Same here Joiner.

I took it for granted that because we, (Phi Theta), said the Creed at the opening of every Chapter Meeting, that every other chapter did the same. So I was a little surprised to read this. It was the first thing that I learned after I received my AM pin.
I never realized it carried such a mystery, as to its origins. I never learned the story behind, and for that matter never questioned it. I just assumed that Jack Mason wrote it. But, nowhere is it written where it came from, or who wrote it. Now I am curious.
