From The Indianapolis Star, Sunday, August 14, 1921: The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, a Georgia corporation, was admitted on Friday to transact business in Indiana having been granted a certificate by the secretary of state. Papers with the secretary of state attest the organization is “a patriotic fraternal order with no insurance or beneficiary features, designed to teach and inculcate among its membership greater respect for the Stars and Stripes and constitution and to strengthen the majesty and supremacy of regular organized forces in law and to increase patriotism of the purest kind among its members.” The papers mention no Indiana officers. Charles W. Love is its Indiana representative with Indianapolis headquarters at 447 Lemcke Annex, 115 N. Pennsylvania St. The colored Masons sent a protest to Governor McCray against admitting the Knights to do business in Indiana.
