This quotation is from George Oliver's book, "Signs and Symbols", published during during the 1890's. The quotation from Oliver's book will provide an idea of what the Masonic perceptions were during the same general time period of the LDS temple ceremony development. Notice in this quotation the references to the Apron, Ephod, the White Stone, the Garment to be worn always, the Left-shouldered Sash, and the Garments of Adam and Eve. While reading this citation keep in mind that the author is talking about Masonry and not Mormonism. At that time period Masons were placing much more emphasis on religious ideas than they do now.
