Very very interesting. 

I wonder what made Gerda do what she did. 

At this time, the only lodge that I know of in Chicago area is the one
controlled by Frenchmen(with a sprinkling of Frenchwomen) and it is in Wheaton.

The Larkspur based American "Co" Masonry is the one which is composed of the
majority of the American Members of the formerly working with the French and
now is totally independent of any foreign control, in the fine American
tradition of self-rule and self-reliant. It is the French controlled group
which is the plaintiff in the Denver case against the American group.
Nothing should surprise anyone because there are people associated with
Wheaton with a lot of litigation experience.

Even in the masculine masonry, each state has its own setup which does not
take orders from anyone outside of it.

Thanks for the URL.

PS: May be when you visit Detroit or another location where there is a
lodge, you can arrange to get admitted if you are interested.
