in the outrage, and who were found guilty and sentenced to various terms of imprisonment.  The fate of Captain Morgan was never known, but it is supposed he was taken out into the lake, where his throat was cut, and his body sunken fifty fathoms in water.  About the same time, Col.  David C. Miller, the publisher of the book, was also seized, in Batavia, under the color of legal process, and taken to Le Roy.  The avowed intention of Col.  Miller’s seizure was to take him where Morgan was—­and where that was may be best gathered from the impious declaration of one of the conspirators, James Ganson, for several years a member of our Legislature—­that “he was put where he would stay put until God should call for him.”  Miller was, however, set at liberty, as the inhabitants of Le Roy interfered with the schemes of his kidnappers.  He soon after put to press the first part of the volume which is here presented to the public.  Additions have been made to Captain Morgan’s revelations, from time to time, until we are now able to make public all the Masonic degrees of any note or interest, entered into by modern Freemasons.
