Re: Freemasonry in Nauvoo
I wrote this article a while back on the history of the Lodges in Nauvoo, their respective suspensions, and their later respective statuses as clandestine Lodges.
But I did not focus all that much on Bennett or on Joseph Smith.

Bennett was initially proposed as secretary of Nauvoo Lodge. After his ouster, he spilled the beans on some of the irregularities of Nauvoo Lodge. I initially was prejudiced against him, but after research, it turned out that he was giving accurate reports.

Re: Freemasonry in Nauvoo
Bennett was probably upset and jealous that he didn't come up with the idea first of what Joseph was doing.
