The office of Prior and of the other Officers of the Chapter

61. The office of Prior is carefully to see that the Rule is observed by all the members. He should also diligently note whether in the movements, comportment or dress of any member of his Commandery anything occurs which might be offensive to the eye. If he notice any of the members transgressing or even negligent, let him charitably admonish and correct them; or, should it seem to him more expedient, he may report the matter for correction to the Director of the Commandery.

62. In the absence of the Prior the Subprior takes his place.

63. The other Officials shall accomplish their respective duties according as particular customs and the needs of each Commandery may best determine.

64. The Council shall be summoned by the Prior, who presides at it, as often as the vote of the Council is required according to the Rule, or when any important matters according to its particular statutes have to be transacted

Deus Vult!
