Summary

The Grand Lodge Committee on Masonic Education is collecting presentations to disseminate to the Brethren of Virginia. The Regional Provost for Region 10 has started a Regional Provost Newsletter to be sent to each Lodge. This paper offers a biography of two well-known Masons from the Civil War, Brigadier General Lewis Armistead and Major General Winfield Scott Hancock, told from a first-person perspective of their lives. These two were memorialized in the famous sculpture at Gettysburg, "Friend to Friend".
