Henry Tribute was a prominent figure in the world of Freemasonry. Born in 1855, he was initiated into the Masonic order at the age of 21 and quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a Master Mason in 1883.
Tribute spent much of his life promoting the principles and ideals of Freemasonry. He believed in the importance of brotherhood, charity, and the pursuit of knowledge. As a member of the Grand Lodge of England, he served as Master of several lodges and was appointed Provincial Grand Master in 1899.
One of Tribute's most significant contributions to Freemasonry was his work on the formation of the Masonic Peace Memorial in London. This impressive building, which is now known as Freemasons' Hall, was constructed as a tribute to the Freemasons who died during World War I.
Tribute was also a prolific writer and lecturer on the subject of Freemasonry. He wrote several books, including "The Principles of Masonic Law" and "Masonic Jurisprudence," which are still considered important works in the field today.
In addition to his contributions to Freemasonry, Tribute was also a successful businessman. He owned a printing company and was involved in the production of several periodicals, including The Freemason and The Masonic Record.
Tribute passed away in 1913 at the age of 58. However, his legacy lives on through his many contributions to the Freemason community.
