The highest honor within the gift of the Grand Council is that of Knight Grand Cross, with which every Sovereign Grand Master must be invested before he takes office. It was first conferred upon the twenty-one founders of Grand Council and afterwards on leading foreign brethren and our own outstanding members. The number of active Knights Grand Cross is limited to ninety and nine (99) members of Grand Council, and twenty and seven (27) honorary Knights Grand Cross (Honoris Causa) of other Jurisdictions.
