The Order of Malta was not conferred in the U.S. as part of the Templar rites until the mid-nineteenth century, and only then as an adjunct, didactic episode in the lectures appending the Order of the Temple. In this episode we explore the history of this rite, why it was omitted from Templary in the U.S., how it was standardized and adopted as the last rite in the Commandery, until it was moved subordinate to the Order of the Temple in 1917.
