Junior Deacon

The office and duties of Junior Deacon are similar in many respects to that of Senior Deacon, to attend the Senior Warden, and carry messages to the Junior Warden. He is also responsible for guarding the inside of the main door of the lodge and ensuring that the lodge is "tyled".

Just as the Senior Deacon, the symbol of the Junior Deacon is a moon within the Square and Compass which is to represent his place in the lodge -- the West, near the Senior Warden.
