Hey Scipio, doesn't the timing of the civil war smell like it was used as punishment as well as an erasure of the anti Masonic movement and likely the teaching history of it, as well as other things of course.

Perhaps, there are a variety of factors at play I would rate as more significant than that, particularly the rejection of the National Bank in the 1830’s. Although to be fair, a great deal of the anti-masons were against that as well.

Yes I agree that's why I put, "as well as other things of course" in my comment. Thanks for your time in this interesting post.
