The first “third party” in the United States was the Anti-Masonic Party. It won the governorships of Pennsylvania and Vermont, and took Vermont in the 1832 presidential election. It fizzled four years later. Its leaders backed William Henry Harrison and he just wouldn’t deny being a Freemason.

One thought on “William Lawrence Sr Omnibit 3-3-17”

  1. I wonder what those fellas in the Anti-Masonic Party made of the fact that General Washington was a Freemason, as were other leading members of the Revolution. Or when challenged on it, did they just say, “Oh, he’s OK. But the rest of ’em can’t be trusted!”
