SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

This addition to the Ku Klux Klan in North Dakota Records consists of a photocopy application and charter for the Grand Forks Klan #1, for incorporation as a fraternal society. The charter was issued by The Imperial Wizard, Emperor of the Invisible Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan on June 4, 1922, which officially recognized the Grand Forks Klan and empowered them to perform all acts under Klan law. The charter was accepted by the Grand Forks Klan, also known as the Ansax Club, on September 21, 1923, but was never officially chartered due to insufficient funds.
