We believe that the essential elements of true brotherhood are love, charity and esteem; love, that binds our hearts with the sturdy chords of fraternal affection; charity; that is impulsive to see virtues in a brother and slow to reprove his faults; esteem, that is respectful to the honest convictions of others and that refrains from treading upon that which is sacred to spirit and conscience; these are the triple obligations of every brother in the bond
