Jesse Montgomery GALUSHA

                   The Rhode Island Scottish Rite sent me via email a copy of Hugh David Galusha's membership card. It shows the dues, when paid and when he achieved each degree up to the 32 degree. I added his obituary to show the many organizations within the Scottish Rite that he was a member of. I did alter the original copy just at the top of the address that is crossed out because it shows his last known address, and due to privacy and the fact that Hugh's only surviving daughter is stillliving in the home, I wanted to make it private. Kelly (Grady) Hartmann Granddaughter of Hugh Galusha.

     What is a 32 Degree Freemason?  >added this on 10 Apr 2012  According to the information here http://riscottishrite.org/riconsistory.html the following describes the 32 Degree. "32° Knight Aspirant. This degree describes the victory of the spiritual over the human in man and the conquest of appetites and passions by moral sense and reason. The exemplar represents every Freemason eager to servehumanity but caught between self-interest and the call of duty. Duty often requires sacrifice, sometimes the supreme sacrifice.
