His ripe scholarship, his profound knowledge of Masonic law and usage, his broad views of Masonic philosophy, his ceaseless and invaluable literary labors in the service of the Order, his noble ideal of its character and mission as well as his genial personal qualities and lofty character united to make him universally known and as widely respected and beloved by the Masonic world.


While a resident of Washington, Brother Mackey took an active in- terest in York Rite Masonry; was a member and regular attendant of the Grand Lodge and a frequent visitor to the subordinate lodges and chapters of this jurisdiction; served for some years as Chairman of the Committee on Jurisprudence of the Grand Lodge, and was always an adviser to assist the deliberation of that body with his knowledge and counsel.


Dr. Mackey died at Fortress Monroe June 20, 1881, and was interred June 26 in Glenwood Cemetery, this city, the Grand Lodge performing the solemn ceremonies of the Order, after religious and Scottish Rite services had been held at All Souls' Church. The Supreme Council in recognition of his great services to it and to Masonry erected a tablet to his memory in the Cemetery.
