Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Very Good. Dark green cloth boards with title and O.C.F. emblem in gilt on front cover. Boards slightly warped (book doesn't lay exactly flat). Light wear to covers. Interior is clean and unmarked. 48 + [3] pages. 9 x 6.25 inches. No copies located in WorldCat institutions. A very rare anthology of 58 tunes… for chapter use of the Order of Chosen Friends, a fraternal organization founded in May 1879. This is very similar to the previous volume of songs that Pitkin had compiled with Jennie E. Mathews, Gems of Song for Eastern Star Chapters (1882). The two volumes share in common 25 songs (one of which, ''Coronation,'' has different lyrics), but with Mystic Songs featuring 33 songs that do not appear in Gems of Song. The volume was dedicated by Pitkin in ''F.A.P.'' (Fraternity, Aid and Protection, the motto of the order) to the Members of the Order of Chosen Friends. Lorraine J. Pitkin (1845-1922) was a important figure in the Order of the Eastern Star (OEC), serving in leadership roles in both the Grand Chapter of Illinois and in the General Grand Chapter, where she served as Most Worthy Grand Matron, 1880-1883, and Right Worthy Grand Secretary, 1889-1919. The several Lorraine Chapters of the OEC are named for her.
