never made one but if the pattern were shown to her she had not doubt of her ability to
do it." The committee were shown into her back parlor, the room back of the shop, and
Col. Ross produced a drawing, roughly made, of the proposed flag. It was defective to the
clever eye of Mrs Ross and unsymmetrical, and she offered suggestions which Washington
and the committee readily approved.

What all these suggestions were we cannot definitely determine, but they were of
sufficient importance to involve an alteration and re-drawing of the design, which was
then and there done by General George Washington, in pencil, in her back parlor. One of
the alterations had reference to the shape of the stars. In the drawing they were made
with six points.

Mrs Ross at once said that this was wrong; the stars should be five pointed; they were
aware of that, but thought there would be some difficulty in making a five pointed star.
"Nothing easier" was her prompt reply and folding a piece of paper in the proper manner,
with one clip of her ready scissors she quickly displayed to their astonished vision the
five-pointed star; which accordingly took its place in the national standard. General
Washington was the active one in making the design, the others having little or nothing
to do with it. When it was completed, it was given to William Barrett, painter, to paint.

This version of events was popularized when it was published in Harper’s Monthly in July
of 1873. By the 1880s this account was showing up in school textbooks as historical fact.
What is omitted from this account is that all three of the men who are named as engaging
Betsy Ross in this work were Freemasons. Being aware of the critical role that symbols play
in Freemasonry, the fabled account of the design of such an important emblem as the
nation’s first flag strikes me as extremely implausible. Neither Satan, nor the initiates into
the mysteries of Freemasonry, would give so little thought to the arcane symbolism of one
of the premier symbols of America.

According to the traditional story, much of the design is off-the-cuff, almost whimsical, spur
of the moment type of decision making that belies any esoteric meaning behind the various
elements, especially that of the five pointed star. One might as well believe the Boston Tea
Party was a spontaneous uprising of American Colonialists, rather than a well planned act
of rebellion hatched in a Masonic lodge by Freemasons in Boston.

Why seek to obscure the fact that the five pointed star design was intentional? The truth is
that this symbol holds great meaning for Freemasons and Luciferians. Below is a floor
design of a Masonic Lodge.
