Royal Arch Purple
The Royal Arch Purple, properly the Grand Royal Arch Purple Chapter of Ireland,〔"The Official website of the Grand Royal Arch Purple Chapter of Ireland." ()〕 is an organization related to the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland. It is a "higher degree" of initiation within the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland.
==History==
It was first used in 1795 shortly after the formation of the Orange Order and was the original system put together by the founding members of the Orange Order. The Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland disliked the ritualism and tried to suppress it as early as 1798 however, the main reason for the opposition to the Royal Arch Purple Degree was that many rural Lodges were practicing other degrees in addition to the Royal Arch Purple degree and the gentry deemed this as unacceptable and realised the need for a central system of degrees. The Royal Arch Purple degree was practised in secrecy for a period after the Grand Lodge (in Dublin) deemed the degree illegal, however it was kept alive by the Lodges around County Armagh as it was the system of 'travel' closest to the original ritual put together by the founding members of the Orange Order in 1795. The Grand Lodge maintained their position in not recognizing the degree throughout the nineteenth and into the early 20th century until 1911, but it now recognises the Royal Arch Purple as an official Order.〔(The Orange Order ) from the (Evangelical Truth ) website〕
It was re-constituted in 1911,〔See Title Page of the "The Report of the Annual Meeting of the Grand Royal Arch Purple Chapter of Ireland, Reconstituted 1911, held in Sandy Row Orange Hall Belfast in 1915〕 with the explicit intentions of promoting the Reformed Faith,〔See "Qualifications of a Royal Arch Purpleman" dated 1846, found in Schomberg House Archives.〕 Charity amongst all men〔See "Qualifications of a Royal Arch Purpleman" dated 1846, found in Schomberg House Archvies.〕 and maintaining historic Orangeism.〔 It was granted its Royal title by the Duke of Cumberland, King Ernest Augustus I of Hanover, who was the fifth son of King George III, and brother to King George IV and King William IV, whom he succeeded as King of Hanover. As Duke of Cumberland Ernest Augustus had been Grand Master of the Orange Order in England until it dissolved itself at the request of the King William IV following a government inquiry into public disorder in Ireland caused by Orange marches.〔Bird, Anthony (1966), The Damnable Duke of Cumberland, London: Barrie and Rockliff, OCLC (2188257 )〕
