I.--Grand Lodge.

When a visit from the Grand Lodge is expected, the Master will see that
a convenient apartment is provided for the use of the Grand Lodge, where
the same can be opened in the proper form. On being notified that the
Grand Lodge is opened and prepared for the visitation, the Master, the
Lodge being opened on the third degree, will send a committee, headed,
if possible, by a Past Master, with the Masters of Ceremony with their
rods, the Deacons with their rods, and the Marshal, to escort the Grand
Lodge. A procession is formed in the following order:

Marshal.
Masters of Ceremony.
Committee.
Deacons.
The Grand Lodge.

On arriving at the door, the Grand Marshal will announce:

"The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of F. and A. M. of the State of
Arkansas."

the door and cross their rods, the committee proceed, followed by the
Grand Lodge in the inverse order of their rank. When the Grand Master
arrives in front of the altar, he halts, and the Grand Lodge filing to
the right and left form a line across the hall. The committee then
introduce The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of
Arkansas. The Grand Master then advances to the East, and the Master
receives him according to ancient usages, with the private Grand Honors
of Masonry, and resigns to him the chair and the gavel, each other Grand
Officer taking his station in place of the corresponding officer of the
Lodge, and the brethren are seated.

The Grand Master, at his pleasure, resigns the chair to the Master,
whereupon the other Grand Officers resign their respective stations to
the proper officers of the Lodge, and repair to the East, and take
seats on the right of the Grand Master.

The Grand Lodge should retire before the Lodge is closed. When the Grand
Master announces his intention to retire, the Lodge is called up, the
Grand Honors are given, and the Masters of Ceremony and Deacons repair
to the door and cross their rods, the Marshal conducts the procession of
the Grand Lodge to the door, and salutes as the procession passes him.
