, if wisely improved, and faithfully guarded, of transmitting to their latest posterity all the substantial blessings of life, the peaceful enjoyment of liberty, property, religion, and independence.” –Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution, 1833

Each NOAC going back a couple of decades, Section NE-3A and its predecessors have issued a set of flaps including one for each member lodge. Currently members of each lodge could order individual flaps from their home lodge and sets of the 5 lodges which make up the section. So their are different numbers made of each flap. For NOAC 2018, each flap shares a common design with the individual lodge name and a different border color for each flap.

Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95) has a light gray border.
