==== 75TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, JUNE 1934 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1934-52:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Edgar E. Bullard.''<br />
<br />
I consider it indeed an honor and a privilege to have a part in this important event in the life of Wilder Lodge, the 75th anniversary of its birth. I would, however, at this time extend to Worshipful Bros. Person and Rand my appreciation and hearty thanks for the hard work and assistance they rendered in procuring the data and facts from which my following remarks were dictated.<br />
<br />
While this evening we are particularly interested in the founding and history of Wilder Lodge, I think it also might be of interest to take just a moment and trace the origin and development of Masonry in Leominster. Contrary to the general belief, Masonry in Leominster was not born with the institution of Wilder Lodge. News items taken from the ''Political Focus'', a newspaper published in Leominster, show gatherings of Masons were held here during the years 1798 and 1799, but as no records are available showing any work done and as there is no record of a Dispensation being granted, it is assumed the Masonic gatherings in those years were purely of a social nature. In 1801, however, the records of the Grand Lodge show a Charter being granted to [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aurora Aurora] Lodge, of Leominster. At that time there were less than 50 Lodges in the State of Massachusetts and the total membership in the fraternity at that time was less than 2000. It might be of interest to note that at the time Aurora Lodge was started in Leominster the population here was 1495, that of Fitchburg 1390, while Lunenburg boasted of a population of 1243.<br />
<br />
As stated by Bro. Frederick Currier in his historical address covering Aurora Lodge, a better understanding of the difficulties under which Aurora Lodge was established and maintained here would be procured, if we stop and consider the changes which have taken place since that time. At that time not a cooking stove nor even a wagon with springs was in use. Every gentleman wore a queue and powdered his hair. Knee breeches and cocked hats were the attire of the day and railroad, telegraph, gas, electric light, sewing machines, and even the common match were not dreamed of.<br />
<br />
The original Charter was delivered to Aurora Lodge on June 8, 1801, and Captain Mitchell Newhall became the first Master. Therefore, Captain Newhall can rightfully be called the father of Masonry in Leominster. He settled in Leominster in 1792, living the remainder of his life here as a gentleman farmer. He was a man of means and the records show that he advanced the $20.00 necessary to cover the expenses incidental to procuring the Charter of Aurora Lodge. Records of the Lodge state that to his executive ability, energy, and clear judgment was due the successful establishing of Aurora Lodge and Masonry in Leominster.<br />
<br />
The first meeting place was in Kendall's Tavern, located on West Street, near the junction of Lindell Avenue. This tavern was a terminus of the Fifth Massachusetts Turnpike, which was a stage coach line operating between Boston and Greenfield. This tavern was erected in 1785 and for over 50 years its sign announced that refreshments for man and beast could be found within. As one of the regular stations for changing stage horses the old tavern was a scene of great activity. The house is still in a state of good preservation, but the extensive barns have long since disappeared.<br />
<br />
The Lodge started off auspiciously with prospects of a bright future, and on September 17 of the same year, 1801, a committee was appointed to locate new quarters and they moved one week later to Brother Leland's tavern located on the spot where the Unitarian Church now stands. The third move was made in November of the same year when quarters were occupied at the corner of Monument Square and Pleasant Street. They held regular meetings in this location for over 40 years, or until the move was made to Fitchburg in 1844. It is interesting to note that the lease for their new quarters called for the payment of $18.00 per year with the specific clause that the landlord would provide wood and candles for their use and that the fires should be started one hour before the scheduled meeting of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
On February 26, 1844, the subject of the removal of the Lodge to Fitchburg was discussed and on May 24, 1844, a vote was taken on that important subject. The membership at that time was 31 and prior to the meeting a notice was sent to every member with information pertaining to the important matter that was to be acted upon. All present, with the exception of one member, voted for the move to Fitchburg. The last meeting of Aurora Lodge was held in Leominster on December 23, 1844. For 14 years, or from 1844 until the birth of Wilder Lodge in 1859, Leominster was without a Masonic organization.<br />
<br />
In the year 1859 we find in the records thought of establishing another Lodge in Leominster. On May 4, 1859, preliminary steps were taken at which time Bro.Sewell Richardson called the resident Master Masons of Leominster to his home for the purpose of considering the advisability of taking steps to establish a Lodge in this town. At that meeting it was voted to take steps to establish such a Lodge and Bro. Sewell Richardson was chosen President and Bro. C. B. Cook, Secretary. They also chose at that meeting William Durant, W. M., C. B. Cook, S. W., and Benjamin Higbee, J. W. It was the duty of these three officers to petition the Grand Lodge for permission to form and open a Lodge of Master Masons in Leominster. On May 21, 1859, the committee reported that a Dispensation had been granted. They suggested that the new Lodge be called "Hermon Lodge" but on recommendation of the Most Worshipful Grand Master of that time, John T. Heard, the name Wilder was adopted.<br />
<br />
I quote herewith a letter received from the Grand Master under date of May 19, 1859, pertaining to that subject: <br />
<blockquote><br />
"Dear Sir and Brother:<br />
"Permit me to suggest the name of Wilder for that of the Lodge for the Brethren of Leominster in honor of that true Mason, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLDWilder David Wilder], of that town, whom we all respect. He was D. D. G. M. of what was then the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAFramingham5_1821-34 5th district] in 1818, 1819 and 1820 and if I remember rightly, was at one time Master of Aurora Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
"The name Wilder would sound well."<br><br />
<br><br />
Fraternally yours<br><br />
[http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHeard John T. Heard]"<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Records of Aurora Lodge show David Wilder to have been raised on October 27, 1803, was Master from 1812 to 1816; D.D.G.M. in 1818, 1819, and 1820 and D.G.M. in 1832. He was a Mason for more than 60 years and never faltered in his support of Aurora Lodge or of Masonry. He died at his residence in North Leominster September 21, 1866, at the age of 88 years. No citizen of Leominster probably has ever held more positions of trust, given by the people, than did our late Brother under whose name we still carry on. He represented the town for 11 years in the Legislature, was a Justice of the Quorum throughout the Commonwealth, a State Senator, Commissioner of the Highway, member of the Governor's Council, and was for five years Treasurer of the Commonwealth. On December 3, 1853, he finished writing the History of Leominster which was his last work.<br />
<br />
We find the Dispensation which had been granted by the Grand Lodge presented to Wilder Lodge by W. M. Charles Fessenden, of Aurora Lodge, July 2, 1859. The Dispensation was signed by M. W. G. M. John T. Heard. Apparently the very friendly relations that have always existed between Aurora and Wilder Lodges started back in those early days, for our records in several instances mention the valuable assistance rendered to Wilder Lodge by the Brethren of Aurora Lodge, particularly W. M. Charles Fessenden.<br />
<br />
The first regular communication of Wilder Lodge was held under date of July 14, 1859, in what was then called Harmony Hall, located on the south side of the square between Pleasant Street and what is now the Sawtelle block. Later in this same year the name of the hall by vote of the Lodge was changed from that of Harmony Hall to Masonic Hall. The officers who filled the stations at the first meeting of Wilder Lodge were:<br />
* W.M. — William Durant <br />
* S.W. — Calvin B. Cook <br />
* J.W. — Benjamin Higbee <br />
* S. — Jonas Calburn <br />
* J.D. — Ephraim Buss <br />
* T. — Sewell Richardson<br />
At this first meeting Bros. Durant and Cook presented the first code of By-laws. Many of them stand today as first originated. Their dues were designated as "quarterages" and called for the payment of 25¢ per quarter. The meetings were called to be held on Thursday evening on or next preceding the full of the moon. The time was stated as 7 1/2 or 7 1/4 o'clock. The use of the moon as designating our time of meetings remained in the By-laws until November 16, 1915, at which time they were changed to read the first Tuesday of each month.<br />
<br />
On December 13, 1859, is reported the first death in Wilder Lodge, being that of Thomas Robbins who was buried with full Masonic rites on December 15, 1859.<br />
<br />
The Charter was delivered to Wilder Lodge on July 10, I860, and from all indications, was a gala event in the history of our Fraternity. The M. W. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Winslow Lewis] and suite attended this meeting and after the usual dedicatory ceremonies the Grand Officers, Officers, members, and visitors, escorted by the Leominster Cornet Band, marched to the Leominster House where a bountiful supper was in waiting. The records show a feature of the evening to have been a surprise tendered the Brethren by their wives and sweethearts who joined them at the festive board. After the banquet a march was made back to the quarters where the Officers were duly installed by J. G. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge W. D. Coolidge]. Thus it was under these pleasant circumstances that the Lodge, whose 75th birthday we are tonight commemorating, was formally dedicated. It appears to me that either an error must have been made in recording this event or else there has been a radical change in the characteristics of the fair sex since that time. It is hard to imagine, in this present day and age, a group of women knowing they were to attend an important banquet with their husbands and yet keeping it a secret from them.<br />
<br />
The first year of the existence of Wilder Lodge was apparently a very successful one as the records show 58 persons being raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason. The first visitation was made to Wilder Lodge by D .D. G. M. G. J. Wilder under date of December 5, 1860.<br />
<br />
On September 5, 1865, a committee was appointed to renew the lease on their quarters which was negotiated for the sum of $80.00 per year, somewhat different from the $1500 per annum rent we pay at the present time. However, apparently everything was not proportionately cheaper in those days because under a little later date we find the Lodge authorizing the payment of a bill for $1.00 which covered the purchase of five baskets of kindling wood.<br />
In the early days of Wilder Lodge apparently the social side of the Order was a very important feature of their activities. Apart from church and political gatherings it was about the only organization that drew men together for social intercourse. On July 28, 1868, we note that the Lodge voted to buy and send out 500 circulars regarding a picnic they were contemplating holding. On September 1, 1868, a bill for $80.00 was presented to the Lodge from the Leominster Brass Band for their services. No record appears as to what the band was engaged for or where and when the picnic previously referred to was held. It is also of interest to note that under date of November 16, 1869, a New Year's Party was held at which time the ladies were invited and a good time was had by all.<br />
<br />
Apparently our forebears were imbued with the same Yankee spirit that is characteristic of New Englanders regarding finances, for we find under date of December 24, 1868, the following notation in the records of their meeting:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Voted to purchase of Mrs. C. M. Pierce a photograph of our deceased Brother, Sewell Richardson, for the sum of 15¢."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
An unfortunate fire occurred in the building which housed Masonic Hall on October 7, 1873, and dealt the Fraternity at that time a severe blow. A special meeting was called the next evening in Monoosnock Hall at which time the Master and Wardens were authorized to make purchases to replace the jewels and paraphernalia that were destroyed by the fire. A committee was also appointed at the same time to secure and set up temporary quarters which was done in a building owned by the Lockey Bros, on Mechanic Street.<br />
<br />
On September 22, 1874, a committee was appointed to look into the advisability of securing new permanent quarters in a block which was then being erected by J. C. Allen on the corner of Pleasant and Park Streets. The committee reported that favorable terms could be procured and a five-year lease was taken on these quarters, the terms being $200. per year. These new quarters were formally dedicated at a special communication held under date of April 15, 1875. The meeting was called to order at 1:30 P.M. and the dedication ceremony was performed by R. W. D. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWelch C. A. Welch], assisted by other Grand Officers. That occasion will go down as one of the most notable in the history of Wilder Lodge. After the ceremony 200 members and guests proceeded to the banquet hall where a bountiful dinner was served followed by speeches by the Grand Officers. In the evening a reception was given to the friends of the members and the records show over 500 in attendance. Music was furnished by the Leominster Brass Band and dancing was in order in the banquet hall. The cost of furnishing the new apartments totaled $2,252.88 and, through popular subscription of the members, there was collected to defray this expense $2,279.47.<br />
<br />
Apparently the added expense of the new quarters, together with the loss sustained by the disastrous fire, placed the Lodge in a somewhat unsound financial condition, for under date of May 22, 1877, we find a committee being appointed to devise means of wiping out a deficit of $250. which apparently existed. Again under date of January 7, 1879, a committee was appointed to circulate a paper for subscriptions in order that a Lodge debt of $750. might be liquidated. True characteristic Masonic charity again came to the rescue of the Lodge, the committee reporting on August 17, 1880, that the debt of $750. had been wiped out by the donations of 71 Brethren.<br />
<br />
The first Past Master's jewel to be presented in Wilder Lodge was presented to Past Master Durant, our first Master, on January 8, 1878, with an appropriate ceremony. Unfortunately our distinguished first Master of Wilder Lodge was not privileged long to enjoy this jewel for the next year on July 13, 1879, he was buried with full Masonic honors at a communication held at high twelve which was attended by Aurora and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=CharlesWMoore C. W. Moore] Lodges of Fitchburg, together with many high Masonic dignitaries in this district.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge was again graced by a visit from officers of the Grand Lodge, the records showing that on October 17, 1882, M. W. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Samuel C. Lawrence] paid the Lodge an official visit. Apparently his visit was for the purpose of explaining a per capita Grand Lodge tax which was voted by Wilder Lodge immediately following this official visit. Apparently this per capita tax was not looked upon with favor by many members of the Fraternity for under date of October 24, 1882, the Secretary of the Lodge received $126. from an anonymous giver, said money to be used for paying the per capita tax of 14 Brothers who had dimitted. Although the Lodge never knew the name of the generous giver, it extended to the unknown a unanimous vote of thanks for the charitable act.<br />
<br />
Again the question of quarters came up in 1888 and a committee was authorized to renew a short term lease from the Allen estate at a cost of $250. per year, it being distinctly understood in the contract that the owners would not be responsible for any damages which might be caused by a leaking roof. After six more years of occupancy of quarters in the Allen Block the Lodge voted in 1894 to lease new quarters in the Columbia Block, what is now the Columbia Hotel, for a term of 15 years. This lease was negotiated for a sum of $700 per year and the quarters were dedicated with appropriate ceremonies under date of March 19, 1895. After the dedication ceremonies a banquet was served which was followed by a social and entertainment in the evening to which the ladies were invited. These new quarters were shared with Temple Chapter No. 45, Order of the Eastern Star, which was instituted March 19, 1894. Temple Chapter has been a very prosperous and successful organization and has assisted materially in perpetuating the principles and precepts of the Masonic Institution.<br />
<br />
The fiftieth anniversary of Wilder Lodge was a very pleasing event and was held on June 14, 1910. The organization was graced by the presence of many Grand Officers and a splendid paper was prepared and read on the history of Wilder Lodge by W. B. James C. Smith. Unfortunately for the Lodge and unfortunately for this committee, that paper could not be located for use on this occasion.<br />
<br />
The first Henry Price service medals were presented in Wilder Lodge by M.W.G.M. Melvin M. Johnson. The happy recipients of the medals were Worshipful Bro. T. G. Ames and Bro. E. F. Pierce who at that time had completed more than 50 years of active service in Masonry.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge is handing down to posterity records which show its patriotism during the trying days of the World War. Liberty Bonds were freely purchased, members who were in the service were exempted from dues, money was placed in the hands of the Red Cross to be used for furnishing tobacco to the boys who were across doing their bit, cigars were generously purchased by the Master and sent to the members who were overseas, and under date of May 17, 1918, the Lodge voted to purchase a service flag in honor of the boys who enlisted to uphold the integrity of our country. This service flag was dedicated on August 3, 1918, at which time Col. Alfred Alloe, who was then stationed at Fort Devens and a member of Tyrian Lodge No. 370, of Cleveland, Ohio, gave a stirring address. Music was furnished by an orchestra from Camp Devens. The names on the honor roll of Wilder Lodge denoting service in the World War at that time were as follows:<br />
* Bro. C. E. Akeley <br />
* Bro. H. G. Barrett <br />
* Bro. Leroy Barrett<br />
* Bro. J. E. Cheney <br />
* Bro. W. W. Connor<br />
* Bro. C. W. DeWolf <br />
* Bro. C. E. Green<br />
* Bro. R. R. Harris<br />
* Bro. S. J. Haskell<br />
* Bro. C. W. Hill<br />
* Bro. H. W. Kittredge<br />
* Bro. H. E. Lancey<br />
* Bro. E. H. Leet<br />
* Bro. C. W. Lombard<br />
* Bro. W. K. Morse <br />
* Bro. E. J. Nettle <br />
* Bro. C. Nicholson<br />
* Bro. C. E. Phelps <br />
* Bro. E. F. Potter<br />
* Bro. A. N. Raymond<br />
* Bro. H. G. Sanford <br />
* Bro. G. A. Stancomb <br />
* Bro. W. H. Tenney <br />
* Bro. C. Trembly<br />
* Bro. G. H. Woodbury<br />
<br />
A very pleasing occasion occurred on the evening of April 8, 1919. It was designated as Past Masters' night and during the course of the evening Worshipful Bro. G. G. Lawrence was presented with a gold watch in recognition of his 21 years of service as Secretary of Wilder Lodge. There were 150 present, including Masons from five different states as well as from Nova Scotia.<br />
<br />
Again under date of December 10, 1919, consideration was given by the Lodge to new quarters. A committee was appointed which negotiated a lease for the delightful quarters which we now occupy for a sum of $1500. per annum. The dedication of these quarters was held in April, 1920, at which time M. W. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Arthur D. Prince] and his suite honored us by their presence. Prior to the installation ceremonies a banquet was held in the Municipal Building where 543 Masons enjoyed a banquet, the piece de resistance of which was turkey.<br />
<br />
Future generations when scanning the records of Wilder Lodge will undoubtedly ponder over the fact that while the dedication ceremonies of these quarters occurred on April 5, on April 6 a meeting was called and a committee was appointed by the Worshipful Master to devise means for defraying the expenses incidental to moving and equipping these quarters. Our only explanation is that those in charge must have had explicit confidence in the generosity of the Brethren of Wilder Lodge, a confidence which was later substantiated by the activities of a committee headed by Bro. W. H. Cropper, Chairman and Bro. Ralph W. Robbins as Secretary who raised by popular subscription the sum of $7,826.45 for this purpose. The beautiful lighting effects which we enjoy were made possible by the generosity of Bro. Horace F. Cook.<br />
<br />
The high water mark for activities in Wilder Lodge occurred in 1919, when 88 persons were admitted, the work being performed during the course of 78 special and 12 regular communications. It was often necessary to hold four special communications a week for degree purposes and the work incidental to the lecturing and raising of 88 persons to the degree of Master Mason in one year kept the officers extremely busy, for which fact I can personally vouch. Figuratively speaking, during that period many fair Leominster maidens joined the ranks of the so-called "Masonic Widows."<br />
<br />
At the time these quarters were leased the social activities of the Lodge were taken over by the Masonic Club and the present recreational rooms established. This was a radical departure from the previous customs of Wilder Lodge as the old quarters in the Columbia contained only two card tables and a few packs of cards which were procured only after considerable debate on the part of the members. The Masonic Club flourished for several years, sponsoring many activities which proved to be delightful Masonic social affairs. Recently, because of lack of interest, the club was disbanded and the assets taken over by the Lodge. Since the occupancy of these quarters many delightful occasions and many important events have taken place. All of these, however, are easily within the recollection of those present and time prohibits me from mentioning them in detail.<br />
<br />
The lodge was saddened in 1922 by the untimely death of Bro. D'Onfro who was killed a few days prior to the date set for him to become a Master Mason. Realizing the favorable impression that Masonry had made on the young man, the family of our deceased Brother was anxious that some Masonic emblem be placed on his tombstone. Therefore, in Evergreen Cemetery on a tombstone may be found the square and compasses with one point of the compass elevated above the square, the other being hidden, standing as a perpetual record to the Craft that Bro. D'Onfro had received light as yet but partially.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was again saddened on February 12, 1931, when R. W. Bro. Ralph W. Smith was laid to rest with full Masonic rites. Again on August 26, 1933, death removed from our midst R. W. Bro. Everett B. Richardson, one of the oldest members of Wilder Lodge in point of service and the only living Past District Deputy appointed from Wilder Lodge.<br />
<br />
The writing into the records by the Secretary of this present delightful occasion, graced by the presence of the M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMChipman G. M.] and his suite, will complete the chronology of leading events in the history of Leominster Masonry and of Wilder Lodge.<br />
<br />
This has been one of the most interesting and pleasant tasks that I have ever undertaken. It was difficult, however, when arriving at the stage in the life of Wilder Lodge when I personally could recall many of the characters who have been an inspiration to me, to refrain from paying tribute to them during this occasion. I realized, however, that that would be unfair as undoubtedly there had been in the life of the Lodge many more like them prior to the time that I became affiliated with this institution. Now that I have completed the history of Wilder Lodge, it might not be out of place for me to pay my personal tribute to these men who have been an inspiration to me and, I feel, have been an inspiration to you also.<br />
<br />
Bro. Clesson Merriam for 65 years a Mason, 31 years a member of Wilder Lodge, stands out in my mind as a faithful, loyal Mason, exemplifying to the nth degree the tenets of our institution. He was presented the Henry Price medal during my term as Master of this Lodge and the thrill the old gentleman got out of that evening stands out in my mind as one of the high lights during my administration.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Bro. Thomas J. Ames, another veteran of 60 odd years, whose name is conspicuous all through our records showing the service that he rendered to Wilder Lodge, is another Mason whom I have admired and respected. He died on February 27, 1927, and next to his flag, I believe "Tommy," as he was called by his old associates, loved Wilder Lodge.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Bro. J. C. Smith, the oldest living Past Master in point of continuous service, a member who has held many offices of trust within the Lodge and through whose efforts the Leominster Royal Arch Chapter was instituted on December 8, 1923. For many years his delightful delivery of the charge deeply impressed all who were privileged to hear it and to me he stands as the personification of a real Mason.<br />
<br />
There is my good friend, Worshipful Bro. H. E. Rand, who since the time he was raised in 1916 has been continuously serving Wilder Lodge and its members. Surely when writing up the complete history of Wilder Lodge the memory of this faithful and loyal servant cannot be omitted from the records.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Bro. John Gay, quiet, unassuming, yet loyal, faithful, and dependable. For 23 consecutive years he held an office in Wilder Lodge, this service being appropriately recognized by the members of the Lodge, when on October 24, 1933, he was presented with a beautiful Past Master's apron.<br />
<br />
I was out of the city all day yesterday so up until last night I thought it was going to be my pleasure and privilege to mention the name of our late Brother among those living Past Masters whom I have always greatly respected and admired. Fate decreed otherwise, however, and so tonight instead we are all shocked and we all mourn because of his sudden death and our sudden loss.<br />
<br />
During the dictation of this chronology of Wilder Lodge, many times this part of the third degree lecture flashed through my mind: <br />
<blockquote><br />
"The hour glass is an emblem of human life. <br><br />
Behold how swiftly the sands run <br><br />
and how rapidly our lives are drawing to a close."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Twenty-five years hence, undoubtedly, Wilder Lodge will celebrate its one hundredth anniversary. On that occasion many who are present this evening will not be present to answer "here" when the roll of the workmen is called.<br />
<br />
Seventy-five years hence the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary will, undoubtedly, be celebrated. On that occasion probably no one present here this evening will be privileged to attend. This should bring back to us in a most vivid manner the fleetness of time and the certainty of death. Therefore, it seems to me that we would do well on this occasion to rededicate the remainder ot our lives to upholding the splendid traditions of Wilder Lodge which was named in honor of that sterling and sturdy gentleman, David Wilder, whose service to his fellow men might well become an inspiration to us all; it seems to me that we might well rededicate the remainder of our lives to promoting and perpetuating the tenets, principles, and precepts of our time honored Institution, which after all, simply means the rededication of the remainder of our lives to the ideals of the home, the church, community, state, and our flag.<br />
<br />
==== CENTENARY HISTORY, JUNE 1959 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1959-145:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Andrew E. Harper.''<br />
<br />
Once upon a time a group of laborers were engaged in the construction of a magnificent edifice. These workmen organized into groups according to their abilities, from the youngest apprentice to the master craftsman. After completing this beautiful Temple for King Solomon, these groups of men, with their various trade secrets, continued to work together in other parts of their country. As time went on, similar groups were formed, and they spread throughout the world, eventually coming to North America and Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
In 1798 and 1799, we find according to the Political Focus, Leominster's newspaper of that day, mention of social gatherings of Freemasons, as these groups now called themselves. And in 1801, the records of the Grand Lodge show a charter granted to [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aurora Aurora] Lodge of Leominster. Captain Mitchell Newhall was its first Master. Therefore, Captain Newhall can rightfully be called the father of Masonry in Leominster. He was a man of means, and the records show that he advanced the $20.00 necessary to cover the expenses incidental to procuring the charter. Their first meeting-place was in Kendall's Tavern, located on the Fifth Massachusetts Turnpike, which ran through Leominster. This Tavern is near the junction of West Street and Lindell Avenue, just off the present Route 2, and is now used as a residence.<br />
<br />
To get a picture of the times, let us consider that the population of Leominster at that time was 1495, while Fitchburg trailed us with 1390; there were less than fifty Lodges in the State of Massachusetts, and the total membership of the Fraternity in this State was less than 2000 compared with nearly 135,000 today. There were no cook stoves, nor even a wagon with springs then; every gentleman wore a queue and powdered his hair; knee breeches and cocked hats were the attire of the day; railroads, telegraph, telephones, gas, electric lights, sewing machines and even the common match were not dreamed of, let alone radio and television, the auto and the airplane.<br />
<br />
This Masonic Lodge soon moved to another location at the corner of what is now Monument Square and Pleasant Street, where they leased quarters for the sum of $18.00 per year, with the specific clause that the landlord would provide wood and candles for their use, and that the fires should be started one hour before the scheduled meeting of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
In the early 1840's, a railroad was built through this section of the country. Original plans to come through Leominster were changed, and the tracks went to Fitchburg. This resulted in Fitchburg's becoming a much larger center of population. And, in 1844, the members of Aurora Lodge voted to move the Lodge to that City.<br />
<br />
On May 4, 1859, Brother Sewell Richardson called the resident Master Masons of Leominster to his home to consider the advisability of establishing a Lodge in this Town. At that meeting, Brother Richardson was chosen President, and Brother Calvin B. Cook Secretary; and it was voted to take steps to establish such a Lodge. They also chose William Durant to be Worshipful Master, Calvin Cook, Senior Warden, and Benjamin Higbee, Junior Warden. Brother Luther Longley was also present. It was the duty of the three officers to petition the Grand Lodge for permission to form and open a Lodge of Master Masons in Leominster. On May 21, 1859, the committee reported that a dispensation had been granted. They had suggested that the new Lodge be called "Herman Lodge" but on recommendation of the Most Worshipful Grand Master of that time, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHeard John T. Heard], the name Wilder was adopted.<br />
<br />
A letter received from the Grand Master under date of May 9, 1859, pertaining to that subject reads as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
Dear Sir and Brother:<br><br />
<br><br />
Permit me to suggest the name of Wilder for that of the Lodge for the Brethren of Leominster in honor of that true Mason, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLDWilder David Wilder], of that town, whom we all respect. He was District Deputy Grand Master of what was then the 5th district in 1818, 1819 and 1820 and if I remember rightly was at one time Master of Aurora Lodge. The name Wilder would sound well.<br><br />
<br><br />
Fraternally yours,<br><br />
John T. Heard<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Records of Aurora Lodge show David Wilder to have been initiated on October 27, 1803; was Master from 1812 to 1816; District Deputy Grand Master in 1818, 1819 and 1820; and Deputy Grand Master in 1832. He was a Mason for more than sixty years and never faltered in his support of Masonry. He died at his residence in North Leominster, September 21, 1866, at the age of eighty-eight years and was buried in Pine Grove Cemetery, Leominster. No citizen of Leominster probably has ever held more positions of trust given by the people than did our late Brother, under whose name we still carry on. He represented the town for eleven years in the Legislature, was a Justice of the Quorum throughout the Commonwealth, a State Senator, Commissioner of the Highway, Member of the Governor's Council and was for five years Treasurer of the Commonwealth. He was also a member of the Unitarian Church for 57 years, 34 of which he served as Deacon. On December 3, 1853, he finished writing the "History of Leominster," which was his last work.<br />
<br />
We find the dispensation which had been granted by the Grand Lodge presented to Wilder Lodge by Worshipful Master Charles Fessenden of Aurora Lodge on July 2, 1859. This dispensation was signed by Most Worshipful Grand Master John T. Heard.<br />
<br />
The first regular communication of Wilder Lodge was held under date of July 14, 1859, in what was then called Harmony Hall, located on the South Side of the square between Pleasant Street and what is now the Lubin Block. Later in this same year, the name of the hall, by vote of the Lodge, was changed from that of Harmony Hall to Masonic Hall. The officers who filled the stations at the first meeting of Wilder Lodge were:<br />
* William Durant, Worshipful Master<br />
* Calvin B. Cook, Senior Warden<br />
* Benjamin Higbee, Junior Warden<br />
* Jonas Colburn, Secretary<br />
* Ephraim Buss, Junior Deacon<br />
* Sewell Richardson, Tyler<br />
<br />
At this first meeting Brothers Durant and Cook presented the first code of by-laws. Many of them stand today as originated. Their dues were designated as quarterages and called for the payment of 25¢ per quarter. The meetings were called to be held on Thursday evening of or next preceding the full of the moon. On July 18, 1861, this was changed to Tuesday evening. The time was stated as seven and one-half or seven and one-quarter o'clock. The use of the moon as designating our time of meetings remained in the by-laws until November 16, 1915, at which time they were changed to read the first Tuesday of each month.<br />
<br />
The Charter was delivered to Wilder Lodge on July 10, 1860, and from all indications, it was a gala event in the history of our Fraternity. The Most Worshipful Grand Master, Winslow Lewis, and suite attended this meeting, and, after the usual dedicatory ceremonies, the Grand Officers, Officers, members and visitors, escorted by the Leominster Corner Band, inarched to the Leominster House, where a bountiful supper was in waiting. The records show a feature of the evening to have been a surprise tendered the Brethren by their wives and sweethearts, who joined them at the festive board. After the banquet, a march was made back to the quarters, where the officers were duly installed by the Junior Grand Warden, W. D. Coolidge. Thus it was under these pleasant circumstances that the Lodge, whose 100th birthday we are tonight commemorating, was formally dedicated. It appears to me that either an error must have been made in recording this event or else there has been a radical change in the characteristics of the fair sex since that time. It is hard to imagine, in this present day and age, a group of women knowing they were to attend an important banquet with their husbands and yet keeping it a secret from them.<br />
<br />
The first year of the existence of Wilder Lodge was apparently a very successful one, as the records show fifty-eight persons being raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason. The first visitation was made to Wilder Lodge by District Deputy Grand Master, C. J. Wilder, under date of December 5, 1860.<br />
<br />
On September 5, 1865, a committee was appointed to renew the lease on their quarters, which was negotiated for the sum of $80.00 per year, somewhat different from what we pay at the present time. However, apparently everything was not proportionately cheaper in those days because under a little later date we find the Lodge authorizing the payment of a bill for $1.00 which covered the purchase of five baskets of kindling wood.<br />
In the early days of Wilder Lodge apparently the social side of the Order was a very important feature of their activities. Apart from church and political gatherings, it was about the only organization that drew men together for social intercourse. On July 28, 1868, we note that the Lodge voted to buy and send out 500 circulars regarding a picnic they were contemplating holding. On September 1st a bill for $80.00 was presented to the Lodge from the Leominster Brass Band for their services. No record appears as to what the band was engaged for, or where and when the picnic previously referred to was held. It is also of interest to note that under date of November 16, 1869, a New Year's party was held, at which time the ladies were invited and a good time was had by all.<br />
<br />
Apparently our forebears were imbued with the same Yankee spirit that is characteristic of New Englanders regarding finances, for we find, under date of December 24, 1868, the following notation in the records of their meeting: "Voted to purchase of Mrs. C. M. Pierce a photograph of our deceased Brother, Sewell Richardson, for the sum of 15¢."<br />
<br />
An unfortunate fire occurred in the building which housed Masonic Hal! on October 7, 1873, and dealt the Fraternity a severe blow. A special meeting was called the next evening in Monoosnock Hall, at which time the Master and Wardens were authorized to make purchases to replace the jewels and paraphernalia that were destroyed by the fire. A committee was also appointed at the same time to secure and set up temporary quarters, which was done in a building owned by the Lockey Bros., on Mechanic Street.<br />
<br />
On September 22, 1874, a committee was appointed to look into the advisability of securing new permanent quarters in a block which was then being erected by J. C. Allen on the corner of Pleasant and Park Streets. The committee reported that favorable terms could be procured, and a five-year lease was taken on these quarters, the terms being $200.00 per year. These new quarters were formally dedicated at a special communication held on April 15, 1875. The meeting was called to order at 1130 P.M. and the dedication ceremony was performed by Right Worshipful District Deputy Grand Master, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWelch C. A. Welch], assisted by other Grand Officers. After the ceremony, 200 members and guests proceeded to the banquet-hall, where a bountiful dinner was served, followed by speeches by the Grand Officers. In the evening a reception was given to the friends of the members, and the records show over 500 in attendance. Music was furnished by the Leominster Brass iiand, and dancing was in order in the banquet-hall.<br />
<br />
The first Past Master's jewel to be presented by Wilder Lodge was presented to Worshipful William Durant, our first Master, on January 8, 1878, with an appropriate ceremony. Unfortunately, our distinguished first Master of Wilder Lodge was not privileged to long enjoy this jewel for the next year, on July 13, 1879, he was buried with full Masonic honors at a communication held at high twelve, which was attended by many high Masonic dignitaries in this District.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge was again graced by a visit from officers of the Grand Lodge, the records showing that on October 17, 1882. Most Worshipful Grand Master [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Samuel Lawrenc]e paid the Lodge an official visit. Apparently his visit was for the purpose of explaining a per capita Grand Lodge tax, which was voted by Wilder Lodge immediately following this official visit. Apparently this per capita tax was not looked upon with favor by many members of the Fraternity, for under date of October 24th, the secretary of the Lodge received $126.00 from an anonymous giver, said money to be used for paying the per capita tax of fourteen brothers who had demitted. Although the Lodge never knew the name of the generous giver, it extended to the person a unanimous vote of thanks for the charitable act.<br />
<br />
Again the question of quarters came up in 1888, and a committee was authorized to renew a short-term lease from the Allen estate at a cost of $250.00 per year, it being distinctly understood in the contract that the owners would not be responsible for any damages which might be caused by a leaking roof. After six more years of occupancy of quarters in the Allen block, the Lodge voted, in 1894, to lease new quarters in the Columbia block, later the Columbia Hotel, for a term of fifteen years. This lease was negotiated for a sum of $700.00 per year, and the quarters were dedicated with appropriate ceremonies under date of March 19, 1895. After the dedication ceremonies, a banquet was served, . which was followed by a social and entertainment in the evening, to which the ladies were invited. These new quarters were shared with Temple Chapter, No. 45, Order of the Eastern Star, which was instituted March 19, 1894. Temple Chapter has been a very prosperous and successful organization and has assisted materially in perpetuating the principles and precepts of the Masonic institution.<br />
<br />
The fiftieth anniversary of Wilder Lodge was a very pleasing event and was held on June 14, 1910. The organization was graced by the presence of many Grand Officers, and a splendid paper was prepared and read on the history of Wilder Lodge by Wor. James C. Smith. Unfortunately, for the Lodge and for the committee, that paper could not be located for use on this occasion.<br />
<br />
The first Henry Price Medals were presented in Wilder Lodge by Most Worshipful Grand Master [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Melvin Johnson]. The happy recipients of these medals were Wor. Thomas J. Ames and Bro. Eben F. Pierce, both of whom had completed fifty years of active service in Masonry.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge is handing down to posterity records which show its patriotism during the trying days of World Wars I and II. Bonds were freely purchased, members who were in the service were exempted from dues, money was placed in the hands of the Red Cross to be used for furnishing tobacco to the boys who were across doing their bit, cigars were generously purchased by the Master and sent to the members who were overseas, and on May 17, 1918, the Lodge voted to purchase a service flag in honor of the boys who enlisted to uphold the integrity of our country. This service flag was dedicated on August 3, 1918.<br />
<br />
Again, on December 10, 1919, consideration was given by the Lodge to new quarters. A committee was appointed, which negotiated a lease for the delightful quarters which we now occupy for a sum of $1500.00 per year. The dedication of these quarters was held in April 1920, at which time Most Worshipful Grand Master Arthur Prince and his suite honored us by their presence. Prior to the installation ceremonies a banquet was held in the Municipal Building, which was enjoyed by 543 Masons.<br />
<br />
The beautiful lighting effects which we now enjoy were made possible by the generosity of Brother Horace F. Cook.<br />
<br />
The high-water mark for activities in Wilder Lodge occurred in 1919 when 88 persons were admitted, the work being performed during the course of 78 special and 12 regular communications. It was often necessary to hold four special communications a week for degree purposes; and the work incidental to the lecturing and raising of 88 persons to the degree of Master Mason in one year kept the officers extremely busy.<br />
<br />
At the time these quarters were leased, the social activities of the Lodge were taken over by the Acacia Club, and a recreational room was established in part of what is now the banquet hall. This was a radical departure from the previous custom of Wilder Lodge, as the old quarters in the Columbia Block contained only two card tables and a few packs of cards, which were procured only after considerable debate on the part of the members. This club flourished for several years, sponsoring many activities which proved to be delightful social affairs. Later, however, the club was disbanded, and the assets taken over by the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge was saddened in 1922 by the untimely death of Bro. Ralph D'Onfro, who was killed a few days prior to the date set for him to become a Master Mason. Realizing the favorable impression that Masonry had made on the young man, the family of our deceased Brother was anxious that a Masonic emblem be placed on his tombstone. This was done in an appropriate manner, showing his standing in the Craft at the time of his death. A set of solid silver working tools and the clock in the card room were given the Lodge by his widow in his memory.<br />
On March 11, 1923, under our sponsorship, a Chapter of DeMolay was organized. And on September 24, 1955, an Assembly of Rainbow Girls was instituted, sponsored by our affiliated Eastern Star.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge observed its 75th anniversary on June 6, 1934, during the term of Worshipful Master Guy S. Foote. There were over 250 present, including Most Worshipful Grand Master [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMChipman Curtis Chipman] and suite, together with visitors from fifteen different Lodges in Massachusetts, and three in New Hampshire. The address of the evening was given by the Most Worshipful Grand Master, and an interesting history of the Lodge was presented by Wor. Edgar E. Bullard.<br />
<br />
On December 1, 1936, a Past Master's jewel was presented to Wor. Oliver J. Putnam, who had been elected to serve this Lodge as Master in 1880, at which time Past Master's jewels were not given by Wilder Lodge. It was during the term of Wor. Andrew E. Harper, just fifty years ago, that this fine custom was started. Wor. Brother Putnam was raised a Master Mason on August 14, 1866. He entered the Holy of Holies on July 24, 1937, at the age of 95, his membership in Wilder Lodge covering a span of 71 years.<br />
<br />
In the fall of 1936, Wor. James C. Smith (Col. Smith, as we knew him), long an active Mason and one who was influential in instituting Leominster Royal Arch Chapter on December 8, 1923, was appointed District Deputy Grand Master of this District. He served less than a year when he was taken by death, the following July 26th. Wor. Frank D. Polley was appointed to complete this two-year term. On his first official visitation to Wilder Lodge, October 18, 1938, Right Worshipful Brother Polley presented the Lodge with our beautiful State Flag, a gift from himself and his three sons, Irving F., Robert G., and William E. Polley, all members of Wilder Lodge, in memory of his father, Frank D. Polley, who was a Charter Member of this Lodge.<br />
<br />
When Brother Vernon G. Wass was raised a Master Mason February 15, 1944, Bro. Arthur L. Wass, an older brother, gave an interesting history of Masonry in the Wass family, totaling at that time, 170 years. At present, there are six Wass brothers, and the son of one of them, who are members of this Lodge. This now makes a total of 277 years in Masonry for this one family (227 in Wilder Lodge).<br />
<br />
During his term as Master, Wor. Paul B. Beers suggested the possibilities of having an organ in the Lodge instead of the piano, but it was not considered advisable at that time. However, the seed had been sown; and it germinated and matured during Wor. Edward W. Carlson's regime. A Hammond Electric Organ was purchased and installed; and it was used for the first time during the conferring of an Entered Apprentice degree on January 14, 1947. <br />
<br />
The following month H. Leroy Cook completed his initiatory work and was raised by his cousin, Wor. Calvin Cook of Arlington. The grandfather of both of these men, Calvin B. Cook, served as the second Master of Wilder Lodge. Calvin's father received his degrees here and Leroy's son, Russell, is now a Past Master of this Lodge.<br />
<br />
In 1950 Wilder Lodge was again honored by the appointment of a District Deputy Grand Master, this time it being Wor. Frank H. Blackman, who is serving as Honorary Chairman of this celebration.<br />
<br />
On October 16, 1951, Aurora Lodge, through its Master, Wor. Kenneth H. Wyat, presented Wilder Lodge a page from a record book of Aurora Lodge, dated September II, 1825, which bears the signature of David A. Wilder, in whose honor this Lodge was named. This prized document is now framed and hangs on the wall of our anteroom.<br />
<br />
On May 16, 1955, Wor. Harrison V. Parker, on behalf of himself and his wife, Elizabeth, presented Wilder Lodge with a beautiful King James Version Bible. The following week it was dedicated in a very impressive service led by our Chaplain, Bro. John H. Peavey.<br />
<br />
During the past quarter century, the degree work has been colorfully presented by a number of visiting degree teams, such as the Scottish Hirams, Simonds' Sirams and the General Electric's 290 Club, as well as by our own very efficient officers.<br />
<br />
In recent years Wilder Lodge has actively supported the Blood Bank movement as one of its ways of expressing charity to its fellow man.<br />
At the meeting held on May 5, 1959, the Leominster Assembly No. 80, Order of the Rainbow for Girls, presented the Lodge with three silver batons suitably inscribed, as a gift in recognition of our 100th anniversary.<br />
<br />
If time permitted, there could be enumerated many other interesting facts connected with Wilder Lodge, including a number of three-generation groups, various activities in which members of Wilder Lodge have participated, individually or collectively, and individual records of long service in Masonry. One exception, however, is that of the speaker, who is the only living fifty-year Past Master of Wilder Lodge, he having served as Master exactly fifty years ago, when the Lodge celebrated its 50th anniversary, and is still actively interested in Masonry.<br />
<br />
This long record was recently noted, on March 17th of this year, when Wilder Lodge observed Past Masters' Night, with nineteen Past Masters participating in the work of conferring the Master Mason Degree. On that occasion, your humble servant was presented a fifty-year Past Master's Certificate from the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and signed by our Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAJenkins Andrew G. Jenkins]. This certificate is the first ever given to a member of Wilder Lodge, and is given only to fifty-year Past Masters.<br />
<br />
When the Secretary writes the records of this delightful occasion, graced by the presence of Most Worshipful Grand Master Andrew G. Jenkins and his suite, it will complete the chronology of leading events in the history of Leominster Masonry and of Wilder Lodge for the past one hundred years.<br />
<br />
In reviewing the life and activities of an organization such as Wilder Lodge, Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons, and thinking of the ideals that have held this group together, and then realizing that this is only one of thousands of such groups located in practically every country of this world, we cannot help being impressed and inspired by the closely-knit ties and the universal landmarks which have made this great brotherhood the greatest fraternal organization in the world. With one hundred years of fine leadership as a foundation, we cannot help looking forward with inspiration and hope to the next 25, 50 and 100 years, and trust that we will continue to grow and build our own physical and spiritual Temple. Therefore, we would do well on this occasion to rededicate our lives to upholding the splendid traditions of Wilder Lodge, which was named in honor of that sterling and sturdy gentleman, David Wilder, whose service to his fellow-men might well be an inspiration to us all; and to rededicate our lives to promoting and perpetuating the tenets, principles and precepts of our time-honored institution, which simply means to rededicate our lives to the ideals of the home, the church, the community, the state and our flag, ever remembering to meet each other on the level, always act on the plumb and part on the square.<br />

==== CONSTITUTION OF LODGE, AUGUST 1860 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XIX, No. 10, August 1860, Page 311:''<br />
<br />
The new Masonic Lodge at Leominster was constituted by the officers of the Grand Lodge, on Tuesday last. The members have named their Lodge after one of the oldest Masons in the Commonwealth, formerly State Treasurer, Hon. David Wilder, of Leominster. About a year ago, a dispensation was granted to this Lodge, and it has now received a charter by the name of the ''David Wilder Lodge.'' The members have erected a new hall for their meetings, and this was formally dedicated on Thursday afternoon by the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Grand Master]. In the evening, the officers elect for the ensuing, year were duly installed. Previous to the installation, a procession was formed by the David Wilder Lodge, escorting the Grand Lodge, and attended by the Leominster Band. After moving around the square to the Leominster House, the company entered the large dining hall, where a large party of ladies were assembled to welcome them. The ladies had prepared a surprise for their friends, in being present themselves and in attending to the decoration of the tables. Numerous beautiful bouquets were arranged on the tables, and appropriate – flowers with " a sprig of acacia" and a lily on each plate. A brief address was also delivered in behalf of the ladies, by Br. Smith, to which a suitable response was made by Dr. Winslow Lewis.<br />
<br />
The surprise and entertainment, as well as the presence of the ladies, were highly enjoyed. After supper a procession was again formed, this time including the ladies, and lead by the Band, the entire company proceeded to the new hall of the Lodge. Here, after a suitable introduction and music, the officers were duly installed by W. D. Coolidge, Esq., in ancient form; and this ceremony was made particularly interesting by the excellent manner in which it was performed. Music by the choir. An address, full of feeling and sentiment, and admirably adapted to the occasion, was then delivered by Grand Master Lewis, and suitable instructive remarks were made by Dr. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJSmith J. V. C. Smith] and Rev. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEWells E. M. P. Wells], of the Grand Lodge. Among other officers of the Grand Lodge present were Messrs.

<br />
===== ADDRESS BY THE GRAND MASTER =====<br />
<br />
''Gentlemen'',— It is no part of my purpose to apologize for my presence on this occasion.<br />
<br />
The cheerful smiles of those who are gathered here to greet you, tell the story; and it seems superfluous for me to say that they have come with the kindest feelings to tender to you their congratulations; to extend to you, their respected fathers, husbands, and friends, the fellowship of true and faithful hearts.<br />
<br />
They seek not to unroll the curtains drawn around your venerable Order. They honor fidelity, and cherish it in you as a priceless gem. They would aid you in every noble enterprise and hail with delight every success which crowns your labors. They have not been unmindful of these your present efforts, and rejoice that the ark of your covenant is fraternally consecrated.<br />
<br />
Around you are clustering their choicest affections. Their highest joys, their fondest hopes, center on you whose name they wear.<br />
<br />
Bearing to you this tender relation, it cannot be unwomanly or unkind to meet you on this happy eve, and regale you with music's soft and mellow strains; to bestow upon you those smiles you prized so much in days gone by; to wreathe your tables in flowers, and by their presence give social cheer to your festive board.<br />
In their behalf I tender to you this little surprise. Receive it in the kindness in which it is proffered. Forgive aught that your manly dignity may deem improper, and take their gathered lilies — emblems of purity, stainless and sweet.<br />
<br />
''Honored Guests of these our friends,'' — We bid you welcome, thrice welcome, to this innocent repast of and friends. Woman's mission is one of love, — to cheer and soothe life's stormy scenes, and scatter flowers along the way.<br />
<br />
True to herself, these fair hands have twined for you the summer flowers; and as you look upon their opening petals and matchless beauty, you will be reminded of the infinite skill and perfection of the Great Architect above. Accept them, ■with their best wishes that the wisdom which graced David's royal son may rest upon you in all your labors, till the Grand Master, whose summons we must all obey, shall call you to that temple not made with hands.<br />

==== HALL DEDICATION, APRIL 1875 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Freemason, Vol. I, No. 4, April 1875, Page 188:''<br />
<br />
''Dedication at Leominster.''—The new Masonic apartments of Wilder Lodge, of Leominster, were dedicated on the 15th inst. The Grand Master being prevented from attending by sickness, the ceremony was conducted by R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWelch Charles A. Welch], Deputy Grand Master. He was assisted by the following-named Brethren: P. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson Sereno D. Nickerson], as Special Deputy Grand Master; P. G. Warden [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEndicott Henry Endicott], as S. G. Warden; P. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], as J. G. Warden; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAOtherBrothersM#McCLELLAN.2C_JOHN_1813-1878 John McClellan], G. Treasurer; P. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge William D. Coolidge], as G. Secretary; R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCTitus Charles H. Titus], as G. Chaplain; Brother Frank E. Jones, as G. Marshal, and W. Brother J. W. Edgerly, as G. Tyler. The ceremony of dedication having been completed, the Deputy Grand Master briefly addressed the Lodge, congratulating them upon their improved accommodations, and the taste, skill and liberality displayed in furnishing them. He also exhorted them to display new zeal and diligence in the discharge of their duties as Masons, and to exercise increased vigilance in guarding the Fraternity against the admission of unworthy members.<br />
<br />
The Brethren were then called from labor to refreshment, and about one hundred and sixty of them sat down to a bountiful collation. This part of the entertainment having been disposed of very satisfactorily, the toast-master, Brother F. C. Bowen, addressed the company at some length, relating the particulars of the destruction of the former Lodge-room, the liberality of Brethren in providing everything necessary for the new, the sublime principles and important lessons inculcated by the Fraternity, and the happy results which would follow from a faithful observance of its teachings. In response to appropriate sentiments, brief speeches then followed from the Deputy Grand Master, the Past Grand Masters, Grand Secretary Titus, District Deputy Grand Master W. A. Smith, of Worcester, and Brothers Joslin and Huntley. Of the seven living Past Grand Masters, all were present but two; R. W. Brothers [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHeard John T. Heard] and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner Wm. S. Gardner] honoring the occasion with their presence, and participating in the festivities, in addition to the Brethren before named.<br />
<br />
Wilder Lodge was constituted in July, 1860. Eight Brethren signed the petition for a Dispensation, only three of whom are now living, and one, W. Brother Wm. Durant, was present at the dedication of the new hall. It has been distinguished for the excellence of its work and the high character of its members, and is now in a very flourishing condition, under the direction of the following-named officers: Samuel Whittier, W. M.; W. D. Somers, S. W.; J. D. Miller, J. W.; F. X. Boutwell, Treas.; George F. Morse, Sec.; T. J. Ames, S. D.; H. P. Durant, J. D.; Adam Urqunhart, S. S.; C. H. Glines, J. S.; Win. Durant, Chaplain; George England, Marshal; W. F. Wilkins, I. S.; J. S. Darling, Tyler.<br />
<br />
The new apartments comprise the whole of the upper story of a fine brick block just erected by Brother J. C. Allen, in the very centre of the flourishing town of Leominster. The main hall will compare very favorably with any Masonic hall of its size in the State. It is finely frescoed and elegantly appointed. There are, besides, three ante-rooms, a kitchen and banquet hall, all neatly and appropriately furnished. The walls of the Lodge-room are adorned with portraits of Past Masters [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLDWilder David Wilder], William Durant, Daniel R. Haines, Calvin B. Cook and John H. Lockey.<br />
<br />
In the evening a reception was held, to which ladies, and the public generally, were admitted. A supper, music, and dancing in the lower hall, made the time pass very pleasantly. The whdle occasion was greatly enjoyed by all who were present, and the day will be long remembered by the Brethren of Wilder Lodge as one of great pleasure and satisfaction.<br />

==== ANTIQUE DOOR KNOCKER, NOVEMBER 1915 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. XI, No. 2, November 1915, Page 44:''<br />
<br />
'''The Antique: By Charles Dana Burrage, Past Grand High Priest'''<br />
<br />
<p align=center><br />

</p><br />
<br />
Attending the celebration of the 50th anniversary of Hope Lodge of Gardner in February, 1914, I was greatly impressed by the quaint design and exceeding beauty of the door knocker on the Tyler's door of the lodge and I immediately asked the privilege of calling it to the attention of the readers of the ''New England Craftsman''.<br />
<br />
The knocker is in two parts, the upper part, or knocker, being of unusual form, as shown in the photograph. The base upon which the knocker strikes, contains a very richly engraved Arabic inscription in ancient characters. The door knocker weighs from 15 to 18 pounds, is made of bell metal, is filigreed around the edge and inlaid with gold, silver and other metals. According to A. V. Williams Jackson, Professor of the Department of Indo-Iranian Languages, of Columbia University, New-York, whose assistant, Dr. A. Yohannson, in conference with Professor Jackson studied out the meaning of the intricate and involved characters, the translation is as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Any one who presumes to enter this edifice and knocks for some reason of importance will be welcome.<br><br />
But every one who intrudes or seeks to disturb will be stopped by the one on guard."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Dr. Yohannson reports that there was considerable difficulty in translating the inscription because the Arabic characters were of exceedingly ancient form and intricate in design and undoubtedly many hundreds of years old.<br />
<br />
The knocker was obtained during the travels in Egypt of Ledoit B. Ramsdell, a member of Hope Lodge, and the story of its acquisition is as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"When I was in Cairo, Egypt, a few years ago, I was struck by the beauty of the door knockers on the Mosques, and asked my dragoman if he could procure one for me. After looking around for some time, he told me that he had found one, and I went with him to see it to a curio shop which was run by an old Mohammedan who dealt in antique bronzes. I asked the dealer if he knew anything of the former history of this old knocker and he informed me that it was taken from an old Mohammedan mosque. The knocker was very old and very rare; in fact, he said he probably could not find another one like it in all Egypt.<br><br />
<br><br />
After considerable dickering back and forth, I purchased it, brought it home and presented it to my home Masonic Lodge, Hope Lodge of Gardner."<br />

<br />
==== HISTORICAL ADDRESS, FEBRUARY 1897 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1897-26:''<br />
<br />
It is well, whether as individuals or as an organization, when any special anniversary mile-stone in the march of life is reached, to pause, glance back over the past, review its successes and its failures, and seek to profit by their lessons for us in the forward march into the future.<br />
<br />
So, upon this special anniversary, as well of the birth of our most illustrious Brother, the immortal George Washington, as our own as a Lodge, we assemble, and for the moment look back into the history of the past of Hope Lodge. It has fallen to the lot of the speaker, by request of the Committee of Arrangements, to act as the historian of the day. Conscious of my lack I am thankful for the honor bestowed. We are as a Lodge thankful for the honor conferred upon us by the presence of the representatives of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge and of so many representatives of the Craft from sister Lodges.<br />
<br />
At the twenty-fifth anniversary of Hope Lodge, its history up to that point was given in an eloquent Address by Wor. Bro. John D. Edgell. Of course the historical facts of the present Address must of necessity be a repetition up to that time, with the addition of its history since. <br />
<br />
It is not material for us to know whether Freemasonry existed before the flood; we do know that it has existed since. Whether its inception was with the giving of the patterns to Moses in the Mount and the building of the Tabernacle and continued in the building of King Solomon's Temple or not, it is enough for us to know that our beloved Institution is both Ancient and Honorable. "Even<br />
monarchs have for a season exchanged the sceptre for the trowel to patronize our mysteries and join in our assemblies."<br />
<br />
It has withstood the assaults of ignorance, hypocrisy and superstition, from time immemorial. It has been tried: in the fires of adversity and has come out purified as the fine gold. Evidences of the handiwork of the Craft, of which there can be no doubt, exist, that show its great antiquity.<br />
From an essay entitled ''The First Glimpses of Freemasonry in North America," by R.W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson Sereno D. Nickerson], Past Grand Master, and Recording Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, I quote as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"I find that the earliest trace of the existence of Masons or Masonry on this continent so far as we are now aware, is indicated by the discovery of a flat slab of stone, near Annapolis in Nova Scotia, on which was engraved a square and compasses and the date, 1606; this is the earliest footprint of Masonry upon the continent."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The first warranted Lodge of Freemasons in America was at Boston in 1733. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrice Henry Price], of Boston, was appointed Provincial Grand Master — letters of commission coming from Viscount Montague, Grand Master of England. From small beginnings the Institution spread and flourished for a century. Then came the Morgan excitement, that cast a cloud over the Craft until the great light of truth overcame the clouds of prejudice and ignorance, and the Institution came forth into a brighter and purer light from its temporary obscuration.<br />
<br />
From that time on Masonry in this country has steadily and quietly pursued its onward march, keeping pace with the "Westward Ho!" of the Republic.<br />
<br />
In the year 1864 there were a number of Masons in Gardner, "good men and true," who felt the need of the establishment of a Lodge. Acting upon that desire they petitioned the Grand Lodge to that effect. The following named Brethren were signers of the petition: LEVI HEYWOOD, GEORGE NICHOLS, HORACE WHITNEY, ANDREW J. MOORE, HENRY C. HILL, CHARLES HEYWOOD, EDWARD J. SAWYER, GEORGE E. WOODMAN, JAMES A. LAKIN, NATHANIEL HOLMES.<br />
<br />
The Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, by virtue of the authority vested in him, granted a Dispensation "authorizing and empowering the aforesaid well-beloved Brothers to form and open a Lodge after the manner of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, and therein to admit and make Freemasons, according to the ancient customs, and not<br />
otherwise."<br />
<br />
The records of the Lodge while under Dispensation show a large amount of Masonic work. At the expiration of one year, a second petition was presented to the M. W. Grand Lodge, signed by LEVI HEYWOOD, HORACE WHITNEY, CHARLES HEYWOOD, HENRY C. HILL, EDWARD J. SAWYER, ALONZO B. CLARK, GEORGE HEYWOOD, GEORGE NICHOLS, GEORGE E. WOODMAN, WILLIAM D. HERRICK,<br />
A. M. GREENWOOD, NATHANIEL HOLMES, JOHN W. HILL, JAMES H. GREENWOOD, FERNANDO C. WHITCOMB.<br />
<br />
The petitioners prayed "that they might be erected and constituted into a regular Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons under the name of Hope Lodge, and that a charter might be issued to them empowering them to assemble in the town of Gardner and discharge the duties of Masonry in a regular and constitutional manner, according to the ancient ways and customs of the Fraternity."<br />
<br />
In response to that petition a Charter was granted, specially enjoining upon the Brethren "carefully to transact all matters relating to the Craft; to enter Apprentices, pass Fellow-Crafts, raise Master Masons, collect funds for the relief of poor and distressed Brethren, their widows<br />
and orphans; to attend the Communications of the Grand Lodge, and punctually pay all sums assessed for its support," and further it expressly declared that "the precedence of said Lodge in the Grand Lodge and elsewhere should commence from the twenty-second clay of February, Anno Lucis 5864."<br />
<br />
This Charter was signed by<br />
* [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman WILLIAM PARKMAN], Grand Master.<br />
* [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWDavis WENDELL T. DAVIS], Senior Grand Warden.<br />
* [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLSThornton SOLON THORNTON]. Junior Grand Warden.<br />
* [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGSCWMoore CHARLES W. MOORE], Grand Secretary.<br />
<br />
The first officers chosen by Hope Lodge were<br />
* CHARLES HEYWOOD, Master.<br />
* HENRY C. HILL, Senior Warden.<br />
* EDWARD J. SAWYER, Junior Warden.<br />
* ALONZO B. CLARK, Treasurer.<br />
* GEORGE HEYWOOD, Secretary.<br />
* GEORGE E. WOODMAN, Senior Deacon.<br />
* GEORGE NICHOLS, Junior Deacon.<br />
* L. S. STOWE, Senior Steward.<br />
* ANDREW J. MOORE, Junior Steward.<br />
<br />
Thirty-three Brethren were added to the Fraternity by the work of the Lodge under Dispensation. The rooms used by the Lodge then were over the horse-sheds attached to the store of Abel S. Wood, which stood upon a portion of what subsequently became the lawn of our late Bro. Alvin M. Greenwood. Your historian records with pleasure that he there first beheld 'the "form of a Lodge," and received his first instructions as the youngest Entered Apprentice thereof.<br />
<br />
The first official visitation by the Grand Lodge to Hope Lodge was made Dec. 6, 1864. The Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman] was attended by the following suite:<br />
* R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWDavis WENDELL T. DAVIS], Senior Grand Warden<br />
* R. W. WILLIAM D. STRATTON, Grand Marshal, ''as'' Junior Grand Warden.<br />
* R. W. FREDERICK J. FOSS, Grand Treasurer.<br />
* R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGSCMoore CHARLES W. MOORE], Recording Grand Secretary.<br />
* Bro. EBEN F. GAY, Grand Tyler.<br />
On that occasion the Lodge exemplified the work of the Third degree, Bro. Albert Lovejoy being the candidate.<br />
<br />
The Lodge soon outgrew its accommodations and a new Hall was fitted up in the upper portion of the Town Hall building. Most of the older members will remember that we used to reach those rooms by a stairway on the outside of the building; and that we were often reminded (in winter) that "sinners stood upon slippery places." Those rooms were dedicated and consecrated to the uses of Freemasonry on the third day of May, 1865, by appropriate ceremonies, and its officers<br />
publicly installed by the Most Worshipful William Parkman and suite.<br />
<br />
The Worshipful Masters have been:<br />
* Charles Heywood<br />
* Charles N. Edgell<br />
* Henry C. Hill<br />
* Henry H. Adams<br />
* Edward J. Sawyer<br />
* Charles A. Cowee<br />
* John D. Edgell<br />
* Arthur P. Derby<br />
* Frank W. Cummings<br />
* Charles O. Plautier<br />
* Charles F. Read<br />
* Calvin H. Hill<br />
* William Stone<br />
* George E. Walker<br />
* Marcus H. Howe<br />
* Volney W. Howe<br />
* Florus D. Ramsdell<br />
<br />
The oldest member of the Lodge is Seth Heywood, a Brother upon whose head the frosts of more than four score winters sit lightly. One of whom it may be truly said, "the almond-tree doth flourish, yet the grasshopper is no burden." The weight of years permits only occasional visits to the Lodge, but his interest in Masonry, and in Hope Lodge in particular, is still unabated. May many more years of usefulness be added to his already long life!<br />
<br />
The Lodge held its first Masonic Festival July 2, 1866; voted aid to the sufferers by the Portland fire, Sept. 18, 1866; attended the dedication of the Masonic Temple, Boston, June 24, 1867; suffered the first death of a member, March 31, 1871; participated in the Centennial celebration<br />
of the town, June 27, 1885, entertaining as guests [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Artisan Artisan] Lodge, of Winchendon.<br />
<br />
From the organization of the Lodge until the present time 277 Brethren have signed its By-Laws. The number of members in good standing to-day is 185. Since the date of organization we have lost by death forty-five members. The following-named Brethren have passed on to "that bourne whence no traveller returns:"<br />

Truly<br />
<blockquote><br />
"There is a reaper whose name is death<br><br />
And with his sickle keen,<br><br />
He reaps the bearded grain with a breath<br><br />
And the flowers that grow between."<br />

<br />
We have always held in grateful remembrance the first three Masters of the Lodge, — its three strong pillars. To maintain the high standard of work set by them has always been the aim of their successors in office; and very much of the prosperity enjoyed may be directly traced thereto.<br />
<br />
The establishment of a charity fund was one of the first things attended to; and year by year our fund has increased until now it shows a balance of $3,218.23. A little more than $1,900 was paid into the building fund for the erection of the new Masonic Temple in Boston. We have an efficient Charity Committee whose ministrations are of the quiet, "distilling" kind that refreshes and blesses. I have asked of them no statistics.<br />
<br />
The Lodge-room in the Town Hall building, owing to the increase in membership, had for a long time been too small for the Lodge, and they embraced the first opportunity for a change for the better. The result is evident in these beautiful rooms, to-day dedicated to the uses of Masonry. "Hope ends in fruition." So, to-day, Hope Lodge sees the fruition of her hopes for new quarters, in their realization. Upon this thirty-third anniversary of the organization of the Lodge, we can look back with satisfaction over the past and its noble and honorable record. The Thirty-third degree is the highest in Masonry. The Lodge has reached that number in the rolling years of its existence, yet it is still incumbent upoii us to press on to still greater perfection in everything that pertains to true Masonry, remembering that the rough ashler only becomes the perfect by constant labor.<br />
<br />
My Brethren: Let us never forget the boundary line of our duty, observing unwaveringly all of its obligations. When we are asked by our friends, not Masons, questions that indicate their honest interest, let us guide them in the light of truth. If they ask us to define Masonry, let us tell them frankly that Masonry is not a religion, but that it is a beautiful system of morality veiled in allegory; and that it is so far interwoven with religion as to lay us under obligations of reverence and homage, and that those obligations are vividly impressed upon the mind of the novice.<br />
<br />
Let the Mystic Tie that binds find its exemplification in our daily lives. Let us not grope in the darkness of our own passions and prejudices, but be guided by the three great Lights, and thus we shall not materially err.<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Who, looking backward from his manhood's prime,<br><br />
Sees not the spectre of his misspent time?<br><br />
Yet, who, thus looking backward o'er his years,<br><br />
Feels not his eyelids wet with grateful tears,<br><br />
If he hath been permitted, weak and sinful as he was,<br><br />
To cheer and aid, in some ennobling cause,<br><br />
His fellow-men?<br><br />
<br><br />
"He has not lived in vain, and while he gives<br><br />
The praise to Him, in whom he moves and lives<br><br />
With thankful heart,<br><br />
He gazes backward, and with hope before,<br><br />
Knowing that from his works he nevermore<br><br />
Can henceforth part."<br />

<br />
It has now become my duty and privilege to give you a short history of Hope Lodge. I fully realize that I may make omissions and commissions in what I may say.<br />
<br />
I will begin by reading a very important communication sent to the Grand Lodge sometime prior to February 22, 1864.<br />
<blockquote><br />
''To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of Massachusetts:''<br><br />
<br><br />
The undersigned petitioners, being Ancient Free and Accepted Master Masons having the prosperity of the Fraternity at heart, and willing to exert their best endeavors to promote and diffuse the genuine principles of Masonry, respectfully represent —<br><br />
<br><br />
That for the convenience of their respective dwellings, and for other good reasons, they are desirous of forming a new lodge in the Town of Gardner to be named Hope Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />

<br><br />
They have nominated and do recommend Brother Charles Heywood to be the first Master. Brother Henry C. Hill to be the first Senior Warden, and Brother Edward J. Sawyer to be the first Junior Warden of said Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />

===== 1864 =====<br />
<br />
The first regular communication of Hope Lodge was held in Freemasons Hall, Gardner, on Tuesday Evening, March 22, 1864. Present : <br />
* Charles Heywood, Master<br />
* Henry C. Hill, Senior Warden<br />

<br />
Forty-six meetings were held in 1864. Six meetings were held in 1865 and then a petition was sent to the Grand Lodge informing them that the petitioners had worked for a year under a Dispensation.<br />
<br />
The petitioners now requested that they, and such others as may join them, may be erected and constituted into a regular Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, under the name and title of Hope Lodge and that a Charter be issued. This request was granted, and Hope Lodge was given a Charter. The Charter was signed March 9, 1865, Anno Lucis 5865.<br />
<br />
M. W. William Parkman, Grand Master, with a delegation from the Grand Lodge visited Hope Lodge December 6, 1864.<br />
<br />
On May 9, 1864, a petition signed by Brother J. G. Folsom and others from Winchendon to the Grand Lodge for letters of Dispensation was presented for endorsement by Hope Lodge which after a discussion was not granted.<br />
<br />
A Committee was appointed to secure subscriptions to pay for building and furnishing the Hall. <br />
<br />
On July 18th, 1865, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Star Star] Lodge invited Hope Lodge to be present on Thursday July 20, 1865, to join with them in the dedication and consecration of their new Hall. It was voted to accept the invitation.<br />

<br />
April 9, 1889. Voted — that the thanks of the Lodge be given to John D. Edgell for his excellent historical address. By vote of the Lodge Secretary John D. Edgell was instructed to lay upon the records of the lodge in full his historical address. This was evidently not done, as I have been unable to find any account of the same.<br />
<br />
===== LOCATIONS OF LODGE-ROOMS =====<br />
<br />
The first Lodge-room was located in Freemasons' Hall north of the house now owned by Richard N. Greenwood on Elm Street. There was a store in the downstairs part occupied by Abel Wood. The sign over Abel Woods' store is now safely stored in the School Department's Supply Room downstairs in City Hall. The building was torn down during the years 1865 or 1866.<br />
<br />
"Hope Lodge then secured quarters in the upper story of the Town Hall, the dimensions of which were 55 x 35 feet exclusive of ante-rooms of which there were four. The Main hall was finely frescoed and appropriately ornamented and handsomely carpeted; as are all the rooms." "The furniture, including the altar, pedestals, chairs and settees, we believe were all made by the Heywood Chair Manufacturing Company of Gardner expressly for the Lodge, and do great credit, in the excellence of their workmanship, to the skill and good taste of that popular establishment." ''(Quoting from the Levi H. Greenwood Historical Address on the fifteenth anniversary.)''<br />
<br />
The Lodge was constituted in the upper Town Hall by the Grand Master and his officers. There were about sixty Brethren present.<br />
<br />
In the evening there was a public installation of Hope Lodge officers by the Grand Master at which time there were present more than two hundred of the ladies and gentlemen of the village. An able and appropriate address by the Grand Master followed. He complimented Hope Lodge and said it was one of the best and most perfect in its work in this jurisdiction.<br />
<br />
The furniture which was In use during the time the Lodge was in the Upper Town Hall is now in a room adjacent to the present Lodge-room in the Syndicate Building. The old organ is also located there. The electric light fixtures in our present ante rooms were installed in the old Lodge-room in 1889.<br />
<br />
In the early days of Hope Lodge candles were to some extent used for lighting and on February 28, 1882, it was voted "that suitable lights be procured to take the place of candles now in use." Five kerosene brackets had been purchased however in 1864 at a cost of $11.25. It may be interesting to the Brethren that due to the recent hurricane, the Lodge building and rooms were so damaged that electricity was not available and the present officers were installed by the District Deputy Grand Master by the sole and only light obtained from candles.<br />
<br />
On May 14, 1895, a Special Meeting was called to consider what action would be taken to secure new quarters in the New Syndicate Block to be erected at the head of Chestnut Street.<br />
<br />
Under date of June 4, 1895, a letter was read from the syndicate corporation offering the use of the hall for $350.00 including water and heating two nights a month. If heat is desired more than that it will be furnished at cost.<br />
<br />
===== FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY =====<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting of Hope Lodge held June 17, 1913 It was voted to observe the Fiftieth Anniversary of Hope Lodge on February 22nd and 23rd, 1914.<br />

<br />
The celebration was financed through the sale of tickets, and voluntary contributions by Lodge members, almost half of the $1101.50 being made up of such voluntary contributions. The very large number of Brothers who contributed, and the generous response to all requests of the Committee, and the energy and care of the finance Committee enabled the Lodge to report a balance of $2.03.<br />
<br />
A Special Communication of Hope Lodge was held Sunday, February 22, 1914, in Masonic Hall for the purpose of attending Divine Worship at the First Congregational Church at 10.30 A.M. The Lodge was escorted to and from the Church by Eminent Commander C. H. Hartshorn and a detail of Sir Knights from Ivanhoe Commandery No. 46. At the Service, prayer was offered by W. Rev. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEHorton Edward A. Horton], Grand Chaplain. The Sermon ''An Interpretation of Masonry'' was preached by Rev. Bro. F. F. Ramsdell.

===== THE FLIGHT OF STEPS =====<br />
<br />
At a meeting of Hope Lodge held October 20, 1914, the following motion was made: "''Voted.'' That a Committee be appointed to see the Water Commissioners of the Town of Gardner, and the State Hoard of Health to ascertain if there would be any objection to the use of the top of the Gardner reservoir by the Public as a place to enjoy the exceptionally fine view which can be obtained from there.<br />
Also to get estimates on the cost of a flight of steps from the base to the top of the reservoir and to attend to any preliminaries incident to the construction and gift of these steps to the Town of Gardner by Hope Lodge."<br />
<br />

Smead, Chairman of the Committee on the Flight of Steps to be erected,reported that no serious objection was made by the State Board of Health, and the Gardner Water Commissioners to the erection of the steps up to the reservoir. It was voted to build the steps if the cost did not exceed $500.<br />
<br />
Four new members were appointed to the Committee:<br />
* Bro. Stanford H. Hartshorn<br />
* Bro. George E. Priest<br />
* Bro. Edwin F. Brainard and <br />
* Bro. Herman D. Bone.<br />
<br />
A Special Communication on June 9, 1915, was held for the purpose of celebrating the Fiftieth Anniversary of Wor Bro. John D. Edgell, he having become a member of Hope Lodge June 6, 1865. Worshipful Master Charles W. Brown presented Wor. Bro. Edgell a Henry Price medal. All the living Past Masters with the exception of Wor. Bro. Charles N. Edgell who was ill, were present.<br />
<br />
Interesting remarks were made by Brother Nichols, the only living Charter Member of Hope Lodge, also by Wor. Bro. John D. Fdgell and Charles A. Read.<br />
<br />
On November 15, 1916, Bro. George A. Matthews made a financial report as Treasurer of the Masonic Steps Committee. A Committee of three was appointed by the Wor. Master to arrange for the presentation and present to the Town of Gardner the Masonic Steps built at the reservoir. The following members were appointed.<br />
* Wor. Bro. Charles N. Edgell <br />
* Bro. Amasa B. Bryant <br />

It is the hope of the donors of these steps that their free use by the citizens of the Town may bring about a broader appreciation of the beauties of nature revealed from the vantage point to which they lead, and thereby make for a greater feeling of contentment and satisfaction with the community in which we all have a common interest and pride.

===== 1919-1939 =====<br />
<br />
During the Masonic years of 1919, 1920, and 1921 there were many new members initiated into Hope Lodge, and its greatest growth occurred at that time. In 1919 and 1920 there were held during the term of Wor. Master Fordyce T. Reynolds, eleven regular, one annual and thirty-four special meetings. There were sixty-eight candidates balloted upon during the year. There were six meetings during one week. The Worshipful Master being ill, the work was carried on by Senior Warden George N. Archibald.<br />
<br />
May I, at this time, again thank the officers who served with me. We all enjoyed many happy meetings together.<br />
<br />
I wish to express my appreciation to Wor. Bro. John H. Jenkins who acted as District Deputy Grand Marshal and Wor. Bro. J. Myron Moore who served as District Deputy Grand Secretary.<br />
<br />
When I held the office of District Deputy, due to their help and inspiration the official visits were conducted in a very proper manner.<br />
On June 17, 1924, Worshipful Master Clifford W. Shippee had the rather unique distinction of conferring the third degree upon his son, Roland F. Shippee. Few presiding masters have done this.<br />
<br />
Hope Lodge has been happy on various occasions to have the officers of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=CharlesWMoore Charles W. Moore] Lodge, of Fitchburg, visit and confer degrees for us. Also [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Middlesex Middlesex] Lodge, of Framingham. On other occasions the chairs have been filled by representatives of the Heywood-Wakefield Co. Also by employees of the Florence Stove Co. These special occasions all make for good fellowship.<br />
<br />
On March 17, 1925, some flowers were sent to Wor. Bro. Herbert T. Adams as he was ill at his home. This was the first time that Wor. Bro. Adams had missed a Third Degree meeting since his connection with the Lodge. May I mention that the Master's Lecture as given by Wor. Bro. Adams for many years past has been a perfect piece of work. The Brethren have always enjoyed hearing him.<br />
<br />
The work done by Hope Lodge during the past years has been well done. The officers have been efficient in the ritual and interest has been kept. Owing to lack of time I must necessarily omit many items of interest during many years which are very familiar to many.<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, FEBRUARY 1964 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1964-6:''<br />
<br />
''by Worshipful Hervey F. Bowden.''<br />
<br />
It has seemed fitting as we are about to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of Hope Lodge to review its history and to pay tribute to that farsighted little band of Masons who had the necessary initiative to lay its foundations, and whose enthusiasm, fortitude, and untiring labor with eyes ever on the chartered course, made it possible for us to enjoy the privileges of Masonry in the City of Gardner.<br />
<br />
I deeply appreciate the honor and also the confidence shown by my brethren in assigning me this task of historian. I approach it with sincerity and deep humility, fully realizing that I may make omissions and commissions in what I shall write. Our history opens in the winter of 1864, a year of decisions in United States History. President Lincoln had just united all the armies of the Union under General Grant and he was about to carry out the so-called Anaconda Policy that would squeeze the life out of the Confederacy's armies and bring the war to a successful conclusion.<br />
<br />
On February 1864 the following important communication was sent to the Grand Lodge in Boston:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"To the most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of Massachusetts.<br><br />
<br><br />
The undersigned petitioners, being Ancient, Free and Accepted Master Masons, having the Prosperity of the Fraternity at heart, and willing to exert their best endeavors to promote and diffuse the genuine principles of Masonry, respectfully represent — That for the convenience of their respective dwellings, and for other good reasons, they are desirous of forming a new lodge in the town of Gardner to be named Hope Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
They, therefore, pray for letters of dispensation, or a warrant of Constitution, to empower them to assemble as a legal Lodge, to discharge the duties of Masonry in a regular and constitutional manner according to the original forms of the Order and the regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
They have nominated and do recommend Brother Charles Heywood to be the first Master, Brother Henry C. Hill to be the first Senior Warden, and Brother Edward J. Sawyer to be the first Junior Warden of said Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
If the prayer of the petitioners shall be granted, they promise a strict conformity to all the Constitutions, laws and regulations of the Grand Lodge."<br><br />
<br><br />
''Signed:''<br><br />
<br><br />
Levi Heywood, George Nichols, Horace Whitney, Nathaniel J. Holmes, Henry C. Hill, Andrew J. Moore, Edward J. Sawyer, Charles Heywood, James A. Larkin, George E. Woodman.<br><br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
In due time the following reply to the petition was received from the Grand Master:<br />
<blockquote><br />
To all persons to whom these presents may come<br><br />
<br><br />
Greeting:<br><br />
<br><br />
"Whereas a petition has been presented to me by sundry Brethren, to wit, Levi Heywood, Horace Whitney, Henry C. Hill, Edward J. Sawyer, James A. Larkin, George Nichols, Andrew J. Moore, Charles Heywood, George Woodman, and Nathaniel Holmes — praying to be congregated into a regular lodge under the name and title of Hope Lodge with permission to hold the same in the Town of Gardner, and whereas, said Petitioners have been recommended to me as Master Masons in good standing by the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Brethren of Aurora Lodge, holden in the Town of Fitchburg; and their petition having been countersigned and approved by our District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MADISTRICT3_1849-66 Third Masonic District].<br><br />
<br><br />
Therefore, I, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, reposing full confidence in the recommendation aforesaid and in the Masonic integrity and ability of the Petitioners, do, by virtue of the authority in my office, and of Ancient Masonic usage, thereby grant the Dispensation, authorizing and empowering our trusty and well beloved Brethren aforesaid to form and open a Lodge, after the manner of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons and therein to admit and make Freemasons, according to the Ancient Custom and not otherwise. And this Dispensation is to continue in full force until the regular Quarterly Communication of the Grand Lodge aforesaid to be holden in the City of Boston in the month of March A.D. 1865 A.L. S86S unless sooner revoked by me, or by authority of our said Grand Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
And I do hereby appoint Brother Charles Heywood to be the First Master, Brother Henry C. Hill to be the First Senior Warden and Brother Edward J. Sawyer to be the First Junior Warden of our said Lodge. And it shall be the duty of said Master and Wardens and their associates and they are hereby required to return the Dispensation, with a correct transcript of all proceedings, had under the authority of the same, together with an attested copy of their By-Laws to our Grand Lodge aforesaid at the expiration of the time herein specified, for examination, and such further action in the premises as shall be deemed wise and proper for the advancement of the general interests of the Craft.<br><br />
<br><br />
Given under our hand and the Seal of the Grand Lodge, aforesaid, at Boston, this twenty-second day of February A.D. 1864 A.L. 5864.<br><br />
<br><br />
[http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], Grand Master <br><br />
''Attest'' [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GSCWMoore Charles W. Moore], Grand Secretary<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The first regular communication of Hope Lodge was held in the Freemasons Hall, Gardner, on Tuesday evening, March 22, 1864. The first lodge rooms were over the horse sheds attached to the store of Abel S. Wood, located on Elm Street north of the present American Legion Building.<br />
<br />
The three top officers having been selected by the original petitioners, the appointive officers were now chosen as follows: Alonzo B. Clark, Treasurer; George Heywood, Secretary; George E. Woodman, Senior Deacon; George Nichols, Junior Deacon; Luke S. Stowe, Senior Steward; Andrew J. Moore, Junior Steward.<br />
<br />
Forty-six meetings were held in 1864 and six in 1865.<br />
<br />
On the 6th of December 1864, occurred the first official visitation of the Grand Lodge, when William Parkman, Grand Master and his suite were present. Albert Lovejoy was then raised to the degree of Master Mason and it is most interesting to read the following from the Grand Master's report:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"A few days since, in company with several grand officers, we paid a visit to Hope Lodge of Gardner, now under dispensation. The work was absolutely the most perfect I have ever seen; all the officers are excellent workmen and skilled lecturers; and no Brother is permitted to be advanced from one degree to another until he can pass a critical examination in presence of the assembled lodge; a most excellent provision, which is earnestly commended to all lodges both old and new, and which will be found to largely advance the interest of every lodge in which it may be adopted."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The Lodge soon outgrew its accommodations and a new hall was fitted up in the upper portion of the old Town Hall.<br />
<br />
March 3, 1865, the members of Hope Lodge met for the last time in the lodge room over Abel Wood's Store.<br />
<br />
Older members have recorded that the new rooms in the Town Hall were reached by a stairway on the outside of the building; and one Brother declares that in winter we were often reminded that, "Sinners stood upon slippery places."<br />
<br />
The new rooms were dedicated and consecrated to the uses of Freemasonry on May 3, 1865, by appropriate ceremonies. Its officers were publicly installed at this meeting by the Most Worshipful William Parkman and suite. The only account of this ceremony, which included the Lodge's official constitution, is found in Moore's Freemasons Magazine. A portion of the account follows, "This new Lodge was duly constituted under its Charter on the afternoon of Wednesday, May 3rd, by a delegation of the officers of the Grand Lodge. The ceremonies took place in the new hall, which the Lodge, since the expiration of its dispensation in March, has fitted up for its accommodation. There were about sixty Brethren present including visitors from the neighboring towns. At the conclusion of this ceremony, the Lodge took a recess until the evening, when the ladies and invited guests were admitted and the new hall was dedicated in accordance with the ancient customs of the Craft. The company then repaired to the Town Hall, where in the presence of more than two hundred ladies and gentlemen the officers of the new Lodge were installed by the Most Worshipful Grand Master. Following the usual ceremonies an able and appropriate address was delivered by the Grand Master and was listened to by the large audience present with apparent interest and satisfaction."<br />
<br />
In the early days of Hope Lodge candles were used to some extent for lighting. However, in 1864 five kerosene brackets were purchased at a cost of $11.25. It was not until February 28, 1882, that kerosene lights took the place of the candles completely.<br />
<br />
It is of some interest to note the cost of operation in those days. Rent of quarters $25 a year, heating $8.50 a year, Treasurer's salary $10. In the Treasurer's report of March 7, 1869, we read that the cost of entertaining District Deputy Hardy was $1.50.<br />
<br />
The following are a few interesting notes on Hope Lodge History.<br />
<br />
August 1, 1865; the committee to solicit funds for the new hall reported that $2,687.50 had been secured.<br />
<br />
December 18, 1888; voted to observe the twenty-fifth anniversary of Hope Lodge.<br />
<br />
April 9, 1889; voted that the thanks of the Lodge be given to John D. Edgell, Lodge Secretary, for his excellent historical address.<br />
<br />
The Lodge rooms in the Town Hall building, owing to the increase in membership, had for a long time been too small for the Lodge. May 14, 1895, a special meeting was called to consider what action would be taken to secure new quarters in the Syndicate Block about to be erected at the head of Chestnut Street.<br />
<br />
June 4, 1895, a letter was read in the Lodge from the Syndicate Corporation offering the use of the hall for $350 a year including water and heating two nights a month. If heat is desired more often than that, it will be furnished at cost.<br />
<br />
===== DEDICATION OF THE NEW HALL OF HOPE LODGE =====<br />
<br />
On Monday, February 22, 1897, a special communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge was held in the new Lodge rooms for the purpose of dedicating the new hall. The Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHutchinson Charles C. Hutchinson], accompanied by a full corps of officers was present. This event also marked the thirty-third anniversary of Hope Lodge.<br />
<br />
The Grand Lodge was opened in Ample Form in one of the anterooms of the new hall at 1:55 P.M. A procession of the Grand Officers was formed and escorted by a committee of Past Masters to the Lodge room where the Brethren were in order as Master Masons.<br />
<br />
The Worshipful Master, Brother Florus D. Ramsdell, cordially welcomed the Most Worshipful Grand Master, who responded in a few fitting words and accepted the chair and the gavel, the Grand Officers at the same time assuming their appropriate stations.<br />
<br />
The exercises were commenced with the singing, by the Columbian Quartette, of the Anthem "Hark! Hark! To The Voices Exulting That Rise." Prayer was offered by the Grand Chaplain. The Working tools were then surrendered by Wor. Bro. Volney W. Howe as Architect.<br />
<br />
The customary examination of the new building was made by the Grand Officers, and the report being satisfactory the Grand Master proceeded to dedicate the apartments to Freemasonry, to Virtue and to Universal Benevolence, in accordance with ancient form and usage, and the Ritual of the Grand Lodge. He then delivered a stirring address to the Brethren.<br />
<br />
This was followed by an address on the history of Hope Lodge delivered by Wor. Brother Charles F. Read.<br />
<br />
Upon the conclusion of the services the Grand Lodge withdrew to the place of opening and was closed in Ample Form at 3:45 P.M.<br />
<br />
===== FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY =====<br />
<br />
The size and strength of Hope Lodge steadily increased during the early years of the twentieth century. 1914 would be its fiftieth anniversary. Preparations for a proper observance took definite form at the regular meeting June 17, 1913, when the then Senior Warden, Merton H. Greene, introduced a motion: "That we observe the fiftieth anniversary of Hope Lodge on February 22-23, 1914, and that a General Committee be appointed by the Worshipful Master, for the purpose of arranging an appropriate program for this event."<br />
<br />
Invitations were sent to the members of the Massachusetts Grand Lodge and all the Brethren of the Thirteenth Masonic District to join in the Semi-centennial of Hope Lodge.<br />
<br />
A Special Communication of Hope Lodge was held Sunday, February 22, 1914 in Masonic Hall for the purpose of attending Divine Worship at the First Congregational Church at 10:30 A.M. The Lodge members were escorted to and from the Church by Eminent Commander C. H. Hartshorn and a detail<br />
of Sir Knights from Ivanhoe Commandery No. 46.<br />
<br />
A sermon, ''The Interpretation of Masonry'', was preached by Rev. Bro. F. E. Ramsdell.<br />
<br />
After the church service the Lodge was escorted to the site of the first meeting place of Hope Lodge at the intersection of Elm and Pearl Streets, where a tablet was dedicated by the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Representatives of the Grand Lodge. The inscription on the tablet is as follows: <br />
<blockquote><br />
"Hope Lodge, A. F. & A. M. was here Instituted February 22, 1864 and Constituted March 9, 1865 <br><br />
Charles Heywood, W. M. Henry C. Hill, S. W. Edward J. Sawyer, J. W.<br><br />
Erected February 22, 1914 <br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Sunday afternoon the Lodge-rooms were opened for an informal reception to the members of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
Monday, February 23, a Special Communication of Hope Lodge was opened to continue the Anniversary program.<br />

===== MASONIC STEPS AT THE RESERVOIR =====<br />
<br />
October 20, 1914, the following motion was made in Hope Lodge:<br />
<blockquote><br />
That a committee be appointed to see the Water Commissioners of the Town of Gardner and the State Board of Health to ascertain if there would be any objection to the use of the top of the Gardner Reservoir by the public as a place to enjoy the exceptionally fine view which can be obtained from there.<br><br />
<br><br />
Also to get estimates on the cost of a flight of steps from the base to the top of the reservoir and to attend to any preliminaries incident to the construction and gift of these steps to the Town of Gardner by Hope Lodge.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
March 8, 1916, a duly appointed Committee consisting of Wor. Bro. Charles M. Edgell, Bro. Amasa B. Bryant, and Bro. Fred L. Butler made the official presentation.<br />
<br />
The Masonic years of 1919, 1920 and 1921 saw the greatest growth of Hope Lodge.<br />
<br />
In 1919 and 1920 there were held during the term of Worshipful Master Fordyce T. Reynolds, eleven regular, one annual and thirty-four special meetings. Sixty-eight candidates were balloted upon during the year. There were six meetings during one week. The Worshipful Master being ill, the work was carried on by Senior Warden George N. Archibald.<br />
<br />
===== HURRICANE OF 1938 =====<br />
<br />
On September 21, this section of New England was visited by a devastating tropical hurricane, and the Lodge quarters were seriously damaged. A portion of the roof of Syndicate Block was blown off exposing the interior to the fury of the elements. The Installation of Officers was slated for the following night.<br />
<br />
On the evening of September 22, as the electrical power had been put out of commission, the Lodge Room was lighted by candles. The Worshipful Master announced that due to conditions of travel, Wor. Roy Perry Miles, Grand Lecturer, who was to have installed the officers was unable to be present. As a result Right Worshipful Harold F. Brown, District Deputy Grand Master, would officiate. He was presented to the East and with Wor. James W. H. Baker as Marshal, and Rev. Brother Mont Thornbury as Chaplain, proceeded with the Installation.<br />
<br />
===== SEVENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY =====<br />
<br />
A Special Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts was held in the City of Gardner on Thursday, the 16th day of February 1939 for the purpose of celebrating the Seventy-fifth anniversary of Hope Lodge, under the direction of Most Worshipful Joseph Earl Perry and his suite.<br />
<br />
The Grand Lodge was opened in Ample Form in a convenient apartment in the First Congregational Church at five minutes before eight o'clock, in the evening, and proceeded under suitable escort to the main audience room of the Church, where Hope Lodge was at labor with the Presiding Master, Wor. Robert M. Crouch, in the East. After the Grand Officers had been received, the Worshipful Master surrendered the Oriental Chair and the gavel to the Grand Master, who presided during the exercises.<br />
<br />
A history of Hope Lodge was presented by Right Worshipful Fordyce T. Reynolds. The Grand Master made an interesting and inspiring address. Brief remarks were made by all the Grand Officers present.<br />
<br />
The very successful observances were concluded by a ball given at the City Hall.<br />
<br />
===== HOPE LODGE BRINGS THE MOUNTIES TO GARDNER =====<br />
<br />
Whenever and wherever the history of Hope Lodge is reviewed, one event will stand out as a distinct highlight — the visit of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Degree Team of Ottawa, Canada, on April 24, 25, and 26, 1954. To the members of the Committee and the Lodge Officers of 1953 who played a part in the ceremonies, and who came into close comradeship with these brothers from our good neighbor to the North have been planted deep and warm memories that can never be forgotten.<br />
<br />
Churches offered their services to put on suppers as well as Jessamine Chapter O.E.S. Help and cooperation were offered from all sides, not only from the Craft but everyone in the community. The assistance of our Gardner citizens in this undertaking was a wonderful exemplification of good fellowship.<br />
Three thousand six hundred Masons came into Gardner from all parts of New England, New York and New Jersey. The visitors came quietly, without fuss or noise, witnessed the Exemplification and as quietly departed without any kind of incident. This is a credit to everyone who attended.<br />
Special groups who attended were Nortons of Worcester, General Electric of Fitchburg and Lynn, and the Harvard Square and Compass Club.<br />
<br />
Comments from visiting Brethren complimented the handling of the crowds and how everything was on schedule. Particular mention was made of the prompt and efficient service at the doors. At each of the three Exemplifications 1200 Masons were completely identified, examined and seated in less than thirty minutes.<br />
<br />
The Mounties exemplified the Canadian ritual with all of their snap, color and military precision, holding the rapt attention of the brethren. It was a most impressive presentation. I am sure that no brethren of Hope Lodge will ever hear the strains of the Colonel Bogey March without seeing once again those Red Coats come swinging down the aisle.<br />
<br />
The Testimonial Banquet, Saturday noon, April 25, was highlighted by the presence of Brother and Lieut. Governor Sumner G. Whittier. Also present from the Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts were: Deputy Grand Master, Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEDillenback Dillenback]; District Deputy Grand Master, Right Worshipful Arthur E. Williams; Grand Secretary, Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLETaylor Earl W. Taylor]; and Worshipful Chester Shepherd, Director of Service.<br />
<br />
Saturday night at the close of the final exemplification Worshipful Brother Peter Adams presented to Worshipful Master Lloyd Steeves three gavels emblazoned with the Mounties' crest. These have been given an honored place in Hope Lodge.<br />
<br />
The visit of the Mounties was not only a highlight in the history of Hope Lodge but it adds a new stone to our International Temple of Masonry and helps to cement firmly that spirit of Brotherly Love and affection so essential to all liberty loving people.<br />
<br />
Thus was born the Gardner Masonic Charity and Educational Society, Inc., an organization to better carry out the Charitable and Educational purposes of Masonry and to construct or secure a new Temple.<br />
<br />
Thus in the ninetieth year of the history of Hope Lodge the brethren dedicated themselves to the building of a new Temple of Masonry in Gardner.<br />
On June 5, 19S4, the Grand Master of Masons for Massachusetts, Whitfield W. Johnson, accompanied by a distinguished suite of grand officers from all over New England, was escorted to the new temple site by the Aleppo Temple Shrine Band of Boston and in an impressive and appropriate manner proceeded to lay the corner-stone according to the ancient rites and usages of Masonry.<br />
<br />
The ground breaking ceremony took place November 18, 1954.<br />
<br />
===== THE DEDICATION OF THE NEW TEMPLE =====<br />
<br />
Back in 1953 the brethren of Hope Lodge had made a resolution: "We are going to do it." On Saturday, October 1, 1955, they were able to say: "We have done it."<br />
<br />
At one-thirty on that date the Worshipful Master, Hervey F. Bowden, announced that this meeting was called for the purpose of receiving the Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWJohnson Grand Master] of Masons of Massachusetts, who would be present with Grand Lodge officers to dedicate our New Masonic Temple.<br />
<br />
In a solemn and dignified ceremony resplendent with all of the ritualistic traditions of the Order, the Grand Master and suite dedicated the new Temple to Masonic usage. The drama was an inspiration and revelation to all present.<br />
<br />
During the last eight years, installed in its new Temple, Gardner Masonry has grown and prospered. All the bodies have cooperated splendidly in reducing the financial obligation and strengthening the Order. Real progress has been made.<br />
<br />
A highlight of this period was a second visit of the R. C. M. P. Degree team from Ottawa, May 6-7-8, 1960.<br />
<br />
Hope Lodge had received a most cordial invitation to return the visit of the R. C. M. P. degree team in Ottawa.<br />
<br />
Plans and arrangements were accordingly made and in June 1963, thirty-nine brethren made the trip to Ottawa by bus and truly received a royal reception. On Saturday evening Hope Lodge exemplified the third degree in [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Dalhousie Dalhousie] Lodge to a large and most receptive group of Canadian brethren.<br />
<br />
It is interesting to note that our new Lodge seating was manufactured by Heywood-Wakefield Co., as were the original chairs and settees manufactured by the Heywood Chair Mfg. Co. in 1865.<br />
<br />
We have now reached the Centennial year, 1864-1964, one hundred years of Masonic service in Gardner. Let us consider this year not merely one of celebration but one of dedication to the ideals and principles for which this great Fraternity stands. A feature of the ancient Greek games was the relay race in which the runner at the end of his lap handed on a lighted torch to his successor. This is a parable and a symbol of the ever-renewing life of our Order's leadership. The torch of Masonry was kindled at the sacred altar of Service to Humanity. Let it be the pledge of all of us present and future to bear it high.<br />
<br />
==== 150TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORICAL ADDRESS, SEPTEMBER 2013 ====<br />
<br />
''Special Communication of eight lodges November 16th, 2013, Celebrating their 150th Anniversary''<br><br />
'' Wor. Daniel E. Madru''<br />
<br />
We will start off with a very brief overlook of the mid 1800’s of the Gardner area and the immediate surrounding towns such as Winchendon and Templeton; each town had a population of around 2400 to 2800 people. The closest lodges back then were in Fitchburg, Athol and Barre, all being about 16 to 18 miles away. As you are all aware, the automobile was not put into production until the early 1900’s so I am sure the major source of transportation for individuals was the horse and buggy making the trip to a lodge meeting about 2 to 2.5 hours one way.<br />
<br />
Somewhere in Late 1863 or early 1864 (I have not been able to find the actual evidence of the original letter) a group of local Masons in the Gardner area got together and<br />
created a petition asking Grand Lodge to start a Masonic Lodge in Gardner. It was signed by: Levi Heywood, Horace Whitney, Henry Hill, Edward Sawyer, James Lakin, George Nichols, Andrew Moore, Charles Heywood, George Woodman, and Nathaniel Holmes. All these men had been made Masons in Fitchburg, Athol and elsewhere around the area, and all they were asking was to form a lodge closer to their home. This petition was also supported by the other lodges in Fitchburg and Athol.<br />
<br />
A short time afterward, a letter arrived and was from The Grand Master at the time, M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], and he issued a letter of dispensation on February 22, 1864, “authorizing and empowering the aforesaid brothers to form and open a lodge after the manner of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons and therein to admit and make Free Masons according to the ancient customs and not otherwise”. This dispensation was allowed to continue until the next regular communication of Grand Lodge in the month of March, 1865. March 9th, 1865 was when Hope Lodge was formally constituted and received its official Charter.<br />
<br />
Most of the petitioners were made officers of the newly formed lodge. Of the first three names, Levi Heywood was Master, Henry C. Hill was S. W. and Edward J. Sawyer as J. W. (also they became the first three past masters as well).<br />
<br />
The very first regular communication as Hope Lodge was held on March 22, 1864 in Freemason’s Hall, in rooms over the horse’s shed that was part of the town's central store owned by Abel S. Wood. Forty-six meetings were held in 1864 and six in 1865.<br />
<br />
The first official visitation by Grand Lodge was held December 6, 1864. The Most Worshipful William Parkman and his suite made the trip. On that occasion, the lodge exemplified the work of the third degree on Bro. Albert Lovejoy. M. W. Parkman was most impressed with the lodge's work that evening as was written in his Grand Master’s report soon after his trip.<br />
<br />
So that was the first year for Hope lodge, I will now hit some of the highlight for the next 149.<br />
<br />
Hope lodge has had a total of 4 homes in Gardner<br />
# Abel Wood's Store - Freemasons’ Hall from the 1st year to 1865<br />
# Rooms in the Town Hall for 32 years to Feb. 1897<br />
# Top floor of the new “Syndicate Building” as it was named for 58 years<br />
# Where they are now, what is known as Hope Lodge since 1955 for the last 58 years.<br />
<br />
The building and grounds are now owned, operated and run by the Gardner Masonic Charity & Educational Society and is funded by the most generous donations of our forefathers. They have also established a scholarship program for our children.<br />
<br />
'''50th Year Anniversary'''<br />
<br />
As we all know, the Henry Price Medal was named after our [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrice first Grand Master] and is awarded by Grand Lodge. It was first created in 1888 so that members could purchase and wear it.<br />
<br />
In 1914, M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Melvin Johnson], Grand Master, found the box of medals and decided to use them for presentation to distinguished brothers.<br />
<br />
At a special communication for the purpose of celebrating Hope Lodge’s 50th anniversary, he requested that Brother George Nichols be presented before him. M. W. Johnson then congratulated him for being the only living signing Charter member of Hope Lodge and thus, the very first Henry Price medal presented by a Grand Master went to Brother George Nichols on February 23, 1914 at Hope Lodge.<br />
<br />
The busiest year for Hope Lodge was 1919-1920. They had 11 regular meetings, 1 annual meeting, and 34 special meetings that Masonic year. 68 candidates were balloted upon. It was written that on some occasions, they held 6 meetings one week.<br />
<br />
In 1954 at its 90th Anniversary, Hope Lodge brought the Mounties to Gardner. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police Degree Team of Ottawa, Canada on April 24, 25, and 26, 1954 paid a very special and memorial visit to our lodge and community and exemplified the third degree on the 3 special days. Churches and Jessamine Chapter, OES offered their services to put on suppers. Help was offered from all sides, not only from the craft, but everyone in the community. Three thousand six hundred Masons came into Gardner from all parts of New England, New York, and New Jersey. The visitors came quietly, without fuss or noise; witnessed the Exemplification and quietly departed without any kind of incident.<br />
<br />
At its peak Hope lodge had a membership of around 600, today we are at around 180 and growing. We support to charities, the Masonic Angel Fund as well as our own local charity to support children and distressed worthy brothers, widows, and orphans.<br />
<br />
Today our building supports a total of six organizations, Hope Lodge, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StPaulA St. Paul] Lodge, OES, Shrine Club, Rainbow and DeMolay Chapters.<br />

'''HOPE LODGE, GARDNER.''' This new Lodge was duly Constituted, under its Charter, on the afternoon of Wednesday, the 3d of May last, by a delegation of the officers of the Grand Lodge. The ceremonies took place in the new Hall, which the Lodge, since the expiration of its Dispensation in March, has fitted up for its accommodation. There were about sixty Brethren present, including visitors from the neighboring towns. At the conclusion of this ceremony, the Lodge took a recess until the evening, when the ladies and invited guests were admitted, and the new Hall was Dedicated in accordance with the ancient customs of the Craft. The company then repaired to the Town Hall, where, in the presence of more than two hundred of the ladies and gehtlemen of the village, the officers of the new Lodge were Installed by the M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master], with the usual ceremonies, interspersed with appropriate music. An able and appropriate address by the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master] followed, and was listened to by the large audience present with apparent interest and satisfaction. At the conclusion of which he stated that he had been commissioned by Brother Edward Maynz of this city to present, in his behalf (he being necessarily absent), the new Lodge with a large quarto and beautifully-bound ''Alta-Bible'': which duty he performed in a very graceful and appropriate manner. The ''Gift'' was received by the Chaplain of the Lodge, the Rev. Wm. D. Herrick, in suitable terms, and placed upon the altar. Singing by the choir concluded the ceremonies.<br />
<br />
We took occasion some time since to speak of this Lodge as one of the best and most perfect in its work, in this jurisdiction; and we have now the great satisfaction of adding, that its new Hall is one of the most beautiful in the Commonwealth, alike in its conveniences, decorations, and furniture. No expense has been spared in fitting it up, and good taste is everywhere manifest in its appointments. It is located in the upper story of the Town Hall building (which is itself an ornament to the village), and is about 55 by 35 feet, exclusive of ante-rooms, of which there are four. The main hall is finely frescoed and appropriately ornamented, and handsomely carpeted; as are all the rooms. The furniture, including the altar, pedestals (representing the three orders of architecture), the chairs and settees, we believe were all made by the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heywood-Wakefield_furniture Heywood Chair Manufacturing Company], of Gardner, expressly for the Lodge, and do great credit, in the excellence of their workmanship, to the skill and good taste of that popular establishment.<br />
<br />
The officers of the new Lodge are as follows:-<br />
* Charles Heywood, W. M.<br />
* Henry C. Hill, S. W.<br />
* Edward J. Sawyer, J. W.<br />
* Alonzo B. Clark, Treas.<br />

==== VISIT, APRIL 1882 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. VI, No. 2, May 1882, Page 63:''<br />
<br />
The members of Hope Lodge, F. and A. M., of Gardner, visited [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Artisan Artisan] Lodge of Winchendon, Tuesday evening. April 25th. The occasion was the conferring of the degree of Master Mason upon Mr. Joseph C. Nichols, Conductor of the B. B. & G. R. R. Having formerly lived in Gardner, his old friends of the mystic tie, to the number of fifty or more, made this the time to return the friendly visit of Artisan Lodge, made some time ago. It was a very social meeting, made doubly so, from the fact that quite a number of the members of Hope Lodge are also members of North Star Royal Arch Chapter of Winchendon. <br />

''American House, Winchendon''<br />
</p><br />
<br />
After the business of the evening, speeches and the exchange of friendly greetings, by W. Bro. A. S. Lamb, Master of Artisan Lodge, and W. C. N. Edgell, Master of Hope Lodge, the brethren were invited by Bro. Lamb to a supper that was awaiting them at the American House. Nearly one hundred participated, after which the brethren of Hope Lodge returned home by special train, of which Bro. Nichols was conductor. These gatherings seem to unite the brethren in good will and kindly offices toward one another, cheering them on over the rough and rugged pathway of life. ''— Gardner Record.''<br />

''From Proceedings, Page 1940-296:''<br />
<br />
''By R. W. Louis K. Cross:''<br />
<br />
<blockquote><br />
"A Lodge is a certain number of Masons duly assembled, legally constituted, having the Holy Bible, Square and Compasses, with a Charter or Warrant, empowering them to work."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Soon after the close of the Civil War a certain number of Masons residing in Winchendon did assemble and decided to petition the Grand Lodge for authorization to work. The result was the following petition:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of Massachusetts.<br><br />
<br><br />
"The undersigned petitioners, being Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, having the prosperity of the Fraternity at heart, and willing to exert their best endeavors to promote and diffuse the genuine principles of Masonry respectfully represent:<br><br />
<br><br />
"That for the convenience of their respective dwellings, and for other good reasons, they are desirous of forming a new Lodge, in the Town of Winchendon, to be named Artisan Lodge. They therefore pray for letters of Dispensation, or Warrant of Constitution, to empower them to assemble as a legal Lodge, to discharge the duties of Masonry in a regular and constitutional manner, according to the original forms of the order, and the regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
"They have nominated and do recommend Brother John G. Folsom to be the first Master, Brother Francis W. White to be the first Senior Warden, and Brother Wilder P. Clark to be the first Junior Warden of said Lodge. If the prayer of the petition shall be granted, they promise a strict conformity to all the Constitutions, Laws and Regulations of the Grand Lodge."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Signers were: Joel Parker, Loring Chase, William C. Nichols, Francis W. White, George O. Hubbard, Wilder P. Clark, L. J. Wilkinson, Charles H. Ingalls, Edwin Sawtelle, Joseph C. Long, Aloric A. Boyce, Harry Pitkin, Alvah Godding, Williain Y. Stanley, Daniel Harvey, George W. Chandler, Charles E. Lake, W. H. Coffin, K. S. Porter, D. F: Hall, John G. Folsom, A. A. Ballou, W. N. White, Arthur Boucher, Harvey Wyman, Herman Daniels, Stephen Fitts, Dan C. Robinson and C. F. Bemis.<br />
<br />
The above 29 signers were recommended to the Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master] by the Master and Wardens of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Hope Hope] Lodge of Gardner, as Master Masons in good standing; also their Petition was countersigned and approved by the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWSalmon D.D.G.M.] for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MADISTRICT3_1849-66 3rd Masonic District]. Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman] then granted a Dispensation, <br />
<blockquote><br />
"empowering the signers to form and open a Lodge, and to admit and make Freemasons, according to the ancient customs, and not otherwise. This Dispensation to continue in full force from date of issue until the regular, quarterly communication of the Grand Lodge in the month of September, 1866, unless sooner revoked. <br><br />
Signed Sept. 1, 1865.<br><br />
William Parkman, Grand Master.<br><br />
Attest: Charles W. Moore, Grand Secretary."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Quarters were secured in the Baptist Church, the loft I am told, and the first meeting held September 8, 1865. The first organization under dispensation was as follows: <br />
* W. M. John G. Folsom<br />
* S. W. Francis W. White<br />
* J. W. Wilder P. Clark<br />
* Treasurer W. N. White<br />
* Secretary A. A. Ballou<br />
* S.D., L. J. Wilkenson<br />
* J.D., C. E. Lake<br />
* S.S., G. O. Hubbard<br />
* J.S., Daniel Harvey<br />
* Marshal, D. F. Hall<br />
* Chaplain Harvey Wyman<br />
* Tyler Edwin Sawtelle<br />
At this meeting three Brothers were appointed to act as Committee on By-laws. It was voted to hold regular meetings Friday evening on or before the full moon, at 7 P.M. from September to April, 7:30 April to September.<br />
<br />
After this first meeting it must have been a very busy year, for up to and including the 1st of September, 1866, there is a record of no fewer than forty-eight meetings, nearly one each week. Finances appeared to be the great topic of discussion, and means were devised to raise funds to carry on the work and pay bills. Degree fees of $40.00 were voted, and several petitions were received during this first year. August 25, 1866, By-laws were adopted, patterned largely after those of Aurora Lodge of Fitchburg, after which the committee was discharged.<br />
<br />
January 26, 1866, a Holy Bible was presented for the Altar by Mr. Nelson D. White. Mr. White was given a vote of thanks by the Lodge, and it was also voted to have the Bible suitably inscribed.<br />
<br />
On September 12, 1866, a Charter was granted to Artisan Lodge, signed by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame], Grand Master with the following sixteen Charter members' Joel Parker, Harvey Wyman, William Y. Stanley, John G. Folsom, D. F. Hall, Geo. O. Hubbard, Hary Pitkin, Loring Chase, Francis W. White, W. P. Clark, Edwin Sawtelle, L. J. Wilkenson, Charles E. Lake, A. A. Ballou, W. N.White and Daniel Harvey. John G. Folsom was elected the first Master and on October 19, 1866, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame] and suite consecrated the new Masonic Hall and installed the officers.<br />
<br />
Artisan Lodge continued to hold its meetings in the Baptist church for neaily two years, to Decembet 1867, as the last recorded rent bill for those quarters was approved and ordered paid in March 1868, when a ten year lease of quarters on the top floor of the First National Bank building was signed. It is interesting to note in the records that a bill, in addition to rental, of $19.00 for warming for six months, to July 1, 1868, caused so much discussion that a committee was appointed by the Worshipful Master to consult with the bank concerning it.<br />
<br />
Regular meetings were'held monthly in the new Lodge-rooms in the bank building until September 20, 1921, when the present Lodge-rooms were first occupied at a special meeting held for the official visit of the D.D.G.M.<br />
<br />
Regular meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month with the exception of July and August, when the Lodge recesses. Meeting dates have been changed a number of times during the 75 years of the Lodge's existence. The October meeting is the annual meeting.<br />
<br />
October 17, 1916, Artisan Lodge observed the 50th year of its existence by appropriate exercises in the Town Hall. The feature of this observation was the official visit by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Melvin M. Johnson], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and suite. The addresses of note were given by the Grand Master, M. W. Melvin M. Johnson; by the Grand Secretary, R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFHamilton Frederick W. Hamilton], and the Historical address by Wor. Charles D. Young.<br />
<br />
April 23, 1869, a Past Master's Jewel was presented Worshipful John G. Folsom. At his death this was presented to Artisan Lodge with the request that it be presented to the presiding Master at the Lodge Centennial. There have been 42 presiding Masters of.Artisan Lodge and at present 16 are living and members.<br />
<br />
During this 75 year period nearly 400 have received the degrees as conferred by Artisan Lodge, and at the present time 144 are enrolled as members. This membership has naturally varied according to periods of prosperity or depression. At its peak Artisan Lodge had a membership of 169, and like all Masonic bodies, this includes representative men from all walks of life.<br />
<br />

<br />
This in a brief manner brings to your attention some of the interesting details of the growth and development of Artisan Lodge. Of necessity it is largely statistical and no attempt can be made to go into any detail regarding events of interest only to Artisan Lodge.<br />
<br />
May Artisan Lodge continue to prosper and hold its prominent place in the Town of Winchendon is the message of Louis K. Cross, Historian.<br />

==== TEMPLE REDEDICATION, 1980 ====<br />
<br />
'''HISTORY OF ARTISAN LODGE, A. F. & A. M.'''<br />
<br />
On Thursday evening, December 1, 1864, thirteen Masons assembled in the hall of the Winchendon Baptist Church to lay the ground work for Masonry in Winchendon. From amongst them, they chose John G, Folsom and Alphonse A. Ballou as Moderator and Secretary-Treasurer, respectively, and voted to hold weekly meetings for the purpose of lecturing and offering instruction in Masonry, Two weeks later, on December 15th, they named their organization the ''Winchendon Masonic Association'', and set annual donations at one dollar. Thus began the first active Masonic organization in the Town of Winchendon, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
These thirteen Brethren, duly recognized afterward by the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts as the Founding Brothers of Artisan Lodge (September 12, 1866), included Brothers Alphonse A. Ballou, George W. Chandler, Loring Chase, Cpwdry, John G. Folsom, D, F. Hall, Daniel Harvey, George 0. Hubbard, Charles E. Lake, William C. Nichols, Edwin Sawtelle, L. J. Wilkinson and Harry Wyman. Lodge records indicate they met together weekly, often receiving instruction from Brethren visiting from Lodges in Gardner, Fitchburg, Groton and other nearby communities. At their March 25, 1865, meeting they approved a motion to raise $500.00 to be used to defray costs of establishing a regular Masonic Lodge in Winchendon, Two-thirds of that sura was pledged that evening. It was also agreed that the Winchendon Masonic Association would rent the Baptist Church Hall for one year under what must have been very liberal terms; for, records from the next several meetings detail substantial renovations on "Mason's Hall," as it soon came to be called. The name "Artisan Lodge" was approved<br />
unanimously on March 30, 1865, although it appears six members abstained and later tried to have the name changed.<br />
<br />
At the meetings of April 3rd and 8th, 1865, the first slate of<br />
officers of Artisan Lodge were duly nominated and elected as follows:<br />
* MASTER: John G. Folsom<br />
* SENIOR WARDEN: Francis V. White<br />
* JUNIOR WARDEN: Wilder P. Clark<br />
* TREASURER: W. N. White<br />
* SECRETARY: Alphonse A. Ballou<br />
* SENIOR DEACON: L. J. Wilkinson<br />
* JUNIOR DEACON: Alarie A. Boyce<br />
* MARSHAL: Edwin Sawtelle<br />
* TYLER: David Harvey<br />
Ten days later, the newly-elected officers worked the First Degree on William H. Coffin, the first candidate for membership to Artisan Lodge.<br />
<br />
In the ensuing months, a committee chaired by Brother D. F. Hall conducted communications with the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts for the purpose of securing a charter. Their work resulted in a formal petitior which was presented to the Most Worshipful William Parkman, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, on September 1, 1865. The petition read as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of Massachusetts.<br><br />
<br><br />
The undersigned petitioners, being Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, having the prosperity of the Fraternity at heart, and willing to exert their best endeavors to promote and diffuse the general principles of Masonry, respectfully represent:<br><br />
<br><br />
That for the convenience of their respective dwellings, and for other good reasons, they are desirous of forming a new Lodge, in the Town of Winchendon, to be named Artisan Lodge. They therefore-pray for letters of Dispensation, or Warrant of Constitution, to empower them to assemble as a legal Lodge, to discharge the duties of Masonry in a regular and constitutional manner, according to the original forums of the order, and the regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
They have nominated, and do recommend, Brother John G, Polsom to be the first Master, Brother Francis W. White to be the first Senior Warden, and Brother Wilder P. Clark to be the first Junior Warden of said Lodge. If the prayer of the petition shall be granted, they promise a strict conformity to all the constitutions, laws and regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Interest in Artisan Lodge had grown substantially in the preceding months as attested by the addition of nineteen names, to the previous thirteen, listed on the petition above and which follow: Joel Parker, Sonig Case, Charles H. Rugalls, Joseph C. Long, Alarie A. Boyce, Harry Pitkin, Alvah Godding, William J. Stanley, W. H. Coffin, K. S. Porter, F. W. White, Arthur Boucher, W. N. White, Herman Daniels, Stephen Fitts, C. F. Bemis, Dan C. Robinson, Wilder P. Clark and S. J. Wilkinson.<br />
<br />
A Dispensation was approved and granted by M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Parkman] to be in effect until the next regular communication of Grand Lodge in September 1866.<br><br />
<br />
The ''By-Laws'' were accepted by the Lodge on September 29, 1865. Dues were continued at one dollar per annum although special assessments of up to $10.00 per member were voted at various times to meet particular needs. The fee for the degrees was set at $40.00 and the regular monthly meeting established for the Friday evening on or before the full moon; the annual meeting was declared to be in October. On February 23, 1866, Mr. Nelson D. White presented the Lodge Its first Bible which was in continuous use until the spring of 1980 when R. W. Celian H. Abbott presented the lovely Bible, square and compasses which adorn the altar today.<br />
<br />
No fewer than forty-eight meetings were held under the granted Dispensation. When Grand Lodge reconvened on September 12, 1866, a regular Charter was granted Artisan Lodge by M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame]. One month later (October 19, 1866), M. W. Dame and his suite dedicatee the Masonic Hall and formally installed the duly elected officers of Artisan Lodge.<br />
<br />
Meetings were held in the Baptist Church until January 25, 1867, when newer and more spacious rooms were acquired in the First National Bank building. These facilities were utilized until 1921 when, on September 20th, new rooms were secured in the former Bart Block, a building on Central Street just then purchased by Artisan Realty, Inc.<br />
<br />
The decade beginning in 1920 saw the most vigorous growth in the history of the Lodge. Annual returns show an increase of sixty-three members by the end of 1930, achieving the highest number of members (169) in the history of the Lodge. Depression and war in the ensuing years reversed this pattern of growth until membership stabilized in the early 1950's. The past two years have been, in at least two respects, the most successful in Lodge history. Men have sought admission into Masonry through Artisan Lodge in almost unprecedented numbers (only in the year 1919 did the Lodge gain more members (23) than in 1980). More significantly, and the reason we have come together tonight, Artisan Lodge designed, built and now occupies its own Masonic facilities.<br />
<br />
Incorporation papers were taken out in May 1976 (approved March 2, 1978), for the establishment of the Winchendon Masonic Charitable and Educational Society. The first meeting of the Incorporators was held on March 14, 1978, with all subscribers present. R. W. Raymond J. McLean was elected Chairman and Wor. John A. Davis, Clerk. The primary purpose for which the corporation was formed was to accept the very generous gift by Brother Edwin H. Merrill of ten acres of land upon which to erect a suitable building to serve as a Masonic Temple in the Town of Winchendon. In addition to the aforementioned, incorporators included Duncan H. Burns, Duncan H. Burns, Jr., Henry L. Doody, Ernest. P. Fletcher, Jr., Richard A. Godfrey, Edward M. King, F. Richard Ladeau, William P. Lawrence, Bruce C, Lemire, Arthur E. Marsh, Raymond J. McConnell, Edwin H. Merrill, Kenneth L. Norcross, Sherman S. Paris, Ottmar Rau, Frank J. Rota, Burton K. Sawtelle, John A. Squitiero and Francis Wing.<br />
In March 1979 Brother Duncan H. Burns was elected President of the Board of Trustees of the corporation. Brothers J. Albert Gauthier and Richard A. Godfrey were selected as Secretary-Clerk and Treasurer respectively. Worshipful Ottmar Rau, Wor. Burton Sawtelle and Bro. J. Thomas Engle were appointed as a committee to raise funds for the erection of the new Temple. Under the leadership of Brother Burns, and through the generosity and help of many - members, wives, family and friends alike, the Temple in which we sit this evening was raised.<br />
<br />
Formal groundbreaking exercises were held on June 11, 1979, with M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMelanson Arthur H. Melanson], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts presiding. Under the guiding hands of Wor. Frank J. Rota, the building rose rapidly. The foundation walls were poured on June 6, 1979; main support beam, joists and flooring completed on July 8th; exterior and interior walls were framed by July 16th; and the roof completed by August 20th. Landscaping and interior work on the main floor was just as rapidly completed in time for the installation of officers on September 15, 1980. More significant than the rapidity with which the Temple was completed, is that it was all done without the benefit of a mortgage. This magnificent edifice is representative of the highest honor we can bestow upon those who contributed so generously of their time, their labor and their love for Free Masonry.<br />
The organization of officers for 1979-1980 is as follows:<br />
* MASTER: Wor. Ottmar Rau<br />
* SENIOR WARDEN: Martin D. Leonard<br />
* JUNIOR WARDEN: J. Thomas Engle<br />
* TREASURER: R. W. Wesley R. Boutelle<br />
* SECRETARY: J. Albert Gauthier<br />
* CHAPLAIN: Wor. Frank J. Rota<br />
* MARSHAL: R. W. Burton K. Sawtelle<br />
* SENIOR DEACON: John F. Thayer<br />
* JUNIOR DEACON: Morris A. Gibbons, III<br />
* SENIOR STEWARD: Russell A. Milliken<br />
* JUNIOR STEWARD: Mitchell R. Grosky<br />
* ORGANIST: Raymond E. Clement<br />
* INSIDE SENTINEL: Christopher M. Hand<br />
* TYLER: Raymond McConnell<br />
* RITUALIST: R. W. Raymond J. McLean<br />
<br />
The organization of the Board of Trustees of the WInchendon Masonic Charitable and Educational Society, Inc. for 1979-1980 includes the following officers:<br />
* PRESIDENT: J. Thomas Engle<br />
* VICE-PRESIDENT: Warren A. Harris<br />
* SECRETARY: Raymond McConnell<br />
* TREASURER: Arnold E. Anderson<br />
and Trustees Celian H. Abbott, Duncan H. Burns, Jr., J. Albert Gauthier, Morris A, Gibbons, III, Arthur A. Marsh, Burton K. Sawtelle, Edwin H. Merrill - Honorary and Ottmar Rau, ''ex officio''.<br />
<br />
The Brothers of Artisan Lodge are deeply gratified to have M. W. Arthur H. Melanson, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts and his suite join us in the dedication of our new Temple on this 19th day of September 1980. This auspicious occasion will lay the groundwork for another 115 years of prosperity for Masonry in the Town of Winchendon, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
Respectfully submitted, <br />
* R. W. Celian H. Abbott <br />
* Bro. Arnold E. Anderson<br />

<br />
In the evening, the officers and members of the new Lodge, with their wives and guests, sat down to an elegantly spread supper at the American Hotel, and had a most enjoyable time up to the hour of 11 o'clock. At the conclusion of the feast, speeches were made by Grand Master Dame, R. W. Brs. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GSCWMoore C. W.

Murdock, and others, the Master of Artisan Lodge, Br. Folsom, presiding. The speaking during the evening was uncommonly excellent, and commanded that close attention of the company, so that for more than two hours not a person left the room.<br />
<br />
==== HALL REDEDICATION, APRIL 1883 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. VII, No. 1, April 1883, Page 32:''<br />
<br />
The members of Artisan Lodge, with their wives and invited guests, held a sociable in Masonic Hall, on Monday evening, April 16th. The occasion was a re-dedication of the hall, which the brethren have taken a great deal of pains in re-furnishing. The additions made are, six settees, two on each side, and two on the west end of the hall, twelve officers' and three principal cliairs, an altar and three pedestals. The furniture is all of black walnut, of elegant design, and nicely upholstered in terry. The top of the altar is upholstered in the same, and the top of the pedestals are covered with a nice marble slab. The top of the altar opens with hinges like a trunk, and the inside forms a receptacle for the three Great Lights, Gavels, Batons, etc. There will also be added a cabinet desk for the Secretary, made of black walnut, to match the other fixtures. The brethren of the lodge were heartily congratulated by the M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Grand Master] for their zeal and successful efforts in refitting and furnishing their pleasant Masonic home.<br />

<br />
<blockquote><br />
"A Lodge is a certain number of Masons duly assembled, legally constituted, having the Holy Bible, Square and Compasses, with a Charter or Warrant, empowering them to work."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Soon after the close of the Civil War a certain number of Masons residing in Winchendon did assemble and decided to petition the Grand Lodge for authorization to work. The result was the following petition:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of Massachusetts.<br><br />
<br><br />
"The undersigned petitioners, being Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, having the prosperity of the Fraternity at heart, and willing to exert their best endeavors to promote and diffuse the genuine principles of Masonry respectfully represent:<br><br />
<br><br />
"That for the convenience of their respective dwellings, and for other good reasons, they are desirous of forming a new Lodge, in the Town of Winchendon, to be named Artisan Lodge. They therefore pray for letters of Dispensation, or Warrant of Constitution, to empower them to assemble as a legal Lodge, to discharge the duties of Masonry in a regular and constitutional manner, according to the original forms of the order, and the regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
"They have nominated and do recommend Brother John G. Folsom to be the first Master, Brother Francis W. White to be the first Senior Warden, and Brother Wilder P. Clark to be the first Junior Warden of said Lodge. If the prayer of the petition shall be granted, they promise a strict conformity to all the Constitutions, Laws and Regulations of the Grand Lodge."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Signers were: Joel Parker, Loring Chase, William C. Nichols, Francis W. White, George O. Hubbard, Wilder P. Clark, L. J. Wilkinson, Charles H. Ingalls, Edwin Sawtelle, Joseph C. Long, Aloric A. Boyce, Harry Pitkin, Alvah Godding, Williain Y. Stanley, Daniel Harvey, George W. Chandler, Charles E. Lake, W. H. Coffin, K. S. Porter, D. F: Hall, John G. Folsom, A. A. Ballou, W. N. White, Arthur Boucher, Harvey Wyman, Herman Daniels, Stephen Fitts, Dan C. Robinson and C. F. Bemis.<br />
<br />
The above 29 signers were recommended to the Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master] by the Master and Wardens of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Hope Hope] Lodge of Gardner, as Master Masons in good standing; also their Petition was countersigned and approved by the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWSalmon D.D.G.M.] for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MADISTRICT3_1849-66 3rd Masonic District]. Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman] then granted a Dispensation, <br />
<blockquote><br />
"empowering the signers to form and open a Lodge, and to admit and make Freemasons, according to the ancient customs, and not otherwise. This Dispensation to continue in full force from date of issue until the regular, quarterly communication of the Grand Lodge in the month of September, 1866, unless sooner revoked. <br><br />
Signed Sept. 1, 1865.<br><br />
William Parkman, Grand Master.<br><br />
Attest: Charles W. Moore, Grand Secretary."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Quarters were secured in the Baptist Church, the loft I am told, and the first meeting held September 8, 1865. The first organization under dispensation was as follows: <br />
* W. M. John G. Folsom<br />
* S. W. Francis W. White<br />
* J. W. Wilder P. Clark<br />
* Treasurer W. N. White<br />
* Secretary A. A. Ballou<br />
* S.D., L. J. Wilkenson<br />
* J.D., C. E. Lake<br />
* S.S., G. O. Hubbard<br />
* J.S., Daniel Harvey<br />
* Marshal, D. F. Hall<br />
* Chaplain Harvey Wyman<br />
* Tyler Edwin Sawtelle<br />
At this meeting three Brothers were appointed to act as Committee on By-laws. It was voted to hold regular meetings Friday evening on or before the full moon, at 7 P.M. from September to April, 7:30 April to September.<br />
<br />
After this first meeting it must have been a very busy year, for up to and including the 1st of September, 1866, there is a record of no fewer than forty-eight meetings, nearly one each week. Finances appeared to be the great topic of discussion, and means were devised to raise funds to carry on the work and pay bills. Degree fees of $40.00 were voted, and several petitions were received during this first year. August 25, 1866, By-laws were adopted, patterned largely after those of Aurora Lodge of Fitchburg, after which the committee was discharged.<br />
<br />
January 26, 1866, a Holy Bible was presented for the Altar by Mr. Nelson D. White. Mr. White was given a vote of thanks by the Lodge, and it was also voted to have the Bible suitably inscribed.<br />
<br />
On September 12, 1866, a Charter was granted to Artisan Lodge, signed by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame], Grand Master with the following sixteen Charter members' Joel Parker, Harvey Wyman, William Y. Stanley, John G. Folsom, D. F. Hall, Geo. O. Hubbard, Hary Pitkin, Loring Chase, Francis W. White, W. P. Clark, Edwin Sawtelle, L. J. Wilkenson, Charles E. Lake, A. A. Ballou, W. N.White and Daniel Harvey. John G. Folsom was elected the first Master and on October 19, 1866, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame] and suite consecrated the new Masonic Hall and installed the officers.<br />
<br />
Artisan Lodge continued to hold its meetings in the Baptist church for neaily two years, to Decembet 1867, as the last recorded rent bill for those quarters was approved and ordered paid in March 1868, when a ten year lease of quarters on the top floor of the First National Bank building was signed. It is interesting to note in the records that a bill, in addition to rental, of $19.00 for warming for six months, to July 1, 1868, caused so much discussion that a committee was appointed by the Worshipful Master to consult with the bank concerning it.<br />
<br />
Regular meetings were'held monthly in the new Lodge-rooms in the bank building until September 20, 1921, when the present Lodge-rooms were first occupied at a special meeting held for the official visit of the D.D.G.M.<br />
<br />
Regular meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month with the exception of July and August, when the Lodge recesses. Meeting dates have been changed a number of times during the 75 years of the Lodge's existence. The October meeting is the annual meeting.<br />
<br />
October 17, 1916, Artisan Lodge observed the 50th year of its existence by appropriate exercises in the Town Hall. The feature of this observation was the official visit by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Melvin M. Johnson], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and suite. The addresses of note were given by the Grand Master, M. W. Melvin M. Johnson; by the Grand Secretary, R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFHamilton Frederick W. Hamilton], and the Historical address by Wor. Charles D. Young.<br />
<br />
April 23, 1869, a Past Master's Jewel was presented Worshipful John G. Folsom. At his death this was presented to Artisan Lodge with the request that it be presented to the presiding Master at the Lodge Centennial. There have been 42 presiding Masters of.Artisan Lodge and at present 16 are living and members.<br />
<br />
During this 75 year period nearly 400 have received the degrees as conferred by Artisan Lodge, and at the present time 144 are enrolled as members. This membership has naturally varied according to periods of prosperity or depression. At its peak Artisan Lodge had a membership of 169, and like all Masonic bodies, this includes representative men from all walks of life.<br />

==== TEMPLE REDEDICATION, 1980 ====<br />
<br />
'''HISTORY OF ARTISAN LODGE, A. F. & A. M.'''<br />
<br />
On Thursday evening, December 1, 1864, thirteen Masons assembled in the hall of the Winchendon Baptist Church to lay the ground work for Masonry in Winchendon. From amongst them, they chose John G, Folsom and Alphonse A. Ballou as Moderator and Secretary-Treasurer, respectively, and voted to hold weekly meetings for the purpose of lecturing and offering instruction in Masonry, Two weeks later, on December 15th, they named their organization the ''Winchendon Masonic Association'', and set annual donations at one dollar. Thus began the first active Masonic organization in the Town of Winchendon, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
These thirteen Brethren, duly recognized afterward by the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts as the Founding Brothers of Artisan Lodge (September 12, 1866), included Brothers Alphonse A. Ballou, George W. Chandler, Loring Chase, Cpwdry, John G. Folsom, D, F. Hall, Daniel Harvey, George 0. Hubbard, Charles E. Lake, William C. Nichols, Edwin Sawtelle, L. J. Wilkinson and Harry Wyman. Lodge records indicate they met together weekly, often receiving instruction from Brethren visiting from Lodges in Gardner, Fitchburg, Groton and other nearby communities. At their March 25, 1865, meeting they approved a motion to raise $500.00 to be used to defray costs of establishing a regular Masonic Lodge in Winchendon, Two-thirds of that sura was pledged that evening. It was also agreed that the Winchendon Masonic Association would rent the Baptist Church Hall for one year under what must have been very liberal terms; for, records from the next several meetings detail substantial renovations on "Mason's Hall," as it soon came to be called. The name "Artisan Lodge" was approved<br />
unanimously on March 30, 1865, although it appears six members abstained and later tried to have the name changed.<br />
<br />
At the meetings of April 3rd and 8th, 1865, the first slate of<br />
officers of Artisan Lodge were duly nominated and elected as follows:<br />
* MASTER: John G. Folsom<br />
* SENIOR WARDEN: Francis V. White<br />
* JUNIOR WARDEN: Wilder P. Clark<br />
* TREASURER: W. N. White<br />
* SECRETARY: Alphonse A. Ballou<br />
* SENIOR DEACON: L. J. Wilkinson<br />
* JUNIOR DEACON: Alarie A. Boyce<br />
* MARSHAL: Edwin Sawtelle<br />
* TYLER: David Harvey<br />
Ten days later, the newly-elected officers worked the First Degree on William H. Coffin, the first candidate for membership to Artisan Lodge.<br />
<br />
In the ensuing months, a committee chaired by Brother D. F. Hall conducted communications with the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts for the purpose of securing a charter. Their work resulted in a formal petitior which was presented to the Most Worshipful William Parkman, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, on September 1, 1865. The petition read as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the State of Massachusetts.<br><br />
<br><br />
The undersigned petitioners, being Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, having the prosperity of the Fraternity at heart, and willing to exert their best endeavors to promote and diffuse the general principles of Masonry, respectfully represent:<br><br />
<br><br />
That for the convenience of their respective dwellings, and for other good reasons, they are desirous of forming a new Lodge, in the Town of Winchendon, to be named Artisan Lodge. They therefore-pray for letters of Dispensation, or Warrant of Constitution, to empower them to assemble as a legal Lodge, to discharge the duties of Masonry in a regular and constitutional manner, according to the original forums of the order, and the regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
<br><br />
They have nominated, and do recommend, Brother John G, Polsom to be the first Master, Brother Francis W. White to be the first Senior Warden, and Brother Wilder P. Clark to be the first Junior Warden of said Lodge. If the prayer of the petition shall be granted, they promise a strict conformity to all the constitutions, laws and regulations of the Grand Lodge.<br><br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Interest in Artisan Lodge had grown substantially in the preceding months as attested by the addition of nineteen names, to the previous thirteen, listed on the petition above and which follow: Joel Parker, Sonig Case, Charles H. Rugalls, Joseph C. Long, Alarie A. Boyce, Harry Pitkin, Alvah Godding, William J. Stanley, W. H. Coffin, K. S. Porter, F. W. White, Arthur Boucher, W. N. White, Herman Daniels, Stephen Fitts, C. F. Bemis, Dan C. Robinson, Wilder P. Clark and S. J. Wilkinson.<br />
<br />
A Dispensation was approved and granted by M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Parkman] to be in effect until the next regular communication of Grand Lodge in September 1866.<br><br />
<br />
The ''By-Laws'' were accepted by the Lodge on September 29, 1865. Dues were continued at one dollar per annum although special assessments of up to $10.00 per member were voted at various times to meet particular needs. The fee for the degrees was set at $40.00 and the regular monthly meeting established for the Friday evening on or before the full moon; the annual meeting was declared to be in October. On February 23, 1866, Mr. Nelson D. White presented the Lodge Its first Bible which was in continuous use until the spring of 1980 when R. W. Celian H. Abbott presented the lovely Bible, square and compasses which adorn the altar today.<br />
<br />
No fewer than forty-eight meetings were held under the granted Dispensation. When Grand Lodge reconvened on September 12, 1866, a regular Charter was granted Artisan Lodge by M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame]. One month later (October 19, 1866), M. W. Dame and his suite dedicatee the Masonic Hall and formally installed the duly elected officers of Artisan Lodge.<br />
<br />
Meetings were held in the Baptist Church until January 25, 1867, when newer and more spacious rooms were acquired in the First National Bank building. These facilities were utilized until 1921 when, on September 20th, new rooms were secured in the former Bart Block, a building on Central Street just then purchased by Artisan Realty, Inc.<br />
<br />
The decade beginning in 1920 saw the most vigorous growth in the history of the Lodge. Annual returns show an increase of sixty-three members by the end of 1930, achieving the highest number of members (169) in the history of the Lodge. Depression and war in the ensuing years reversed this pattern of growth until membership stabilized in the early 1950's. The past two years have been, in at least two respects, the most successful in Lodge history. Men have sought admission into Masonry through Artisan Lodge in almost unprecedented numbers (only in the year 1919 did the Lodge gain more members (23) than in 1980). More significantly, and the reason we have come together tonight, Artisan Lodge designed, built and now occupies its own Masonic facilities.<br />
<br />
Incorporation papers were taken out in May 1976 (approved March 2, 1978), for the establishment of the Winchendon Masonic Charitable and Educational Society. The first meeting of the Incorporators was held on March 14, 1978, with all subscribers present. R. W. Raymond J. McLean was elected Chairman and Wor. John A. Davis, Clerk. The primary purpose for which the corporation was formed was to accept the very generous gift by Brother Edwin H. Merrill of ten acres of land upon which to erect a suitable building to serve as a Masonic Temple in the Town of Winchendon. In addition to the aforementioned, incorporators included Duncan H. Burns, Duncan H. Burns, Jr., Henry L. Doody, Ernest. P. Fletcher, Jr., Richard A. Godfrey, Edward M. King, F. Richard Ladeau, William P. Lawrence, Bruce C, Lemire, Arthur E. Marsh, Raymond J. McConnell, Edwin H. Merrill, Kenneth L. Norcross, Sherman S. Paris, Ottmar Rau, Frank J. Rota, Burton K. Sawtelle, John A. Squitiero and Francis Wing.<br />
In March 1979 Brother Duncan H. Burns was elected President of the Board of Trustees of the corporation. Brothers J. Albert Gauthier and Richard A. Godfrey were selected as Secretary-Clerk and Treasurer respectively. Worshipful Ottmar Rau, Wor. Burton Sawtelle and Bro. J. Thomas Engle were appointed as a committee to raise funds for the erection of the new Temple. Under the leadership of Brother Burns, and through the generosity and help of many - members, wives, family and friends alike, the Temple in which we sit this evening was raised.<br />
<br />
Formal groundbreaking exercises were held on June 11, 1979, with M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMelanson Arthur H. Melanson], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts presiding. Under the guiding hands of Wor. Frank J. Rota, the building rose rapidly. The foundation walls were poured on June 6, 1979; main support beam, joists and flooring completed on July 8th; exterior and interior walls were framed by July 16th; and the roof completed by August 20th. Landscaping and interior work on the main floor was just as rapidly completed in time for the installation of officers on September 15, 1980. More significant than the rapidity with which the Temple was completed, is that it was all done without the benefit of a mortgage. This magnificent edifice is representative of the highest honor we can bestow upon those who contributed so generously of their time, their labor and their love for Free Masonry.<br />
The organization of officers for 1979-1980 is as follows:<br />
* MASTER: Wor. Ottmar Rau<br />
* SENIOR WARDEN: Martin D. Leonard<br />
* JUNIOR WARDEN: J. Thomas Engle<br />
* TREASURER: R. W. Wesley R. Boutelle<br />
* SECRETARY: J. Albert Gauthier<br />
* CHAPLAIN: Wor. Frank J. Rota<br />
* MARSHAL: R. W. Burton K. Sawtelle<br />
* SENIOR DEACON: John F. Thayer<br />
* JUNIOR DEACON: Morris A. Gibbons, III<br />
* SENIOR STEWARD: Russell A. Milliken<br />
* JUNIOR STEWARD: Mitchell R. Grosky<br />
* ORGANIST: Raymond E. Clement<br />
* INSIDE SENTINEL: Christopher M. Hand<br />
* TYLER: Raymond McConnell<br />
* RITUALIST: R. W. Raymond J. McLean<br />
<br />
The organization of the Board of Trustees of the WInchendon Masonic Charitable and Educational Society, Inc. for 1979-1980 includes the following officers:<br />
* PRESIDENT: J. Thomas Engle<br />
* VICE-PRESIDENT: Warren A. Harris<br />
* SECRETARY: Raymond McConnell<br />
* TREASURER: Arnold E. Anderson<br />
and Trustees Celian H. Abbott, Duncan H. Burns, Jr., J. Albert Gauthier, Morris A, Gibbons, III, Arthur A. Marsh, Burton K. Sawtelle, Edwin H. Merrill - Honorary and Ottmar Rau, ''ex officio''.<br />
<br />
The Brothers of Artisan Lodge are deeply gratified to have M. W. Arthur H. Melanson, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts and his suite join us in the dedication of our new Temple on this 19th day of September 1980. This auspicious occasion will lay the groundwork for another 115 years of prosperity for Masonry in the Town of Winchendon, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
Respectfully submitted, <br />
* R. W. Celian H. Abbott <br />
* Bro. Arnold E. Anderson<br />
* Bro. J. Thomas Engle<br />

The additions made are, six settees, two on each side, and two on the west end of the hall, twelve officers' and three principal cliairs, an altar and three pedestals. The furniture is all of black walnut, of elegant design, and nicely upholstered in terry.

The top of the altar opens with hinges like a trunk, and the inside forms a receptacle for the three Great Lights, Gavels, Batons, etc. There will also be added a cabinet desk for the Secretary, made of black walnut, to match the other fixtures. The brethren of the lodge were heartily congratulated by the M. W.

==== 50TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, NOVEMBER 1920 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1920-365:''<br />
<br />
''By Bro. Horace G. Wadlin.''<br />
<br />
We celebrate tonight the Fiftieth Anniversary of Good Samaritan Lodge. Its history has included no very remarkable event, and its really significant happenings can be compressed into few sentences. Nevertheless it seems fitting to recall them.<br />
<br />
Of course, you all know that this Lodge did not initiate the Masonic movement in Reading. The first connection of Reading with organized Masonry was the institution of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountMoriahR Mount Moriah] Lodge, March 14, 1798, when a Charter was granted to Joseph L. Cordis, Dr. John Hart, and a Mr. Harvey. Mr. Cordis was a large landholder on the east of the lake, a man of "intelligence, judgment, and generous impulses, honorable feelings, and very high spirited. He held many important civil offices, and then, late in life, financially broken, and broken in spirit, committed suicide by jumping into the river from Charlestown Bridge, a pathetic ending of an honorable and useful life. Dr. Hart also was one of the leading men of the town, Selectman, School Committee, Justice, patriot, Vice-President of the Society of the Cincinnati.<br />
<br />
If you glance from the car window as you go toward Boston, you note on the left an old yellow house, just east of the second group of ice-houses below the gas-house in Wakefield. This, one of the oldest houses left, was then in the old First Parish of Reading and owned by Dr. Hart. In that house, in a room especially fitted up, Mount Moriah Lodge used to meet.<br />
<br />
The house was occupied by Harvey, the third charter member, who kept an inn there. It should have an interest for every Mason, being the first home of the Craft in old Reading. Its days are apparently numbered.<br />
<br />
The town was divided in 1812. Four years afterward a Charter was granted to Jacob Goodwin, Daniel Flint, and others for a Lodge here, Mount Moriah approving and relinquishing jurisdiction; and the original [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GoodSamaritan1 Good Samaritan] Lodge, the second Lodge accredited to Reading in the Grand Lodge record, was instituted June 10, 1816.<br />
<br />
Jacob Goodwin I do not know. The Goodwin name is reputable in the town. Daniel Flint, from the North Parish, was one of our foremost citizens, Selectman for thirteen different years, and Representative in the General Court for twelve years — eleven of them consecutive — an office which he held when the Lodge was Constituted. Of its membership or its meetings little is known. The degrees as now worked require more elaborate paraphernalia than was used or would have been available then. But the spirit of Masonry, that spirit which is superior to all ritual or ceremony, however ancient or impressive, was no doubt the same then as now. From the beginning here, as elsewhere, it has attracted men of high standing in the community, leaders in civic affairs, so that Masonry in spirit, if not through the unbroken succession of Masonic, organization, has a respectable antiquity here.<br />
<br />
And then came the exciting events and temporary upheaval following the supposed violent death of Morgan in 1826. Morgan's so-called revelations, whatever their importance, never created the storm which followed his disappearance. Comparatively few read them and, as I said a moment ago, Masonry does not rest merely upon ritual or ceremony, nor can it be overthrown by any disclosures such as were put forth in Morgan's name. But the furor worked up over his unexplained disappearance, carefully blown into flame by shrewd and scheming politicians, was a different matter. Parties divided on the issue of Masonry and Anti-Masonry, and somebody's corpse, never proved to be Morgan's, taken out of the Niagara River, was immediately given the Morgan label, in the hope, as Thurlow Weed said, in that immortal phrase ever since used as a symbol of political chicanery, that "it would prove a good enough Morgan until after election."<br />
<br />
Reading in the early days took its politics, like its religion, very seriously. When Anti-Masonry became a paramount political to say nothing of a religious issue, Reading could by no means keep out of the fire. And Masonry was branded not only as a civic evil, but a religious evil also. The devil, always lurking just behind the veil to the dwellers in old Reading, was now clearly seen sequestered within the portals of the local Masonic Lodge. Families were divided on the question. A man's fidelity to his church, his standing with his neighbors, his common honesty—these were all tried by the one question, was he or was he not a Mason?<br />
<br />
Men saw red, when there was only white or at most pale blue before them. Their very sincerity intensified their prejudices. They wasted a good deal of ingenuity, that might have been better employed, in trying to circumvent the most innocent Masonic operations, which the Masons were equally ingenious in attempting to conceal.<br />
<br />
Parson Sanborn, the long-time leader of the flock, stern theologian of the strict Calvinistic School, whose teachings had so impressed the parish in his thirty years' ministry, that, as I was once told, the people of the town could not in a century get out of their mouths the taste of the food he had fed to them, came from his nine years' retirement to give, in 1829, a powerful Anti-Masonic address, still preserved in print, though I doubt if any of you have ever seen it.<br />
<br />
Of course, Mr. Sanborn, whose sincerity, whose fidelity to his church, cannot be questioned, had no real experience with Masonry to justify his opinions. But that was the case with many who attacked it at the time, although aided by others who were so wrought upon that they abandoned affiliation with the Order. More than three thousand Lodges surrendered their Charters between 1827 and 1830.<br />
<br />
Good Samaritan Lodge (the first) appears in the list of Lodges for the last time in 1840. It was no doubt moribund for some time before that. One at least of its members, Esquire John Weston, one of Reading's strong men, held tenaciously to his Masonic principles, in spite of the criticisms of his neighbors. But the Lodge died and made no sign. Its Charter has disappeared. It was never returned into the Grand Lodge, and no record appears of its formal relinquishment.<br />
<br />
Sometime, perhaps, it may be found in some collection of old papers or in some old attic where it may have slept all these years. It is probably not a very striking document upon its face, and would attract little attention from one unacquainted with its history. But it would have a distinct interest for us.<br />
<br />
As for Mount Moriah Lodge, it went into what a distinguished man once called "innocuous desuetude." In 1848, just fifty years after it was Instituted, District Deputy Grand Master Ordway found its Charter in the hands of one, whom, being long dead, I will not name, "and who was determined not to give it up. What actuated him I do not know. For his refusal he-was expelled from the Order, as I have found from the Grand Lodge records, and that was the final event in the obsequies of Mount Moriah Lodge. Whether its death or that of Good Samaritan Lodge was the more dignified I leave to you. What the recalcitrant member did with the Charter after that does not appear. His error was vicariously rectified, perhaps, in the person of his son, whose services in behalf of Masonry have been variously recognized, and whose fidelity was finally rewarded by his election as Eminent Commander of Hugh de Payens Commandery.<br />
<br />
In 1828 the Anti-Masonic Party cast 33,345 votes out of 276,583 in the country; in 1829, 70,000; and in 1830, 128,000; after which the opposition ceased for a time to be a political issue. The wind of passion died away, and the flame it had kept alive went out as suddenly as it had been kindled. Good citizens who had been unduly disturbed once more slept peacefully o' nights, and the atmosphere gradually cleared itself of smoke.<br />
<br />
Thirty years went by after Good Samaritan Lodge the first passed into oblivion. A new generation was in control. The austerities of the old theology had been softened. The single church of the old faith was itself divided. Others, of different tenets, were well established. Religion, politics, social matters, were not, as in the old days, closely confined within certain family lines. A great war had torn the country, and those who had fought side by side and returned were now drawn together by ties of a common experience in the most serious exigencies of life. They were prepared to work together with others to promote matters of mutual interest.<br />
<br />
Reading in 1870 had a number of Masons, affiliated elsewhere, but enough to form the nucleus of a Lodge. Who first conceived the idea of bringing them together, I do not know. Thirty-four joined in the petition, of whom thirty-three became charter members, although one of the thirty-three never completed his affiliation with the Lodge. If you want a list of the leading men in the town at the time, you will find most of these names on it. I remember all but one or two personally, although when the Lodge was Instituted I was "less than man though somewhat more than boy."<br />
<br />
At the top of the list is the name of the first Worshipful Master, Brother N. D. Stoodley. He was a comparatively newcomer to Reading, but was a "live wire," calculated to transmit a powerful current when put in circuit. Born in New Hampshire, made a Mason like many others at the beginning of the Civil War, he had been Master of the Lodge at Peterborough, where, at Lincoln's first call, he had raised a company of one hundred men, going out as Captain, returning as Major. He was the first Excellent High Priest of Reading Royal Arch Chapter, and always, until advancing years and ill health made it impossible, an active member of the Order.<br />
<br />
Running hastily down the line we find N. H. Turner, an operative as well as a speculative Mason; James Reid, long time Selectman and Town Clerk, and otherwise connected with the activities of the town; F. B. Kimball, a leading physician at the time; Hubbard B. Cox, "a mighty hunter," whom everybody knew; D. B. Lovejoy, long Deputy Sheriff of Middlesex; C. W. Cummings; David Kendall; S. H. Dinsmore; George Grouard; Fred Harnden — all more or less connected with our not unimportant industries; Daniel Creesy and David Temple, leading builders; Edgar M. Brown, of the Boston Custom House; George W. Simes, who built "Simes' Block" on Haven Street; Daniel A. Emery, connected with Mr. Beard's watch and jewelry establishment; A. A. Prescott, our leading lawyer, a well known member of the bar in Middlesex; H. L. Cummings, and C. H. Lang, identified with the express business between here and Boston; William H. Wightman, well known citizen; Earl G. Barton, the dentist, and for a time the only dentist in Reading; a few others less prominent, but not less worthy of remembrance; and Col. Carroll D. Wright of state and national prominence, probably the most widely known of the group. Of him nothing more need be said than what was said by Theodore Roosevelt after his death in 1909: '' He was a public servant of the highest type. I mourn him as such, and I mourn him as a personal friend."<br />
<br />
Today not one of the original petitioners or charter members is on our rolls. Death has claimed them all, except Bro. J. B. Lewis, Jr., who never completed affiliation with this Lodge, and who, as you know, still lives in Reading. There was some informality in his case that resulted in his never completing affiliation. Before or during the Civil War, he had, as I understand the matter, belonged to a Lodge in the South, had neglected to take a dimit, and circumstances prevented his establishing his standing. He outlined the case to me recently, but in consideration of his present state of health, I did not press him for details. They are of little importance now. As for the others, their work, so far as it is embodied in this Lodge, lives after them. We enjoy the fruition of what they hoped for.<br />
<br />
A meeting to outline an organization was held October 24, 1870, and N. D. Stoodley was by ballot selected for Worshipful Master, and other officers selected as appear upon tonight's programme. It was upon Worshipful Brother Reid's motion at this meeting that the name Good Samaritan Lodge was adopted, ''that being the name of the old Lodge in the town."<br />
<br />
Various other meetings were held to perfect arrangements until a Dispensation was granted by M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner William Sewall Gardner], one of. the most eminent of our Grand Masters. Under the Dispensation the first regular communication was held December 14, 1870. A Charter was granted by the Grand Lodge dated September 13, 1871, to take precedence from November 9, 1870. The Lodge was duly Instituted thereunder. The pendulum had swung back from 1840, and Good Samaritan Lodge, duly raised, was again in working form.<br />
<br />
It was voted that each charter member pay the sum of ten dollars as a free gift to the Lodge. This filled the treasury with more than three hundred dollars, and a lease was taken of Ellsworth Hall, in the brick Bank Building, now known as Brande's Block. The necessary alterations were at once made to fit the hall for work, and the required paraphernalia procured. By-Laws (variously amended since) were adopted at the first regular communication December 14, 1870; and at that meeting Brother J. B. Lewis, Jr., presented the Lodge with a Bible.<br />
<br />
At the second communication, January 11, 1871, petitions for degrees were received from H. B. Weston, Rufus B. Wright, and Evarts McQuesten, and they were duly Initiated on the same evening. They were Raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason at a special communication March 16, 1871, and were the first to receive that degree in this Lodge.<br />
<br />
At first Wakefield was under our jurisdiction, which thus covered territory virtually identical with that covered by both the old Reading Lodges. Four early Worshipful Masters of our Lodge have come from that town, Worshipful Brother William D. Deadman, the oldest living Past Master and an honorary member of our Lodge, who is with us tonight; Worshipful Brother S. J. Putney, who is also living, and Worshipful Brothers John G. Morrill and J. Fred Parker, who have deceased. To the present time the Lodge has had twenty-eight Masters, of whom Worshipful Brothers Stoodley, Reid, Emery, Morrill, Parker, Wightman, Roberts, and Cook have died.<br />
<br />
The question of removing Good Samaritan Lodge to Wakefield came up in 1887, and was settled by a negative vote at the one hundred and seventy-first regular communication, October 12th in that year. On December 14th, Worshipful Brother Wightman being Master, a petition for Instituting a Lodge in Wakefield was approved, and subsequently [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GoldenRule2 Golden Rule] Lodge was Instituted there, and our jurisdiction terminated. It was temporarily weakening to our Lodge to lose its members from Wakefield, following this action, but it was unquestionably the proper course to pursue. There was a field in each town for independent Lodges, as has been abundantly shown by the results.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was Instituted with thirty-two active members. In the first twenty-five years one hundred and seventy-six joined by initiation, and thirty-seven by dimit. Today, counting prospective additions to December 31st we have approximately four hundred and fifty. By the returns of last year, out of two hundred and fifty-five Lodges in the state, only fifty-seven had more than that number of members.<br />
<br />
Reading Royal Arch Chapter, with joint jurisdiction over neighboring towns, was chartered November 20, 1872, and has always occupied rooms jointly with this Lodge. In 1893 the initial step was taken that resulted in the formation of a chapter of the Eastern Star.<br />
<br />
In 1892 it seemed desirable to seek other and better quarters. The Odd Fellows were then remodeling a recently acquired building, and at the two hundred and thirtieth communication of Good Samaritan Lodge, in December of that year, a suggestion was received from them looking towards the leasing of apartments in their-reconstructed building. Action was deferred and finally did not take that direction, as the erection of the building now occupied by us seemed to offer greater advantages. <br />
<br />
July 19, 1893, it was voted to take apartments here, and the first regular communication (the two hundred and forty-third of the Lodge) was held in the new Lodge-room January 10, 1894. Worshipful Brother J. Albert Stott, who completed fifty-three years of Masonry in May of the present year, was installed as Master at that meeting. He was elected Master at the last meeting in the old hail, succeeding Worshipful Walter S. Parker, and Brother W. M. Scott began with him his long period of efficient service as Secretary. Bro. Elbridge D. Smith was Tyler, and he will complete thirty years' faithful service in that office next month, and is approaching his fiftieth Masonic year, being the fifteenth member who joined this Lodge while it was working under Dispensation.<br />
<br />
At that first meeting here, in January, 1894, twenty-one members were present besides the sitting officers who were completing their terms, namely: Worshipful Brothers Stoodley and Wightman; Brothers J. W. Webster, W. S. Brown, W. II. Willis, E. B. Eames, J. W. Grimes, 0. B. Buggies, James Hamilton, G. A. Strachan, 0. L. Akerley, W. M. Scott, M. F. Charles, M. C. Skinner, R. F. Loring, M. L. Derrick, J. S. Ellenwood, F. F. Strout, 0. N. Willis, and H. H. Atkinson. And there were four visitors: Brothers Parsons, Blethin, M. Parker, and E. C. Farwell.<br />
<br />
Brother Edward F. Brooks, who afterwards lost his life by the sad railway accident on Main Street, applied for degrees at that meeting; and Brother A. E. Winship, the eminent educator, was given a dimit.<br />
<br />
The first work in the new room was performed at a special communication on the 16th of January, 1894, when Brothers E. W. Perry and James N. Stimpson were Brothers Arthur D. Gordon, Charles L. Richardson, Percy G. Hayden, and William H. Kingman, were Raised to the sublime degree, first of a long line to be Raised in this room.<br />
<br />
The Worshipful Masters who have followed Worshipful Brother Stott are all living, except Worshipful Harry E. Cook, who met with a fatal accident after removing from Reading. They are Worshipful Brothers Bickford, C. A. Loring, Eames, Shackford, R. F. Loring, W. S. Kinsley, Turner, Clough, Bancroft, Dewey, Fletcher, Badger, H. H. Kinsley, and the present Worshipful R. Scott Burgess. To them and to their co-workers the unprecedented growth of the Lodge in recent years, is in no slight measure due. It would be invidious to mention any specially out of that group. You know them, although some are no longer with us. The men who have been responsible for the degree work of the last twenty-five year period, have spared no effort to do that work creditably, and their sacrifice of time and talent in behalf of the Lodge is worthy of the highest praise. Certainly it would be an unpardonable omission to fail to recognize it tonight. And I may at least record anew by way of special mention the obligation the Lodge has felt to one of these Past Masters, Worshipful George A. Shackford, no longer with us, to whom this Lodge was indebted for munificent and appropriate gifts while he was in residence here.<br />
<br />
Of the Past Masters of the earlier half of this fifty year period, besides Worshipful Brothers Stoodley and Reid Brothers John G. Roberts and Daniel A. Emery are recalled among those who have passed beyond.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Brother Emery held the chair in 1874, 1875, and 1876, and in 1883, 1884, and 1885; a longer period by far than any other Master. "Active and zealous in his work as a Mason, prompt to advance the interests of the Order, wise in counsel, fearless in action, honest, and upright," 1 but repeat the opinion of the Lodge itself, expressed upon the occasion of his death in 1892.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Brother Roberts died in 1891. He was always "an active and efficient member, respected and esteemed by all, a citizen who merited and received the approbation of his fellow-townsmen." The Lodge at the time deemed his loss almost irreparable. But, fortunately, no loss, however deplored, is irreparable, when men of good will are united in common purpose. What these men did has been an inspiration to others who have nobly carried on the work they laid down.<br />
<br />
As the Lodge grows older, and its members one by one pass across the median line, death touches our Brothers more frequently, and the summons comes that no man can avoid. Since 1902 nearly fifty members have received that summons. We may call the roll, but from them there is no response. It is a roster of men whom not only this Lodge, but Reading has reason to remember with honest pride; whose services to the town in various ways may long stand as their best memorial.<br />
<br />
Thirty-six members of Good Samaritan Lodge served in the last great war, and among its honored dead is Chester Gould Hartshorn, who "lies under the sky of France," a genial, lovable young man, who went thus to his reward.<br />
<br />
And so I come, at last, to the latest turn in the road. Certain enlargements and improvements were manifestly desirable in the Lodge apartments, which at the end of the second twenty-five years in its history were virtually outgrown. The preliminary investigation of possibilities was entrusted to a committee, which reported in May, at the four hundred and eightieth regular communication of the Lodge. And it was thereupon voted to lease the entire upper floor of this building, and to carry out the alterations in accordance with a plan then submitted. The committee was Worshipful Brother W. S. Kinsley and Brothers H. E. Johnson and Mahlon B. Brande. The result of their work you may see tonight.<br />
<br />
From this time Good Samaritan Lodge enters a new cycle of its life. What is past is history. Into the future I have no warrant to peer. Strong, vigorous, and faithful, its members may be trusted to carry its traditions on, to the honor of Masonry and the perpetuation of that spirit of Brotherhood which lies at the heart of our ancient Order.<br />
<br />
And of this we may be sure. In these troubled times, when nothing seems secure in a whirling and unsettled world; when upon evenpr side the old landmarks are being removed and the old standards thrown aside,. every Masonic Lodge may be regarded as a bulwark against alien innovations which are opposed to the spirit of our civic institutions or destructive of the principles of American liberty consecrated by the sacrifices of the fathers. Destructive radicalism, either in society, religion, or politics, is not likely to find lodgment in the hearts of men who are sincerely devoted to the principles of American Masonry; nor, on the other hand, are they likely to be deaf to any cry of real injustice, or slow to remedy it, wherever found, under a false conservatism that takes no thought of progress.<br />
<br />
I have mentioned Parson Sanborn, and his attitude toward Masonry in the early days in Reading. There was another clergyman here of the same religious communion, but of less austere tenets and far more lovable character, because mellowed by a temperament of broader spirit and a clearer comprehension of what true brotherhood means. He was a man of less intellectual power, perhaps, but of greater affiliation with men outside the charmed -circle of his church. I refer to Rev. Caleb Prentiss, whose pastorate in the old church in the South Parish, before the division of the town, covered, like Sanborn's here, a period of thirty years.<br />
<br />
He was, in the truest sense, social, a friend of innocent enjoyment. He liked to go a-fishing; to skate with his sons and with other boys on the pond in winter, and especially he liked a good game of checkers. He was as true to the spirit of real Christianity as he was superior to the literal tenets of his hard and uncompromising faith. Such things were somewhat rare among the usual accomplishments of Calvinistic clergymen of that day, and in consequence everybody loved Prentiss, while I think few really loved Parson Sanborn, although, knowing his rectitude of character, they respected and followed him.<br />
<br />
Mr. Prentiss understood the inner spirit of Masonry, not viewing it, like Mr. Sanborn, wholly from the outside through a screen of prejudice. And I cannot close better than by letting him speak to you in the quaint and figurative language full of Masonic symbolism that he employed when at Reading, one hundred and twenty-one years ago, on Saint Johns Day, June 24, 1799, he said in an address before Mount Moriah Lodge (and I am sure he would say the same thing if he were here tonight):<br />
<blockquote><br />
"May the members of this Lodge, in imitation of Solomon, who on Mount Moriah built a temple for God, prove themselves to be good workmen in the service of God, who need not be ashamed. May your works be planned with wisdom and skill and in due proportions. May your foundations be laid firm and strong, on the basis of truth, and righteousness. May your buildings display wisdom, strength, and beauty, and be cemented with love. May they be ornamental, useful, and durable. May you ever act upon the square of equity; keep within the compass of reason; plumb your actions with the weight of conscience; walk perpendicularly upright in the line of duty; and level your passions and affections to the rule of sobriety and virtue. May your social interviews be attended with harmony and improvement. May your social joys be temperate, pure, and refined. May your charities make you rich toward God, and secure your treasures in heaven. May you be built up holy temples to the living God, and show forth his praise. May you finally be introduced to the temple of God above, and be members of that holy society of brethren and friends, where light, love, peace, and joy shall reign in perfection; where your labors shall be your pleasures, and your existence one eternal festival of joy and praise!''<br />

==== 75TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, NOVEMBER 1945 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1945-377:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Edward E. Harnden.''<br />
<br />
We, as Masons, define "fortitude" as a "noble and steady purpose of the mind." On this important occasion, the seventy-fifth anniversary of our Good Samaritan Lodge, it seems eminently fitting that we acknowledge and pay tribute to an example of fortitude not excelled, and probably not equalled, by any incident in the recorded history of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Twenty-five years ago, in this same place, we were told in a most scholarly and interesting address delivered by Brother Horace G. Wadlin, how in 1870, thirty-four Masons living in our community gathered themselves into a concerted influence to re-establish here a landmark of social, moral and civic benefit which, through the disastrous effects of a campaign of bigotry and misinformation, had been crushed to extinction during the previous three or four decades.<br />
<br />
As present-day Masons, it is difficult for us to comprehend how any such anti-Masonic furore as developed during the years of the so-called "Morgan expose" could have come about, but to these thirty-four men it was a very real thing. Well they knew that an attempt to reorganize Freemasonry by the formation of a new Lodge in Reading might very conceivably bring down upon them a rain of spite and abuse. They—and indeed their families and their friends—might be made to suffer, both socially and otherwise, through the reactions of a still remaining faction of misinformed zealots who continued to nurture nebulous anti-Masonic ideas. However, these thirty-four "founding brethren" of ours, imbued with a fortitude truly Masonic in its nobility of purpose and steadfastness of action, went about this important business of theirs so soundly that as a result we sit here tonight as guests and members of a Lodge of 550 Masons. As a matter of record, and in simple recognition of their work, which is beyond measurable value to us, I wish to name each one of these thirty-four men of great fortitude.<br />

These were the men whose names were duly inscribed in the first records of our Lodge. In the return of the petition which they submitted, the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, in granting the requested dispensation under date of November 9, 1870, does not mention the name of Daniel Cressey as a signer, but at the first meeting after Good Samaritan Lodge was duly constituted, on October 11, 1871, the name of Daniel Cressey heads a list of twenty-one Masons making application for membership.<br />
<br />
We were told, twenty-five years ago, that not one of these original petitioners was then living. It is a somewhat sobering thought for me that I can recall nine of them very well and that I have more or less recollection of several of the others. There is some consolation for me in the conjecture that there may be member's with us this evening who knew them all.<br />
<br />
The delightfully told history of the first fifty years of Good Samaritan Lodge, which Brother Wadlin gave us in 1920 and which is on record for all who wish to read, leaves little to be said upon it by so ordinary a person as myself. I freely confess that in a research of the records covering those years I came across but few items which drew my attention in addition to those already covered in Brother Wadlin's able address. It might be noted, for instance, that in some of the old-time annual communications there were half a dozen ballots taken before a Master or a Warden could be elected. But the Brethren always achieved harmony in the end.<br />
<br />
In March of 1871, it becomes evident from the records that plans were in the making for a "sociable," such as we would now call a "family night," with the appointment of committees to arrange the various functions of the event. Behold! therefore, in the duly spread records of the special communication of March 22, 1871, written in a right clerkly hand, this entry: "On motion of Bro. Jas. Reid it was voted that the bill of fare reported by the committee on collation be accepted, with the exception of scalloped oysters."<br />
<br />
We start then, in 1870, with a town population of about 3,000; a tax list of $28,000, including a total appropriation for schools of $7,000, and a body of thirty-four resolute Masons.<br />
<br />
At the fifty year mark we record a population rising eight thousand and a strong Masonic Lodge of nearly five hundred members.<br />
<br />
In this year of 1945 we are able to cite an exact figure of 12,327 for population and our membership as of the end of the fiscal year in August, 1945, was 554. It will be noted that following the mention of $27,000 as the total of town taxes levied in 1870, no further statement concerning taxes in later years has been offered. Some comparisons, when tabulated for sober contemplation, do not make for a pleasant evening.<br />
<br />
Taking up the tale from 1920 on, we find ourselves at that time in the throes of a post-war adjustment similar in many respects to conditions which face us at this very moment. I have been told by old-time Masons that the aftermath of war brings with it a heavy influx of applications for the degrees in Freemasonry and this was certainly borne out in those years immediately following the close of World War I. Worshipful R. Scott Burgess, our youngest Past Master in point of Masonic service to be separated from us by death, was in the East during 1919 and 1920. During his first year there was the customary gradual increase in membership. The Secretary's report shows a gain in membership of twelve, from 369 to 381, for the twelve months. Then came the deluge. In Worshipful Brother Burgess" second year, there was a net gain in membership of 73. Notwithstanding the extra efforts of your officers then in line, with full and effective support by every member of the Lodge whenever called upon, the labors of ten regular and thirty-five special communications still left a solid group of thirty men, duly elected to receive the degrees, upon whom no work had been started.<br />
<br />
You all know the Masonic way of dividing candidates into classes small enough in number so that each candidate will feel the personal application of the ceremonies of the several degrees. You will therefore immediately sense that the incoming staff of officers faced a panel of work comprising what might be called "six classes of firsts" (and, indeed, it was so termed at the time). During that year of 1921 we enrolled a new membership of 72, at the same time losing 12 by death and dimit, for a net gain of 60.<br />
<br />
As might be expected, this surge rapidly tapered off during the next ten years, but not until we had reached what from the records appears to be an all-time high of 590 members, in 1930, did the tide turn the other way. Then, during the lean years of mass unemployment and depression, the incoming trickle of applications became meager indeed. Many members asked for dimits and the Grim Reaper stalked among us as always.<br />
<br />
In 1943 we observe for the first time in a long period of years, a net gain in membership. Modest, to be sure—just five. But the following year gives us a gain of 35 and right after that comes our report for the fiscal year ending August 31, 1945, showing a further gain of 38. From present indications, Good Samaritan Lodge may now well be heading for a membership of 600.<br />
<br />
The matter of mere numbers in membership, while it makes for the economic stability of any Lodge and is in general a thing to be desired, is not truly the affair of greatest import to us. Rather let us, in reviewing the progress of Good Samaritan Lodge during its seventy-five years of existence, have a feeling of pride and a sense of satisfaction in the knowledge that our Lodge, together with the whole institution of Freemasonry, has gained a place of honor and high regard in our community. And with this pride and satisfaction, we, as members of this Lodge and as Masons individually, must assume responsibility for the continuance of our tenure in this position.<br />
<br />
We shall be assisted and strengthened in this undertaking so long as we keep firmly in mind those truths and principles of conduct which have been impressed upon us within these very walls, to the end that, under the favor of Almighty God, we may ever go forward in honorable service.<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, NOVEMBER 1970 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1970-548:''<br />
<br />
''By Brother Frank M. Stevens.''<br />
<br />
November 9, 1970 (A.L. 5970) is the 100th Birthday of Good Samaritan Lodge. It is a century of steady progress from the beginnings of 24 Charter members to our present years of continuing growth and activity. It is this event that brings us together with pride and satisfaction to commemorate this great event.<br />
<br />
Reading's first Masonic venture dates from [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountMoriahR Mt. Moriah] Lodge in 1798. It was in the First Parish which became South Reading in 1812 and the Town of Wakefield in 1868. Mt. Moriah Lodge was on the second floor of Dr. Hart's home in a specially furnished Lodge room. Many of you know this today as the Col. Hartshorne House, built in 1681 and located on Church Street in Wakefield.<br />
<br />
Dr. Hart was a prominent man. He served Reading as Selectman, School Committee member, and Justice of the Peace. He was a patriot in the Revolutionary War and became Vice-President of the Society of the Cincinnati, a memorial society formed May 13, 1783, by officers of the Continental Army. George Washington was elected its first President in May 1784.<br />
Reading was divided in 1812, placing Mt. Moriah in South Reading. Four years later Jacob Goodwin, Daniel Flint and others applied for a charter to establish a new Lodge. Mt. Moriah Lodge approved and also relinquished jurisdiction, but finally ceased to operate about September 1829, and the Mt. Moriah Charter was finally surrendered to The Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
The new Lodge was the original [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GoodSamaritan1 Good Samaritan] Lodge and became Reading's second instituted Lodge on June 10, 1816. Backgrounds on two of the petitioners for the Charter are known. Jacob Goodwin was a man of considerable prominence.<br />
Daniel Flint was Selectman for 13 years, Representative in the General Court for 12 years, and in other ways a leading citizen. The other Charter members left no record that we can find.<br />
<br />
Good Samaritan Lodge continued until 1840, at which time they ceased to report to the Grand Lodge and the Charter was finally lost. The closing was caused by the national events following the "Morgan Incident."<br />
<br />
Within the period of 1827 to 1830, many Lodges surrendered their Charters because of pressure caused by the furor. Good Samaritan Lodge linally ceased operations in 1840 as a result of these persecutions.<br />
<br />
In 1870, Reading was a town of 2436 population. The Town Report showed a real estate valuation of $992,881 and personal property, $262,336. The school budget was $5,000 and listed the cost per pupil (ages 5-15) at $12.38. In this setting, with some misgivings and a firm determination to succeed, 34 Master Masons from Reading assembled in Ellsworth Hall on Monday evening, October 24, 1870, for the purpose of forming a Masonic Lodge.<br />
<br />
Ellsworth Hall was on the third floor of the present Mechanics Savings Bank, Reading Square at the corner of Pleasant Street. It is now a remodeled two-story building.<br />
<br />
Thirty-four signed the petition to the Grand Lodge and 24 later signed the Charter. Charter members were: Nathan D. Stoodley, Naaman H. Turner, James Reid, Charles W. Cum-mings, Frank B. Kimball, Daniel B. Lovejoy, Charles H. Lang, Carroll D. Wright, William H. Perkins, William H. Wightman, Earl G. Barton, Thomas C. Trow, David C. Temple, George W. Grouard, Samuel T. Sweetser, George W. Simcs, David H. Kendall, S. D. Niles, Jacob Graves, Samuel H. Dinsmore, William J. Holden, Alonzo L. Smith, Hubbard E. Cox and Daniel A. Emery.<br />
<br />
Thirty years had passed since the second Lodge in Reading had closed its doors. The Civil War was over and the serious business of rebuilding the nation was of great importance. Wor. Brother Nathan D. Stoodley, Past Master of a Lodge in Peterborough, N.H., was elected chairman of the meeting. Brother John B. Lewis was elected Secretary. Brother William H. Perkins was appointed by the chair to procure a Dispensation from the Grand Lodge. Brother Naaman H. Turner then moved the election of officers: War. Brother Nathan D. Stoodley, Master; Jacob Graves, Senior Warden; Charles W. Cum-mings, Junior Warden; James Reid, Treasurer; W. J. Holden, Secretary.<br />
<br />
Brother James Reid moved to adopt the name. Good Samaritan Lodge, which was the name of an earlier Lodge in Reading. The Charter Members were vouched for by [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountHorebW Mt. Horeb] Lodge in Woburn.<br />
<br />
The Dispensation was granted and signed by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner William Sewall Gardner], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and duly attested by Brother [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLSThornton Solon Thornton], Grand Secretary, on November 9, 1870.<br />
<br />
From early records, we have some idea of the caliber of men who successfully launched our present Lodge on a journey through its first small beginnings. Wor. Bro. Nathan D. Stoodley, Master of a Lodge in Peterborough, N.H., recruited a company of 100 men during the Civil War and was their Captain. He returned to Peterborough as a Major. He later came to Reading and was the moving spirit and leader in forming Good Samaritan Lodge. James Reid served as Town Clerk and Selectman in Reading. F. B. Kimball was a Physician. D. B. Lovejoy was Deputy Sheriff for Middlesex County. George Simes was the builder of Simes Block, located on Haven Street at the corner of Gould Street. Daniel A. Emery was a jeweler. A. A. Prescott was an attorney. H. L. Cummings and C. H. Lang operated an express business between Reading and Boston. E. G. Barton was listed as our only Dentist. C. D. Wright was an Army Colonel of national fame of whom Theodore Roosevelt said, at his death: "He was a public servant of the highest type. I mourn him as such and I mourn him as a personal friend."<br />
<br />
At the November 14th meeting, it was voted to draw up a code of By-Laws, secure a Bible, and all other paraphernalia needed to furnish the Lodge. The jewels of the first Good Samaritan Lodge, cast by [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere], were no longer in our possession, for they had been sold to [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Wyoming Wyoming] Lodge in Melrose. The records show that a draft was drawn by their Secretary payable to Brother Thomas Pratt of the earlier Good Samaritan Lodge for $46. on May 3, 1860. These jewels had previously been loaned to Wyoming Lodge early in 1856 when that Lodge opened.<br />
<br />
It was voted that each Charter Member of Good Samaritan Lodge make a gift of $10. to the Lodge. They then voted to hold regular communications on the second Wednesday evening of each month.<br />
<br />
To the officers elected, Wor. Stoodley made the following appointments: Brothers D. A. Emery, Senior Deacon; D. C. Temple, Junior Deacon; N. H. Turner, Senior Steward; S. T. Swcetser, Junior Steward; and D. H. Kendall, Marshal.<br />
The first regular communication under Dispensation of November 9th was held on December 14th. The By-Laws were read Article by Article and voted on separately. All 13 Articles were adopted.<br />
<br />
The Organist and Tyler were to receive such salary as the Lodge decided, for each meeting they attended. In addition, the Tyler was exempt from quarterages, a term referring to the quarterly dues of $4. An initiation fee of $15. accompanied each new application for membership and $20. additional was paid on the night candidates received their First Degree. A Brother who affiliated was charged a $10. fee.<br />
<br />
The March 8, 1871 meeting was highlighted by our first applicant from North Reading, Grafton F. Abbott.<br />
<br />
The April meeting produced applications from South Reading, later to be named Wakefield, from William D. Dcadman, Samuel H. Gowing and William H. Bridges and one from Wilmington, John G. Morrill.<br />
<br />
An appeal by the Grand Lodge for donations to the victims of the Great Chicago fire was read at the November 8, 1871 meeting. A collection was taken up and sent to the Grand Lodge "to use as they saw fit."<br />
<br />
An invitation was extended to the Lodge members at the October 1872 meeting to be present for the installation of officers in the recently formed Reading Royal Arch Chapter to be held in the same Lodge room.<br />
<br />
In 1873, we find the first application with age and occupation stated in the record by N. D. Stoodley as Secretary. However, he never bothered to number the meetings; this task was assumed by Wor. James Reid when he became Secretary the following year. He went back to the 14th Regular and brought them up to his 24th Regular Communication.<br />
<br />
May 13, 1874 must have been a very special occasion. The Secretary reported as present: 12 officers, 22 members and 94 visiting Brothers from all parts of Massachusetts, several Western and Southern States plus one Canadian Lodge.<br />
<br />
Brothers Allen M. Ripley, Herbert A. Skinner, John G. Estabrooks and Dudley F. Hunt were raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason. The Secretary's records say nothing more except to report routine business. All Brothers and their Lodges were listed in his three-page report. We do know that Brother Dudley F, Hunt was well-known from Coast to Coast as an importer. This may explain the large number of visiting Brothers, from as far west as California.<br />
<br />
Wor. James Reid (Master 1872-73) was Secretary at this time. He possessed a good sense of humor and was extremely popular. The November 10, 1875 meeting, opening at 7:45 p.m., was held during a very heavy rainstorm. R. W. Theodore N. Fogise, D.D. Grand Master and suite were present for an Official Visitation and received promptly. No candidates showed up and there is no record of Brothers being present. The Lodge closed at 9:15 p.m. Our genial Secretary ended his report with these words: "Lodge closed in form at 9:15 p.m. Peace, harmony and a rain storm prevailing."<br />
<br />
On March 16th at a special meeting, the first three applicants from Reading, H. D. Weston, Rufus B. Wright and Evarts McQuesten, were raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason.<br />
<br />
On August 16, 1871, we received the District Deputy Grand Master, Rt. Wor. Brother Perkins. Three brothers were raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason and it was decided to call a special meeting to elect a new slate of officers. The present officers held nine regular and 16 special meetings in the first eleven months. In the early years, there was no nominating committee. Secret balloting was often a long drawn-out task; but in the end, ofiicers were elected. Under this system the following were elected: Wor. Nathan D. Stoodley, Worshipful Master; James Reid, Senior Warden; C. W. Cummings, Junior Warden; George Grouard, Treasurer; and W. J. Holden, Secretary. The Worshipful Master then appointed the officers as follows: E. McQuesten, Senior Deacon; D. G. Temple, Junior Deacon; John McDonald, Senior Steward; S. F. Sweetser, Junior Steward; T. C. Trow, Inside Sentinel; W. S. Richardson, Marshal; T. Richards, Tyler; Rev. Bro. Slack, Chaplain.<br />
<br />
On October 11, 1871, the officers of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, under the direction of the District Deputy Grand Master, Rt. Wor. H. P. Perkins, constituted Good Samaritan Lodge in due and ancient form, dedicated the hall and installed its officers according to ancient usages.<br />
<br />
After nine regular and 18 special communications, under Dispensation, Good Samaritan Lodge arrived at the first Regular Communication of our present Lodge. The 21 Brothers who had been initiated, crafted and raised under Dispensation applied for membership and were formally accepted as members of the newly constituted Lodge.<br />
<br />
The Secretary was voted a salary of $25 and the Tyler was to receive $1 for each meeting he attended. Two hundred copies of the By-Laws as amended in the Spring were printed containing a list of the 24 Charter and other members.<br />
An appeal by the Grand Lodge for donations to the victims of the Great Chicago fire was read at the November 8, 1871 meeting. A collection was taken up and sent to the Grand Lodge "to use as they saw fit."<br />
<br />
An invitation was extended to the Lodge members at the October 1872 meeting to be present for the installation of officers in the recently formed Reading Royal Arch Chapter to be held in the same Lodge room.<br />
<br />
A post-war depression in the nation was being felt here in Reading. Money was tight and several Brothers dcmitted in 1878 and 1879. Dues were reduced from £20 to $10. Unpaid rent from the Royal Arch Chapter was cancelled and the rent for the Knight of Honor and Pilgrim Fathers Lodges reduced to $100.<br />
<br />
The first Masonic Funeral recorded was March 27, 1881 with a service in the home and a commital service at the grave for Brother Daniel Cusey.<br />
<br />
In June, 1881, the Lodge held a fair netting a profit of $1,813.85. $1,000 was deposited in the National Bank; $300 cancelled a note, and $513.85 was used to pay rent up to the end of August and refurnished the Lodge rooms.<br />
In July a committee was appointed to secure Lodge rooms in Lyceum Hall on Haven Street opposite our present quarters. Rent amounted to $250 per year. The new Lodge room was 36' x 50'. Cost of replastering, carpentry, and a $10 wood-burning stove for heating came to $794.61 and our $1,000 bank balance all but disappeared. Just $205.39 remained. Our new Lodge rooms were upstairs in the extension of the building.<br />
<br />
Our $205.39 bank balance did not last long. In January, 1882, the committee requested $200 for the following items: settees, $119.25; cuspidors and water cooler, $10.75; other items came to $70. Cash balance now $5.39.<br />
<br />
When the Lodge had no initiation of candidates, the Worshipful Master would select one of the lecturers, ask the questions, and quiz the Brothers in turn around the hall to test their proficiency in Masonic knowledge.<br />
<br />
From 1884 through 1886 the Lodge continued to operate on a budget of about $400 and cash on hand from $50 to $93.<br />
<br />
Reading Royal Arch Chapter was also having trouble and was frequently granted further time to pay their rent. Being a Good Samaritan to the Chapter finally paid off early in 1886 when the Chapter paid in full and made a $50 donation to the Lodge as a means of saying "Thank you." For reasons not explained.<br />
<br />
there was serious discussion of moving the Lodge to the recently-incorporated Town of Wakefield. It came to a vote on October 12, 1887 and was defeated. The Wakefield members of our Lodge asked for and got our approval to petition the Grand Lodge for permission to institute a Lodge in Wakefield to be called Wakefield Lodge, now [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GoldenRule2 Golden Rule] Lodge.<br />
<br />
At the November 1890 meeting, our membership of 58 Brothers celebrated the Twentieth Anniversary with proper ceremonies. Cost of this event was $100.<br />
<br />
In December, 1890, the Organist was voted a collar and apron with proper insignia of his office on both.<br />
<br />
In 1891, we memorialized the death of Wor. Brother Daniel A. Emery, who served six terms as Master of our Lodge. He was the first Past Master and Charter member to pass away in Good Samaritan Lodge.<br />
<br />
At a Special Communication on July 19, 1893, we voted to engage apartments in the new building being erected at the corner of Main and Haven Streets where we are now located.<br />
<br />
Worshipful J. Albert Stott was elected Master at the December meeting, our last in the old apartment and was installed at the first meeting in the new building on January 10, 1894. The $500 appropriated in October to furnish the new apartments was increased an additional $300 at the January meeting and later upped another $128.64 the following November. The December annual meeting announced our membership as 100.<br />
<br />
On June 17, 1895, 28 members and 14 officers went to Charles-town to join in the Centennial of the erection, by [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=KingSolomon King Solomon's] Lodge, of the first monument on Bunker Hill.<br />
<br />
With 11 new candidates applying for membership and seven waiting degrees, the Lodge worked Specials in July and August 1895. On October 13, 1898, a Special Communication was held to attend the funeral of Bro. John S. Ellenwood. A page in the Secretary's records was set aside in his memory. This is the first such record and a custom wc have continued.<br />
<br />
The Order of the Eastern Star, instituted on May 8, 1896, was granted the use of the Masonic Apartments. Rent was $168 annually.<br />
<br />
At the January 1900 Communication, the By-Laws were amended to provide for the election of three Trustees to care for the General Funds of Good Samaritan Lodge and its surplus revenue. The funds were to be used by a two-thirds vote of members present and voting.<br />
<br />
The Grand Lodge appointed Wor. Walter S. Parker as District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAMalden7_1911-1926 7th Masonic District], who in turn named Wor. Daniel T. Bickford as District Deputy Grand Marshal.<br />
<br />
An organ was purchased and installed in the Lodge room prior to the December 5, 1900 meeting at a cost of $950. Bro. G. A. Shackford made us a gift of $100 towards payment and later cancelled the $850 note.<br />
<br />
A public installation of officers was held on December 27, 1900 in the presence of 250 people. The exercises opened with an organ recital, followed by the installation ceremonies. Dancing completed the evening at midnight.<br />
<br />
On June 5, 1901, 27 Wilmington Brothers signed a petition, approved by the District Deputy Grand Master, requesting that Good Samaritan Lodge recommend a [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Friendship3 Masonic Lodge] in Wilmington. We voted to recommend.<br />
<br />
On November 5, 1902, we commemorated the fact that it was exactly 150 years ago that George Washington was made a Mason. One month later, Wor. Brother James Reid was voted an Honorary Life Membership for his long and meritorious service to the Lodge. An item in the financial statement of December 3, 1902 — cost of cigars $38.50 — will remind our older Brothers of this custom, when we were called from labor to refreshment. The Junior Deacon stood in the doorway with a smile on his face and an open box of cigars in his hands as the Brothers passed by.<br />
<br />
On April 11, 1907, Golden Rule Lodge, Wakefield, held their 194th Regular Communication in the Masonic Apartments, Reading. Their apartments in Odd Fellows Hall, Wakefield, were undergoing repairs.<br />
<br />
In May, we learned of the Grand Lodge's plan to establish a Masonic Home.<br />
<br />
We celebrated our 40th Anniversary on December 7, 1910. Brother Elbridge D. Smith had completed 20 years of service as Tyler. Members presented him $50 in gold and an Honorary Life Membership.<br />
<br />
In 1911, we passed the 300 membership mark. The Lodge wanted to lease the public hall with balcony (our present banquet hall) rather than rent it each month. It was offered to us for $1,200 per year, but this was considered too high a price and we declined.<br />
<br />
In May, 1912, a tribute was paid to the Brothers who lost their lives when the ''Titanic'' sank after colliding with an iceberg in the North Atlantic. Rt. Wor. Walter S. Parker presented the Lodge a Past Master's diploma bestowed on Wor. John Weston by Mt. Moriah Lodge. Bro. R. S. Burgess presented the Lodge an historic gavel. The head was made from a magnolia tree planted by George Washington and the handle from an apple tree at Woodlawn, the home of Nellie Custis, adopted daughter of George Washington.<br />
<br />
Initiation fees were increased to $40 in October, 1912; $5. to be contributed to the Masonic Home Fund.<br />
<br />
Wor. Edgar O. Dewey had raised 43 Master Masons during his two years as Master. These Brothers presented him a Past Master's apron.<br />
<br />
Membership in December, 1912, was 324; Cash on Hand was $804.73; Trustees Funds of $1,971.63 earned 4%; cigars for Brothers, $131.25.<br />
<br />
On October 7, 1914, we amended the By-Laws on Life Membership requirements: "Members who have served as Worshipful Master for one year; members who have paid dues for 30 years or who shall have become age 70 and paid dues for 20 years. They shall be given a certificate to that effect without further action and dues exempt. Anyone shall become a Life Member upon payment of $75." Brother Burton K. Symonds became our first Life Member by paying $75.<br />
<br />
June 18, 1916. Rev. Bro. Marion Franklin Ham, Lodge Chaplain and Pastor of the Christian Union Church in Reading Square, opposite our Apartments, invited the Brothers to his service on St. John's Sunday.<br />
<br />
On March 7, 1917, Brother Charles B. Beaudry was voted an Honorary Membership. He never was an officer, yet by his faithful attendance at meetings and officers' rehearsals, he was qualified to fill many stations and be of great service in other ways. He was an exceptional and faithful member for many years and as such was properly rewarded.<br />
<br />
On September 5, 1917, war had been declared on Germany and her allies the previous spring. We, therefore, "Voted that a Roll of Honor be established and that the names of all members of the Lodge who have or may enter the Military or Naval Service of the United States or her allies be placed thereon and their dues remitted from September, 1917, for the duration of the present war."<br />
<br />
On December 4, 1918, we voted that the name of "Good Will Fund" be substituted for the present name, Charity Fund, it being a more fitting name for a fund "established for the purpose of showing our Brotherly Love."<br />
<br />
We now had 369 members of whom 27 were in war service. Wor. Bro. John F. Turner, who served us as Associate Member on the Board of Masonic Relief in Grand Lodge, gave us an unusually fine and detailed report on the activities at the Masonic Home. He reported that 2.806 bushels of potatoes and other produce were harvested by the members of the Home.<br />
<br />
On April 2, 1919, we voted #25, and with other Lodges in the District, presented a new set of regalia to the newly organized [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Fidelity Fidelity] Lodge. One month later we appropriated #310 to repair and install an electric motor for our organ.<br />
<br />
Wor. Bro. J. Albert Stott received the Henry Price Medal awarded by the Grand Lodge to commemorate his 50 years as a Master Mason. It was actually his 52nd year, as his membership predated Good Samaritan Lodge by three years. The members were entertained by Rev. Bro. Marion Franklin Ham's well-known readings from his "Kinchin Stories."<br />
<br />
At the October 17, 1919 meeting, we were honored by a visit from the Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLAbbott Leon M. Abbott], Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. A banquet followed with the members who served in the World War as our honored guests. Seventeen of the 36 who served were present. They were welcomed by Rt. Wor. Walter S. Parker, a Civil War Veteran. Rev. Bro. M. F. Ham paid a fitting memorial tribute to the one Brother who did not return.<br />
<br />
In April, 1920, we secured the exclusive use of the entire third floor for $840 annually. We purchased the piano and seats for $500 additional. We voted the Committee on Alterations a sum not to exceed $4,000 at the May meeting to re-decorate and make any needed alterations. Later this committee informed us that the #4,000 was gone and the work not finished. They said the total cost would be $11,748. After considerable discussion, we voted to finance the project by $10,000 on non-interest bearing notes, issued by the Lodge. We were optimistic in spite of this increase in debt as we had nineteen candidates voted to receive the degrees and eight applications not yet acted upon and our 50th Anniversary a few months away.<br />
<br />
On November 9, 1920, we held a Special Communication with 216 members and 33 visitors present to observe our 50th Anniversary. (1920 Mass. 363-382) Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Arthur D. Prince], Grand Master, was received by Wor, R. Scott Burgess. "After this impressive ceremony we adjourned to the banquet hall where an hour was spent enjoying the bountifully spread tables and the music of the orchestra. After the dinner, all proceeded to the Lodge Room and listened to the scholarly historical address by Bro. Horace G. Wadlen."<br />
<br />
The Most Worshipful Grand Master delivered an entertaining and instructive address. He presented Wor. Brother Deadman and Brother E. D. Smith with Henry Price medals emblematical of SO years membership in Masonic Lodges with distinguished service.<br />
<br />
The December Annual Meeting was attended by 119 members and eight visitors. The Lodge had raised 88 new members during the year, reported 15 lost by death or demit for a net gain of 73 members, raising our membership to 454.<br />
<br />
The Committee on Alterations reported the final cost of alterations totalling $14,141.93, and we had a 20-year lease. The balcony in the Lodge Hall was to provide quarters for a new Commandery that might soon be started in Reading.<br />
The report was signed by Brothers William S. Kinsley, Chairman; Henry R. Johnson, Secretary; M. E. Brande, Treasurer.<br />
Bro. Walter M. Scott, having served as Secretary for 27 years, declined re-election, and Rt. Wor. Edgar O. Dewey was elected to take his place.<br />
<br />
On January 5, 1921, Rt. Wor. Edward Wentworth. District Deputy Grand Master of the 7th Masonic District, paid us a visit and spoke of a fund being raised by the George Washington Masonic National Memorial Association.<br />
<br />
The Town of Reading had a gift of land for a Memorial Park between Salem and Charles Streets and the Lodge sent a delegation of workers dressed in old clothes, carrying picks, shovels and rakes on Community Day, April 19, 1921. The purpose was to put the grounds in order for public use. Pictures of this event still hang in the selectmen's and town clerk's offices in the Town Building. It was a day when all organizations joined in real hard but rewarding work for Reading civic betterment. An epidemic of blisters and aching backs were reported April 20th.<br />
<br />
At the May meeting, we voted to increase dues from $4 to $8 and life membership from $75 to $125. Bro. Walter M. Scott was presented with a purse of $100 in gold, also a traveling bag and case as a token of the high esteem in which he was held by the Brothers for his 27 years of faithful service as our Secretary. The newly formed Reading Commandery #50, K.T., purchased from the Lodge $1,000 in Government Bonds at face value rather than have us sell at market value. We thanked them for this generosity. We sent a check of $432 to the Grand Lodge as our contribution to the George Washington Masonic National Memorial Fund.<br />
<br />
At the meeting in June, 1921, we stood as Brother John LeRoy Anderson signed the By-Laws as our 500th member.<br />
<br />
The 495th regular and annual communication held on Wednesday, December 7, 1921, is worth a note for several reasons. We purchased a half interest in Reading Royal Arch Chapter's new typewriter for $45 and Rt. Wor. Bro. Dewey gave us the first typewritten Secretary's report of communications. It was the first time our assets reached $10,000 and the first year our membership of 514 had exceeded the 500 mark. Several members had made a Pilgrimage to the Charlton Masonic Home and donated a stand of National and State flags to be placed in the Chapel.<br />
<br />
Bro. Elbridge D. Smith, Tyler for 31 years, resigned the position and was presented to the East where he was paid a well-deserved tribute for long and faithful service. The following June we presented him a purse of $160 in gold as a material gift of our appreciation.<br />
<br />
Bro. Henry R. Johnson presented the Lodge a State flag in honor of the installation of his son, H. Raymond Johnson, as Worshipful Master.<br />
<br />
In May, 1922, we voted $45 towards a gift of regalia to be presented to the new [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Galilean Galilean] Lodge of Everett, U. D., by Lodges of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAMalden7_1911-1926 7th Masonic District].<br />
<br />
1921-22 was a depression period. Jobs were scarce and we voted to print in our monthly notices an item seeking job opportunities to aid Brothers out of work.<br />
<br />
Our Masonic Service Night on March 16, 1923, started with a banquet for 150 members and visitors. We then received Rt. Wor. Sanford Crandon, District Deputy Grand Master of the 7th Masonic District. Following this, we were entertained with a radio concert. This new means of entertainment %vas given to us by Brother James M. Maxwell and one of his sons.<br />
In 1924, we assisted in sponsoring Middlesex Chapter, Order of DeMolay.<br />
<br />
On January 7, 1925, Wor. Edgar O. Dewey was appointed District Deputy Grand Master of the 7th Masonic District.<br />
At the March meeting, we voted to reduce the dues from $8 to $7, as of June 1, 1925.<br />
<br />
On March 5, we attended the funeral service of Bro. Frederick D. Merrill. It is the first recorded where the whole Masonic service was in the Chapel of a Funeral Home.<br />
<br />
On January 5, 1927, we changed our annual communication to September with the Installation at or before the Stated Communication in October.<br />
<br />
On April 6, 1927, Fifty-year Veterans' Medals were presented to Wor. Bro. J. Albert Stott, who was raised on May 24, 1867 in Grecian Lodge of Lawrence and Wor. Bro. Stillman J. Putnam who was raised on February 11, 1874 and Bro. Elbridge D. Smith, raised September 11, 1871. The two latter were raised in Good Samaritan Lodge.<br />
<br />
On May 2, 1928, we had a Past Masters' Night which was the first recorded where the Past Masters of Good Samaritan Lodge did the work. Other times they were present and recognized. At the September 1928 Annual Meeting, we reported 24 were raised during the year, but death and demits claimed 21 for a net gain of 3 to 571. The Grand Lodge reported progress on the new Juniper Hall, a Masonic Hospital in Shrewsbury, planned for members with incurable diseases or any problem case that could not be accommodated at the Home in Charlton.<br />
<br />
Juniper Hall then had 92 patients. In the next year we raised $759 for this work.<br />
<br />
In June, 1929, we voted free use of our Lodge Apartments for the Order of Rainbow for Girls, two nights per month and for any other meetings they desired, provided they did not conflict with other organizations using the Apartments.<br />
<br />
On New Year's Day, 1930, Good Samaritan Lodge held its 576th Regular Communication. Wor. Donald H. Morse opened at 7:05 p.m. Eleven officers were present; no members or visitors. The Secretary's report was read and approved. The meeting closed at 7:17 p.m., the shortest meeting on record.<br />
<br />
Wc voted $50 for a new Altar Cloth to be presented to the Order of Rainbow for Girls when they opened Saturday, <br />
<br />
February 15, for their first installation and initiation of candidates. Our Worshipful Master, Donald H. Morse, served on the first Advisory Board.<br />
<br />
In October, 1931, Bro. Ralph G. Nichols presented the Lodge with a piece of stone from the quarry where the stones for the building of King Solomon's Temple were quarried. The Past Master's jewel worn by Wor. Daniel A. Emery was given to our Lodge by Mary Louise Chadbourn, a relative.<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Edgar O. Dewey became an honorary life member in recognition of his long and active labors for Good Samaritan Lodge. A report of the cost of ventilating our Lodge room was presented in four bids at our December 1931 meeting. After some discussion, the subject matter was tabled. We considered a reduction of dues, but needing the money, we did not act on the motion. Unpaid dues were at an all time high, and the Lodge became very lenient on members in arrears.<br />
<br />
Our January, 1937 meeting, announced the appointment of Wor. Frederick E. Smith as District Deputy Grand Master of the <br />
MAMalden7_1927-2003 Maiden 7th District]. Wor. Albert E. Sargent became District Deputy Grand Marshal and Wor. Arthur W. Bancroft was the District Deputy Grand Secretary. At the April meeting, a framed lithograph representing King Solomon's Temple was presented to the Lodge by Brothers Frank, Thomas and William Webb. It still hangs on the wall in the smoking room. During 1937, Wor. Ralph S. Keneely became the first Master in seven years to show no loss in membership during his term of office. He raised six candidates and lost six members.<br />
<br />
On April 30, 1939, 100 members and visitors attended a commemoration service at the Congregational Church of the 150th Anniversary of the first inauguration of Wor. Bro. George Washington as President of the United States. We also assisted the Town of Reading in recognizing the 300th Anniversary of Founder's Day for the settlement of the Town of Reading, which preceded by five years the Incorporation of the Town.<br />
<br />
In June, 1939, Wor. William E. Gray received the Distinguished Service Medal from the Grand Lodge for having been a Worshipful Master fifty years ago and now the oldest living Past Master of our Lodge. He was raised on April 14, 1886 and Master of the Lodge in 1889.<br />
<br />
The Annual Report in September showed 14 new members and 12 lost by death and demit, a gain of 2 for the year. This was the first gain since 1931.<br />
<br />
In 1940, the following received 50-year Veteran's Medals: Brother Martin B. Hartshorn and Wor. Bro. Charles A. Loring, and we voted to designate the Past Master's jewel worn by Wor. Daniel A. Emery as "The Presiding Master's Jewel." It is to be worn each year by the presiding Master and passed on by him to the newly installed Master at the time of his Installation. In accordance with this vote, Wor. Bro. Fairclough invested Wor. Bro. Clifton S. Nichols with this jewel as the first to wear it in his year as Master. A whole page in the Secretary's records was set aside to memorialize the passing of Rt. Wor. Bro. Edgar O. Dewey on June 23, 1940. He served as Master 1911-12, was District Deputy Grand Master in 1925-26, and Secretary of the Lodge for the past 19 years. He was a good citizen, a good soldier, a good public servant as U.S. Postmaster in Reading and a fine Mason.<br />
<br />
At the September 1940 meeting, we discussed extensive repairs, to cost over $4,700, reported by Wor. Arthur W. Bancroft, Chairman of Repairs, Replacements and Alterations Committee. We listened to the report, voted to accept the report, spread it on the records, and discharged the committee with thanks for its work. Love's labor lost.<br />
<br />
We reported a net loss of 15 members and dropped below the 500 member mark for the first time since the ceremony of signing our 500th member in June of 1921.<br />
<br />
Most Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMACoolidge Arthur W. Coolidge], member of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Zetland Zetland] Lodge in Boston, with residence on Summer Ave., Reading, became an Honorary Member of our Lodge. He was Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts 1944. He appointed Wor. Ralph G. Babcock, Junior Grand Steward of the Grand Lodge. Wor. Bro. Babcock was Master of our Lodge in 1936-37. While in office, he introduced the custom of presenting a Bible to each new Master Mason. This custom has continued. He was appointed District Deputy Grand Master of the 7th Maiden Masonic District, 1945-46. He in turn appointed Wor. Preston F. Nichols District Deputy Grand Marshal and Wor. Clifton S. Nichols District Deputy Grand Secretary.<br />
<br />
On November 7, 1945, our Lodge celebrated its 75th Anniversary. ''(1945 Mass. 374-381)'' Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel H. Wragg], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and a distinguished suite of 23 Grand Officers joined our 173 members and guests for an evening long to be remembered. Worshipful Edward E. Harnden (1921) read an interesting paper entitled "Historical Notes on Good Samaritan Lodge in Reading." M. W. Samuel H. Wragg concluded the ceremony with an appropriate and interesting address. This concluded our celebration which had started the previous Sunday, November 4, with a service of worship at the Methodist Church. Rev. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLDImler D. Joseph Imler], Grand Chaplain, delivered the address. He was assisted by our Chaplain, Rev. Bro. Willard C. Arnold.<br />
<br />
At the September 1946 meeting, we reported 585 members with residence as follows: 392 in Reading, 41 in North Reading, 109 in other towns and cities in Massachusetts and one in Nova Scotia. Four hundred and eighteen paid dues and 167 were Life Members. This caused us to realize that life membership is too low with 28% on this basis. The following June we voted an initiation fee of #65 and Life Membership was raised to 25 times the annual dues.<br />
<br />
In November 1947 the new carpet was laid and the floor work of our officers definitely improved.<br />
<br />
Not all of Masonry is form and ceremony. We held a Christmas party in 1949 for 475 Masonic children. It differed somewhat from the Father and Offspring Party of May 1946, but both were declared a howling success.<br />
<br />
Our small reference Library was started in late 1950.<br />
<br />
In 1951, Bro. Earle L. M. Coolidge was made an Honorary Life Member, not only for his long service as Tyler, but for the many other ways he served unselfishly.<br />
<br />
Early in 1953 we considered acquiring the Odd Fellows property on Woburn Street. It had many features we needed, but after careful investigation it proved too costly to renovate and maintain. We therefore spent $960 on new seating for our present Lodge room and abandoned the move.<br />
<br />
At the Annual Meeting in 1953 it was reported for the first time that every dues-paying member had paid in full. The new By-Law on suspensions enacted last Spring plus some hard work by our Secretary, Wor. Al Sargent, really got results.<br />
While Wor. G. Burton Long was Master, we co-sponsored Middlesex Chapter of the Order of DeMolay with Reading Commandery #50. The Commandery had been the lone sponsor for years.<br />
<br />
"York Rite Night" was introduced in November of 1954 and became an annual event to enlighten the Brothers with other bodies as one of two ways to advance in Masonic knowledge. We held a Commemorative ceremony for our late M. W. Brother Arthur W. Coolidge with M .W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWJohnson Whitfield W. Johnson], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts and Suite in attendance. After a roast turkey dinner, Mrs. Coolidge and seven members of her family were escorted into the Lodge where she presented her late husband's Grand Master's Apron to our M. W. Grand Master. He in turn presented it to Wor. Edwin O. Lundberg, who received it in behalf of our Lodge. We set up a card committee to write to those Brothers who were sick at home or in a hospital. More than 275 cards were mailed during 1955. This custom has been continued and much appreciated.<br />
<br />
Bro. Harold F. Parker was presented his 50-year Veteran's Medal on December 7, 1955 and in turn presented the Lodge with a Past Master's Jewel worn by his father, R. W. Walter S. Parker, in 1892-93. It is now properly framed at the Apartments.<br />
<br />
A framed Masonic Diploma, issued to Bro. William Eaton on April 27, 1824, as a member of the first Good Samaritan Lodge, and found in an attic in North Reading, was presented to us by Brother C. Nelson Bishop at our December 1958 meeting. It was later turned over to our Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
Bro. Wendell Newell presided at the new Conn Electric Organ on April 1, 1959 following a banquet at which Wor. Albert E. Sargent was recognized for his 26 years of continuous desk service to the Lodge, seven as Treasurer and later 19 years as Secretary. From 1942 through 1959, we grew from a membership of 481 to 879, a growth of 398 in 17 years. In 1960, we reported our first loss of 14 bringing the total to 865.<br />
<br />
Following the meeting of May 3, 1961, a committee headed by Rt. Wor. Aaron R. Davison, District Deputy Grand Master of the Maiden 7th Masonic District, repaired to the home of Wor. Albert E. Sargent, who was ill, for the purpose of presenting him the Joseph Warren Medal for his long and distinguished service to the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Wor. Ralph S. Keneely made application to the Board of Masonic Relief for admission to the Masonic Home at Charlton.<br />
His application was approved by the Board in June 1961 and in September 1961 he took up residence there. On several occasions, particularly Past Masters' Nights, Wor. Keneely has returned to Reading for short visits to former associates.<br />
As an indication of the continuing interest generated in Masonry by DeMolay, three Past Master Councilors of Middlesex Chapter were raised to the sublime degree on December 12, 1961. They were: Brothers David B. Cann, Richard II. Curtis and Kenneth B. Woodside.<br />
<br />
On May 5, 1962, a group of officers and members paid a Fraternal visit to Hibernia Lodge No. 3 of St. John, N.B., Canada. Wor. Ernest R. Poor and his line officers presented the Master Mason Degree as exemplified in the Massachusetts jurisdiction. This visit was a part of their 125th Anniversary year.<br />
<br />
Eighteen officers and members of Hibernia Lodge No. 3, under the direction of Wor. C. Hubert McFee, returned the visit on Oct. 6, 1962 and presented the Third Degree according to New Brunswick ritual.<br />
<br />
During the term of Wor. Bernard F. Cann, visits were exchanged with Humane Lodge No. 21 of Rochester, N. H., and Deering Lodge No. 183 of Portland, Maine. The sublime degree was exemplified on each occasion.<br />
<br />
In January, 1964, Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMaxwell Stanley F. Maxwell] was appointed Deputy Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, and Wor. Ernest R. Poor was appointed Grand Standard Bearer. On March 14, 1964, a reception was held at the Congregational Church, Reading, in honor of Rt. Wor. Bro. Maxwell, at which time the Grand Master, M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMOsgood A. Neill Osgood], presented him the Henry Price Medal, denoting "special Masonic recognition."<br />
<br />
Our first "Table Lodge of Instruction" was held on Jan. 30, 1964 at which 105 Brethren were present. The ceremony of the Seven Toasts was explained and offered in traditional style. Since that time, Table Lodge has become a part of Good S.unaritan Lodge tradition.<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Stanley F. Maxwell received the coveted Thirty-Third Degree at the annual meeting of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry in September 1965. He is the only member of our Lodge to achieve this high Masonic honor. At the November 3, 1965 meeting, the Wor. Master presented Rt. Wor. Brother Maxwell a 33° Lapel Pin in recognition of his services to Masonry and Good Samaritan Lodge.<br />
<br />
Perhaps the most unusual meeting of Good Samaritan Lodge in recent years occurred on November 9, 1965, when Wor. H. Sterling French opened the Lodge by candlelight, due to the massive electrical power failure and consequent blackout of the northeastern states. Despite the confusion occasioned by the blackout, nine officers were listed as present. The communication was adjourned to a later date.<br />
<br />
Often talked of plans for a joint meeting between Good Samaritan Lodge and the Knights of Columbus in Reading came to fruition in 1967. In April of that year our initial venture in this area of ecumenism occurred when we met with the Knights of Columbus at their quarters on Sanborn Street. The following year, Good Samaritan Lodge was host to the Knights of Columbus at our quarters. Another joint meeting, this time with wives of members of both organizations, was held at Austin Preparatory School in 1970.<br />
<br />
We are justly proud of our record of donations to the Masonic Blood program during the past several years. The Grand Lodge has recognized our efforts in this program by presenting plaques during each of the last four years. Our record donation was in 1967 when 150 pints of blood were donated by Good Samaritan Lodge.<br />
<br />
In January, 1966, a Committee of three was appointed to study the possibility of obtaining other quarters. At the June 1, 1966 meeting, the Lodge voted to purchase property at 337 Haverhill Street, Reading, at a cost of $26,500 with a view to erecting a new Temple at that location.<br />
<br />
Subsequently, the Reading Masonic Building Association was chartered "to raise funds for, construct, erect and maintain a building or buildings for the purpose of the promotion and furtherance of Freemasonry in Reading."<br />
<br />
An architect was engaged to prepare sketches and plans of a proposed new Temple, and a variance in Zoning Laws was sought for the erection of our new building. After a hearing, the Reading Board of Appeals denied our application for variance.<br />
<br />
Despite this temporary set-back, plans are now being formulated for the purchase of property in an area of town which will not require a zoning variance. Prospects are again bright for the realization of our hope of a new Temple to usher in our second century of Masonic progress in Reading.<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, DECEMBER 1955 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1955-289:''<br />
<br />
''The Origin of Winslow Lewis Lodge''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Samuel R. MacKillop.''<br />
<br />
Winslow Lewis Lodge, organized under a Dispensation granted by The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on December 27, 1855, is fortunate after one hundred years of continuous existence, in having the original records which state in detail the reasons for the founding of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
The first recorded meetings of those who signed the petition for the new Lodge were held in the office of Bro. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLBDean Benjamin Dean] at No. 6 State Street, Boston, on Saturday evenings, December 15 and December 22, 1855. This location on the north side of the street opposite the Old State House is now the site of the" Devonshire Building. Present at one or both of these meetings were Wor. Bros. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJFlint John Flint] and Clement A. Walker, also Bros. Lyman Tucker, Duncan McB. Thaxter, Hubbard W. Swett, Eben F. Gay, Benjamin Dean, Charles Robbins, Jonathan H. Cheney, Rev. John T. Burrill, and James H. Collins, all members of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StJohnB Saint John's] Lodge of Boston.<br />
<br />
In commenting on the purpose of the meetings, Wor. Brother Walker stated that notwithstanding the increased population of the City and the present prosperous condition of the Fraternity, no new Lodge, except Germania, had been instituted in Boston proper for the past fifty years. In fact, the amount of work had become so great that existing Lodges were compelled to meet to a very late hour, and to hold many special meetings, thereby imposing on the time of devoted officers and members. The Grand Master had remarked on these conditions the previous year and recommended the formation of a new Lodge or Lodges. Moreover, many existing Lodges were considered much too large; very few members were acquainted with any considerable number of their Brethren in the same Lodge. As a result the social communion and intercourse which were among the objects of the Institution were wholly lost. <br />
<br />
Hence the purpose of these meetings was to take the initiatory steps for the formation of a new Lodge.<br />
As a result of decisions made at these meetings, twenty-six Master Masons, whose names are listed below, signed the petition for the dispensation, of whom the nineteen marked with an asterisk were members of Saint John's Lodge, Boston, the oldest duly constituted Lodge in America.<br />
<br />
* Clement A. Walker, M.D.* <br />
* Joshua R. Lothrop, M.D.* <br />
* Duncan McB. Thaxter, M.D.* <br />
* Charles W. Walker <br />
* Rev. John T. Burrill* <br />
* William S. Thacher* <br />
* Hubbard W. Swett* <br />
* Benjamin French* <br />
* Moses Kimball* <br />
* Charles A. Davis, M.D. <br />
* Jonathan H. Cheney* <br />
* William K. Bacall <br />
* John M. Moriarty, M.D. <br />
* William S. Bartlett* <br />
* John Flint, M.D.* <br />
* John A. Warren <br />
* Charles Robbins* <br />
* John Amee* <br />
* Benjamin Dean* <br />
* Franklin F. Heard <br />
* Lyman Tucker* <br />
* Joseph Burnett* <br />
* Eben F. Gay* <br />
* John J. Rayner <br />
* James H. Collins* <br />
* Gustavus Jackson*<br />
Of the seven signers who were not members of Saint John's Lodge, Charles W. Walker and John A. Warren were initiated but did not take membership in that Lodge; John M. Moriarty and John J. Rayner took the degrees in, but were not recorded as members of, The [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StAndrew Lodge of Saint Andrew]; William K. Bacall was initiated in and a member of The [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MassachusettsLodge Massachusetts] Lodge. Charles A. Davis took the First and Third Degrees in [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=AncientYork Ancient York] Lodge, Lowell, Massachusetts, but was a member of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StarBethlehem Star of Bethlehem] Lodge, Chelsea. No record of the Masonic affiliation of Franklin F. Heard has been found.<br />
<br />
No explanation is given in the records for the unanimous choice by ballot of "Winslow Lewis" as the name for the new Lodge. Dr. W7inslow Lewis was a distinguished, respected and well-beloved physician in Boston, "the most genial of men," who in 1855 was completing his first year as Grand Master. He was the personal friend of many of the petitioners for the new Lodge, of whom six were also physicians. An article on the "Origin of the Lodge" published in 1857 stated: <br />
<blockquote><br />
"The name of the Lodge was selected because of the strong personal friendship existing between the members of the new Lodge and the Grand Master, added to a high appreciation of his untiring and invaluable labors for the good of the Institution, and his great worth as a good man and a true Mason." <br />
</blockquote><br />
However, in a speech at the Fifteenth Anniversary Celebration of the Lodge in December 1905, Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson Sereno D. Nickerson] stated: <br />
<blockquote><br />
"The name was adopted because he was the Grand Master who granted the dispensation, and also the Grand Master who signed the Charter." This was the opinion of a man who became a member of this Lodge on March 13, 1857, when all the Charter Members were still living, served as Master in 1861-1863, and became Grand Master in December 1871.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
At the meeting on December 22, 1855, Wor. Clement A. Walker was unanimously chosen to be the first Worshipful Master, Bro. Duncan McB. Thaxter, to be the first Senior Warden, and Bro. Benjamin Dean to be the first Junior Warden. On a motion by Wor. Bro. Walker, it was voted that regular meetings of the Lodge be held on the second Friday of each month, which has remained unchanged for a hundred years.<br />
The above-named officers were directed to present the Petition for the Dispensation to the Grand Lodge on the following Thursday, December 27th, and as a result, the Lodge seems to have had a rather curious inception. In accordance with Masonic usage, the consent and approbation of The Lodge of Saint Andrew having been requested and obtained, application for the dispensation was made at the Stated Communication of the Grand Lodge on Thursday, December 27, 1855, Saint John the Evangelist's Day. This was a communication for the installation of the Grand Officers and the celebration of the Feast of Saint John, and not for the transaction of business. Some doubt existed as to whether such an assembly had authority to grant Masonic rights. The Constitutions provided that dispensations for new Lodges might be granted by the Grand Lodge or the Grand Master, but the fact that the Grand<br />
Master, Most Worshipful Winslow Lewis, in whom all had so much confidence, was present and assented to the unanimous vote granting the dispensation, probably corrected all errors, if any existed.<br />
The first regular meeting of Winslow Lewis Lodge under the dispensation was held at seven o'clock on Friday evening, January 11, 1856, in the old Masonic Temple, located at the corner of Tremont Street and Temple Place, the site which is now occupied by R. H. Stearns Co.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was organized by the Master and Wardens previously elected and named in the dispensation. Bro. Jonathan H. Cheney was elected Treasurer, and Bro. Hubbard W. Swett elected Secretary, both unanimously. The regalia used at this and several subsequent meetings was generously loaned by The Lodge of Saint Andrew.<br />
<br />
Applications for the degrees were received from Hall J. How, Alfred Randell and Edward G. Nickerson.<br />
Edward G. Nickerson was initiated an Entered Apprentice on February 8, 1856, received the Fellow Craft and Master Mason Degrees at a special communication on February 25, 1856, and thus became the first candidate to be raised in this Lodge.<br />
<br />
The policy of making this a small Lodge in which every member would be acquainted with all other members evidently had a definite appeal, for in the year under the dispensation, twenty-seven applications for the degrees were received, and work completed on eighteen of the applicants.<br />
After working a year under the dispensation, application was made to the Grand Lodge in December 1856 for a Charter. Of the twenty-six men who signed the petition for the dispensation, only twenty-one signed the petition for the charter to become the Charter Members. Wor. Bro. John Flint and Bro. James H. Collins decided not to take membership in the new Lodge, but to remain as members of Saint John's Lodge. Bros. Joseph Burnett and John J. Rayner took no further part with the Lodge. Prevented by sickness and absence from the city from signing the petition for the Charter, Bro. Gustavus Jackson was<br />
elected on February 27, 1857, a member of the Lodge at the same rate as the Charter Members.<br />
The first meeting under the Charter, which was granted by the Grand Lodge at the annual communication on December 10th, was held on Friday evening, December 12, 1856, when plans were made for the Constitution and Consecration of the new Lodge on Friday evening, December 19th, with a banquet at the American House at the close of the services.<br />
<br />
However, on Monday, December 15th, Galen C. Walker, brother of Wor. Clement A. Walker, Master of the Lodge, and of Charles W. Walker, the Senior Deacon, himself a Mason, while discharging his duty as Deputy Warden of the Massachusetts State Prison, was assaulted and brutally murdered by one of the convicts at the close of religious services in the Chapel of the prison. Because of this calamity, the ceremonies were deferred until the evening of Friday, December 26th, and the banquet cancelled.<br />
The Grand Master, Most Worshipful Winslow Lewis, accompanied by a large and distinguished delegation from the Grand Lodge, performed the ceremonies of Consecration, after which he installed Wor. Clement A. Walker as Master, and presented the Lodge with a beautiful jewel for the present and future presiding officers. At the close of the ceremonies, Dr. Lewis gave a memorable address. This was his last official act as Grand Master.<br />
<br />
In addition to Wor. Bro. Walker as Master, the other principal officers of the Lodge for the first year under the Charter were Senior Warden, Benjamin Dean, Junior Warden, Charles A. Davis, Treasurer, Jonathan H. Cheney, and Secretary, Hubbard W. Swett.<br />
<br />
This chain of circumstances made Saint John's Day particularly memorable to Winslow Lewis Lodge. The Dispensation was granted on Saint John's Day, December 27, 1855. The Charter confirmed the Masonic precedence of the Lodge from that date, and the Lodge was Consecrated on Saint John's Day, December 26, 1856.<br />
<br />
To establish and maintain this as a small Lodge, which was the policy of the founders, the membership was limited to sixty members by the By-Laws adopted under the Charter, and higher fees were specified. Contrary to predictions, the Lodge prospered from the start.<br />
<br />
These were the events of a century ago which we commemorate today in celebrating the One Hundredth Anniversary of the founding of Winslow Lewis Lodge.<br />

==== INSTALLATION OF OFFICERS, DECEMBER 1856 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XVI, No. 4, February 1857, Page 107:''<br />
<br />
This new Lodge was consecrated and its officers installed at the Masonic Temple in this city, on the evening of the 26th Dec. last. The attendance of Brethren was large, and the ceremonies were unusually interesting and effective. After the consecration services, the W. Master of the Lodge, ''Dr. Clement A. Walker'', was installed by the M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Grand Master], whose name the Lodge bears, and who availed himself of the occasion to present to the Lodge, through its Master, a beautiful Jewel, for its present and future presiding officers. The Jewel is of silver, richly chased, with a Diamond in the angle at which it is suspended from the Collar. It was manufactured in London. On investing the Master elect, the Grand Master addressed him as follows :—<br />
<blockquote><br />
I warmly greet you as Master elect of this Lodge, and I congratulate its members, that it commences, what I trust will prove a long and prosperous career, under the presiding influences of so able a Head.<br><br />
<br><br />
''My Brother:'' Though but young in Masonry, you have already concentrated the activities and labors ordinarily acquired only by many years of devotion. With great ability and success you have sustained the chair of the oldest Lodge in these U. States. You are now at the Head of an Encampment which has been raised from torpor to brilliancy ; and now, investing you with the insignia of your office here I doubt not the vivifying influence of your administration will continue. Receive therefore this ''Jewel'', as a slight testimonial of the regards and interest of the donor towards you and your associates. I need not tell you its emblematic relation to duty. It has one addition, a diamond, which monitorially is not laid down; but may it teach you, that the heart should have the purity of the diamond, without its hardness, and all its brightness, without its coldness.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The remainder of the officers were installed by the S. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHeard John T. Heard], who acted on the occasion as Deputy Grand Master. The services were interspersed with appropriate music, and we have rarely seen them more acceptably performed, and this was the general sentiment of all present. At their conclusion, the M. W. Grand Master addressed the new Lodge in his usual happy and effective manner; after which the Grand Lodge retired. We had intended to lay the address before our readers in this connection, but a pressure of other matter obliges us to defer it until our next. We are happy to add, in conclusion, that the Lodge is in the hands of young, active, and devoted Brethren, whose intelligence and social position are a sure guaranty of its future prosperity and usefulness, and that, while in present hands at least, it will not tarnish, by act, of its own, the brightness of the honored name it bears.<br />

===== GRAND MASTER [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis LEWIS]' ADDRESS =====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XVI, No. 5, March 1857, Page 142:''<br />
<br />
Amid the varied embarassments of a varied life, of the many positions in which circumstances have placed me, where there was a demand for readiness of action or of speech, — and there have been many, when, by a species of " floundering," I have escaped, surprised at the survival ,— none has so palled my serenity, or to overcome my self-possession, as the present one. [ have addressed Lodges abroad in bad French, — have ventured, in worse Italian, a speech to the Grand Duke of Tuscany, and even succeeded tolerably with his Holiness Pius IX. But these all were such as befall the many who visit such "lions," or witness the "elephant" here and there. This has a more difficult aspect, producing, W. Master, that unpleasant peculiar action, well known to those illy gifted in speech (not, air, that you have so suffered,) where ''vox haesit faucibus.''<br />
<br />
"To you, Worshipful Master, I address myself, as both my Masonic and professional Brother — as one deservedly high in both relations, with a heart for others' woes, and a skill to minister to the mind diseased. And it would seem that Masonry and Medicine are not deemed incompatible by our Brethren — that there was almost some alliance or connexion between them. It certainly cannot be, that there is any disease in the Order; and, therefore, these are selected to that duty which they are supposed best to understand — the administering to morbid bodies ' Surely not! But the fact is determinate and prominent. Six of the Grand Masters of our venerable Grand Lodge were Physicians. One fell, liberty's first martyr, on Bunker's heights, —three were Presidents of the Massachusetts Medical Society,— one is now an eminent Professor of Surgery in the great school of Louisville, Ky., and the last, is one not likely to fall for any service he may render his country, nor has he any aspirations in that direction! neither has he been, or ever will be, President of our State Medical Society. The only compliment to be paid him is, that he presided over the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts two years, and no harm befell it! Both the Encampments of this city are excellently managed by M. D.'s, both adepts in wielding the lance for health as for chivalry, — and all our Lodges are teeming with the sons of Æsculapius.<br />
<br />
But the power, the extended peculiarity of the connexion, has been demonstrated this evening in the consecration of your new organization. If is chartered under the name of an humble Medical individual, known only as an active Mason, and as" one who cuts society with tolerable success! By his official position, you have been inducted to the privileges of fellowship with the Lodges. Two of your first officers are of the Medical Corps, and among you are included the professional Heads of the House of Correction, the Lunatic Asylum, and of the Quarantine, Deer Island, and United States Marine Hospital. What an array to meet any emergency which may befall a ''Body''! And for those even who may require safe keeping, you have the Master of the Jail! I trust, that this last Brother may find his office a sinecure as regards you all, and that you may never need his official hospitality or shelter! With these and others, true and trusty, you now commence your career as a duly and regularly constituted Lodge; and now is the period for laying the basis on which your superstructure is to rest, to regulate a platform of the requirements you demand from all who are to form your future associates, of those who are to be admitted to your Masonic hearth. "The Spiritualists," to ensure the success of their operations, form a circle, and the efficiency of the manifestations they deem dependent on the " mediums" being consentaneous in their sentiments and feelings. One, not sufficiently imbued, breaks the harmony, and the efforts of the rest are null, ineffective. So compose your Masonic circle, that the electric chain may be>unbroken, that the kindly spark may be transmitted through all, without discord of action or feeling—that the same thrill of affection shall vibrate through every heart, producing that glorious manifestation, a Brotherhood dwelling together in peace and unity. You may not produce "rappings," but every heart will beat more vigorously with pleasure's increased pulsation. You may not receive "communications" from the spirit land, but be assured, all good angels hover over those, who seek the well-being of their fellows—the promotion of diffused happiness.<br />
<br />
How important is the act by which another is added to our Order,—by which the "Mr." is baptised into "Br.," and alas ! how much to be deplored when one is rejected from the privileges to which he may justly be entitled. Consider well what you do with your great power, with your black ball; which may wound not only the sensibilities bat the reputation of a good man. Think before you act.<br />
<br />
In the Lodges in France, and in the French Lodges in this country, whenever a ballot is taken for the solemn purpose of admitting or rejecting, the box is placed on the altar, — resting on the Holy Bible, square and compasses. The Brethren advance singly, for a moment pause, take the ballot, and making the sign of the de-pee, slowly deposit it. The effect of this is both impressive and good. It reminds them, that what they are about to do, is an act requiring calm consideration, an act which involves deep responsibilities. Thus standing alone, in the centre of the Lodge, before the Altar of God, with God's word there placed, with emblems also to remind him of bis high duties, will the Brother not shrink from the exercise of the malevolent passions, and let conscientiousness alone be his sole monitor? I commend this practice to your consideration. It will take a little more time, but its loss will be your gain.<br />
<br />
My Brethren ! — This is the last time that I shall be privileged to address a Lodge as Grand Master, and the last subject, but the first in importance, is the selection of your associates. I charge you look well to, and ponder most seriously on, the effect of every ballot cast for admission. How much evil one black sheep may produce upon a whole flock ! how "one bad voice will put twenty good ones out of tune!" Most seriously do I emphasize on the importance of the severest scrutiny into all the qualifications and peculiarities of those who are to be admitted into the "Household of your Faith."<br />
<br />
There are men, who, in the transactions of life, in their vocation, their business, are fair, just and honorable ; humane and generous at times; but who are endowed with a morbid excitability, a morbid jealousy, imputing wrong to all who may differ from them, and suspecting evil when none was practised or intended. Touch them, however gently, and they explode, making confusion and strife, stirring up the angry passions, painful recriminations and discord ; ever carping at the motives and actions of those whose judgments differ from their own ; scanning with the most acrid severity, and eagerly watching for an expression, aye, even for a look, on which they may eject their venom. Such, gifted with the power of "talk" (and generally such are loud and constant declaimers,) ''vox et praeterea nihil'', will too oft infuse their poison into the minds of the younger, collect around them a coterie, call this perhaps "young America," and all others "old fogies." For them, age, experience, long tried fidelity, are not the respected essentials. They would plough up the old soil without improving it, disturb the feature* of its ancient fields, without any addition to their beauties, e'en though they shroud themselves and all with them, in the dust and smoke of their innovations. Keep such out of your fraternal sanctuary ; but if, unluckily, you receive them, keep them down, if you wish to keep yourselves up. Scan well and probe deeply into the motives of those who would pass your threshold. Look to it, that they are not influenced by expectations of mere personal interest or selfish advance. To Freemasonry they are useless. In them, you receive no accession. Both parties are aggrieved and disappointed. They find not what they sought, nor you what you hoped for. They throw no incense on the altar of the heart. They add no fuel to keep alive the sacred flame of Brotherly Love and Relief.<br />
<br />
They are called to give, when they looked to receive. The real fund of Brotherhood and Friendship of which they are made stockholders, to such is of no account. To them " it don't pay," and the only satisfaction that will accrue to you is, that they will not trouble you long with their attendance; but to you, the regret will attach, that through you, drones have been added to a good hive, bringing no sweets, producing no addition, but a miserable numerical one. Secure to yourselves those who give the promise of becoming useful as members of your Lodge, those who are capable of appreciating, and will devote their minds to its ritual, qualify and instruct themselves to fill the important stations as officers and leaders in the cause. Failing to secure such, how large may be your numbers, but how weak your organization — how ineffective, how lifeless, how totally unimpressive your ceremonials! and consequently how feeble the impress on your initiates. I have seen the most solemn degree of Masonry ''gont through urith'', (that is the proper phrase) and its impress on the recipient fall cold and powerless. The sublime monitions come as it were from a machine, an automaton. " Words that should burn" were uttered by icy lips, from a frozen soul — from a stolid mind. That same degree has been given, where the candidate has evinced by his emotions, his tears, that his heart was reached to its very centre, was penetrated to its keenest and best susceptibilities — and why t Because it was properly administered, by one who understood and felt, and could communicate, with the strong force of action and delivery. This was the touch of "Ithuriel," quickening into life, — the other, the deadening weight of a stupid Boeotian. The one, the inanimate statue, the other, the vital, breathing, warm original. Select for your officers those whose position in society is prominent, well known and esteemed, —not for their worldly wealth, but for the eminence of their characters, for honesty, benevolence, moral worth and intelligence. The world looks to our officers as our "Representative Men," as the exponents of our principles and actions. Show to it, that your jewels are also those who are prized as citizens, as honored members of the general community. Besides character and position in life, knowledge of the work and lectures, there are other requirements, — courtesy, mildness, judgment, grace, should be sought for in your choice. Place no dictator at your head—no ''lex et ego'' autocrat. The car of Masonry needs no such drivers, and 'tis a truism, "from where there is no judgment, that the heaviest judgment comes."<br />
<br />
My Brethren, receive these suggestions from one deeply interested in your welfare and success, crude and disjointed as they are, unpolished and unadorned, — though they may lack mind, the heart is not wanting.<br />
And now, how can I thank you for the great compliment, aye, for the greatest honor of my life? In "storied urn or animated bust," posthumous rewards and praises are given to the departed. But here, while among you, with the chance whether my humble reputation may be sustained or lost, you have founded an institution, and attached to it my name. Be assured, it will be the strongest incentive to preserve the little I possess of what is good, and if that little should be less, yon may still preserve your name without a blush, by using still the same, which, throughout a long, useful life, in the performance of life's highest duties, was attached to an old Mason, my honored Father. My grateful thanks to you all, and though the unpretending name on your banner will not excite your emulation in a cause whose course is onward and upward, may it remind you of one who did his best of what God had favored him, in advancing that Order, whose end is "Peace on earth, good will to men."<br />
<br />
To those who have just commenced their Masonic career, permit me, who have reaped so much of the harvest of my life's happiness from its fertile fields, enjoyed so profusely of its blessings through so long a period, now, as my official duties are almost closed, to declare with gratitude, that to this connexion I am indebted for the best friends, the best social blessings that can accrue to one, without the pale of his own family hearth. So may you all thus find the result with you in your new fraternal relation. May the light now kindled on your altar, shed on your paths the most genial and cheering radiance.<br />
<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Almighty Jehovah!<br><br />
Descend now and fill This Lodge with thy glory,<br><br />
Tour hearts with good will! Preside at your meetings,,br><br />
Assist you to find True pleasure in teaching<br><br />
Good will to mankind."<br />

<br />
The officers of this excellent and prosperous Lodge were installed on the evening of the 14th December, at Freemasons' Hall, in the presence of the wives and daughters and other female friends of the members. The new Master was installed by his immediate predecessor, W. Bro. D. McB. Thaxter, who also installed the Wardens, Treasurer and Secretary. The remainder of the officers were then installed by Bros. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLBDean Benj. Dean] and Clement A. Walker, Past Masters of the Lodge. The ceremonies were handsomely performed, and apparently interested the lady visitors ; as from their peculiar character they were well calculated to do. At the conclusion of them, W. Bro. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson Sereno D. Nickerson], the new Master, in behalf of the Lodge, presented his predecessor with a very beautiful gold Past Master's Jewel; after which an elegant and appropriate address was delivered by the M. W. Brother Dr. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Lewis], G. M., which, as the addresses of our excellent Brother never fail to do, gave the highest satisfaction to all who were privileged to listen to it. The music was furnished by a quartette choir and a part of Gilmore's Band.<br />
<br />
After the ceremonies in the hall were over, the party repaired to the Banqueting Hall, where the " Prince of Caterers," Mr. J. B. Smith, had arranged an entertainment in a style of elegance and good taste which can be equalled only by himself.<br />
<br />
This part of the ceremonies having been satisfactorily disposed of, and the several apartments of the building, including the various halls, and the armories of the Encampments, examined by the fair visitors, an hour or two were pleasantly spent in dancing.<br />
<br />
The occasion was an exceedingly interesting one, and the officers of the Lodge are entitled to great credit for the successful manner in which the whole affair passed off.<br />

<br />
''A Handsome Present.'' Winslow Lewis Lodge of this city has recently presented to Blaney Lodge of Chicago (which lost all its regalia by fire), a rich and elegant outfit, consisting of an entire set of heavy silver Jewels, manufactured by Messrs. Guild & Delano of this city, in their best style of workmanship, together with the necessary working tools, also of solid silver, richly chased, and rods for the Deacons and Stewards of corresponding style; an entire set of rich blue velvet embroidered Collars, and a large folio high cost Bible — the whole making one of the most complete outfits for a Lodge ever manufactured in this country. This Lodge had previously contributed in a very liberal manner to the sufferers by the recent fire. Such acts of liberality are a beautiful illustration of the kindly and fraternal sympathies which bind our fraternity together in a common bond of friendship<br />

<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXXI, No. 8, June 1872, Page 237:''<br />
<br />
A special communication of this fine Lodge was held at the Masonic Temple in this city, on Friday evening the 10th of May, ult. The particular purpose of the meeting was a Fraternal Welcome to Past Grand Master Dr. Winslow Lewis, on his return from a recent trip to Europe. It was a delicate and appropriate compliment to our distinguished Brother, and one in which the hearts and sympathies of all his friends were warmly enlisted. There was one beautiful feature in the arrangements, which so far as we know, is without a precedent in the history of masonry in this country. The Lodge was organized in 1855—6, and has had nine regularly installed Masters, all of whom are still living and are active, zealous, and beloved members of it. Availing themselves of this interesting, if not remarkable circumstance, the Lodge unanimously adopted, as a prominent feature in the festival, the conferring of the third degree, filling all the offices, from the highest to the lowest, with the exception of Secretary and Treasurer, with their Past Masters as follows : —<br />
* W. M. Wor. Bro. C. A. Walker, first Master, 1856-7.<br />
* S. W. R. Wor. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLBDean Benj. Dean], Second Master, 1858-9.<br />
* J. W. Wor. Bro. D. McB. Thaxter, Third Master, i860.<br />
* S. D. M. W. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson S. D. Nickerson] (present Grand Master o( Massachusetts,) Fourth Master, 1861-2-3. <br />
* J. D. Wor. Bro. A. G. Smith, Fifth Master, 1864-5. <br />
* S. S. Wor. Bro. Thomas Sprague, Sixth Master, 1866-7-<br />
* I. S. Wor. Bro [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWChessman W. H. Chessman], Seventh Master, 1868-9.<br />
* Marshal, Wor. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEverett P. L. Everett], Eighth Master, 1870 <br />
* I. S. Wor. Bro. R. M. Field, Ninth Master, 1871-2.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was formally opened by its W. Master, Bro. R. M. Field, in the presence of about three hundred Brethren, including many of the past officers of the Grand Lodge, and other distinguished guests. The introductory address by W. Bro. Field was a neat and appropriate beginning to what was to follow. He closed by introducing the W. Bro. Dr. Clement A. Walker, as the acting Master of the Lodge for the evening. The work then proceeded, and was of course given with great impressiveness and accuracy. It could not well have been otherwise with such a Board of experienced and accomplished officers. The music interspersed through the ceremonies was by a double quartette, and was finely executed.<br />
<br />
At the conclusion of these ceremonies the Lodge was closed, and the members, with the invited guests, repaired to the Banquet Hall, and to a repast spread by the distinguished caterer, Bro. J. B. Smith.<br />
<br />
At the proper time, short speeches were made by the W. Master of the Lodge; by Dr. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Lewis], as the guest of the evening; by Grand Master Nickerson and other Brethren. It is hardly necessary to add that the occasion' was one of peculiar interest, and was highly enjoyed by all who were privileged to participate in it.<br />

==== 25TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION, DECEMBER 1881 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. V, No. 10, January 1882, Page 316:''<br />
<br />
Winslow Lewis Lodge, F. and A. M., celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of its charter (December 10th, 1856,) by a social gathering of its members and their ladies, at Masonic Temple on Saturday evening, date as named. <br />
<br />
An excellent programme was prepared for their entertainment in Corinthian Hall. This consisted of an address, delivered by R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCWoodbury Charles Levi Woodbury], in which he gave a history of the formation and charter of the Lodge, and of the lives and labors of its charter members, also paying a deserved tribute to the memory of the late [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Winslow Lewis], for whom the Lodge, in whose success he always took a lively interest, was named. His signature as M. W. Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts is also attached to the charter of the Lodge. <br />
<br />
Following the address came a varied entertainment of instrumental music by Carter's orchestra, readings by Mrs. Louise H. Ingraham and singing by Mrs. Marie F. Marchington and the Mendelssohn Quartette. Mrs. Ingraham read two scenes from ''Fazio'', and gave a humorous dramatic recitation; Mrs. Marchington sang Mulder's ''Staccato Polka'' and Knapp's ''Bird Carol''; the orchestra gave a selection from ''Lucretia Borgia'', and the quartette Zo-liner's ''Vocal March'', and Koschat's song, ''The Young Lover''. These selections were well performed, and were highly appreciated by the audience. A short time was then spent in visiting the many apartments in the Temple, which were thrown open and brilliantly lighted for inspection, the company finally gathering at the banquet hall, where a fine collation was well served.<br />

==== PAST MASTERS' NIGHT, DECEMBER 1907 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. III, No. 5, February 1908, Page 183:''<br />
<br />
No meeting ever held by Winslow Lewis Lodge of Boston will be longer remembered or with greater interest than that of Friday, December 13. when all of the chairs of its officers were filled by Past Masters of the lodge. The crowning interest of the occasion was in the presence of the brother who was seated in the chair of the Worshipful Master, it being Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson Sereno D. Nickerson], the distinguished Grand Secretary and Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
It was the first time in forty-four years that Brother Nickerson had taken any part in the exemplification of lodge work and it is safe to say that at no time in his younger days was his work watched with deeper interest or he regarded with greater respect than at this time.<br />
<br />
The Past Masters associated with Rrother Nickerson were: G. B. Macomber as Senior Warden; Walter L. Frost as Junior Warden; L. C. Kimball as Treasurer; George T. Coppins as Secretary; George H. Graves as Chaplain; Thomas C. Cummings as Marshal; Daniel J. Strain as Senior Deacon; George W. Tirrell as Junior Deacon; William C. Shillaber as Senior Steward; Abraham Byfield as Junior Steward; Warren F. Gay as Inside Sentinel. Other Past Masters of the lodge present were: George R. McFarlin, C. W. Galloupe and Percy E. Walbridge.<br />
<br />
There was a distinguished assembly of brethren present, including all the Past Masters of Winslow Lewis Lodge except two, and nearly all of the Masters of the lodges in the temple.<br />

<br />
Clement A. Walker was the first master of the lodge and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLBDean Benjamin Dean] followed him.

=== HISTORY ===<br />
<br />
* '''[http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MassachusettsYear1943 1943]''' (Notes on the lodge's founding in the 1943 history of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MorningStar Morning Star] Lodge, 1943-139; see below)<br />
<br />
==== NOTES ON FOUNDING, JANUARY 1943 ====<br />
<br />
''From the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MorningStar Morning Star] lodge history, Page 1943-39:''<br />
<br />
An event of special interest to [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MorningStar Morning Star] Lodge was the constitution of Rose of Sharon Lodge by Most Worshipful Frank L. Simpson on October 20, 1928. I am indebted to Right Worshipful W. H. Smiley Kingsbury and Right Worshipful Harold L. Fenner for the following excerpts from the records of Rose of Sharon Lodge:<br />
<br />
During the Spring of 1927 a small group of Past Masters of Morning Star Lodge, influenced undoubtedly by certain ideas voiced by the administration of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts, and convinced of the soundness of these ideas, frequently discussed, informally, the possibility of the formation of a new Lodge.<br />
<br />
Right Wor. Harold Luther Fenner, D.D.G.M. of the Brookfield 21st Masonic District, was particularly interested in this movement and bent his efforts toward the development of the plan. Associated with him from the first were Right Wor. Herbert P. Bagley, Past Deputy Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, Wor. E. Arthur Denny, Wor. W. H. Smiley Kingsbury, at the time Grand Standard Bearer of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, and Wor. Rolland R. Greenwood.<br />
<br />
On December 6, 1927 a meeting of such Past Masters of Morning Star Lodge as were interested was held, and the choice of Brethren to be Charter Members was limited to members of Morning Star Lodge and Brethren residing in Worcester, but not members of any other Lodge in Worcester.<br />
<br />
The name of the new Lodge, "Rose of Sharon," was suggested by Wor. Walter S. Young, a Past Master of Morning Star Lodge, as Biblically synonymous with the "Bright and Morning Star." The purpose of the new Lodge as resolved in discussion was that it would be in a marked degree the outgrowth of Morning Star Lodge, conceived under, and working for, those ideals for which Morning Star Lodge has ever steadfastly stood, where each man may know his brother well and where there may be the unbroken spirit of unity, fostered by the cement of brotherly love and affection.<br />
<br />
Right Worshipful George D. Robertson was the first Master of Rose of Sharon Lodge and by far the greater number of Charter members were members of Morning Star Lodge.<br />
<br />

<br />
When the Overlook independent living community opened its doors in 2006, an abundance of vibrant, active seniors arrived eager to get involved and make their mark. By successfully revitalizing Rose of Sharon Lodge they have certainly made their presence felt.<br />
<br />
“Since the Overlook is Masonically sponsored, it’s vitally important that, as our seniors grow older, they have direct access to a lodge so they can continue to participate as they always have,” said Bro. Win Bigelow, an independent living resident and a member of Rose of Sharon Lodge since 1952. “Having the lodge on campus affirms that Masons value the wisdom and history their senior brothers contribute.”<br />
<br />
Rose of Sharon has a long history in Central Massachusetts, opening in Worcester as a Saturday night lodge in 1927. To accommodate the lifestyle of brothers with growing families, who found it difficult to get away on a weekend evening, it transformed into a daylight lodge. Over the years, members recognized the need for a lodge at the Masonic Home in Charlton, as older Masons, with limited mobility, could not travel long distances to participate in the meetings and activities of their mother lodges. The decision was made to move Rose of Sharon Lodge to the Charlton campus and welcome all the retired Masons living in the Masonic Home as members.<br />
<br />
By virtue of its location, Rose of Sharon membership became predominantly seniors living in the “rest home” and then residents in what is now the Overlook Masonic Health Center — a combination of the enhanced living and skilled nursing facilities.<br />
<br />
When the independent living population arrived on campus, Bro. Bigelow immediately mobilized an effort to get brothers moving to the Overlook interested in participating in Rose of Sharon Lodge. In conjunction with Christine<br />
Chiasson, Overlook’s program director, he set up a series of presentations to generate interest in the lodge. He targeted not only active Masons, but also “rusty brothers” who had not been involved for years, as well as men who knew little about the brotherhood and wanted to explore becoming Masons.<br />
<br />
“Before the Overlook opened, attendance at Rose of Sharon Lodge meetings was very sparse,” said Bro. Bigelow. “We were happy to get a dozen brothers attending. With the addition of the independent living residents, regular turnout more than doubled; we recently had a lodge meeting with approximately 55 people in attendance.”<br />
<br />
A once dwindling lodge has been revived and is now a wonderful mix of the very best qualities of old and new. Most lodge members (approximately 75%) are residents of the Overlook Life Care Community. Turnout has been so spectacular that the old location in the Overlook Hotel has been replaced by newly refurbished space in what was once the auditorium (above). This beautiful new location serves as the perfect spot for lodge meetings, ceremonies and other functions.<br />
<br />
“I’ll tell you what impacted me significantly—Ernie Goldberg becoming inspired enough to become a Mason even before moving to Overlook because of what he saw on campus,” said Bro. Bigelow. “Since Ernie’s membership, we have had three additional independent living residents become Master Masons and 15 more have affiliated.”<br />
<br />
In a touching act of brotherhood, the more active residents volunteer to transport brethren living in the skilled nursing<br />
center to regular lodge meetings. The revitalization of Rose of Sharon Lodge is evidence of what is possible when new life and energy is combined with the best of what is tried and true. As Overlook resident and recently raised Brother Goldberg said, “The Overlook campus and Rose of Sharon Lodge are living examples of what brotherhood can be.”<br />

When Attorney and Brother Ted Cooledge left Greater Boston to attend the Western New England School of Law. following his attending New England College at Hennicker, NH. Little did he know he was following the sage advice of John B. L. Soule who, in 1851, said "Go West Young Man."

Cooledge has established a law practice in his adopted city and where the light of Freemasonry was reflected upon him.<br />

<br />
==== FEAST OF ST. JOHN, DECEMBER 1991 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1991-197:''<br />
<br />
''Most Worshipful Grand Master, Most Worshipful Past Grand Masters, Grand Lodge Officers, distinguished guests and my brethren all.'' <br />
<br />
This is, indeed, a great privilege and distinct honor to have been appointed Deputy Grand Master for the ensuing year. Now I pledge to you my utmost dedication in the furtherance of the principles of Freemasonry.<br />
<br />
When I first sat down down to contemplate about what I was going to talk about tonight so many thoughts came to mind. But realizing the day has been long and that many of you have great distances to travel, I was therefore determined not to write a long speech covering many Masonic topics. However, my purpose tonight is to talk for a few minutes on the modernization of Freemasonry in Massachusetts to meet the needs of mankind in the 21st Century.<br />
<br />
You may ask how do we modernize our ancient Masonic fraternity. I suggest to you we have been doing just that through our Masonic Awareness Program. One of the main principles of the Masonic Awareness Program is to educate the public as to what we stand for. We can no longer afford to be known as that silent fraternity because, brethren, we have so much to be proud of. Let us open our doors in 1992 so that the world will be educated as to what Freemasonry now stands for.<br />
<br />
Brethren, the lack of education breeds ignorance. Ignorance was the reason for the intense anti-Masonic movement which endangered our very existence in this country. There will always be those who will attack because of the lack of knowledge of what freemasonry truly stands for. Masonic awareness in Massachusetts now encourages all Masons to stand proud and to identify ourselves as Masons in our community, workplace and houses of worship. We stand proud to profess to the world the tenets of our profession, brotherly love, relief and truth.<br />
<br />
Brethren, Masonry in Massachusetts is now experiencing a new lease on life. We have made the turning point in our fraternity because of our Masonic Awareness Program and your dedication in promoting our great fraternity. Look at the increase in membership. We raised more Master Masons in 1990 than we have in each of the past five years, and from all indications the year 1991 should far exceed the year 1990. At this rate we will certainly be ready for the needs of the 21st Century with the necessary qualified members and leaders.<br />
<br />
Our Grand Master has set his designs down on his trestle board to prepare our fraternity for the future. Just look at our Grand Lodge Building with all its beautiful renovations. We certainly can be proud to open our doors and invite the public in.<br />
Brethren, in order to achieve advancement we must change. We must move ahead. We must modernize. This past November when I stood observing the Grand Master conducting the dedication ceremony of our 3.5 million dollar addition to our Masonic Home in Charlton I swelled with pride and had wished that every Mason, his family and his friends could have been there. Brethren, this is most certainly another aspect of our modernization project in order that our facility in Charlton will be prepared for the future.<br />
<br />
During the construction at Charlton I had been proud to discuss this project with many non-Masonic friends. They were amazed we have a Masonic Home for our brethren and their wives. Many, in fact, expressed interest in visiting our Masonic Home. Again, what better way to introduce a non-Mason to masonry? Brethren, our fraternity has so much to offer all mankind.<br />
<br />
Up to this point for some reason we have been not anxious to go out into the world and to show people what we're all about. Consider for just a moment the D.A.R.E. Program in which Massachusetts Masons support our local police departments and schools in teaching children to resist and say no to drugs and alcohol. Consider our many scholarship programs, Masonic blood programs, hospital equipment, the Ronald McDonald House, and the list goes on and goes on and goes on. We are certainly no longer that silent fraternity.<br />
<br />
As you prepare yourself for the 21st Century, I charge that you practice Masonic awareness, not only in your home, but in your community and in your workplace. Brethren, our Grand Master and the Grand Lodge has certainly supplied us with the working tools to prepare us for the 21st Century. Take hold. Move forward with Masonic pride. Never again allow our fraternity to be judged out of ignorance.<br />
Brethren, behold how rapidly our lives are drawing to a close. Today we put forth the tender leaves of hope, and when we think our greatness is still aspiring we fall like autumn leaves to enrich our mother earth. Let Masons in Massachusetts set an example for the world. Do not let a day pass that you don't practice the tenets of our profession: brotherly love, relief and truth.<br />
<br />
Most Worshipful Grand Master, on behalf of all your appointed officers, we thank you for this opportunity to serve you and this Grand Lodge in the ensuing year.<br />
<br />
Brethren, I personally wish each and every one of you a prosperous and healthy Masonic new year. Thank you.<br />
<br />

''By Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCPeck Chauncey E. Peck].''<br />
<br />
It is always an interesting matter to look up and study the early history of an organization which has existed for fifty years. Of course there are other Lodges, and other organizations, which have been doing their good work for a much longer period, but today we members of Newton Lodge feel a certain justifiable pride in the fact that the principles of Freemasonry have been taught and exemplified here in our own home town by the members of Newton Lodge for fifty years. And we trust that those same principles may be taught and carried out here in the years which are to come.<br />
<br />
In the year 1870 there were about twenty Master Masons living in, or near, Wilbraham, and the subject of organizing a Lodge here had been mentioned at different times when some of the Brethren chanced to meet. But the first definite step was taken on October 6, 1870, when eighteen of the members of the Fraternity met at the home of Bro. S. Foskit to consider the question. The following is a copy of the record kept of the meeting, by Bro. Albert S. Newton, who was bookkeeper at the Academy for many years.<br />
<br />
The first Master of Newton Lodge, Rev. Edward Cooke, D.D., was Principal of Wesleyan Academy here for ten years, 1864 to 1874.<br />
<br />
<blockquote><br />
Thursday evening, October 6, 1870. <br><br />
<br><br />
An informal meeting of the Masonic Brethren of Wilbraham and vicinity was held at the house of Bro. S. Foskit for the purpose of an exchange of opinions concerning the feasibility of a Masonic Lodge in this town.<br><br />
<br><br />
The Brethren were invited to meet at the written request of Bro. Albert S. Newton, and responded cheerfully. There were present Bros. Edward Cooke, William Kent, Stebbins Foskit, Asa Boothby, William H, Day, A. Fitzroy Chase, C. G-. Robbins, C. M. Parker, L. J. Potter, D. N. Haskell, G. W. Tupper, W. F. Morgan, J. S. Morgan, J. W. Green, W. M. Green, H. H. Calkins, J. Glover and A. S. Newton. Bro. Cooke was chosen chairman and Bro. Newton secretary.<br><br />
<br><br />
After a pleasant exchange of opinions, in which it was the desire of the Brethren that a Lodge should be formed, provided the location and expense should be favorable, a committee, consisting of Bros. Kent, Foskit, and Cooke, was appointed to ascertain more definitely the location and probable expense of a Lodge-room, and report at the next meeting.<br><br />
<br><br />
Voted to meet at the house of Bro. Cooke on next Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock to hear the report of the committee and take such further action as may be deemed best.<br><br />
<br><br />
Adjourned.<br><br />
ALBERT S. NEWTON, Sec.<br><br />
Approved October 12, 1870.<br />
<br><br />

<br><br />
Met according to adjournment, Secretary's report read and accepted. Committee's report given, stating that the tenement over R. R. Wright & Son's store could be secured and fitted up at a moderate expense for a Lodge Room. A motion made by Bro. Newton, that a Masonic Lodge be established in Wilbraham, was carried unanimously. It was voted that the tenement mentioned by the committee be secured for a Lodge Room, and the same committee were continued in office, with instructions to engage the tenement, and also to ascertain if the building could be purchased, and report at the next meeting. Adjourned to next Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock, at the house of Bro. Foskit.<br><br />
<br><br />
A. S. NEWTON, Sec.<br><br />
Approved October 19, 1870.<br><br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
Wednesday evening, October 19, 1870.<br><br />
<br><br />
Met according to adjournment. Bro. Foskit chosen chairman pro tern. Committee's report given. A motion made by Bro. Bliss that the report be laid upon the table not being carried, it was voted that the report be accepted. The committee were then instructed to secure the tenement over R. R. Wright & Son's store for 5 years, with the privilege of having it for 15 years more, and have the lease made out to that effect. The party occupying the tenement having stated that he would move immediately, Bro. Robbins was requested to move his goods at the Brethren's expense. Voted that at the next meeting the name of the Lodge be selected, and the Worshipful Master, Senior and Junior Wardens be nominated.<br><br />
<br><br />
Adjourned to meet at the place selected for the Lodge Eoom next Wednesday evening at 7 o'clock.<br><br />
<br><br />
A. S. NEWTON, Sec. <br><br />

<br><br />
Wednesday evening, October 26, 1870.<br><br />

Edward Cooke was nominated Worshipful Master; Bro. A. Fitzroy Chase, Senior Warden, and Bro. Job W. Green, Junior Warden.<br><br />
<br><br />
The first Wednesday evening of each month was selected for the regular monthly meetings. Bros. Jones, James Morgan and Kent were chosen as a committee on repairs. Adjourned to meet at Bro. Bliss's house next Wednesday evening at 7 o'clock.<br><br />
<br><br />
A. S. NEWTON, Sec.<br><br />
Approved November 2, 1870.<br><br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Four other meetings were held in November, and at the one on November 16, 1870, the Dispensation having been received, "it was voted to dissolve the meeting." The Lodge was then opened under the name of Newton Lodge. The record is as follows:<br />

<br><br />
Newton Lodge, November 16, 1870. <br><br />
Met at Bro. Cooke's house. The Lodge was opened in due form, when the Dispensation received from the Grand Lodge was read by Bro. Newton. The Dispensation reads as follows:<br><br />
<blockquote><br />
To All to Whom These Presents May Come:<br><br />
<br><br />
Greeting: Whereas a petition has been presented to me by sundry Brethren, to wit: Edward Cooke, Albert S. Newton, Stebbins Foskit, Calvin G. Bobbins, William H. Day, J. W. Green, J. S. Morgan, Edmund Jones, Edwin B. Newell, W. Franklin Morgan, Lurin J. Potter, W. L. Collins, Asa Boothby, A. Fitzroy Chase, Charles M. Parker, Walter M. Green, William Kent, D. A. Atchinson, W. W. Amadon, D. N. Haskell, H. H. Calkins, and William T. Eaton, praying to be congregated into a regular Lodge under the name and title of Newton Lodge, with permission to hold the same in the Town of Wilbraham, in the County of Hampden, and Commonwealth of Massachusetts. And whereas said petitioners have been recommended to me as Master Masons in good standing by the Worshipful Masters, Wardens and Brethren of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Hampden Hampden] and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RoswellLee Roswell Lee] Lodges, holden at Springfield, and of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Thomas Thomas] Lodge, holden at Palmer, in said Commonwealth, and their petition having been countersigned and approved by our District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield10_1867-1882 Tenth Masonic District].<br><br />
<br><br />
Therefore I, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner William Sewall Gardner], Grand Master of the M. W. Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, reposing full confidence in the recommendations aforesaid and in the Masonic integrity and ability of the petitioners, do by virtue of the authority of my office and of ancient Masonic usage, hereby grant this Dispensation authorizing and empowering our trusty and well beloved Brethren aforesaid to form and open a Lodge after the manner of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons and therein to admit and make Freemasons according to the ancient custom and not otherwise. And this Dispensation is to continue in full force until. the Quarterly Communication of our said Grand Lodge, to be holden in the City of Boston in the month of September, A.D. 1871, A.L. 5871, unless sooner revoked by me, or by authority of our said Grand Lodge. And I do hereby appoint Brother Edward Cooke to be the First Master, Brother A. Fitzroy Chase to be the First Senior Warden, and Brother Job W. Green to be the First Junior "Warden of said Lodge, and it shall be the duty of said Master and Wardens and their associates, and they are hereby required to return this Dispensation with a correct transcript of all proceedings had under the authority of the same, together with an attested copy of their By-Laws, to our Grand Lodge aforesaid at the expiration of the time herein specified, for examination and such further action in the premises as shall be deemed wise and proper for the advancement of the general interests of the Craft.<br><br />
<br><br />
Given under our hand, and the seal of our Grand Lodge aforesaid, at Boston this tenth day of November, A.D. 1870, A.L. 5870.<br><br />
<br><br />
WILLIAM SEWALL GARDNER, Grand Master.<br><br />
Attest: [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLSThornton SOLON THORNTON], Grand Secretary.<br><br />
</blockquote><br />
The Master then selected the following officers for the ensuing year or until our annual communication: Treasurer, Bro. S. Foskit; Secretary, Bro. A. S. Newton; Senior Deacon, Bro. C. M. Parker; Junior Deacon, Bro. L. J. Potter; Chaplain, Bro. A. Boothby; Marshal, Bro. W. Kent; Senior Steward, Bro. J. S. Morgan; Junior Steward, Bro. W. H. Day; Tyler, Bro. C. B. Robbing.<br><br />
<br><br />
A committee on By-Laws was chosen, consisting of Bros. Foskit, Newton and Chase. .A committee of 5 was then selected to select and procure the furniture of the Lodge. The committee were Bros. Chase, Foskit, Kent, Collins and Parker. The Treasurer was authorized to pay William Herrick's bill for moving goods. A special communication was appointed for Wednesday evening, November 23, in Binney Hall at 7.30 o'clock. Closed in due form.<br><br />
<br><br />
A. S. NEWTON, Sec.<br><br />
Approved.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Four other meetings were held in Binney Hall ''(One of the buildings of Wesleyan Academy)'' in the months of November and December, and the time was occupied by the Brethren in perfecting themselves in the ritual, preparing for the work they expected soon.<br />
<br />
At the meeting on December 21, 1870, Right Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLSSpooner S. B. Spooner], then the District Deputy Grand Master, with several Brethren from Springfield was present, and the record reads: "Work was exemplified upon the First Degree in Masonry, and under the thorough instruction of Bro. Spooner much information was acquired. It was a rich treat to officers and members."<br />
<br />
On January 4, 1871, Newton Lodge was opened in the new Lodge-room for the first time, and for practically fifty years we have occupied the same quarters. At this meeting six petitions for membership were received. They were the first applications for the degrees in Freemasonry received by Newton Lodge. Four other meetings were held in January, at which the officers were still preparing for work upon the degrees.<br />
<br />
At the meeting Wednesday evening, February 1, 1871, Bro. Joseph Hastings, Jr., was made an Entered Apprentice Mason, he being the first Mason made in Newton Lodge. At the same meeting four other petitions were received, among which was my own, and I was made a Mason in Newton Lodge on March 17, 1871.<br />
<br />
At a special meeting of Newton Lodge held February 8, 1871, an invitation was received from Roswell Lee Lodge, of Springfield, for the members of Newton Lodge to visit them on Saturday evening, February 11. The invitation was accepted, and Bros. Kent and Collins were appointed a committee to make provisions for conveying those who expected to attend. The records do not mention it, but they probably attended. Five meetings were held in February, five in March, and five in April, so it is evident that the Brethren had the work for which they had been so carefully preparing.<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting held May 3, 1871, four petitions were received and bills amounting to about $250.00 were ordered paid. At the meeting on May 24, RW. District Deputy Grand Master [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWSawin William J. Sawin] for the Tenth Masonic District was present, with about forty visitors, and made his official visit. Refreshments were served by the Lodge. Brother Sawin also made a visit to the Lodge on June 2, and "under his able supervision further light was imparted."<br />
<br />
At the meeting on June 7, 1871, it was voted that the committee on music be authorized to purchase an instrument at a price not exceeding $125.00, which was done during the month at that price.<br />
<br />
None of the officers of the Lodge had been installed while working under the Dispensation ''(Officers of Lodges under Dispensation ore never installed in Massachusetts)'' and at the meeting held September 6, 1871, "The Lodge" voted unanimously to have an open installation of officers on the receipt of a Charter, and I insert the following record:<br />
<blockquote><br />
Newton Lodge, Wednesday evening, October 25, 5871. <br><br />
<br><br />
A charter having been granted Newton Lodge, F. & A. M., by the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, and October 25 having been selected for the ceremony of Constitution of Lodge, Dedication of Hall, and Installation of Officers, the Lodge was convened at 3 o'clock p. m. at their Hall for the purpose of Constituting the Lodge and Dedicating the Hall, which was ably performed by D. D. G. M. Sawin, assisted by officers from other Lodges detailed by him for that purpose.<br><br />
<br><br />
After the Grand Lodge had retired, Newton Lodge was closed in due form on the Third Degree in Freemasonry.<br><br />
<br><br />
In the evening the public Installation of Officers took place in Fisk Hall ''(Another of the Academy buildings)'' before a large audience, after which the craft were called from labor to refreshment. Supper was provided in the chapel of the M. E. Church for all who desired, and about 250 participated. Speeches were made by D. D. G. M. Bro. Sawin, by P. Et. W. Bro. Spooner and others, and a pleasant time was enjoyed by all present. During the afternoon and evening the Wilbraham Brass Band, under Bro. Hastings, did escort duty to the Grand Officers. A large delegation of Masons were present from Springfield, Palmer and other places, and everything passed off satisfactorily.<br><br />

</blockquote><br />
<br />
The truncheon holders of the Senior and Junior "Wardens were presented to the Lodge by Bro. A. S. Newton, and Bro. George S. Taylor of Chicopee presented the rod holders of the Stewards, and the thanks of the Lodge were voted to them at the meeting held January 12, 1872. The clock which hangs in the west of our Lodge-room was presented to the Lodge by Bro. Edmund Jones, and the case in which the collars and jewels of the officers are hung was made and presented to the Lodge by your historian. The marble tops of the pedestals of the W. Master, Senior and Junior Wardens were presented to the Lodge by Bro. A. S. Newton, and the thanks of the Lodge was voted him at the meeting held February 7, 1872, and also the thanks of the Lodge for the refreshments provided by him for that evening.<br />
<br />
Forty meetings of Newton Lodge were held in the first year — November 16, 1870, to November 8, 1871. At a special meeting of the Lodge, held on March 22, 1872, under a Dispensation two petitions were received and balloted upon. And at meetings held on March 27 and 29 the three degrees were conferred upon the candidates. The reason for such haste was that those who presented the petitions were about to remove to a distant State.<br />
At the annual meeting of the Lodge, held November 6, 1872, the records show that thirty-three Masons had been initiated since February 1, 1871, when the Lodge first began work upon the degrees, and that the total number of members was then forty-eight, and three others who had not yet received the Master Mason degree, which was a very encouraging increase from the twenty-two charter members with which the Lodge first started.<br />
<br />
At the meeting on November 12, 1873, an invitation was received from Doric Lodge, of Thompsonville, Conn., inviting Newton Lodge to visit them on the evening of November 20 to witness their work, and Bros. Foskit, Warner, and Collins were appointed a committee to make all necessary arrangements. The arrangements were properly made, and about twenty-five of our members attended, and had the pleasure of witnessing the Connecticut work and enjoying the new experience, as well as the refreshments provided at the close, although the long ride home, in horse-drawn vehicles, after midnight, was a trifle tiresome.<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting July 1, 1874, after the usual business had been transacted, an alarm of fire sounded from the church bell, and it was learned that Brother Foskit's barn, quite near by, was on fire. There were more than thirty members present, and most of them were excused at once, and helped very much in preventing the fire from spreading to other buildings. The Lodge was closed with only the traditional number present.<br />
<br />
The first burial service conducted by the Lodge, of which I have found any record, was held Sunday, November 19, 1876, over the remains of our Bro. Edmund Jones, who died November 17. The regular funeral services were held in the Congregational Church, of which he was a member. Then "the procession reformed and proceeded to the Woodland Dell Cemetery, where, in accordance with the request of our Brother, his remains were deposited in the tomb with the usual ceremonies of the order." About eighty Brethren were present, including twenty visitors.<br />
<br />
At a social communication held January 26, 1877, about one hundred and forty-four members, visitors, and ladies were present, and the Worshipful Master gave an address on the history and traditions of Ancient Freemasonry.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was then called to refreshment, "which seemed to be enjoyed by all present. After refreshment we were furnished some very fine music by the Jenksville Quartet.'' kt the annual meeting on November 7, 1877, an invitation was received from the District Deputy Grand Master requesting Newton Lodge to work the third degree at an exemplification to be held at Palmer on the next day. I copy from the record kept by the secretary:<br />
<blockquote><br />
The work and lecture having been exemplified, the Grand Lecturer (W. Bro. Avery) expressed himself as extremely well pleased with the correctness and impressive-ness of the work, saying that he had rarely seen it done as well. The following communication from the District Deputy Grand Master was received: "I cannot help expressing my satisfaction and pride in the manner in which your Lodge exemplified your work at Palmer. I am not given to flattery, but I feel impelled to say this to your credit because I think it is your due."<br><br />
<br><br />
P. T. LITCHFIELD.<br />
</blockquote><br />
So it appears that Newton Lodge was doing good work as far back as 1877.<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting held April 3, 1878, the Lodge voted ''to unite with the ladies of the South Church in the purchase of one hundred plates and cups, and Brothers Bliss and Robbins were appointed a committee to carry the same into effect." At the meeting on January 1, 1879, the committee presented their bill for crockery, amounting to $12.67, which was ordered paid. That crockery was kept at the Church and used in common by the Church and Lodge for several years. But, as that transaction was about forty-one years ago, and now each society has crockery and closets of its own, it is safe to conclude that the united ownership of any of those "plates and cups" has disappeared. I have mentioned this matter because it has been a question in the minds of some whether our Lodge had any interest in the crockery of the South Church Society.<br />
<br />
For some years, about 1880, Newton Lodge was assigned to the Eighteenth District, which included the lodges at Palmer, Monson, Ware, Barre, Warren, and the Brookfields.<br />
<br />
On January 23, 1879, an exemplification was held at Palmer, and Newton Lodge was assigned to work and lecture on the third degree. The Secretary made the following records: "Owing to the brief notice (only three days) which the Lodge had that they were to work the degree, some changes were made among the officers." Worshipful Brother Charles M. Avery, of Chelsea, was the Grand Lecturer who assisted in the work.<br />
<br />
On February 21, 1880, a special meeting was held to attend the funeral of Bro. Job W. Green, who was instantly killed at the paper mills at North Wilbraham on February 19. It is supposed that he was caught on a shaft in the basement and whirled around until his left arm was torn from his body. The regular Masonic Services were held at Grace Chapel, after which the body was conveyed to Woodland Dell Cemetery and deposited in accordance with the last Masonic rites and ceremonies.<br />
<br />
On April 27, 1881, a special communication was held to attend the funeral of Bro. William Kent, and the Lodge escorted the remains to Woodland Dell Cemetery, where the regular Masonic Services were held. Brother Kent was one of the charter members of this Lodge. Forty-six Masons were present at the funeral.<br />
<br />
On August 25, 1881, the Lodge attended the funeral services of Bro. David A. Hoag and conducted the regular Masonic burial services at the grave in Woodland Dell Cemetery.<br />
<br />
At the meeting held February 1, 1882, a committee presented resolutions of regret and sympathy relative to the death of Bro. Myron A. Bliss, who was Worshipful Master of Newton Lodge for the years 1879 and 1880, and a copy of the resolutions was sent to his bereaved family, and also entered upon our records.<br />
<br />
At the meeting held July 4, 1888, a motion was made "That we take the necessary action to transfer Newton Lodge to Ludlow." After some discussion and amendment, the vote was taken and sixteen voted in favor, and twenty-one against it. So the motion was lost. At that time quite a number of the members of Newton Lodge resided in Ludlow, and the subject of moving the Lodge there had been discussed by the members, informally, for some time, and notice that the above motion would be presented to the Lodge was given at the previous regular meeting on June 6.<br />
Nearly three years later, or on March 4, 1891, a petition was presented to the Lodge, signed by eight Master Masons, saying that they were desirous of forming a new Lodge at Ludlow, that they had petitioned the Grand Lodge for a Dispensation, and requesting Newton Lodge to approve their action. This the members of Newton Lodge were willing to do, and glad to do, because, while we knew we should miss the attendance of the Ludlow members and the frequent and pleasant association with them, yet we realized that it was a great inconvenience to them to attend our meetings, so far from their homes, and that they would take more interest in the Fraternity if they could establish a Lodge in their own town. This they were able to do, and the membership of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Brigham Brigham] Lodge had increased to two hundred and twenty-two at the time of the annual report in 1919.<br />
<br />
In 1885, Newton Lodge had a membership of eighty-seven. About twenty-eight received dimits to join Brigham Lodge. Other dimits were granted and some members were suspended until, in 1905, we had but forty-one members. This number has gradually increased until now, when we have seventy-one members.<br />
<br />
On February 22, 1889, by invitation of Hampden Lodge, eighteen members of Newton Lodge attended the Masonic ceremonies connected with the laying of the corner-stone of the present Postoffice in Springfield. And, although it was in the winter time, the day was a fairly comfortable one for that time of the year.<br />
<br />
The original entrance to our Masonic Hall was on the north end of the building, under the shed. But about 1889 it was changed to the present location, which was much more satisfactory to the members.<br />
<br />
A fire- and burglar-proof safe, in which to keep the books and papers of the Lodge, was purchased in 1890 at a cost of $60.80, and has served its purpose for thirty years.<br />
<br />
On July 11, 1905, Past Master James Stephens was killed by falling from the roof of Rich Hall ''(One of the Academy buildings.)'' on to the roof of the west part of the building. The funeral services were conducted at the grave in Woodland Dell Cemetery by Newton Lodge in the afternoon of July 13.<br />
<br />
On November 9, 1903, Secretary William H. Day made the following entry on the records: ''This is the four hundredth page in this book which has been recorded by me, and ends 24 years' services as Secretary. W. H. D." It certainly was a long and creditable service he had rendered, and the members of Newton Lodge appreciated it.<br />
<br />
On several occasions the Lodge has observed the anniversary of St. John the Baptist, and attended church services in different churches on the Sunday nearest to June 24, which is the Anniversary Day.<br />
<br />
On October 27, 1897, Bro. Edward H. Brewer presented a gavel to Newton Lodge, which has been in continual use since that time, and we hope it will answer its purpose for many years longer. Brother Brewer had resided in Dalton, Mass., for several years, and died there October 22, 1911, but was buried with his ancestors in the Adams Cemetery<br />
<br />
in this town. In his will he left a legacy of $200.00 to Newton Lodge, and also a legacy of the same amount to Unity Lodge, of Dalton, both of which were paid by the executor.<br />
<br />
On October 14, 1919, W. Bro. Lurin J. Potter died. He was one of the charter members of Newton Lodge, and lie left us in his will $1000.00, which has been deposited in Springfield Institution for Savings, and the deposit book is in possession of our Treasurer. There are no conditions attached to either of these legacies, but I hope and trust that only the interest will be expended by the Lodge, and that the principal will be kept whole.<br />
<br />
On September 3, 1913, Newton Lodge completed its subscription to the Masonic Home Fund at the rate of $5.00 per member, and has since made several contributions to the Rainy Day Fund for the support of the charity expenses of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
On June 11, 1914, and on July 7, 1915, by invitation of our Worshipful Master, the officers of Brigham Lodge occupied the several stations and conferred the Master Mason degree in our Lodge, and on September 7, 1915, the officers of Newton Lodge had the privilege of performing the same service for Brigham Lodge, and on June 12, 1916, the officers of Newton Lodge conferred the Entered Apprentice Degree in Indian Orchard Lodge. All of which tends to broaden the acquaintance of our members and helps to make us better Masons.<br />
<br />
In 1893 your historian was appointed Grand Lecturer of the Grand Lodge, and began his first year of service with the year 1894, and continued to serve in that office for seventeen years, ending with the year 1910, when lie declined a reappointment because of the Town History work which he had been elected to do. In 1913 he served as Grand Pursuivant, and for the year 1914 was elected and served as Senior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge, so that now Newton Lodge has a permanent member of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
Including charter members, Newton Lodge has had two hundred and sixteen members, with a present membership of seventy-one. Two of the charter members, Herbert H. Calkins and W. Franklin Morgan, are still living in this vicinity, and Edwin B. Newell in Framingham, Mass., and we hope that all of them may be present on this anniversary occasion.<br />
<br />
'It has been an interesting work for me to read over the old record books and gather the items which seem to be of most importance in these first fifty years of the existence of Newton Lodge, and I believe you will all agree with me when I say that we are glad that those early Masons had the inspiration and the courage to start a Masonic Lodge here in Wilbraham. And we all believe that it has been a help and an inspiration to us as we have journeyed along the highway of life. And we hope and trust that those who shall succeed us will have the same help and inspiration.<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, NOVEMBER 1970 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1970-490:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Gilman A. Randall.''<br />
<br />
In the history of Newton Lodge prepared for the Fiftieth Anniversary celebration by Rt. Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCPeck Chauncey E. Peck], the third Master of the Lodge, he comments that "it is an interesting matter to look up and study the early history of an organization which has existed for fifty years." When a century has passed since its founding the matter becomes even more fascinating and your present historian has found it so.<br />
<br />
It is notable that the nature of Wilbraham's population has undergone marked and accelerating changes over the period since the 1920 celebration. It has become increasingly suburban and satellite to an adjacent metropolitan area, as contrasted with its original status as a rural community largely self-contained, and self-supporting through agricultural pursuits, a few local industries, and the normal service needs generated thereby.<br />
<br />
Thus a larger proportion of the population, and hence of the Lodge membership, is now composed of newcomers to the town. Some can even be described as transients who remain in residence only until their corporate employers see fit to transfer them elsewhere. This is neither their fault nor that of Newton Lodge, and we do gain by even a relatively brief association with these Brothers, but we also lose something of the stability of population which marked an earlier era.<br />
Rt. Wor. Bro. Peck's history of 1920 ''(1920 Mass. 385-405)'' gives a full account of the founding of Newton Lodge, and since copies are still extant, as well as the official records of the Lodge, this will not be repeated here, except to list the charter members in order to honor their memory as the founders of our Lodge. As listed in the Dispensation authorizing the formation of a Lodge, granted by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner William Sewall Gardner] at Boston on Nov. 10, 1870, they were:<br />

<br />
The charter was granted as of Nov. 10, 1870 and Oct. 25, 1871 was the date selected for the ceremonies of Constitution of Lodge, Dedication of Hall, and Installation of Officers. The Lodge was convened at 3 p.m. at the Lodge Room over R. R. Wright & Son's Store, where it had been meeting since Jan. 4. 1871.<br />
<br />
A public Installation of Officers was held in the evening in Fisk Hall followed by a supper at the Methodist Church attended by some 250 persons. It is interesting to note the existence of a Wilbraham Brass Band which "did escort duty to the Grand Officers during the afternoon and evening led by Bro. Hastings". Besides the Grand Master and his Suite, large delegations of Masons from Springfield, Palmer and even more distant places were present for the occasion.<br />
We were at first assigned to the Palmer 18th District and there is in the minutes for 1877 a record of Newton Lodge's receiving a special commendation from Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCAvety Charles M. Avery] of Chelsea, Grand Lecturer, who had witnessed an exemplification of the Third Degree at Palmer, Massachusetts, by our Lodge. So we have a long tradition of good ritual work to uphold.<br />
<br />
A major event of the first fifty-year period was a vote taken on July 4, 1888 on a motion to transfer Newton Lodge to Ludlow. Fortunately, for us, the motion was lost by a vote of 21 against to 16 in favor. But a number of the members of<br />
Newton Lodge resided in Ludlow at the time and a split was inevitable. It took place not quite three years later on March 4, 1891, when a petition was presented to the Lodge to approve an application made to Grand Lodge by a number of our members for a dispensation to form a new Lodge in their own town. The Wilbraham members of Newton Lodge, realizing the inconvenience of coming all the way over from Ludlow to attend meetings, regretfully, but willingly gave their approval and thus Brigham Lodge was established in Ludlow. This event, together with losses by death, demit, and suspension, reduced the membership to 41 by 1905. The number had gradually increased to 71 by 1920 and now, in 1970 stands at 230.<br />
<br />
At a Special Communication on Sept. 8, 3920 a general committee was appointed to prepare for the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the constitution of Newton Lodge. It consisted of Brothers Peck, Bolles, F. A. Gurney, and J. P. Cormack. They must have put in a busy two months since the records give an account of a grand celebration beginning at 11 a.m. on Nov. 10, 1920, held at the "South Church", better known to our generation as the old Wilbraham United Church, recently razed. Most Worshipful Arthur D. Prince, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, was present with a Suite of other distinguished Masons, as were many Brethren from this area. (1920 Mass. 383-412) Nearly a half page of the Springfield Union for Thursday morning, November 11, 1920, was devoted to an account of the proceedings, under the "byline" of Harvey L. Gray. Kind things were spoken of our Lodge by the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Grand Master] and other speakers which implied that small Lodges were often better examples of the spirit of Masonry than some of the large city Lodges, and commended Newton Lodge as a powerful influence for good in the local community. We hope this is still true.<br />
<br />
It appears that the Lodge, at about this time, was becoming disenchanted with its meeting place. The quarters apparently were never ideally suited to Lodge use, although our forebears had "made do" with them for fifty years. However, a prospective increase in the rent seems to have prompted the appointment of a committee at the regular communication of Dec. 1, 1920 "to investigate the matter of obtaining a permanent home for the Lodge". Brothers Fred Green, Chauncey Peck, Frank Gurney, Ed. MacDowell and Charles Beebe were the committee.<br />
<br />
A sombre note is struck in the record for April 26, 1921. This was a Special Communication held "for the purpose of attending the funeral of our Brother, Right Worshipful Chauncey Edwin Peck, who passed beyond on Saturday, April 23rd. M. W. Arthur D. Prince, Grand Master, and other representatives of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts were in attendance as well as some fifty local Masons. The Masonic Burial Ritual was performed at the graveside "a most impressive service under cloudless sky" according to the record of Bro. Frank A. Gurney, Secretary. Thus ended the Masonic career of one of our most distinguished brethren, who is still mentioned with respect and affection nearly fifty years later.<br />
<br />
On Nov. 2, 1921, the committee on a permanent home for the Lodge, mentioned above, reported that the building housing the present quarters could be purchased for $3,500, with a down payment of $1,000 and a $2,500 mortgage to be paid off at $50. per year plus interest on the balance. VOTED not to accept this offer, but to seek a one-year lease, with privilege of renewal. Another committee was then appointed to find the approximate cost of a lot and building to be erected by the Lodge.<br />
<br />
It may be inferred from the records during the next year or two that various solutions to the housing dilemma were explored. An important outcome of this activity seems to have been the formation on Feb. 15, 1922 of a corporation under the name of the "Wilbraham Masonic Building Association, Inc.". Named as incorporators in the charter are: Brothers James P. Corrnack, William H. McGuire, Jr., Frederick D. Robbins, Charles C. Stewart, Ernest L. Thompson, Fred W. Greene and Ed. G. MacDowell.<br />
<br />
Sometime during the next year, the owners of the property at Main and Springfield Streets apparently saw fit to reduce their asking price to $3,000. Having just received a gift of $1,000 from the widow of Bro. Chauncey E. Peck, and some lesser donations, the Building Association evidently felt it wise to purchase and renovate the property, which they were able to do by borrowing $1,100 on a mortgage. The Communication of Wednesday, Oct. 3, 1923 was the first meeting held in the newly renovated quarters, the Lodge Room having been redecorated and the store beneath converted into a dining hall and kitchen. This seems to have settled the housing problem for a while, some thirty-five years, in fact. With this problem resolved the Lodge seems to have pursued a relatively even course, with no crises to record.<br />
<br />
The records during this period were the responsibility of Wor. Raymond F. Gurney, who was Master in 1921, and became Secretary on Nov. 20, 1924. Raised in 1913, he is one of our veteran members, holder of the 50-year Medal, and also of the record for length of service as Secretary, his term extended until Oct. 11, 1958, a period of thirty-four years. Actually, it was longer because from the date on which his first signature as Secretary Pro Tern appears, namely Dec. 7, 1921, he evidently served frequently in that capacity until his official installation in 1924. This date marks the end of the term of service for his father, Bro. Frank A. Gurney, who was Secretary for some twenty-one years, beginning in 1903. The elder Brother Gurney was preceded in office by Bro. W. H. Day, one of the founders of Newton Lodge, who terminated 24 years as Secretary on Nov. 9, 1903.<br />
<br />
These long terms of secretarial service lend consistency and continuity to the records, which is a help in research. Your Historian also acknowledges with thanks the personal aid of Bro. Ray Gurney, who has willingly answered questions and has often thrown additional light on various matters. For instance, but for him, we might not be aware that the Secretary's desk in the Lodge Room is the original one in use for nearly a century; the safe in which important Lodge records are kept is the one purchased for $64. in 1890. We also were reminded by him, and found in the minutes, that the rough and perfect ashlars with which the Lodge is furnished were given in 1928 by Bro. Charles G. Pease. The granite came from the quarry at Chester, Massachusetts and they were carved by Thomas R. Greene of that Town.<br />
<br />
In 1938, when it was learned that the Quabbin Reservoir project was about to destroy the Town of Enfield, and with it [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Bethel Bethel] Lodge, the latter kindly offered their furnishings to other Lodges in the area. A delegation from Newton Lodge drove over to Enfield in September, 1938 and brought back a carpet which was used until our new Temple was furnished in 1961. They also acquired the ceremonial chairs for East, West and South, which are still in use. There is a legend that an offer of Bethel Lodge's Jewels was declined, an action later regretted when it was learned that they had been made by Bro. Paul Revere. However, this story has been denied and its truth or falsity is impossible to establish at this distance.<br />
<br />
The minutes over the years record the joy of the initiation of many worthy brothers, followed sooner or later by a sadder notice of their departure. We cannot, of course, give them all mention here. But one loss, in addition to Brother Peck already noted, seems important enough to be of interest. I refer to the passing on Feb. 16, 1938 of Wor. Bro. Fred W. Green, the ninth Master of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Bro. Green had served two terms as Master in 1888 and 1889 and on the night of his retirement from the second term was installed Treasurer, in which office he served for 46 years or until December, 1936, when he asked to be replaced, being then nearly 78 years of age. The minutes record a celebration on the evening of April 5, 1933 when "136 members of the craft assembled at South Church to honor Wor. Bro. Fred W. Green, n fifty-year member of Newton Lodge." After a dinner and a program of musical and dramatic entertainment, he was presented with a Veteran's Medal by Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJMatthew James Matthew], District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield33_1927-2003 Springfield 33rd Masonic District] (to which Newton Lodge had been assigned at a Quarterly Communication of Grand Lodge in December, 1913.)<br />
<br />
Bro. Green had also served the Town for more than thirty years as Selectman and some twenty years as Assessor. His occupation, too, had made him a conspicuous citizen, for beginning in 1879 at the age of twenty, he had driven the stage between the village and the railroad at No. Wilbraham continuously until July 1, 1917, except for four years of service as Postmaster during Cleveland's first administration. He had made five trips a day and it was estimated that he had in the course of his work, driven a distance equal to more than six times around the world. The citi/.ens had presented him a gold watch on July 4, 1917, of which he was very proud. The minutes of a Special Communication on Feb. 18, 1938 state that he was interred in Woodland Dell Cemetery on that day after a Masonic Funeral which followed the regular funeral service at South Church. He had not lived quite long enough to witness the burning of the mortgage dating from 1923 which took place at a ceremony in May, 1938. A letter of congratulations from the Grand Lodge appears in the record.<br />
<br />
The sixtieth anniversary of the Lodge was observed on Nov. 19, 1930, with a party, complete with cake and the proper number of candles, held in connection with the Annual Installation of Officers. The first duty of the newly installed Master was to cut the cake, in which activity he was assisted by the Wardens.<br />
<br />
It appears from the record, that down the years finances have often been a problem for Newton Lodge, as for many others. We have had few wealthy members, and although we have received with gratitude several gifts and bequests of one or two thousands of dollars, which have kept us afloat, these have not freed us from the need to be frugal. For example, a bequest of $2,000 received in January, 1940 from the estate of Wor. Charles C. Beebe had to be used immediately for needed repairs and enlargement of the Lodge Room. Ten years later on Nov. 1, 1950 a committee composed of the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Wor. Brothers Cohn and Holdridge were appointed "to investigate lodge finances and determine the amount of increase in dues needed to keep the Lodge in solvent condition." The following year dues were increased from a total of $8 to a total of $11.<br />
<br />
By 1955, we may infer from the records a fact confirmed by the memory of many present members, to wit; that time was finally taking its toll of the ancient building where the Lodge had met since its inception. It was becoming all too evident that new housing arrangements would have to be made. On Jan. 5, 1955 a committee appointed previously to investigate the possibility of renting other quarters reported that the Grange Hall could be obtained if necessary. Public installations were already being held in the Memorial School Auditorium, and several communications where large turnouts were expected seem to have been held in the Fireplace Room of the old United Church edifice (which was razed in 1962). But beginning in September, 1958, we find the meetings being held regularly in Foskit Memorial Hall. (The Grange) However, a year convinced the Brethren that facilities at the Grange Hall did not meet their needs, and they directed the Building Committee to approach the United Church seeking to rent the so-called Fireplace Room. Evidently they were successful, and the record shows meetings being held there from 1959 until the new Temple on Woodland Dell Road was ready for occupancy in the Spring of 1961.<br />
<br />
The old Wright Store building, having finally been actually condemned, the Building Association had decided to sell the property and build elsewhere. They were encouraged in this project by the gift of a suitable site on Woodland Dell Road from Bro. J. Loring Brooks, who had also given land for the new United Church building and made other valuable and<br />
generous contributions to the Town of Wilbraham, Architectural services were offered by Bro. Paul B. Johnson of Agawam. The last meeting ever held in the old building before it was sold was the communication of January 15, 1958.<br />
<br />
Later in the month, on May 24, 1961, Newton Lodge held its first communication in its new Temple, the occasion being Past Masters' Night. This communication was preceded by a dinner in the old Linked Church Parish House, after which all present picked up their chairs and carried them over to the new Lodge Room.<br />
<br />
The January, 1962 regular communication received as guest Bro. Paul Johnson, who was informed by Bro. Goulding of his election to Honorary Membership in Newton Lodge in recognition of his donation of architectural services in the design and construction of the new Temple. He was also presented a tape recorder.<br />
<br />
On April 11, 1962, a Special Communication was held for the purpose of dedicating the new Masonic Temple. M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEaton Laurence E. Eaton], attended by a Suite of twenty-three distinguished Masons, was received at 8 p.m. and with his Officers conducted a most impressive ceremony. ''(1962 Mass. 83-84)''<br />
<br />
The Lodge has been very happy in its new home. However, the loss of revenue due to the disbanding of the local Eastern Star Chapter, together with rising costs of maintenance and services, once more gives us cause for concern. In 1968, Wor. Bro. Richard H. Tucker proposed a drive for funds with which to retire the £10,000 mortgage which was necessary in order to build the new Temple. It was suggested that every member who could, pledge #75. to be paid over a three year period (normally #25. per year) so that the burning of the mortgage might be accomplished as the final act of celebration of our centennial year. This would make it possible to carry on without a drastic increase in dues. As of this writing many Brothers have responded and we are still hopeful of achieving our goal.<br />
<br />
A personal interest in such matters moves your historian to remark upon the improved musical facilities which the new Temple affords. An electronic organ was purchased in May, 1961 through the efforts of Bro. Philip O. Buddington who served the Lodge faithfully as organist for about eighteen years, from January, 1949 when he was first installed until his departure from town in 1967. He was made an Honorary Member.<br />
<br />
It docs not seem fitting to end this account of Lodge doings without acknowledging service beyond the call of mere membership on the part of several other faithful brothers. Therefore be it noted that Wor. Frederick M. Cohn has served us well as Secretary since Oct. 11, 1958 and we hope he will continue the tradition of his predecessors for long service. Rt. Worshipful Truman E. Robbins our D.D.G.M. in 1966-67 has served Newton Lodge faithfully as Treasurer since Nov. 13, 1963 when he took over the office from Bro. Herman Nieske, who had held the office for three years. No one is likely even to approach the record of service as Treasurer held by Wor. Fred Green, but Wor. Sprague L. Wight put in a respectable twenty-four years in the post, and the Lodge expressed its gratitude at the Communication of Oct. 7, 1959 by a rising vote of thanks.<br />
<br />
Bro. Wight was succeeded for the year 1959-60 by Wor. Gilbert E. Stacey, who has also helped the Lodge raise funds by organizing for a number of years an annual auction. He is presently serving as Chairman of the Masonic Building Association.<br />
<br />
It is also appropriate to record here the Lodge's admiration of the culinary talents of Bro. Richard Goulding, who has acted as Chef for many a fine meal served the Lodge over a number of years past, and especially appreciated after the O.E.S. surrendered its charter in 1968.<br />
<br />
Gifts to the Lodge, not mentioned previously, include a Bible, presented on April 7, 1942 by Wor. Bro. Charles Gardner of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=IndianOrchard Indian Orchard] Lodge to replace the one which had been in use for over SO years; a new ballot box given us by the Eastern Star on April 6, 1960; a new altar, donated by Bro. Harold W. Brown and built by Wor. Truman Robbins, dedicated on Nov. 6, 1963; a beautiful electric clock, installed on the West wall of the Lodge Room, a gift of Bro. Joe Mueller and Mrs. Mueller; and quite recently a set of working tools given in memory of our late Brother Robert C. Godfrey, Jr., purchased from donations to the Lodge in lieu of flowers, amply supplemented by Wor. Edward H. Godfrey. Bro. Robert had served a number of years as Auditor. There have been other gifts, some relatively large and some more modest, but all received gratefully, such as the McGuire Fund, the interest from which is used for charitable purposes, and the many contributions to the building fund. If your historian has omitted specific mention of some of these, it is hoped that the difficulty of tracking down all such information in the Lodge records will be understood.<br />
<br />
Our own centennial observance vividly recalls another historic occasion, not long past, in which our Order took an appropriately active part. This was the Bicentennial of the Town of Wilbraham, celebrated in 1963. Not the least important action of the Lodge in November of that year was the message for the 250th anniversary of the town, sent by the officers to be enclosed with others in a copper "time capsule" which was buried in Crane Park. The message read in part: "To the Residents of Wilbraham in the year of the Twenty-first Century, 2013 A.D.:<br />
<blockquote><br />
The 230 members of Newton Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, extend to you the hand of fellowship in the sincere belief that our links with the past make a strong foundation on which to build for the future . . . Our fervent hope and prayer is that by the time this message is read the world will have learned to live together as brothers and sisters, that the petty quarrels resulting from different ideologies and greed will have been put behind and that the United States of<br />
America and all of its parts are truly united in charity and justice."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
These sentiments are still appropriate and Newton Lodge, if it lives up to its tenets must contribute importantly to the achievement of this goal. We hope that our brethren in the Sesquicentennial year 2020 A.D. will be able to take pride in our part in that achievement.<br />

''A ONE HUNDRED YEAR HISTORY OF NEWTON LODGE'' <br />
<br />
''by Wor. Gilman A. Randall, Master, 1970''<br />
<br />
In the history of Newton Lodge prepared for the Fiftieth Anniversary celebration by Rt. Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCPeck Chauncey E. Peck], (see preceding chapter) the third Master of the Lodge, he comments that. "It is an interesting matter to look up and study the early history of an organization which has existed for fifty years." When a century has passed since its founding, the matter becomes even more fascinating, and your present historian has found it so.<br />
<br />
It is notable that the nature of Wilbraham's population has undergone marked and accelerating changes over the period since the 1920 celebration. It has become increasingly suburban and satellite to an adjacent metropolitan area, as contrasted with its original status as a rural community largely self-contained and self-supporting through agricultural pursuits, a few local industries, and the normal service needs generated thereby.<br />
Thus a larger proportion of the population, and hence of the lodge membership is now composed of newcomers to the town. Some can even be described as transients who remain in residence only until their corporate employers see fit to transfer them elsewhere. This is neither their fault nor that of Newton Lodge, and we do gain by even a relatively brief association with these brothers, but we also lose something of the stability of population which marked an earlier era.<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Peck's history of 1920 gives a full account of the founding of Newton Lodge, and since copies are still extant, as well as the official records of the Lodge, this will not be repeated here, except to list the charter members in order to honor their memory as the founders of our Lodge. As listed in the Dispensation authorizing the formation of a Lodge, granted by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner William Sewall Gardner] at Boston on Nov. 10, 1870, they were: Edward Cooke, Albert S. Newton, Stebbins Foskit, Calvin G. Robbins, William H. Day, J. W. Green, J. S. Morgan, Edmund Jones, Edwin B. Newell, W. Franklin Morgan, Lurin J. Potter, W. L. Collins, Asa Boothby, A. Fitzroy Chase, Charles M. Parker, Walter M. Green, William Kent, D. A. Atchinson, W. W. Amadon, D. N. Haskell, H. Calkins, William T. Eaton.<br />
<br />
The charter was granted as of Nov. 10, 1870, and Oct. 25, 1871, was the date selected for the ceremonies of Constitution of Lodge, Dedication of Hall, and Installation of Officers. The Lodge was convened at 3 PM. at the Lodge Room over R. R. Wright & Son's store, where it had been meeting since Jan. 4, 1871.<br />
<br />
A public Installation of Officers was held in the evening in Fisk Hall followed by a supper at the Methodist Church attended by some 250 persons. It is interesting to note the existence of a Wilbraham Brass Band which "did escort duty to the Grand Officers during the afternoon and evening led by Bro. Hastings." Besides the Grand Master and his suite, large delegations of Masons from Springfield, Palmer, and even more distant places were present for the occasion.<br />
<br />
We were at first assigned to the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAPalmer18_1867-1882 Palmer 18th District], and there is in the minutes for 1877 a record of Newton Lodge's receiving a special commendation from Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCAvery Charles M. Avery] of Chelsea, Grand Lecturer, who had witnessed an exemplification of the Third Degree at Palmer, Mass., by our Lodge So we have a long tradition of good ritual work to uphold.<br />
<br />
A major event of the first fifty year period was a vote taken on July 4, 1888 on a motion to transfer Newton Lodge to Ludlow. Fortunately for us, the motion was lost by a vote of 21 against to 16 in favor. But a number of the members of Newton Lodge resided in Ludlow at the time and a split was inevitable. It took place not quite three years later on March 4, 1891, when a petition was presented to the Lodge to approve an application made to Grand Lodge by a number of our members for a dispensation to form a new lodge in their own town. The Wilbraham members of Newton Lodge, realizing the inconvenience of coming all the way over from Ludlow to attend meetings, regretfully but willingly gave their approval and, thus, Brigham Lodge was established in Ludlow. This event, together with losses by death, demit, and suspension, reduced the membership to 41 by 1905. The number had gradually increased to 71 by 1920, and now, in 1970, stands at 230.<br />
<br />
At a Special Communication on Sept. 8, 1920 a general committee was appointed to prepare for the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the constitution of Newton Lodge. It consisted of Bros. Peck, Bolles, F. A. Gurney, and J. P. Cormack. They must have put in a busy two months, since the records give as account of a grand celebration beginning at 11 a.m. on Nov. 10, 1920, held at the "South Church", better known to our generation as the old Wilbraham United Church, recently razed. Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Arthur D. Prince], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, was present with a suite of other distinguished Masons, as were many brethren from this area. Nearly a half page of the Springfield Union for Thursday morning, November 11, 1920, was devoted to an account of the proceedings, under the "by-line" of Harvey L. Gray. Kind things were spoken of our Lodge by the Grand Master and other speakers which implied that small lodges were often better examples of the spirit of Masonry than some of the large city lodges, and commended Newton Lodge as a powerful influence for good in the local community. We hope this is still true.<br />
<br />
It appears that the Lodge, at about this time, was becoming disenchanted with its meeting place. The quarters apparently were never ideally suited to lodge use, although our forebears had "made do" with them for fifty years. However, a prospective increase in the rent seems to have prompted the appointment of a committee at the regular communication of Dec. 1, 1920 "to investigate the matter of obtaining a permanent home for the Lodge". Bros. Fred Green, Chauncey Peck, Frank Gurney, Ed. Mac Dowell, and Charles Beebe were the committee.<br />
<br />
A sombre note is struck in the record for April 26,1921. This was a special communication held "for the purpose of attending the funeral of our Brother, Right Worshipful Chauncey Edwin Peck, who passed beyond on Saturday, April 23rd. M. W. Arthur D. Prince, Grand Master and other representatives of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts were in attendance as well as some fifty local Masons. The Masonic burial ritual was performed at the grave-side "a most impressive service under cloudless sky" according to the record of Bro. Frank A. Gurney, Secretary. Thus ended the Masonic career of one of our most distinguished brethren, who is still mentioned with respect and affection nearly fifty years later.<br />
<br />
On Nov. 2, 1921, the committee on a permanent home for the Lodge, mentioned above, reported that the building housing the present quarters could be purchased for $3,500, with a down payment of $1,000 and a $2,500 mortgage to be paid off at $50 per year plus interest on the balance. Voted not to accept this offer, but to seek a one-year lease, with privilege of renewal. Another committee was then appointed to find the approximate cost of a lot and building to be erected by the Lodge.<br />
<br />
It may be inferred from the records during the next year or two that various solutions to the housing dilemma were explored. An important outcome of this activity seems to have been the formation on Feb. 15, 1922, of a corporation under the name of the "Wilbraham Masonic Building Association, Inc." Named as incorporators in the charter are James P. Cormack, William H. McGuire, Jr., Frederick D. Robbins, Charles C. Stewart, Ernest L. Thompson, Fred W. Greene and Ed. G. MacDowell.<br />
<br />
Sometime during the next year, the owners of the property at Main and Springfield Streets apparently saw fit to reduce their asking price to $3,000. Having just received a gift of $1,000 from the widow of Bro. Chauncey E. Peck, and some lesser donations, the Building Association evidently felt it wise to purchase and renovate the property, which they were able to do by borrowing $1,100 on a mortgage. The communication of Wednesday, Oct. 3, 1923 was the first meeting held in the newly renovated quarters, the Lodge Room having been redecorated and the store beneath converted into a dining hall and kitchen. This seems to have settled the housing problem for a while, some thirty-five years, in fact. And with this problem, resolved, the lodge seems to have pursued a relatively even course, with no crises to record.<br />
<br />
The records during this period were the responsibility of Wor. Raymond F. Gurney, who was Master in 1921, and became Secretary on Nov. 20, 1924. Raised in 1913, he is one of our veteran members, holder of the 50-year medal, and also of the record for length of service as Secretary, his term extended until Oct. 11, 1958, a period of thirty-four years. Actually it was longer because from the date on which his first signature as Secretary Pro Tern appears, namely Dec. 7, 1921, he evidently served frequently in that capacity until his official installation in 1924. This date marks the end of the term of service for his father, Bro. Frank A. Gurney, who was Secretary for some twenty-one years, begin ning in 1903. The elder Gurney was preceded in office by W. H. Day, one of the founders of Newton Lodge, who terminated 24 years as Secretary on Nov. 9, 1903.<br />
<br />
These long terms of secretarial service lend consistency and continuity to the records, which is a help in research. Your historian also acknowledges with thanks the personal aid of Bro. Ray Gurney, who has willingly answered questions and has often thrown additional light on various matters. For instance, but for him we might not be aware that the secretary's desk in the Lodge Room is the original one in use for nearly a century. The safe in which important lodge records are kept is the one purchased for $64 in 1890. We also were reminded by him, and found in the minutes, that the rough and perfect ashlars with which the Lodge is furnished were given in 1928 by Bro. Charles G. Pease. The granite came from the quarry at Chester, Mass., and they were carved by Thomas R. Greene of that town.<br />
<br />
In 1938, when it was learned that the Quabbin Reservoir project was about to destroy the town of Enfield, and with it Bethel Lodge, the latter kindly offered their furnishings to other lodges in the area. A delegation from Newton Lodge drove over to Enfield in September, 1938, and brought back a carpet which was used until our new temple was furnished in 1961. They also acquired the ceremonial chairs for East, West, and South, which are still in use. There is a legend that an offer of Bethel's Jewels was declined, an action later regretted when it was learned that they had been made by Bro. Paul Revere. However, this story has been denied, and its truth or falsity is impossible to establish at this distance.<br />
<br />
The minutes over the years record the joy of the initiation of many worthy brothers, followed sooner or later by a sadder notice of their departure. We cannot, of course, give them all mention here. But one loss, in addition to Bro. Peck already noted, seems important enough to be of interest. I refer to the passing on Feb. 16, 1938, of Wor. Bro. Fred W. Green, the ninth Master of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Bro. Green had served two terms as Master in 1888 and 1889, and on the night of his retirement from the second term was installed Treasurer, in which office he served for 46 years, or until December, 1936, when he asked to be replaced, being then nearly 78 years of age. The minutes record a celebration on the evening of April 5, 1933, when "136 members of the craft assembled at South Church to honor Wor. Bro. Fred W. Green, a fifty-year member of Newton Lodge." After a dinner and a program of musical and dramatic entertainment, he was presented with a Veteran's Medal by Rt. Wor. James Matthew, Dist. Dep. Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield33_1911-1926 Springfield 33rd Masonic District] (to which Newton Lodge had been assigned at a quarterly communication of Grand Lodge in December, 1913.)<br />
<br />
Bro. Green had also served the town for more than thirty years as Selectman and some twenty years as Assessor. His occupation, too, had made him a conspicuous citizen, for beginning in 1879 at the age of twenty, he had driven the stage between the village and the railroad at No. Wilbraham continuously until July 1, 1917, except for four years of service as Postmaster during Cleveland's first administration. He had made five trips a day, and it was estimated that he had in the course of his work, driven a distance equal to more than six times around the world. The citizens had presented him a gold watch on July 4, 1917, of which he was very proud. The minutes of a special communication on Feb. 18, 1938, state that he was interred in Woodland Dell Cemetery on that day after a Masonic funeral which followed the regular funeral service at South Church. He had not lived quite long enough to witness the burning of the mortgage dating from 1923 which took place at a ceremony in May, 1938. A letter of congratulations from the Grand Lodge appears in the record.<br />
<br />
The sixtieth anniversary of the Lodge was observed on Nov. 19, 1930, with a birthday party, complete with cake and the proper number of candles, held in connection with the Annual Installation of Officers. The first duty of the newly installed Master was to cut the cake, in which activity he was assisted by the Wardens.<br />
<br />
It appears from the records that down the years, finances have often been a problem for Newton Lodge, as for many others. We have had few really wealthy members, and although we have received with gratitude several gifts and bequests of one or two thousands of dollars, which have kept us afloat, these have not freed us from the need to be frugal. For example, a bequest of $2,000 received in January, 1940, from the estate of Wor. Charles C. Beebe had to be used immediately for needed repairs and enlargement of the Lodge Room. Ten years later, on Nov. 1, 1950, a committee composed of the Worshipful Master, Wardens, and Wor. Bros. Cohn and Holdridge were appointed "to investigate lodge finances and determine the amount of increase in dues needed to keep the Lodge in solvent condition." The following year dues were increased from a total of $8 to a total of $11.<br />
<br />
By 1955 we may infer from the records a fact confirmed by the memory of many present members, to wit; that time was finally taking its toll of the ancient building where the Lodge had met since its inception. It was becoming all too evident that new housing arrangements would have to be made. On Jan. 5, 1955, a committee appointed previously to investigate the possibility of renting other quarters reported that the Grange Hall could be obtained, if necessary. Public installations were already being held in the Memorial School Auditorium, and several communications where large turnouts were expected seem to have been held in the Fireplace Room of the old United Church edifice (which was razed in 1962). But beginning in September, 1958, we find the meetings being held regularly in Foskit Memorial Hall (The Grange). However, a year convinced the brethren that facilities at the Grange Hall did not meet their needs, and they directed the Building Committee to approach the United Church seeking to rent the so-called Fireplace Room. Evidently they were successful, and the record shows meetings being held there from 1959 until the new Temple on Woodland Deli Road was ready for occupancy in the Spring of 1961.<br />
<br />
The old Wright Store building, having finally been actually condemned, the Building Association had decided to sell the property and build elsewhere. They were encouraged in this project by the gift of a suitable site on Woodland Dell Road from Bro. J. Loring Brooks, who had also given land for the new United Church building and made other valuable and generous contributions to the Town of Wilbraham. Architectural services were offered by Bro. Paul B. Johnson of Agawam. The last meeting ever held in the old building before it was sold was the communication of January 15, 1958.<br />
Later in the month, on May 24, 1961, Newton Lodge held its first communication in its new temple, the occasion being Past Masters' night. This communication was preceded by a dinner in the old United Church Parish House, after which all present picked up their chairs and carried them over to the new Lodge Room.<br />
<br />
The January, 1962, regular communications received as guest Bro. Paul Johnson, who was informed by Bro. Goulding of his election to Honorary Membership in Newton Lodge in recognition of his donation of architectural services in the design and construction of the new temple. He was also presented a tape recorder.<br />
<br />
On April 11,1962, a special communication was held for the purpose of dedicating the new Masonic Temple. M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEaton Lawrence E. Eaton], attended by<br />
suite of twenty-three distinguished Masons, was received at 8:00 p.m. and with his officers conducted a most impressive ceremony.<br />
<br />
The Lodge has been very happy in its new home. However, the loss of revenue due to the disbanding of the local Eastern Star Chapter, together with rising costs of maintenance and services, once more gives us some cause for concern. In 1968, Wor. Bro. Richard H. Tucker proposed a drive for funds with which to retire the $10,000 mortgage which was necessary in order to build the new temple. It was suggested that every member who could, pledge $75 to be paid over a three year period, (normally $25, per year) so that the burning of the mortgage might be accomplished as the final act of celebration of our centennial year. This would make it possible to carry on without a drastic increase in dues. As of this writing many brothers have responded and we are still hopeful of achieving our goal.<br />
<br />
A personal interest in such matters moves your historian to remark upon the improved musical facilities which the new temple affords. An electronic organ was purchased in May, 1961, through the efforts of Bro. Philip O. Buddington who served the Lodge faithfully as organist for about eighteen years, from January, 1949, when he was first installed until his departure from town in 1967. He was made an Honorary Member.<br />
<br />
It does not seem fitting to end this account of Lodge doing without acknowledging service beyond the call of mere membership on the part of several other faithful brothers. Therefore, be it noted that Wor. Frederick M. Cohn has served us well as Secretary since Oct. 11, 1958, and we hope he will continue the tradition of his predecessors for long service. Rt. Worshipful Truman E. Robbins, our D. D. G. M. in 1966-67, has served Newton Lodge faithfully as Treasurer since Nov. 13, 1963, when he took over the office from Bro. Herman Nieske, who had held the office for three years. No one is likely even to approach the record of service as Treasurer held by Wor. Fred Green, but Wor. Sprague L. Wight put in a respectable twenty-four years in the post, and the Lodge expressed its gratitude at the communication of Oct. 7, 1959 by a rising vote of thanks.<br />
<br />
Bro. Wight was succeeded for the year 1959-60 by Wor. Gilbert E. Stacey, who has also helped the lodge raise funds by organizing for a number of years an annual auction. He is presently serving as Chairman of the Masonic Building Association.<br />
<br />
It is also appropriate to record here the Lodge's admiration of the culinary talents of Bro. Richard Goulding, who has acted as Chef for many a fine meal served the Lodge over a number of years past, and especially appreciated after the O. E. S. surrendered its charter in 1968.<br />
<br />
Gifts to the lodge, not mentioned above, include a Bible, presented on April 7,1942 by Wor. Bro. Charles Gardner of Indian Orchard Lodge to replace<br />
the one which had been in use for over 50 years; a new ballot box given us by the Eastern Star on April 6, 1960; a new altar, donated by Bro. Harold W. Brown and built by Wor. Truman Robbins, dedicated on Nov. 6, 1963;a beautiful electric clock, installed on the West wall of the Lodge Room, a gift of Bro. Joe Mueller and Mrs. Mueller; and, quite recently, a set of working tools given in memory of our late Brother Robert C. Godfrey, Jr., purchased from donations to the lodge in lieu of flowers, amply supplemented by Worshipful Edward H. Godfrey. Bro. Robert had served a number of years as Auditor. There have been other gifts, some relatively large and some more modest, but all received gratefully, such as the McGuire Fund, the interest from which is used for charitable purposes, and the many contributions to the building fund. If your historian has omitted specific mention of some of these, it is hoped that the difficulty of tracking down all such information in the Lodge records will be understood.<br />
<br />
Our own centennial observance vividly recalls another historic occasion not long past, in which our order took an appropriately active part. This was the Bicentennial of the Town of Wilbraham, celebrated in 1963. Not the least important action of the lodge in November of that year was the message for the 250th anniversary of the town, sent by the officers to be enclosed with others in a copper "time capsule" which was buried in Crane Park.

''THE PAST 25 YEARS OF NEWTON LODGE''<br />
<br />
Since the granting of our Charter on November 10, 1870, 774 men have signed our by-laws and become members of Newton Lodge. On August 31, 1995, our membership totaled 212, eleven of whom have been awarded the Grand Lodge 50-Year Veterans medal and certificate. Of interest is the fact that since 1970, the last 25 years, there have been 137 members that signed the By-Laws. Of that number, 62 have signed in the last five years! This is due in large part to the "Masonic Awareness Program" which will be covered shortly.<br />
<br />
For a complete historic background of Newton Lodge, reference is made to the "One Hundred Years of History of Newton Lodge" which was so ably prepared by the late Wor. Gilman A. Randall for our 100th anniversary observance on November 6, 1970 [a copy is included in this program]. Newton Lodge has always been a staunch supporter of the Grand Lodge Blood program which ensures that our members and families will always have blood available should the occasion arise. Since 1952, the Lodge has consistently received the Grand Lodge Citation for exceeding its annual quota. This program is under the able leadership of Bro. Alexander MacKenzie and Bro. A. C. Bud Johnson.<br />
<br />
It is worth repeating that on May 24, 1961, Newton Lodge held its first communication in the new Masonic Temple. In this connection the mortgage incurred was burned on Nov. 12, 1971, and the Lodge is free of debt.<br />
<br />
In 1978, the Ralph Wesley Bennett Memorial Scholarship Fund was established to provide educational assistance to local high school seniors.<br />
In October 1980, the four antique deacons benches which were in the original lodge room at the corner of Springfield and Main Streets were refinished and placed in service (courtesy of Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLTCooledge Theodore E. Cooledge], Wor. Edward H. Godfrey, and Wor. Frederick M. Cohn).<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Truman E. Robbins was the greatest benefactor of Newton Lodge. Truman was Master of the Lodge in 1960 and subsequently served as District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield33_1927-2003 Springfield 33rd Masonic District]. On May 14, 1980, Rt. Wor. Robbins was awarded the Joseph Warren Medal for Distinguished Service by the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. His ritual was perfection and he was always ready to help. A skilled pattern maker and wood craftsman, Truman made an exact replica of the antique secretary's desk in our Lodge. This replica now serves as the Treasurer's desk.<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Truman also crafted two reproductions of the antique candle stand which had been presented to the Lodge by Wor. Walter Maynard. The original candle stand is in the East and the reproductions are at the Warden's stations.<br />
<br />
The Altar is Truman's work of art and will always remind us of him. Rt. Wor. Robbins passed to the celestial Lodge above on October 1, 1981. He bequeathed a substantial fund to the Lodge which was held in the Truman E. Robbins Memorial Fund for ten years in accordance with his wishes. A memorial plaque in his memory is mounted on the north wall of the Lodge room.<br />
<br />
Wor. Frederick M. Cohn sat as Master of the Lodge in 1949. During his tenure, seven members signed the By-Laws. He served with meticulous distinction as Secretary of the Lodge from October, 1956, to October, 1984, a total of 28 years! He has been instrumental in assembling this history.<br />
In March, 1993, under the leadership of Rt. Wor. Edwin H. Carpenter, Newton Lodge joined the rest of the world by installing a computer system. The computer is linked to the Grand Lodge computer and also the computers of the Master, Senior Warden, Treasurer and Secretary. This is an invaluable asset which will enable us to serve our brethren more quickly and efficiently.<br />
<br />
In September, 1991, the Lodge commenced the publication of the "Newton Hourglass". This monthly publication is produced and edited by Rt. Wor. Edwin H. Carpenter. Wor. Philmore H. Smith, Master of the Lodge, is co-editor of the publication and monthly faxes the current issue to Chevalier-Ramsey Lodge #4 in Brussels, Belgium, where it is displayed and "laid on the record". It carries not only news and articles relating principally to Newton Lodge and the Springfield 33rd Masonic District but also articles of general Masonic interest. Copies of the newsletter are retained in the archives of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts Library with the current issue being on display. The November 1995 issue will be enclosed in the Time Capsule which will be sealed on November 10, 1995. The publication has been very well received and is now firmly established as part of our continuing educational program.<br />
<br />
In October, 1992, Newton Lodge, under the direction of Wor. Curtis N. Knowles, became a strong supporter of the D. A. R. E. Program (Drug Abuse Resistance Education). Bro. Dennis J. LaPlante, a member of Newton Lodge, is the D. A. R. E. Officer for the Wilbraham Police Department, who teaches and administers the program for the eight local schools.<br />
<br />
Wor. Gordon S. Fountain, Master in 1993, had a remarkable year. During his tenure, twenty three (23) members signed the By-Laws! Significantly, Gordie appointed Bro. David Demos as the first chairman of the "D.A.R.E. Classic Golf Tournament" which has become a notable local event! (See below)<br />
The D. A. R. E. Classic Golf Tournament has resulted in substantial funds to support D. A. R. E. and related programs for the young people of our community. This year Bro. Dave Demos was joined by Bro. Joseph Mastrangelo who served as co-chaiman and helped immeasurably in making this year a banner one! These tireless, talented, and dedicated gentlemen have seen the returns nearly triple, and the local D.A.R.E program is now fully funded as well as several other related programs. Massachusetts has become the leading state in the country and sets D.A.R.E. standards for others to follow.<br />
<br />
The Awareness Program of the Lodge produces several quality community events that have raised the visibility of Masonry immensely. In addition to the D. A. R. E. program, the Won Ralph Bennett Scholarship Fund is now augmented by a "Classic Wild Game Supper"; the Masonic Building Association produces the "Classic Country Steer & Pig Roast", and soon to be started "Classic Yankee Breakfasts" are just a few of the many endeavors.<br />
<br />
The Lodge continues to conduct fund raising activities for the benefit of D. A. R. E., the Teen Center, the Bennett Scholarship Fund, Fountain Park (formerly the Pheasant Farm), the Spec Pond rehabilitation, and other worthy causes. The leaders and brethren deserve great credit for their support of these worthy activities. In addition to Rt. Wor. Truman Robbins, several Newton Lodge members have served as officers of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and otherwise distinguished themselves.<br />
* Most Wor. ''[http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDarling Edgar W. Darling]'' served with distinction as Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts in 1990, 1991, and 1992. The success of the "Awareness Program" heretofore mentioned was, in great part, attributable to his staunch leadership. By "opening the doors" of the Lodges throughout the Commonwealth, Freemasonry is again on the rise in membership. The Lodge's efforts to promote the general good of society has been duly noted, and the general public is dramatically "aware" of the Masons in their midst. The Lodge has instituted a Meritorious Service Award to be presented to qualified Lodge Members in Edgar's name!<br />

Darling on the evening that he raised his son, Bro. Ronald A. Shepard, to the Third Degree..

He was awarded the Joseph Warren Medal in 1995. Leslie was four (4) times Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Belcher Belcher] Lodge. He is Treasurer of the Lodge and chairman of the 125th Anniversary Committee!<br />

* Wor. ''William W. Schubach'' also served twice as Master of the Lodge in 1968 and 1991. Bill raised his three sons, Bro. David M. Schubach, Bro. Richard M. Schubach, and Bro. William A. Schubach to the Degree of Master Mason. A quite uncommon honor!<br />

Bready, grandfather of Richard, Jr., was Master of the Lodge in 1953. There are currently seven members of the Bready family that are active members of the Lodge!<br />
* Wor. ''Richard E. Hatcher'', Master of the Lodge in 1979, has this year retired as Lodge Organist after a full 15 years. His pre-opening renditions of "old favorites" will particularly be remembered as well as his gentle good humor.<br />
* Bro. ''William G. True'' has given sterling service as Lodge Auditor for many years. He is a holder of the Grand Lodge Veterans Medal.<br />
* Bro. ''Frederick M. Harwood'' was the first recipient of the Most Wor. Edgar W. Darling Award for Meritorious Service to the Lodge and the community. He is currently the TROWEL representative of the Lodge.<br />
* Bro. ''Byron I. "BIM" Musselman'' has performed as the Second Gate Craftsman for 37 years! His marvelous speaking voice and calm demeanor add greatly to this significant ritualistic part. He is also a holder of the Most Wor. Edgar W. Darling Award for his many years of exemplary service.<br />
* Bro. ''J. Willard Pickett'' has performed the highly significant part of "Third Gate" for many years. His mellow voice is calm, yet decisive, and his rendition retains the strict attention of the Candidates! He will initiate or join in on any "Barbershop Quartet" type of song.<br />
The preceding are highlights of the Lodge and are not intended to, nor can they, diminish the sterling efforts by all the members and Past Masters. Their love and devotion toward the welfare of the Lodge, their Brethren, and the community has been notable in every aspect of their services!<br />
As we face the twenty-first century, we must put our trust in God and pray that Masonry will continue to flourish and that our basic tenets-Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth-will be more widely recognized as forces for good, and accordingly, result in a happier, safer, and more peaceful world.<br />

When Attorney and Brother Ted Cooledge left Greater Boston to attend the Western New England School of Law. following his attending New England College at Hennicker, NH. Little did he know he was following the sage advice of John B. L. Soule who, in 1851, said "Go West Young Man." It took Horace Greeley, founder of the ''New York Tribune'', to make that quotation famous, but where Greeley had a special aversion to secret societies. Bro. Cooledge has established a law practice in his adopted city and where the light of Freemasonry was reflected upon him.<br />

Worshipful David Stone of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=IndianOrchard Indian Orchard] Lodge did the rest.

<br />
==== FEAST OF ST. JOHN, DECEMBER 1991 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1991-197:''<br />
<br />
''Most Worshipful Grand Master, Most Worshipful Past Grand Masters, Grand Lodge Officers, distinguished guests and my brethren all.'' <br />
<br />
This is, indeed, a great privilege and distinct honor to have been appointed Deputy Grand Master for the ensuing year. Now I pledge to you my utmost dedication in the furtherance of the principles of Freemasonry.<br />
<br />
When I first sat down down to contemplate about what I was going to talk about tonight so many thoughts came to mind. But realizing the day has been long and that many of you have great distances to travel, I was therefore determined not to write a long speech covering many Masonic topics. However, my purpose tonight is to talk for a few minutes on the modernization of Freemasonry in Massachusetts to meet the needs of mankind in the 21st Century.<br />
<br />
You may ask how do we modernize our ancient Masonic fraternity. I suggest to you we have been doing just that through our Masonic Awareness Program. One of the main principles of the Masonic Awareness Program is to educate the public as to what we stand for. We can no longer afford to be known as that silent fraternity because, brethren, we have so much to be proud of. Let us open our doors in 1992 so that the world will be educated as to what Freemasonry now stands for.<br />
<br />
Brethren, the lack of education breeds ignorance. Ignorance was the reason for the intense anti-Masonic movement which endangered our very existence in this country. There will always be those who will attack because of the lack of knowledge of what freemasonry truly stands for. Masonic awareness in Massachusetts now encourages all Masons to stand proud and to identify ourselves as Masons in our community, workplace and houses of worship. We stand proud to profess to the world the tenets of our profession, brotherly love, relief and truth.<br />
<br />
Brethren, Masonry in Massachusetts is now experiencing a new lease on life. We have made the turning point in our fraternity because of our Masonic Awareness Program and your dedication in promoting our great fraternity. Look at the increase in membership. We raised more Master Masons in 1990 than we have in each of the past five years, and from all indications the year 1991 should far exceed the year 1990. At this rate we will certainly be ready for the needs of the 21st Century with the necessary qualified members and leaders.<br />
<br />
Our Grand Master has set his designs down on his trestle board to prepare our fraternity for the future. Just look at our Grand Lodge Building with all its beautiful renovations. We certainly can be proud to open our doors and invite the public in.<br />
Brethren, in order to achieve advancement we must change. We must move ahead. We must modernize. This past November when I stood observing the Grand Master conducting the dedication ceremony of our 3.5 million dollar addition to our Masonic Home in Charlton I swelled with pride and had wished that every Mason, his family and his friends could have been there. Brethren, this is most certainly another aspect of our modernization project in order that our facility in Charlton will be prepared for the future.<br />
<br />
During the construction at Charlton I had been proud to discuss this project with many non-Masonic friends. They were amazed we have a Masonic Home for our brethren and their wives. Many, in fact, expressed interest in visiting our Masonic Home. Again, what better way to introduce a non-Mason to masonry? Brethren, our fraternity has so much to offer all mankind.<br />
<br />
Up to this point for some reason we have been not anxious to go out into the world and to show people what we're all about. Consider for just a moment the D.A.R.E. Program in which Massachusetts Masons support our local police departments and schools in teaching children to resist and say no to drugs and alcohol. Consider our many scholarship programs, Masonic blood programs, hospital equipment, the Ronald McDonald House, and the list goes on and goes on and goes on. We are certainly no longer that silent fraternity.<br />
<br />
As you prepare yourself for the 21st Century, I charge that you practice Masonic awareness, not only in your home, but in your community and in your workplace. Brethren, our Grand Master and the Grand Lodge has certainly supplied us with the working tools to prepare us for the 21st Century. Take hold. Move forward with Masonic pride. Never again allow our fraternity to be judged out of ignorance.<br />
Brethren, behold how rapidly our lives are drawing to a close. Today we put forth the tender leaves of hope, and when we think our greatness is still aspiring we fall like autumn leaves to enrich our mother earth. Let Masons in Massachusetts set an example for the world. Do not let a day pass that you don't practice the tenets of our profession: brotherly love, relief and truth.<br />
<br />
Most Worshipful Grand Master, on behalf of all your appointed officers, we thank you for this opportunity to serve you and this Grand Lodge in the ensuing year.<br />
<br />
Brethren, I personally wish each and every one of you a prosperous and healthy Masonic new year. Thank you.<br />

==== 125TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, JUNE 1923 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1923-292:''<br />
<br />
''By R. W. William H. Hewins.''<br />
<br />
On a petition to the M.W. Grand Lodge, and signed by Frank Wicks, Joseph Webb, Robinson Dimmick, Isaac Parker, Prince Hatch, Davis Swift, John P. Caswell, Hugh Donaldson, Timothy Crocker, Richard Bunker, James Wing and Lewis Parker, praying that a charter be granted to constitute a Masonic Lodge in Falmouth, to be known as Marine Lodge, A. F. & A. M. ''(Note: The Swift and Donaldson families have been represented in the Lodge for four successive generations.)''<br />
<br />
The petition was duly presented and was granted on the date of March 13, 1798. It was signed by the following Grand Officers:<br />
[http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBartlett Josiah Bartlett], M. W. Grand Master; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDunn Samuel Dunn], R. W. Deputy Grand Master; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJLaughton Joseph Laughton], R. W. Senior Grand Warden; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWLittle William Little], R. W. Junior Grand Warden; Daniel Oliver, Grand Secretary.<br />
<br />
The first meeting, dated March 26, 1798, was at the house of Stephen Swift, being the old house next east of the Town Farm. At this time the following officers were chosen:<br />
* Frank Wicks, Worshipful Master<br />
* Hugh Donaldson, Senior Warden<br />
* Richard Bunker, Junior Warden<br />
* Frank Wicks, Treasurer pro tem.<br />
* Hugh Donaldson, Secretary pro tem.<br />
* James Wing, Tyler.<br />
During this meeting the following vote was passed: "Voted that every visiting brother should be allowed to make one visit free of expenses, but every other visit he should pay 25 cents, unless otherwise determined by vote.'' They continued to meet at Brother Swift's until sickness in his family compelled them to meet elsewhere.<br />
<br />
They next met at the house of Samuel Shiverick, in the southwest upper chamber. Brother Shiverick's house is the old house next west to the Post Office in Falmouth Village.<br />
<br />
They continued to meet in dwelling houses in various parts of the village until the new building was completed in 1801.<br />
<br />
A meeting of the subscribers for the new building was held September, 1798. <br />
<blockquote><br />
"We the subscribers jointly and severally agree and engage to pay the sums annexed to our names by us subscribed into the hands of the committee who may be appointed to carry on the building of a School-house where the old one now stands.<br><br />
"Which is divided into eighty shares, in company with the Masonic Society if they choose to join us, also the town so far as they may agree for the benefit of a town house.<br><br />
''A list of subscribers for building a School House in the town of Falmouth and what number of shares each one has and money paid one whole share being $7.42.''<br />

Eighty Shares, Total $592.80. The Proprietors of the Schoolhouse met at the house of Shubael Hatch, Innholder in Falmouth, on Tuesday, October 1, 1799, and passed the following votes:<br />
* "''Voted'', that the Proprietors of the Schoolhouse and the Masonic Society complete the outside of the building and lay the floors equally between them.<br />
* ''"Voted'', One half of the money be paid down, and the other half when the outside of said house is completed.''<br />
** Elijah Swift's proposal being the lowest he was awarded the contract, it being for $675.<br />
* ''"Voted'', that Capt. Timothy Crocker receive the money and pay it over to Elijah Swift, and sign the agreement with the said Swift for completing the building agreeable to contract."<br />
At a Proprietors' meeting, held at the Inn of Shubael Hatch, August 19, 1800, it was voted that the sum of $15 that the old building sold for, be paid to Elijah Swift for two feet in addition to the width of the new Schoolhouse. On completion of the new building the Town occupied the lower rooms for school purposes.<br />
<br />
The Lodge occupied the upper room, and continued to occupy it until about 1810, and then for some reason not given, they returned their Charter to the Grand Lodge, where it remained until 1820. ''("A communication was received from the officers and members of Marine Lodge, at Falmouth, representing the situation of that Lodge; requesting leave to return their Charter to the parent Grand Lodge, and offering as reason for so doing, the impoverished state of their finances, the absence of many of their Brethren, and other inabilities which prevented their meeting at present and discharging their regular dues. The members of Marine Lodge were mostly seafaring men." — F. W. H. September 10, 1810; I Mass. 442.''<br />
<br />
Then it was again returned to the Lodge and they continued to meet until about 1832 or 1833. Then the Charter, working tools, and jewels were again returned to the Grand Lodge and remained there until 1857.<br />
<br />
After giving up their Charter the building was sold to Thomas Swift who rented the lower rooms for store purposes, and the upper hall for a school room. It was so occupied until a new Schoolhouse was built.<br />
<br />
In 1857 a petition was drawn up by the old members of the Lodge and forwarded to the Grand Lodge asking that their Charter and records be returned and permission given to reorganize once more. The petition was granted and a new Lodge was formed under the old Charter. The first meeting of the Lodge after the Charter had been returned was held at the house of Bro. Albert Nye, opened on the first degree. His house was the one now owned by Harry V. Lawrence. Applications having been received from James T. Dillingham, Thomas L. Swift and Solomon II. Baxter, wishing to become members, they were balloted for and accepted, and came forward and received the Entered Apprentice degree.<br />
<br />
A dispensation having been granted for sufficient reasons by the District Deputy Grand Master, who was present, the above named persons were Passed and Raised to the sublime degree of Master Masons. The officers chosen were regularly installed by the District Deputy Grand Master; George W. Swift, Worshipful Master; Benj. F. Tucker, Senior Warden; George W. Donaldson, Junior Warden; William Hewins, Treasurer; Frederick Davis, Secretary; James P. Garvin, Senior Deacon; Thomas L. Swift, Junior Deacon; Solomon H. Baxter, Tyler. Visiting Brothers present: B. S. Pope, District Deputy Grand Master; George Marston; Major S. B. Phinney of Barnstable; Silas J. Bourne; Ferdinand G. Kelley; Bro. Childs; Bro. Hallett; Bro. Bearse; Bro. Simmons; Bro. Baker; all from James Otis Lodge, Barnstable.<br />
<br />
Brother Nye was very active in getting the Charter returned and after the first few meetings at his house the Lodge hired and fitted the rooms over what is now the Falmouth Coal Office. They remained there a few years, when they bought this present building, the same that they had occupied in 1801.<br />
<br />
Marine Lodge has now the original Charter granted by the Grand Lodge, dated 1798.<br />
* It owns the building it now occupies.<br />
* It has a Charity Fund of a few thousand dollars.<br />
* It has one hundred and eighty-six members.<br />
* It has sixteen Past Masters, and two Past District Deputy Grand Masters living at the present time.<br />

<br />
In 1856 a petition was drawn up by the old members of the Lodge and forwarded to the Grand Lodge asking that their Charter and records be returned and permission be given to re-organize once more. The petition was granted and the Lodge was re-opened under the old Charter.<br />
<br />
The first meeting of the Lodge after the Charter had been returned was held at the home of Brother Albert Nye and<br />
opened on the first degree. His house was the one now owned by Harry V. Lawrence.<br />
<br />
Applications having been received from James I. Dillingham, Thomas L. Swift and Solomon H. Baxter for the degrees, they were balloted for and accepted, and came forward to receive the Entered Apprentice Degree. A dispensation having been granted for sufficient reasons by the District Deputy Grand Master, who was present, the aforesaid candidates were passed and raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason.<br />
<br />
The officers chosen were regularly installed by the District Deputy Grand Master as follows:<br />
* George W. Swift, Worshipful Master<br />
* Benjamin F. Tucker, Senior Warden<br />
* George W. Donaldson, Junior Warden<br />
* William Hewins, Treasurer<br />

Visiting Brothers present were: R.W. Rufus S. Pope, District Deputy Grand Master, George Marston, Major S. B. Phinney, Silas J. Bourne, Ferdinand G. Kelley, of Fraternal Lodge, and Brothers Childs, Hallett, Bearse, Simmons and Baker, all from James Otis Lodge of Barnstable.<br />
<br />
Brother William Nye was very active in getting the Charter returned, and the first few meetings were held at his home, after which they hired and fitted the rooms over what is now the Falmouth Coal Office. They remained there a few years, when they bought the building on the site where the present building now stands — the same that they had occupied in 1801.<br />
The history of Marine Lodge to this point, June, 1923, was written by Right Worshipful William H. Hewins, Past Master of Marine Lodge, and read by him at the 125th anniversary held at that time.<br />
<br />
This anniversary was celebrated on June 24th and 25th, at which time Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFerrell Dudley H. Ferrell], Grand Master,<br />
and his Suite officiated. It was attended by over two hundred Masons.<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting in March, 1930, a very delightful party was given Right Worshipful William H. Hewins to celebrate his ninetieth birthday. Brother Hewins informed the Lodge that the gavel which we now use was made by Captain John Hamblin of West Falmouth from bones taken from a whale he killed at sea. He presented it to the Lodge along with a twenty-four inch gauge, which has since been lost.<br />
<br />
In 1935 funds were collected and the present building was erected, the corner stone of which was laid by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAllen Claude L. Allen], Grand Master, on May 24, 1935. It was also dedicated by Grand Master Allen on April 27, 1936.<br />
<br />
Since 1923, Marine Lodge has been very prosperous, increasing in membership from 186 members to 268 at the present time. We also have twenty-three Past Masters and three Past District Deputy Grand Masters now living.<br />
<br />
Marine Lodge has today the original Charter granted by the Grand Lodge in 1798; she owns the building we now occupy; she has a Charity Fund of several thousand dollars.<br />
<br />
During World War II, fifty-two members of Marine Lodge responded to our country's call, three of whom made the supreme sacrifice.<br />
<br />
==== 175TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, SEPTEMBER 1973 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1973-197:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Robert J. Tilden.''<br />
<br />
We know from Falmouth tradition, as well as the archives of Grand Lodge, that Marine Lodge, A. F. & A. M., was chartered and duly constituted a century and three-quarters ago. The names of Frank Wicks, Joseph Webb, Robinson Dimmick, Isaac Parker, Prince Hatch, Davis Swift, John P. Caswell, Hugh Donaldson, Timothy Crocker, Richard Bunker, James Wing and Lewis Parker appear on the petition; and we now honor their memories as the Charter Members.<br />
<br />
Where and when had these men been initiated ? As leaders in a maritime community, some, it may be assumed, had traveled to larger ports or lived abroad. Colonial America had a generous supply of Lodges distributed from Maine to Carolina, as did several British Colonies in the Caribbean. But in what Lodge and under the jurisdiction of what Grand Lodge they took their first Masonic steps still suggests further research.<br />
<br />
===== A WORSHIPFUL LODGE =====<br />
<br />
The Charter itself duly signed by the officers of Grand Lodge carried the date March 13, 1798. The minutes of Marine Lodge record that the first meeting of our Ancient Brethren was held on March 26, 1798. The first meeting place was the home of Stephen Swift, probably the only member of Marine Lodge ever chosen Senior Steward in his own home.<br />
<br />
Brother William H. Hewins, writing for the 125th Anniversary, identified the location of the Stephen Swift house as "being the old house next east of the Town Farm." Brothers with shorter memories of Falmouth will need to know that the Falmouth Artist Guild now occupies the buildings once used for municipal charity, and that a granite marker formerly situated between the Recreation Building and the General Swift Motel (now replaced by the Holiday Inn) memorialized the site of General John L. Swift's birthplace. A bronze tablet carried the notation that: "The Marine Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons occupied it at one time for its meetings." Would it not be an appropriate part of our anniversary observances to seek the restoration of this historic marker?<br />
<br />
When sickness in the family of Stephen Swift compelled the Lodge to seek other quarters, it met in the home of Samuel Shiverick, "in the south west upper chamber." The site of this house is now occupied by the Post Office. Meeting in private homes continued until the "new" building was completed in 1801.<br />
<br />
The construction of our first Lodge Hall is an interesting example of the cooperation of individuals concerned about public education, the Town (which annually expended $400 for schools), and the Lodge. A few months after Marine Lodge was chartered, fifty subscribers pledged themselves to buy eighty shares, "in company with the Masonic Society if they chose to join us," to fund the building of a school house "where the old one now stands." The Town was also invited to participate "so far as they may agree for the benefit of a town house."<br />
<br />
Heading the list of subscribers for the school were Timothy Crocker and Frank Wicks, charter members and the first Master of Marine Lodge. Four other charter members can be identified among the subscribers, including Elijah Swift, the second Master.<br />
<br />
A year later, 1789, the school house proprietors voted to complete the outside of the building and to lay the floors equally with the Masonic Society. W. M. Elijah Swift received the contract to build the structure, and Brother Timothy Crocker received the money from the subscribers and signed the contract in their behalf with Swift. On completion of the building the town occupied the lower rooms for school purposes. The Lodge occupied the upper rooms, meeting there until about 1810.<br />
<br />
For reasons not yet known, the years 1810 to 1820 were dormant ones for Marine Lodge, with its charter surrendered to Grand Lodge. In 1820 the charter was returned, and meetings resumed under the leadership of Aaron Cornish, who was Master from 1824 to 1829. <br />
<br />
According to Brother Hewins, the Lodge continued to meet until about 1832 or 1833, but the names of the officers seem to have been lost. At some time during the latter year the charter, working tools, and jewels were again returned to Grand Lodge and remained there until 1857.<br />
<br />
The second period of darkness is more easily understood and suggests that Falmouth was closer to the main stream of national events than might have been supposed. In 1826 the mysterious disappearance of William Morgan had so shocked the nation that the anti-Masonic party was born. Shrewd political leaders determined to exploit popular anti-Masonic feelings in order to unite divergent elements against the rising Jacksonian Democracy. Jackson had frequently spoken in favor of the Order and his stature as a Mason was widely known. The seven electoral votes of Vermont in this election of 1832 was the high tide of the movement politically, but more time was required for social animosities to abate. It is now generally conceded that the anti-Masonic movement was caused by political and social conditions of the time, rather than a result of the Morgan episode, but its impact upon Falmouth and upon the fortunes of Marine Lodge was no less severe for being part of a national movement, however transient.<br />
<br />
===== A JUST AND LEGAL LODGE =====<br />
<br />
It was 1857, almost a full generation after the Lodge closed, before a number of old members petitioned Grand Lodge to restore their charter. The first meeting following the return of the charter was held in the home of Albert Nye better known to the present generation as "Mostly Hall."<br />
<br />
Also at the first meeting applications were received from three applicants who were balloted for and accepted. The District Deputy Grand Master being present, he gave the necessary dispensation and the Lodge proceeded to confer all three degrees on all three candidates. In addition, they reorganized the Lodge, electing and installing a full roster of officers.<br />
<br />
After meeting for a time in Brother Nye's home, the Lodge hired and furnished rooms over the Falmouth Coal Company office. They remained there a few years and then bought the building on Main Street which had replaced the school house of 1801.<br />
<br />
You recall that the Proprietors of the School House had shared with the Masons in the construction and use of the "new" school. About 1810 the lights went out in the Lodge Hall; they apparently went out in the classroom as well, and the building passed into private hands. <br />
<br />
In July of 1845 Thomas Swift sold for $200 to School District No. Nine the second story of the building (formerly the Proprietors School House and Masonic Hall) with the privileges of the stairway at the west end of the building and at the west end of the piazza as far as the casing of the first window where shall be made and kept a permanent partition, together with the undivided privileges of the land upon which said building stands. Ten years later, in 1855, William Sherman and Mary T. Sherman granted to the Trustees of Succanessett Lodge No. 135, I. O. O. F., a piece of land <br />
<blockquote><br />
"near the old Academy, so called. . ." The following year Henry H. Shiverick also conveyed to the same Trustees, "all my right in and to the second story of the building (formerly the Proprietors' School House and Masonic Hall) with the privileges of a stairway at the west end of the building together with the undivided privilege of the land under and around said building . . . being all the property conveyed to said school district No. 9 by Thomas Swift. <br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
By a deed dated August 2, 1862, the trustees of the Odd Fellows conveyed to the <br />
<blockquote><br />
members of the Marine Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Falmouth . . . a certain parcel of land . . . near Shivericks Pond . . . containing one fourth of an acre . . . with the buildings thereon.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
One can only speculate what tides of fortune brought about this transfer. Whether the Odd Fellows were moving to larger or to smaller quarters does not appear. Perhaps they remained, sharing the same hall as tenants, as they did during recent years.<br />
<br />
Whatever the circumstances, we can well imagine the pride with which our Brothers moved into the new facilities. Home at last!<br />
The significant fact is not so much that the Lodge acquired its present property more than a century ago, but that it returned to the site of the building in which the Lodge met from its earliest period, i.e., 1801. Except to change the form of record title from "the members of Marine Lodge'' to Trustees, it is my belief that the title to the property has never since left our possession.<br />
<br />
As the purchase of a lodge hall indicates, the second half of the 19th century was a period of resurgence and continued development for Marine Lodge in particular, and for Masonry generally throughout the country. One need not accept the literal accuracy of the anecdotes of many Masonic writers to share the popular conclusion that the agonies of the Civil War which took thousands of men from hearth and home to struggle in alien surroundings, gave new significance to,their fraternal ties and demonstrated the value of shared Masonic affiliations.<br />
<br />
To those familiar with Camp Edwards and Otis Air Force Base, it may seem strange to consider the experience of the Civil War noteworthy. Whenever servicemen are stationed within the length of our cabletow we are accustomed to confer degrees as a courtesy to other lodges. Many servicemen have joined our Lodge while stationed here, and many, many more visit with us regularly.<br />
<br />
The steady growth of Marine Lodge during the second half of the 19th century is also remarkable when the population of the town declined from the time of the Civil War to the turn of the century.<br />
<br />
In 1923 the Lodge observed its 125th Anniversary, and among the participants at the occasion was the Sutton Commandery Band from New Bedford. Brother Chris Knowles, a long-time resident of Falmouth, came here as a member of that band and preserves souvenirs of the occasion. (1923 Mass. 290-297)<br />
<br />
===== THIS TRUE AND PERFECT LODGE =====<br />
<br />
The most dramatic event of the period following the 125th Anniversary was the construction of the present Lodge building. In 1935 funds were collected and the cornerstone laid by M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAllen Claude L. Allen]; he returned in April the following year for the dedication. ''(1935 Mass. 50-52; 1936 Mass. 68-69)''<br />
<br />
Ably managed by Worshipful Brothers William W. Peters, Evan W. Moore and Howard R. Delano as Trustees, our Lodge Hall also provides facilities for meetings of the Order of the Eastern Star and the Order of Rainbow for Girls. The work and the objectives of both organizations we enthusiastically applaud and support. Two commercial tenants contribute to the financial strength of the property and make possible our remaining on Main Street.<br />
<br />
During World War II, in addition to entertaining visiting brothers in our own Lodge, 52 members of Marine Lodge entered military service, three of whom never came home. Similarly, during the Korean conflict and the tragic decade in Viet Nam, brothers have served with pride.<br />
In 1948 Marine Lodge observed its 150th Anniversary under the direction of the late Wor. George H. Bigelow, and the late Wor. Cornelius P. Van Tol presided as master of ceremonies. The Grand Master, M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMKeith Roger Keith], attended with a distinguished suite. ''(1948 Mass. 92-99)''<br />
<br />
This occasion was the beginning of twenty-five years of growth for Marine Lodge. At the 125th Anniversary in 1923, we boasted 186 members; at the 150th Anniversary in 1948, we had grown to 268. The Secretary informs me we now number 416, approximately half of whom reside in Falmouth and an equal number throughout the country. For a fraternity which conducts no membership drives, this is a flattering record and, I believe, better than the corresponding figures for Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
We are still too close to this period of our history to view it with any clear perspective. Physically, the Lodge continues to) occupy the same building which was so lovingly constructed in 1935 and 1936. Numerous able Masters have in their time worked to beautify and adorn the several apartments of the Temple. I remember the late Wor. George H. Potter's urging, "Let there be lights," and there were lights as we had never known them before. Many a candidate, waiting to be received, has pondered on the square and compass Wor. Samuel H. Wright had inlaid in the anteroom floor. I well remember fraternal debates between Brother Ernest A. Sterling, an operative as well as a speculative architect, and the late Brother Jack Overy, an equally versatile craftsman, on how best to reconcile the Master's ambitions and the Trustees' budget.<br />
<br />
The dining hall, the heating plant, the ventilation system, the elevator are all eloquent memorials of a continuing tradition that a Master of Marine Lodge must have wisdom to contrive, strength to support, and beauty to adorn the Lodge building as well as all other great and important undertakings. Current proof of the present vitality of this tradition may be found in the renovations recently carried out under the leadership of our most junior Past Master, Wor. Kenneth C. Smith.<br />
<br />
The roster of the other Past Masters need not be recalled. Each has played his part and each has made his unique contribution to the prosperity of our Order. I am sure that for every Mason the Master who presided when he first entered the Lodge, the Master who raised him, and the Master or Brother who labored so long and patiently to teach him the several lectures will always linger in memory as the special exemplars of Masonry. In that context, I cherish a special regard for the late Wor. George H. Bigelow, who received me; the late Wor. Gustave E. Anderson, who raised me; and Wor. Samuel H. Wright, who tutored me.<br />
<br />
For those who have gone through the chairs, the Master who started you in line and the Brothers who helped you learn the ritual can never be forgotten. For me these debts are due the late Wor. George H. Potter and Russell H. Brown. How many of us have been assisted by Russ Brown! For me, these men gave Masonry its form and substance, just as for each of you, others have done the same and more. But these are personal memories and no more the measure of worth for a lodge than for a Mason.<br />
<br />
Marine Lodge's fame is built on stronger facts. In recent years we have sent three officers to serve Grand Lodge: Rt. Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLGRose George E. Rose], as Junior Grand Warden; Wor. Elisha Robbins, as Grand Pursuivant; and the late Wor. F. Gordon Jaynes as Grand Lecturer. Everyone familiar with the duties of Grand Lodge officers gratefully recognizes that these avenues of service are supplied only by generous investments of time and energy by the incumbents.<br />
<br />
In earlier years the late Wor. Joseph R. Hall was known as Master. District Deputy, and Secretary, to name only a few of his roles. I doubt whether there was a member of the Lodge during his time whose Masonic experience was not influenced by Joe Hall. Similar mention should be made of Wor. Russell Hartwell Brown, Master and Secretary of Marine Lodge, Master of the Lodge of Instruction, High Priest of Orient Chapter, Eminent Commander of Sutton Commandery No. 16, and industrious worker in behalf of innumerable other related Masonic bodies. Enthusiastic boosters of Freemasonry, ardent ambassadors of Marine Lodge, these are two names writ large in our history.<br />
<br />
Of the same caliber are our three living District Deputy Grand Masters: Rt. Wor. Sumner I. Lawrence, Rt. Wor. Milton E. Williamson, and Rt. Wor. Howard R. Delano. By serving the District, they have brought honor to us.<br />
<br />
More important than the Masters and officers, I should like to mention the late Alden H. Boothby and Lyman J. Clark, two Brothers who for years worked to make Masonic service a reality. Those who knew them well remember the quiet fidelity with which they performed the duties and privileges of the Service Committee. Similarly devoted and of major importance to the work of the Lodge has been Brother Harold Ruschky, who has exhorted us to part with blood, that others might Live. Who knows how many lives have been extended because of his efforts.<br />
<br />
Nor should anyone infer that our Masonic service has been kept within the Order. Although no Brother runs for public-office as a Mason, many members have served and do now serve the general good through public office. As examples, I invite your attention to Wor. Roger L. Savery, County Commissioner, Wor. J. Edward Nickerson and the late Brother Granville Beale, former Selectmen; the late Wor. Milford R. Lawrence, Town Moderator for twenty years; Wor. Frank L. Nickerson, School Committee; Bro. Henry G. Behrens, Finance Committee; Wor. William W. Peters, Wor. Russell H. Brown, and Bro. Charles A. White, Planning Board ; and the late Wor. F. Gordon Jaynes as Town Accountant.<br />
<br />
In the Police Department Bro. Harold L. Baker, father of three Masters of Marine Lodge, including our present one, served as Chief for many years. Wor. Kenneth C. Smith is now a Sergeant, as was his father-in-law, Bro. Clayton W. Collins, before him. With many Brothers in the full-time, as well as the special, force we are well protected. One could — and probably should — continue in this way to mention other Brothers who have served the Lodge and the Town in various ways; cooks and craftsmen, town meeting members and civic committees are only a beginning. In trying to name some, I am certain to omit others. It is better to suspend while recognizing the contributions of many more. Thus, in numerous ways the members of Marine Lodge practice outside the Lodge the Masonic principles inculcated within it.<br />
<br />
Every fraternal history, however brief, should include some record of the banquets shared, the visits of the Most Worshipful Grand Masters and other distinguished Masons received, the anniversaries, the special nights, and other memorable occasions which have marked our followship. Some will recall the visiting degree teams; others, the times when half of those present wore service uniforms. Few will agree as to which are most noteworthy, so 1 leave each to his own memories. Let it suffice to say that the fellowship of Marine Lodge is a many-splendored thing, wherein each Brother makes his own contribution and finds satisfaction of his own particular need.<br />
<br />
So mote it be.<br />

==== 200TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, APRIL 1998 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1998-33:''<br />
<br />
''By Wor. Robert A. Greenfield.''<br />
<br />
We learn from Falmouth tradition, as well as from the archives of Grand Lodge, that it was in the heart of a few outstanding men consisting of a Doctor and a few Sea Captains to build a Masonic Lodge here in Falmouth. These men petitioned M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere] to constitute a Masonic Lodge in the small town of Falmouth. However, it was M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBartlett Josiah Bartlett] who finally granted Marine Lodge its Charter on March 13, 1798.<br />
<br />
Marine Lodge is the twenty-fifth oldest lodge in the State of Massachusetts and the third oldest on Cape Cod ([http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=KingHiram King Hiram's] Lodge in Provincetown and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Adams Adams] Lodge in Wellfleet being the oldest on the Cape.) The first meeting of Marine Lodge was held on March 26, 1798 in the home of Stephen Swift, who was probably the only member of the Craft to be chosen Senior Steward in his own living room. A granite monument, which sits on the grassy knoll in front of the Gus Canty Recreation Center, was erected to the memory of the first meeting place. On the monument is a brass plaque stating that the first meeting site sat 200 hundred feet to the east of the marker. The place is now the site of Falmouth Inn, across the street from the Dairy Queen.<br />
<br />
A sickness in the Swift family made it necessary to move the meeting place to the home of Samuel Shiverick, where it remained until 1801. The site of his home is now occupied by the Falmouth Post Office. The construction of the first Lodge building was a joint venture between the members of Marine Lodge and the Town of Falmouth. Shares in the building were sold; fifty Marine Lodge members bought eighty shares. In 1801, the Falmouth School Board agreed to share in the cost of the building with the Masonic Society. Wor. Elijah Swift, the second Master of Marine Lodge, received the contract to build the structure. Bro. Timothy Crocker received the money from the subscribers and co-signed the contract on their behalf, with Wor. Swift. The Lodge occupied the upper floor and Falmouth School District used the lower floor.<br />
<br />
The period between 1801 to 1820 were the first years of darkness for Marine Lodge, largely due to the fact that most of the members were seamen and, therefore, not in town often. Our Charter was returned in 1820 and there is no record of meetings held until 1824. In 1832 or 1833, the Charter, jewels, and working tools of Marine Lodge were returned to the Grand Lodge and remained there until 1857.<br />
<br />
In 1857, some of the older members of Marine Lodge petitioned the Grand Lodge to have the Charter restored. After it was returned, meetings were held in Albert Nye's home, which is now known as Mostly Hall. The members were unable to meet in the original Lodge building as it had passed into private hands. At that first meeting, with the District Deputy Grand Master present, three applications were accepted. With dispensation having been given, the Lodge proceeded to confer all three degrees on the three candidates. In addition, the Lodge elected and installed the new officers.<br />
<br />
After moving from Bro. Nye's home, Marine Lodge met over the Falmouth Coal Company's office. In 1862, Marine Lodge bought the original Lodge building from the International Order of Odd Fellows, bringing us home at last.<br />
<br />
During the latter half of the nineteenth century, Marine Lodge experienced a resurgence in membership as did Masonry nationally. Many believe that the agonies of the Civil War played a part in this resurgence causing men to reestablish their Masonic ties.<br />
<br />
Since the establishment of Camp Edwards and Otis Air Force Base, Marine Lodge has conferred degrees to many military men stationed away from home as a courtesy to other Lodges. Many servicemen joined Marine Lodge and an untold many others visited regularly. This spirit of brotherhood continues today.<br />
<br />
In 1935, construction of the present lodge building was started and a cornerstone was laid by M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAllen Claude L. Allen], who returned a year later to dedicate the new building.<br />
<br />
In 1987, Wor [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJPeterson E. Joel Peterson] and a committee of fellow Marine Lodge members, developed a plan to promote Masonic Awareness. The purpose was twofold: to inform the general public of the Masonic heritage that existed in Falmouth and to inform potential candidates of the procedures to become a member of this or any well governed lodge. They sponsored a Pre-Candidate breakfast, which explained the workings of Freemasonry. This breakfast produced 22 candidates for 1988 and has become the model and foundation for Masonic Awareness in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
The Lodge hall provides facilities for the meetings of the Order of Eastern Star, the Order of Rainbow Girls, and the order of DeMolay, as well as other groups that have had the need to use the building for various meetings throughout the years. We have two commercial tenants also that have helped to make it financially possible for us to remain on Main Street. Physically, the Lodge continues to occupy the same site as the original building which was lovingly constructed in 1801 and reconstructed in 1935-1936. In 1990, the building was greatly enhanced by the addition of air conditioning in the Lodge room. In 1991, new vinyl siding and new thermal windows were added to the beauty of the building.<br />
<br />
Many Masters have given much of themselves and their time in effort to keep the building beautiful and in good repair. Wor. George H. Peters brought us new lighting; others brought us heating, ventilation, and a dining room. In 1972, Wor. Kenneth C. Smith did a renovation of the inside of the building. In 1988, Wor. Willard A. Plummer gave our building a new face lift. Each of the other Past Masters have provided his own unique contribution in providing us with wisdom, strength, and beauty.<br />
<br />
In 1923, the 125th anniversary of Marine Lodge, we boasted 186 members; in 1948, the 150th anniversary, we had grown to 268 members; in 1973, the 175th anniversary, we had expanded to 416 members. Today, we remain essentially at the same number, with 402 members. About half of our members reside in the Falmouth and the surrounding area; the others are dispersed over the face of the earth.<br />
<br />
By 1992, Marine Lodge has had eleven District Deputy Grand Masters of which three are still living: R. W. Frederick F. Jones, R. W. Howard R. Delano, and RW E. Joel Peterson. We have thirty-two living Past Masters, most of whom are still living in the Falmouth area and attend Lodge meetings regularly.<br />
<br />
December 27th, 1992, Marine Lodge saw the advancement of one of our own members elevated to the position of Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLovering David W. Lovering]. During his term of office, March 8, 1994 we saw the recognition of Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Masons.<br />
<br />
In 1996 our own R. W. E. Joel Peterson was elected to office of Grand Senior Warden for the Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts.<br />
In 1997 another one of our members, R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPSmith Peter R. Smith], was elected Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
We cannot forget the Master who received us into the Craft and the Brethren who have spent many long hours instructing us during our arduous undertaking of learning what it takes to become a good Mason. Let us not forget, but be ever mindful, that all of us, no matter to what plateau we ascend, we are all but workers in the temple, in our own way.<br />
<br />
So Mote It Be.<br />
<br />
===== LIFE IN FALMOUTH 1798 =====<br />
<br />
''By Bro. Ted Huguenin.''<br />
<br />
In order to understand what life was like in the town of Falmouth at the time of the founding of Marine Lodge, it is necessary to go back to the turbulence of the Revolution and its aftermath. The Revolution was particularly hard on Falmouth for a number of reasons. A lot of its wealth was expended during this period due to the negative impacts of the war on many of its maritime means of livelihood and contributions to the war effort. Livestock was also depleted due to British plundering. Falmouth was literally on the front lines, with British warships and landing parties in the immediate area for much of the war. British interest was due to Falmouth's strategic position as a chokepoint for sea-borne communications and shipping (there was no railroad, highway system or Cape Cod Canal). Falmouth was also the strategic staging point for patriot political and military efforts to hold Martha's Vineyard, the Elizabeth Islands and even Nantucket. The British bases in the immediate area were in Tarpaulin Cove and Vineyard Haven, from which smaller vessels called "shaving-mills," of up to three masts, with a cannon on the bow and well-armed crews of about 25, roamed the coast looking for provisions and livestock, as well as patriot shipping. They were fast and maneuverable. They often landed to raid individual farms and homesteads. Falmouth has a long coast line, which was very difficult to monitor and protect.<br />
<br />
It was a war of long uneventful watches, false alarms, raid and counter raid, ambush and mixed loyalties. Only a fraction of these events were even recorded (usually due to some noteworthy or particular actions of an individual). There were clearly Tories who knew well the area and its people that sided with the British. These problems were compounded by the fact that the town was not self-supporting with respect to food staples. Some of the firefights involved ships with food stuffs, which sometimes changed hands several times. The local militia, under the superb leadership of Major (later General) Joseph Dimmick, was usually successful in these endeavors, which involved both land and sea actions.<br />
<br />
British frustrations with Falmouth led to the planned attack of April 3, 1779. Without prior warning from a known "Tory" on Pasque Island, the town would have been taken and burned. Four militia companies responded, Falmouth Center, North Falmouth, Sandwich Center and Sandwich Snake Pond, totaling about 200 men opposing an assault force of about the same number. It was a one-sided affair. There were no local casualties. The cannonading of the defenders and the town did little real damage and started no fires (believed due to the spring thaw). The assault forces being in open boats, while the militia was behind earthworks, were reported to have taken fifteen killed and twenty wounded, including the Tory commander. Interestingly, a very similar scenario was to be repeated during the war of 1812, involving the British warship Nimrod with about the same results.<br />
<br />
The situation in Falmouth after the revolution mirrored the rest of the country but was probably somewhat worse due to the proximity and duration of local war activity. There were huge national and state debts, confused and changing national governmental structure and a war ravished economy. The general confusion was great, there were disagreements and conflicts about what should be done (demonstrated by Shay's rebellion of 1786 in this state). Economic recovery did not start immediately. The new Constitution was ratified in 1788; Wor. George Washington was sworn in as the first President in 1789; and Congress passed in 1790 an act to redeem war-time paper money at $1 for $100 of paper. The State forgave Falmouth's unpaid Revolutionary War assessments, due to particular hardship. Falmouth was one of only four towns on the Cape to be so designated. These events worked to stabilize the situation and 1790 started a decade of prosperity for Falmouth.<br />
<br />
The first U.S. Census of 1790 (comparable 1800 census data are in parenthesis) lists 217 (268) families, 783 (910) free white males, 816 (931) free white females, with 38 (41) "free other" for a total of 1,637 (1882) free souls in Falmouth. The 1790 Census summary lists no slaves in Massachusetts, but there is reason to believe that this may not be completely true for Falmouth (detailed records indicate 2). The national numbers in 1790 were a total of 3,893,635 people, which included 694,280 slaves. The town's population was divided up pretty much as it is today, with a town center around the Green and eastward along Main Street, population clusters in Woods Hole, West Falmouth, North Falmouth and East Falmouth. The number of families indicates the number of houses in the whole Town. A road map of 1795 shows the Town's main roads as they are today, with Route 28 and Woods Hole Road, Main Street, Route 28 to Hyannis, Sandwich Road and Old Barnstable Road.<br />
<br />
The economic activities in the town involved agriculture, hay production of about 500 tons/yr (1802), sheep, cattle and orchards particularly being noted. There were eight mills in the town (1800), one a fulling mill and the others grist and possibly saw mills. Most were wind powered. There was also substantial salt production of 35,000 bushels/yr (1800), mostly located around Salt Pond, and maritime industries. There were 60 vessels owned in Falmouth averaging 55 tons in 1800. Six were fishing vessels (two fishing the Straits of Belle Isle and four fishing the shoals) and the rest were coasters. The majority of the coasters were involved in lumber and trade with the southern states, especially the ports of Charleston, Beaufort and Savannah. During this era many "mechanics" from the town went to the South in the fall and returned in the spring or early summer. These were the original "snow birds." "Mechanics" were skilled workers primarily in wood. They were probably mostly ship/house wrights, and carpenters. There are also indications that "prefabbed" houses may have been shipped south during this period along with the workers to assemble them. These winters in the South were stated to be a lucrative enterprise for the skilled craftsmen involved. The ship building era associated with offshore whaling hit Falmouth much later, starting about 1820. However, Nantucket had begun whaling about a hundred years before Falmouth. Men from Falmouth undoubtedly shipped out on ships from Nantucket and other ports. There was local shipbuilding. A shipyard did exist in Quissett harbor in 1802 and West Falmouth and Waquoit are also mentioned in this regard. The substantial amount of coastal shipping vessels used during this era had to be built somewhere in the area, but specific information is lacking.<br />
<br />
The religious life of Falmouth during the 1790's was dominated by only two sects: the "official" Congregational Church and the Quakers. Prior to the revolution there were only two exceptions Cape-wide, both Baptist, one in Harwich (1756) and the other in Barnstable (1771). The Methodists did not appear in Falmouth until the start of the 19th century, with the first meeting house in 1808 and first church in 1811. The first Episcopalian Church in Falmouth was The Church of the Messiah started in Woods Hole in 1852. The first Catholic Church, St. Joseph's in Woods Hole, wasn't founded until much later in 1872. It was not religious freedom but rather religious tolerance, and Falmouth was more tolerant than many other New England towns. It wasn't until the 19th century (petition to the General Court and a town vote, both in 1810) that Quakers and Episcopalian/Methodists were relieved of having to pay a church tax to support the local Congregational Church. However, as late as 1825 Congregational Church records tell of a committee appointed "to look up delinquents and bring them back to their duty."<br />
<br />
The decade saw a number of innovations in the Town. The first Post Office was established in 1795. The first Postmaster was Capt. Joseph Palmer, a former Revolutionary War Militia Company Commander. An inoculation Hospital for smallpox was established by Dr. Francis Wicks (Charter Member and first Master of Marine Lodge) at Nobska Point in 1797. It was isolated, due to the skepticism about the viability of the new procedure, with the nearest population being about ten houses in Woods Hole. There had been a smallpox hospital on Great Hill (Falmouth Heights), as early as 1777. Presumably it was an isolated site at that time. It was run by Dr. George Hugh Donaldson (Charter member and first Senior Warden of Marine Lodge) who came from England in about 1776. Dr. Donaldson was instrumental in bringing the vaccination technique to Falmouth by his correspondence with Dr. Jenner in England. Tradition says he overcame opposition by inoculating his own children and sending them to stay with small pox patients. On a different line, the first Poor House in Falmouth was established on Shore Street in 1800.<br />
<br />
There were a few contentious town issues during the 1790's. One issue involved problems resulting from animals running free. This got to the point that a town ordinance was passed in 1795 to ban pigs running lose. A town "Hog Officer" was appointed to enforce this statute. An other recurring issue involved the "center" of town. The town had grown eastward from the Town Green extending along Main Street. The controversy was about where to place the new meeting house and Congregational Church. The issue was finally settled by building two meeting houses, although the East End Meeting House was not a separate congregation until 1821. The first was completed on the Town Green (actually on the green, not its present location) in 1796 and the "town bell" made by M.W. Paul Revere was bought and installed the same year. In 1799 a town ordinance was passed to ring the bell at 6 AM, noon and 9 PM. This bell is presently in the tower of the church. The East End Meeting House was completed in 1797. Another issue involved the herring fishery, which was used primarily as a source of bait and was of some economic consequence. The controversy involved the damming of the streams for mills or other purposes, preventing the fish from going upstream to multiply. The core of the issue was conflicting rights of property owners versus public rights of access to the common resource fishery. The General Court in 1798 passed a law "regulating the fishing of alewives in Falmouth". Feelings got so high that in 1800 some town's people loaded a town cannon on the Green and then filled it with herring (aimed at someone's house maybe?). Unfortunately, when fired the canon burst, killing one person. There were also sufficient disagreements and unhappiness with town policy that the northern part of the town petitioned in 1797 to be allowed to secede from Falmouth and join Sandwich. This was strongly opposed by the rest of the Town in the General Court and the petition was denied. Interestingly, these issues are not that different from current town politics.<br />
<br />
Falmouth had been criticized by the State for deficiencies in its educational system both before and after the Revolution. The first permanent schools were not established until 1767. Before this time a teacher rotated around Falmouth teaching for 3 months in each "quarter" of the Town. The 1767 change established both a "man's school" and a "woman's school". The women's school was a form of "lower" school for younger less-accomplished students. The town in 1788 voted 140 pounds for a grammar school. However, The first specifically built school building of record in the town was built by private subscription in 1800 by Wor. Elijah Swift (second Master of Marine Lodge) for $675. It was a combination school and Masonic Temple for the newly chartered Masonic Lodge of Falmouth. This building still exists and forms the rear part of the current Marine Lodge.<br />
<br />
Well, what was the year 1798, the year Marine Lodge was Chartered, specifically like in Falmouth? The second President, John Adams, was in national office. The Governor of Massachusetts was Increase Sumner, elected the year before and destined to die the year after. The Selectmen of Falmouth were Jonathan Robinson, Samuel Nye, Paul Swift, Nathaniel Shiverick and Joseph Hatch. The Town was well into an era of prosperity, largely based on coastal shipping and other maritime endeavors. This era was to go on until about 1805 when European wars started affecting American maritime activities leading to the War of 1812 with Britain. There was a disquieting short quasi-war at sea with revolutionary France during the year of 1798, involving privateers on both sides. Capt. Rowland Crocker of Falmouth, in command of an American privateer, fought a battle at sea with a superior French vessel. He was severely wounded and his First Officer surrendered. He survived, was taken to France as a prisoner and got to shake the hand of Napoleon. He later had a long and distinguished maritime career as a ship's Captain. Rowland Crocker was the son of Bro. Timothy Crocker,(Charter Member of Marine Lodge) probably the Towns most influential citizen of the era who lived on The Green in the house later bought by Wor. Elijah Swift.<br />
<br />
Marine Lodge was founded during a period of growth, prosperity and relative peace. This was a Falmouth whose form and structure were not fundamentally different from the present time. The main differences today are — much greater scale, with greater diversity and a large number of tourists.<br />

It was a June evening but the cool breezes of the ocean blowing in on Cape Cod in Falmouth kept the gathering of distinguished Masons and the Lodge brethren in a happy mood as the work of the evening, under the direction of the Hellenic Square and Compass Club of Massachusetts, saw the Raising of the son of Worshipful George Marken, and his two co-candidates, to the degree of Master Mason.<br />
<br />
A full Lodge hall, composed of brethren of the fraternity from the Cape and from many parts of Massachusetts, enjoyed the work and the sociability that followed.<br />
In attendance, besides the Hellenic Club brethren, were: M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBerquist J.

'''The Raising of a Monument: Marine Lodge’s Gift to Falmouth'''<br><br />
''by Rt. Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEJPeterson Joel Peterson]''<br />
<br />
The tragic events of the morning of September 11, 2001, should never be forgotten. To honor those who perished and the courage and heroism of those brave first responders, Marine Lodge had a memorial constructed, and then presented it as a gift to the citizens of the town of Falmouth, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
The genesis of this community project came about in September of 2011, when [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MEFreeport23 Freeport Lodge No. 23] acquired two steel beams from the ruins of the World Trade Center in New York City, and gifted them as a memorial to the town of Freeport, Maine. The central figure in this effort was Most Wor. Charles E. Ridlon. Inspired by this example, a committee was formed at Marine Lodge to determine the feasibility of erecting a similar memorial in Falmouth. Committee members Rt. Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRSewall Ralph Sewall], Rt. Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJFranklin James Franklin], and myself met and discussed the prospects over the next several months; all were in favor, but no one was sure how to proceed.<br />
<br />
I had a chance encounter with Daniel Altshuler, during a meeting of Massachusetts Consistory in Boston; Bro. Altshuler is a renowned sculptor, and member of The [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=TyrianAshlerAcacia Tyrian-Ashler-Acacia] Lodge of Gloucester. While discussing the idea of the lodge project, Altshuler mentioned that he knew the whereabouts of another large, mangled steel beam from the World Trade Center that had been part of a remembrance exhibit at the North Shore Arts Association in 2002 and was now in the custody of architect Richard Bernstein. An e-mail introduction was made, and Mr. Bernstein responded by saying that he had been waiting ten years for such a call and felt that a community memorial would be a most appropriate use of this moving artifact. He also said he would be honored to design the memorial and site plan.<br />
<br />

</p><br />
<br />
The steel secured, the next hurdle was to find a suitable location in town. Contacts with a town selectman led us to Falmouth Fire Chief Mark D. Sullivan. The chief enthusiastically agreed with the concept and was struck by the fortuitous timing of the request; a member of his department had recently asked his permission to construct such a 9/11 memorial, however the fireman had subsequently learned that the<br />
New York Port Authority’s steel distribution program had ended. <br />
<br />
Chief Sullivan suggested that a redesign of an existing memorial area at the fire and rescue headquarters on Main Street would be an excellent site. The lodge committee quickly agreed. At this point, there was an enthusiastic commitment for the steel coupled with an outstanding location for the memorial park. Everything was falling nicely into place!<br />
<br />
It was felt that, for this to be a Marine Lodge community project, all of the funding should come from the lodge and its members. The lodge committed a significant sum, and fundraising commenced with two generous challenge gifts from members. Ultimately, almost $10,000 in cash and in-kind gifts were raised by the lodge.<br />
<br />
Inspired by the lodge initiative, the Falmouth firemen decided to raise funds themselves to add a bronze fire helmet and bell, and a new flagpole to the park. To complete their part of the park, the firemen used the steel to assist their successful community fund-raising during the summer.<br />
<br />
In May, firemen traveled to Gloucester and transported the steel to Falmouth. It was loaded on a trailer, displayed in several locations, and was the subject of much interest. It also became the centerpiece of the Memorial Day parade.<br />
<br />
Architect Bernstein designed a comprehensive plan that included moving the existing memorial, the addition of the steel and fire department monuments, and the erection of a flagpole. A base of Barre granite was commissioned as a platform for the steel girder. Bronze lettering and a plaque were also ordered. A local contractor, Grafton Briggs Landscaping, was selected to complete the project and site work commenced in late summer. A large tree was removed to another location in town, the existing monument was repositioned on the site, and a concrete base installed for the granite. Lodge members designed and installed the lighting.<br />
<br />
The granite arrived during the remnants of Hurricane Isaac, and with time running short, the drilling of the stone, which was necessary to affix the bronze to the granite base, was carried out under a tarpaulin. Installation work continued for the granite base and steel along with the flagpole and two granite columns. Bluestone was added and enhanced landscaping was completed on time.<br />

On September 11, 2012, seventy-five members of Marine Lodge, led by Worshipful Jayme K. Baker and Most Worshipful Grand Master [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMStewart Richard J. Stewart] processed along Main Street from the lodge and joined 150 firemen and citizens already at the site. The fire chief led a program that included a blessing by a local clergyman, a pledge of allegiance led by local Cub Scouts, and the ringing of the last alarm at the time the first plane crashed into the World Trade Center building. Chain of custody of the artifact steel was transferred to the town by the Grand Master and Marine Lodge.<br />
<br />
One of the hallmarks of Masonry is networking. This project was truly a cooperative community effort involving Marine Lodge, members of the Falmouth Fire Department, and other people from Falmouth and beyond. A memorial to the September 11 tragedy — the Pearl Harbor Day of our generation — a day that changed everything, has been dedicated to the citizens and first responders of Falmouth, Massachusetts. All Freemasons, wheresoever disbursed over the face of the earth, can share in the pride of a job well done.<br />

''History of Norfolk Lodge''<br><br />
''By Wor. Leonard Dawson.''<br />
<br />
The origin of Operative Masonry dates back into antiquity, but organized Freemasonry or the beginning of Operative and Speculative Masonry, which bodies had existed side by side from an early date, was established on June 24, 1717, over two hundred years ago, when four Lodges in London, England, first met and erected themselves into the Grand Lodge of England, which is the parent of every Grand Lodge in the world, and which gave the commission to Rt. Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrice Henry Price], First Provincial Grand Master in 1733, giving him the authority for the formation of Masonic Lodges in New England. Since that time the growth of Freemasonry has been phenomenal. Many Lodges in England and America can now boast of a membership larger than the total membership of the parent Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
The Grand Lodge of Massachusetts dates back to July 30, 1733, and from this organized body Freemasonry was introduced into the town of Needham on June 10, 1811, nearly one hundred and thirteen years ago, when [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Meridian Meridian] Lodge was granted permission to change its location, after fourteen years' sojourn in the town of Watertown, to the town of Needham, in that part of the town which is now the town of Wellesley. The Charter for this Lodge was issued December 11, 1797. It was signed by [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere], Grand Master. Meridian Lodge unfortunately on July 20, 1862, lost this precious document by fire. The Lodge met in Needham until September 13, 1843, a period of thirty-two years, at Smith's Tavern on the Boston and Worcester turnpike road. The structure was later known as Elm Park Hotel, but a few years ago was removed, its grounds now being used for park purposes. Many residents of Needham became members of Meridian Lodge, among them being Rt. Wor. Peter Lyon, who was Master in 1817. His son Peter was selectman of Needham for many years, and no doubt "Lyon's Bridge" in Greendale was named in memory of this old family. Wor. Seth Dewing received his degrees in 1809 and served as Master seven years. He died January 10, 1883, nearly ninety-five years old, having been for several years the oldest Mason in Massachusetts, a total of seventy-four years. Andrew Dewing, one of his ancestors, purchased an estate and settled in Needham in 1644, twenty-four years after the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth. Other Needham men belonging to Meridian Lodge were Ebenezer Fuller, James Smith, Simeon Grover, who was Junior Deacon about 1841, John Tolman, Thomas P. Weston, Royal McIntosh, Leonard Kingsbury, Luther Smith, Alvin Fuller, and many others.<br />
<br />
After Meridian Lodge moved from Needham in 1843 the residents of the town who desired to become Masons affiliated with nearby Lodges, and in 1874, thirty-one years later, the history of Norfolk Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, of Needham, Massachusetts, commenced, its official date being May 18, Anno Domini 1874, Anno Lucis 5874, when the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMNickerson Grand Master of Massachusetts] issued a Dispensation to hold meetings in Needham. Prior to this official act twenty-eight of the Masons then residing in Needham, being interested and devoted to the great principles of Freemasonry and being desirous of meeting in closer relationship with each other, held several meetings preliminary to taking definite steps for establishing a permanent Lodge in the community.<br />
<br />
The first meeting was held April 6, 1874, and the records state that about twenty of the Craft assembled. Edgar H. Bowers was chosen chairman and Emery Grover secretary of the meeting. It was unanimously decided that a Lodge should be constituted in this town and steps were immediately taken to have a subscription list in furtherance of the object, also to negotiate to procure the use of suitable quarters for Lodge purposes. At a meeting held April 22, 1874, a committee consisting of Edward Dorsey, Edward A. Mills, and Aaron Twigg was appointed to procure the recommendation of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Constellation Constellation] Lodge, of Dedham, it having Masonic jurisdiction over the town of Needham. A committee consisting of Edward A. Mills, Emery Grover, Edward W. Proctor, Edward Dorsey, and James E. Chapman was also appointed to prepare a petition to the Grand Lodge, asking that a Lodge be constituted in Needham.<br />
<br />
It was also voted that the style and title of the Lodge shall be Norfolk Lodge, of Needham, Massachusetts. The name at this time without doubt was after the county of Norfolk in which county the town is located. It was also voted that the regular communications be held on Monday evenings on or before the full moon of each month. This was done in order that the Brethren might return home by the light of the moon and this custom was carried on until April 11, 1892, and you Brethren will appreciate this practice when you return to your homes tonight by the light of the full moon. On April 29, 1874, the first officers of the Lodge were chosen as follows:<br />
* Worshipful Master, Bro. Emery Grover <br />
* Senior Warden, Bro. Edward A. Mills <br />
* Junior Warden, Bro. James E. Chapman<br />
At this meeting it was also decided to purchase necessary furniture, twelve officers' collars and jewels, besides aprons for the members. It will be interesting here to note that Mrs. John P. Edwards wrote me a short time ago of the interest taken by the ladies in the early formative period of the Lodge. She stated that some of the members' aprons were made by the ladies and her machine was used because Mrs. Grover had only a single-thread machine, while hers was a double-thread machine, and they desired to have the aprons sewed with a double-thread machine.<br />
<br />
At the meeting held April 29, 1874, the following Brothers were elected by request of the Worshipful Master-elect :<br />
* Treasurer, Bro. Eldridge G. Leach <br />
* Secretary, Bro. Edward W. Proctor <br />
* Chaplain, Rev. Bro. Stephen G. Abbott <br />
* Senior Deacon, Bro. Edward A. Dorsey <br />
* Junior Deacon, Bro. Edgar H. Bowers <br />
* Senior Steward, Bro. George M. Hodge <br />
* Junior Steward, Bro. Benjamin T. Harding <br />
* Marshal, Bro. Aaron Twigg <br />
* Inside Sentinel, Bro. John T. Edwards <br />
* Tyler, Bro. Lewis Armstrong<br />
On May 18, 1874, the last important preliminary meeting was held by the petitioners and on this same date the Most Worshipful Grand Master issued a Dispensation empowering the Brothers to form and open a Lodge. The first regular communication of Norfolk Lodge was held May 20, 1874, when sixteen members were present. The first application was received at this meeting from B. Davis Washburn and the Lodge then proceeded to rehearse the Entered Apprentice degree.<br />
<br />
Thus was Norfolk Lodge, Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons, formed in the town of Needham, at a time when the population, which included both Needham and Wellesley, numbered about 4,100 souls, whereas today, in both these towns it is estimated there are about 16,000 people; 8,000 in each town, not including the student population of Wellesley, which is about 2,500. As a comparison the total valuation of Needham in 1874 was about four and a half million dollars ($4,500,000), whereas today the valuation in both towns is about thirty-four million dollars ($34,000,000). These figures are here given to show the growth in this vicinity from farming and wood lands to two towns of beautiful homes, the environment of the best.<br />
<br />
For one year the Lodge operated under Dispensation granted by the Grand Master, during which time applications were received and degrees conferred upon eight candidates. The interest in the early days of the institution pf the Lodge was marked by the earnestness of the officers and members.<br />
<br />
B. Davis Washburn was the first candidate to receive his degrees in Norfolk Lodge, the dates being as follows: <br />
* Entered Apprentice, June 29, 1874; <br />
* Fellow Craft, July 27, 1874; <br />
* Master Mason, September 21, 1874; <br />
but Bro. Washburn never signed the by-laws of the Lodge. It was a Grand Lodge regulation until 1876 that members who had received their degrees must also be elected to membership, ind the signing of the by-laws in some cases was one year lifer the member had received his degrees.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Henry Stoddard Locke, father of our preset Treasurer, Worshipful Clifford Mansfield Locke, was the first member who received his degrees in Norfolk Lodge p sign the by-laws. Brother Locke was entered as an BPPrentice October 19, 1874, passed to the degree of Fellow Craft November 23, 1874, and raised with Bro. William Pierce and Bro. David P. Henderson December 21, 1874. He signed the by-laws September 13, 1875. Bro. David Franklin Henderson referred to will be remembered by many of the older members; he was for many years captain of the Roxbury Horse Guards. His genial manner endeared him to his friends. It was with a great deal of pleasure and pride, when serving as Tyler, that he would arrange to have the shoe shining brush always ready for the new candidate and make him shine up his shoes in good style, so that he could make a good appearance when entering the Lodge.<br />
<br />
On April 19, 1875, a committee was appointed on by-laws and seal.<br />
<br />
On May 31, 1875, it was decided to hold a public installation.<br />
<br />
The following petition, with its dignified and respectful wording asking for a Charter, was presented to the Grand Lodge Communication held June 9, 1875.<br />
<blockquote><br />
''To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts:''<br><br />
<br><br />

<br />
It is interesting to note that nearly all parts of the town were represented on the Charter list; several from Grantville (now Wellesley), from Needham Plains (now Needham), from Highlandville (now Needham Heights), besides Charles River Village. Four of the above members from Needham Plains became Masters, Wor. Bros. Grover, Chapman, Leach, and Bowers. Three of the above from Highlandville also presided in the East, Wor. Bros. Mills, Dorsey, and Twigg. At the same Grand Lodge Communication, the Committee on Charters made report as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
''In the Grand Lodge, Quarterly Communication, June 9, 1875.'' <br><br />
<br><br />
The Committee on Charters respectfully report that they have carefully examined the by-laws, Records and accompanying documents, presented by Norfolk Lodge, of Needham, now working under Dispensation and find them to be in accordance with the Grand Constitutions and Masonic usage.<br><br />
< f><br />
All dues having been paid the Grand Lodge, your Committee would recommend that a Charter be issued to Norfolk Lodge as prayed for.<br><br />

</blockquote><br />
The report was accepted, the recommendations were adopted, and a Charter was granted Norfolk Lodge, of Needham, which Charter is now in a good state of preservation. On this Charter are borne twenty-eight names. Seven became Worshipful Masters of Norfolk Lodge. Thomas Coke Eaton, whose name appears on the Charter, was Past Master of Phillips Lodge No. 67, of Phillips, Maine.<br />
<br />
Emery Grover, the first named on the Charter, was the first Worshipful Master and occupied the position two years, in 1874 and 1875. lie received his degrees in [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Dalhousie Dalhousie] Lodge, Newtonville, being entered an Apprentice February 9, 1870, passed a Fellow Craft March 9, 1870, and raised to the degree of Master Mason, April 20, 1870. He served as District Deputy Grand Master for the<br />
[http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAFramingham21_1883-1910 Twenty-FIrst (21st) Masonic District] in 1888, 1889, and 1890. He was made an honorary member of Norfolk Lodge December 21, 1885.<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Emery Grover after serving as Master was elected to various offices and in all served the Lodge as an officer for forty-one years, during thirty-three of which he was Treasurer. He installed the officers of Norfolk Lodge into their respective positions at fifteen different times. He was a trial justice of Norfolk County for thirty years, from 1868 to 1898, when he received an appointment to be Judge of the District Court of Northern Norfolk County at Dedham in 1898. He occupied this position to the time of his death, a period of twenty-two years. He took an active interest in town affairs, having served fifty times as moderator, and was a member of the school committee for over twenty years. For thirty-two years he was an officer in the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Boston. On June 25, 1894, at the ladies' night held by the Lodge, I recall his making an address on the twentieth anniversary of Norfolk Lodge, and also on June 23, 1899, he gave a brief historical talk reviewing the steps which led to the gathering and promotion of Norfolk Lodge twenty-five years previous. On November 12, 1917, Norfolk Lodge presented him with a gold jewel bearing the cross keys supporting a past District Deputy Grand Master's jewel. <br />
<br />
On January 1, 1917, he, with Mrs. Grover, celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary in the Lodge apartments, to which all the members of the Lodge and many friends were invited. He died suddenly while on his way to attend court at Dedham on March 5, 1920. Had he lived until April 24, the following month, he would have received the Henry Price Medal from the Grand Lodge for fifty years of active Masonic service. As a man, a judge, and a Mason, he was all that our affections could desire; genial and considerate, he was indeed an ornament to the order to which it was his pride and privilege to belong. His Past Master's apron is now in possession of Worshipful James Henry Whetton, Past Master of Norfolk Lodge. Brother Whetton has arranged matters so that it will later become the property of Norfolk Lodge, to be preserved in its archives. It was worn by the writer at the laying of the corner-stone of the George Washington Memorial at Alexandria, Virginia, on November 1, 1923.<br />
<br />
The good work of Wor. James Edwin Chapman, the second Master, and Wor. Edward Augustus Mills, the third Master, and many other members of the Charter list, whom many of us had the pleasure of knowing personally and of whom we can testify to their Masonic worth, their loyalty to the Craft, and also to their deep interest as citizens of the town, will long be remembered.<br />
<br />
Your historian recalls an incident which is worthy of mention here.<br />
<br />
Thirty-three years after the organization of the Lodge, when your historian was serving as Master, arrangements were made to hold the Lodge's first Past Masters' Night to confer the degree of Master Mason. Wor. Bro. Edward A. Mills, having been living in anther state, attended this Lodge communication, it being his first visit in eighteen years. The Marshal was requested to conduct Rt. Wor. Emery Grover to the East, Wor. James E. Chapman to the West and Wor. Edward A. Mills to the South. Rt. Wor. Bro. Grover, when seated near me in East, stated I was making a mistake, as these were not the officers to confer the degree, but upon my advising the Lodge that the Worshipful Brethren who were then occupying the East, West, and South, were the first three officers of the Lodge, and that they had not been together for a great many years, the tears came into the eyes of Rt. Wor. Bro. Grover and he could hardly respond. He stated it was somewhat of a surprise and his mind went back to early struggles of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
I should be remiss in my duty if I did not mention one who stands out strongly among the Charter members, Worshipful Edgar Howard Bowers, who received his degrees in Dalhousie Lodge with Right Wor. Emery Grover in 1870. He was the fifth Master and first Senior Deacon of Norfolk Lodge; his record as Secretary for a period of thirty-one years is one of a painstaking and efficient re-Border of events. To him many of us owe a great deal for our Masonic education, because he was ever ready to give information on matters pertaining to Masonry and especially to Norfolk Lodge. His ready wit and jovial manner were characteristic of this estimable Masonic gentleman. For many years he served the town in its highest capacity, that of Selectman. He installed his son, Wor.<br />
Allston Rice Bowers (who is Chairman of the Executive Committee on this Semi-Centenary), as Wor. Master June<br />
21, 1909, and on June 26, 1910, presented him, on behalf of the Lodge, a Past Master's jewel. At that time Wor.<br />
Bro. Bowers, Sr., in part stated that:<br />
<blockquote><br />
To attain the rank of Past Master in our Ancient Fraternity and to sustain the dignity of the position, is an honor second to none in all the range of human preferment, and I confidently assert that no mere civic honor to which one may be promoted can ever obliterate or overshadow this.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Upon his retirement as Secretary, the Lodge (having grown to two hundred and eighty members) showed its appreciation by presenting him with a gold Past Secretary's jewel on June 11, 1917, it bearing also the insignia of a Past Master. He received the Henry Price Medal, April 24, 1920, for fifty years of active Masonic service. On January 20, 1920, he assisted the Master in the East, which was his last work in the Lodge, and it was coincident that within a few days of that date, forty years previous, as Worshipful Master of the Lodge, he raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason our oldest living initiate, Bro. George William Southworth. Brother Southworth remembered the event and presented Wor. Bro. Bowers with a gold Masonic watch charm. Wor. Bro. Bowers died at Needham, January 15, 1921.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Aaron Twigg is the only member living who was a Charter member of Norfolk Lodge. Brother Twigg received his degrees in Hong Kong, China, being raised March 1, 1870, in Zetland Lodge, which Lodge is under<br />
the English jurisdiction. He was a Charter member of United Service Lodge in that city also, and was admitted to [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Constellation Constellation] Lodge, of Dedham, August 14, 1872. He was elected Master of Norfolk Lodge in 1880, being the sixth Master, and served by re-election in 1889. He is a Charter member of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Sagamore Sagamore] Lodge, Medford. He therefore enjoys the distinction of having been a Charter member of three different Lodges. On April 24, 1920, he received the Henry Price medal for fifty years of active Masonic service. Those who attended the occasion will remember his youthful spirit as he sang songs in a good tenor voice and recited poetry to the enjoyment of all. He, also, has served the town as Selectman for a number of years. Yesterday morning Wor. Bro. Clifford M. Locke and myself visited him at Medford. He was sorry he could not attend this occasion, but sent Masonic greetings to all.<br />
<br />
The last name on the Charter list is that of James Smith who, as previously stated, was made a Mason in Meridian Lodge, then located in Needham. He was made a Master Mason February 8, 1827, and was the first member to be elected an honorary member of Norfolk Lodge on October 11, 1875.<br />
<br />
On February 26, 1877, Wor. Emery Grover in behalf of the Lodge presented Brother Smith an elegant gold-headed cane, he being the oldest member and also it being the fiitieth anniversary of his admission to Masonry. He Passed away at Highlandville (now Needham Heights) March 28, 1894, and was buried with Masonic honors, as he had requested it in 1886, having been a Master Mason over sixty-seven years. We cherish with a great deal of pride his Masonic diploma, blue silk sash, and apron which he gave in custody to the Lodge for preservation on Dec. 17, 1888, sending his Masonic greetings and requesting that his gift be laid up in the archives of Masonry as a memorial of him.<br />
<br />
A most notable event occurred on July 1, 1875, at a regular communication of the Lodge when the Lodge was Constituted by the Grand Officers. All twenty-eight Brethren were present who petitioned for a Charter, besides several visitors.<br />
<br />
The Grand Lodge officers entered at four and one-half o'clock. There were present of the Grand Lodge,<br />

Thus it will be noted that there were present from the Grand Lodge three Past Grand Masters and two distinguished Brothers who afterwards became Grand Masters, Most Worshipful Brother Everett and Most Worshipful Brother Endicott. Past Grand Master Winslow Lewis was a distinguished physician in Boston and took active interest jn the affairs of the city. He died at Grantville, then a part of Needham, on August 3, 1875, only a month following his visit at the Constitution of Norfolk Lodge, and this visit may possibly have been his last Masonic service. Norfolk Lodge was then Constituted by the Grand Lodge agreeably to ancient Masonic custom and proclamation was made thereof by the Grand Marshal. <br />
<br />
On this occasion the Grand Lodge opened in Ample Form at 4.15 p.m. The Master was qualified by Rt. Wor. William D. Coolidge; Rt. Wor. Charles W. Titus; Rt. Wor. William H. Chessman. A procession was formed and the Grand Lodge was escorted to the Congregational Chapel where the first public installation ceremonies of Norfolk Lodge were held. The chapel building, now used as a two-family dwelling house, is still standing at the corner of Chapel Street near the Needham ''Chronicle'' office, and it is rather singular that the celebration which we are now holding is within sixty feet of that building. Following the installation ceremonies the Lodge was closed and the Brethren returned to Parker Hall, where two hundred or more partook of a banquet which had been prepared. The record of this event concludes as follows:<br />
<blockquote?<br />
The exercises of the day were very interesting and creditable to the Lodge. The hearts of the Brethren were encouraged to believe that Norfolk Lodge will do good in the Town of Needham; that it will be a source of benefit and pleasure to themselves and an honor to the Masonic Fraternity.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
On July 12th, 1875, it was voted: "That this lodge does hereby declare that it now adopts the name of 'Norfolk Lodge' in commemoration of the Masonic virtues of that eminent man and Mason, His Grace Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk, Grand Master of English Masons in the years 1730 and 1731." And at the following communication the seal of the Lodge was changed to be the coat of arms of Thomas Howard, of England, the eighth Duke of Norfolk, enclosed by beaded circle surrounded by the words "Norfolk Lodge, Needham, Mass. May 18th, 5874," the whole being enclosed by a border of two circles, the inner beaded the outer plain. The suggestion to name the Lodge in memory of the illustrious Mason was made by Most Worshipful John T. Heard, Past Grand Master.<br />
<br />
Thomas Howard was a direct descendant of the famous family of Howards in England, the premier house in its history, which house was established by Sir William Howard, Knight, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas of England, who died A.D. 1308. The ancestral residence is Arundel Castle, in Sussex. The old castle at Arundel was used before the conquest of England in 1066. It was occupied before the line of Howards by the lines of Montgomery, Albani, and Fitzalan. The first Duke of Norfolk married the heiress of the famous Arundel Castle. In the family of Howard was Thomas, the fourth Duke, who was executed in 1572 for conspiring in favor of Mary, Queen of Scots. Thomas, second Duke of Norfolk, 1454-1524, won the battle of Flodden over the Scots. One of the Howards was the Lord High Admiral of England who defeated the Spanish Armada. Thomas, fifth Duke of Norfolk and Earl of Arundel, 1594-1614, collected the famous Arundel marbles now at Oxford. The house of Howard, without doubt, is of Saxon origin, •!S certain Saxon coins have been found on the estate bearing the name of Howard. The name has been written as Haward, Howard, Howward, Haeward, Iloword, and sometimes with the final "e."<br />
<br />
Thomas Howard, the eighth Duke of Norfolk, in whose memory the Lodge is named, was the eldest son of Lord Thomas Howard, second son of Henry Howard, the sixth Duke of Norfolk. He succeeded his uncle as Duke of Norfolk in 1701 and died December 23, 1732; he was interred at Arundel. He was born December 7, 1683, and May 26, 1709, he married Mary, daughter and sole heir of Sir Nicholas Sherbourne, Bart., of Stonyhurst, County of Lancaster. His brother Edward succeeded him in 1732 as the ninth Duke, as Thomas had no issue. There are only two known paintings of Thomas, the eighth Duke of Norfolk; one when young, inscribed ''Thomas, son of Lord Thomas Howard, aged eight years''; the other is a half-length painting, sitting, in a large wig. This painting is at Arundel Castle.<br />
<br />
Thomas Howard, the eighth Duke, had in all twenty-two different titles, the principal ones being, First Duke, Earl, Baron of England, and Grand Master of Free and Accepted Masons of England. He served as Grand Master of Masons in England from 1730 to 1731. He succeeded Lord Kingston, was active in the affairs of the Grand Lodge, was invested and installed at an Assembly and Feast held at Merchants-Taylor's Hall in the city of London on January 29, 1730, in the presence of a brilliant company, nine former Grand Masters being present. This was the only time the Duke of Norfolk was present at the Grand Lodge during his tenure of office, as he was absent for some time in Venice. His interest in the prosperity of the Institution is evidenced both by his having personally Constituted several Lodges prior to his departure, and having sent home many valuable presents from abroad.<br />
The munificence which the Duke of Norfolk displayed towards the Grand Lodge is acknowledged in the official minutes, but the following description (in part) from Dr. Anderson's writings of His Grace's gifts are richer in particulars:<br />
# Money to the Fund for Masonic Charity.<br />
# A large Folio Book of the finest writing paper for the records of the Grand Lodge, most richly bound and gilded, and on the frontispiece, in vellum, the Arms of Norfolk amply displayed with the inscription of his noble titles.<br />
# The old trusty sword of Gustavus Adolphus, King of Sweden, that was worn by his successor in war, the brave Bernard, Duke of Saxe-Weimar, with both their names on the Blade: which the Grand Master ordered the King's Sword Cutler to adorn richly with the Arms of Norfolk in silver on the scabbard; in order to be the Grand Master's Sword of State in the future.<br />
<br />
We have a letter on file from the late Bro. Henry Sadler, Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of England, in which he states that this sword is still used as the sword of state.<br />
<br />
His Grace, Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk, granted the first real authority to any person in America to issue<br />
warrants for the formation of subordinate Lodges. The Imputation was issued to Bro. Daniel Coxe, Esquire, of New Jersey, who was "Nominated, constituted and appointed" Provincial Grand Master of the Provinces of New York. It was dated "London, on the fifth day of June, in the year 1730, and of Masonry 5730," but search has been made in vain and there is no record whatever, either in the United States or English Masonry, where he ever performed one act exercising the authority conferred. Three years later, however, the Grand Master of England issued a deputation to [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrice Henry Price], of Boston, appointing him Provincial Grand Master of New England. }y virtue of this authority, Brother Price organized a provincial Grand Lodge on July 30, 1733, and granted a warrant for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StJohnB First Lodge] in Boston, which he Constituted on the 13th day of August (the following month), and which in 1783 united with [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Second another Lodge], Constituted by Bro. Thomas [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMOxnard Oxnard], Provincial Grand Master and successor to Brother Price, under the name of St. John's lodge, now the oldest Lodge on this continent.<br />
<br />
Prom this constituted Grand Lodge and the Massachusetts Grand Lodge (Scottish Constitution), united with it m 1792, all Lodges in this State have received their authority to meet, and Norfolk Lodge has always been proud that it meets under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
During the early years of Norfolk Lodge there were many periods of financial hardships as a vote taken on February 7, 1876, will illustrate. "It was decided that an organ should be purchased and at such price as the committee should determine and on terms such that the Lodge shall have not less than six months in which to commence payment for the same." Assessments were made from time to time for the members to pay an equal amount to defray expenses for entertainment, and there are records showing that the Lodge had to borrow money to meet some of its obligations.<br />
<br />
The first gift to the Lodge as recorded was by Wor. James B. Chapman on December 25, 1876, when it was voted that the thanks of the Lodge be tendered the Master for the handsome cushion upon which to carry the Holy Writings presented by him.<br />
<br />
At the festival of St. John the Baptist held June 24, 1878, two of the toasts there given are most interesting and they also apply today. They were, ''First'': "The Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. Its lead we are only too glad to follow and its command we ever feel safe to obey." ''Second'': "The Clergy. In us they find no antagonism but most cordial cooperation in striving for the good of mankind." On these great principles handed down to us by our early Brethren, Norfolk Lodge has ever tried to follow and keep in their footsteps, for upon them rests the strength of our Institution, because the Ancient Landmarks are in them contained, a belief in God and of those Ancient Masonic customs which have come down to us through the ages.<br />
<br />
The first Proxy to the Grand Lodge was elected on May 21, 1883, and Wor. Edgar H. Bowers again attended Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
For a few years the matter of capitation tax of the Grand Lodge on members caused some concern amongst a few of the Brethren, but on December 10, 1884, the Lodge voted to assume and pay the tax of June 11, 1879, for its members who had individually commuted it, and the Treasurer was authorized to borrow money sufficient to pay for that purpose and give notes not exceeding six per centum per annum, but at the following meeting in January 1885, a generous subscription was received from Bro. James P. Ingols, also a letter from the Grand Master, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Samuel C. Lawrence], covering a check in aid of the payment of the amount to be paid, thus liquidating the amount clue the Grand Lodge. Resolutions were passed to the Most Worshipful Brother, thanking him for his deep interest and expressing the hope that he may reap a rich reward of "Corn, Wine and Oil" for all his labors. There is no doubt that our Most Worshipful Brother did enjoy the Masonic service he rendered to the Craft and the exalted position in which he was esteemed by his Brethren was extended throughout the Commonwealth.<br />
<br />
You will be interested no doubt in the shortest record and without doubt the shortest regular communication; the record is of the communication held November 3, 1884. ■Alter stating that eight officers were present, the records state:<br />
<blockquote><br />
The Lodge was opened in form on the third degree thirty-five minutes past seven o'clock and closed in form on the third degree at forty minutes past seven o'clock.<br><br />
<br><br />
Attest, ''Sec'y. Pro tem.''<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
On March 20, 1885, a request was made by the Grand Lodge asking Norfolk Lodge's advice regarding the formation of a [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=LebanonMedfield Lodge in Medfield], and a resolution was passed favoring the same provided the Grand Master should see fit to do so. I do not find where a Lodge was organized, but the jurisdiction of Norfolk Lodge extended some distance at that time.<br />
<br />
The ladies usually attended the public ceremonies of installation held near St. John the Baptist's Day and many times spread the table for the banquet. On many occasions they happily surprised the members of the Lodge, after their communication was over, by having prepared elaborate suppers and banquets in the adjoining apartments, and there the members would meet their wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters, making the meetings some of the bright spots in life, and in the history of Norfolk Lodge, enjoying, as the records sometimes state, "a season of true Masonic refreshments in a feast of reason and flow of soul," and closing by singing "Auld Lang Syne."<br />
<br />
Norfolk Lodge has always attended divine service at one of the several churches as invited, at or near St. John's Day on June 24, of each year. It is a pleasure which Norfolk Lodge has enjoyed by observing by special appointment these festal days and honoring the memory of eminent men of past ages whose lives and characters have illustrated the cardinal principles of Freemasonry which we should aim to perpetuate.<br />
<br />
The Brethren who have received the highest honors in Freemasonry, who have been or are active members of Norfolk Lodge, are Brothers [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHCarter Horace Albert Carter], Charles Dana Burrage, and Robert Edward Denfeld. <br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Horace A. Carter received his degrees in Norfolk Lodge in 1895. He was elected Worshipful Master, 1913 and 1914. He was appointed District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAWaltham5_1911-1926 Fifth Masonic District] in 1916 and 1917, was elected Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge in 1919. On May 19, 1919, Norfolk Lodge presented him with a beautiful gold jewel, the emblem of that office. Brother Carter enjoys the distinction of being the only member of Norfolk Lodge to occupy a position on the Board of Grand Officers in the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. He is now serving his seventh year as an active member of the Board of Masonic Relief. His interest in Masonry and in Norfolk Lodge has endeared him to its members. He has made many gifts to the Lodge. On February 24, 1924, he sent from Jerusalem while visiting there, when taking a trip around the world, a piece of an ashlar from the quarries of King Solomon, also a gavel, the handle made of olive wood and the head of the gavel made of stone from King Solomon's quarries.<br />
<br />
Bro. Charles Dana Burrage received his degrees in Norfolk Lodge in 1898. He served as Marshal, Senior Deacon, Junior Warden, and was elected Senior Warden, at about which time he was chosen Most Excellent Grand High Priest of the Grand Royal Arch Chapter of Massachusetts and found it necessary to resign his position in the Lodge, which was much regretted by his Brethren.<br />
<br />
Brother Burrage was elected President of the Massachusetts Convention of High Priests, Order of High Priesthood, at the annual meeting in March, 1922, succeeding Most Excellent Warren B. Ellis, who had held the position for thirty-one years, and on retiring was made president emeritus. Brother Burrage has been reelected at the annual meetings in 1923 and 1924. His son, Robert Heywood Burrage, received his Master Mason degree at the fiftieth annual meeting of Norfolk Lodge held last Monday evening, May 12, 1924.<br />
<br />
Most Wor. Bro. Robert Edward Denfeld has received the highest distinction in Symbolic Masonry. He became affiliated with Norfolk Lodge on October 7, 1878, at a time when serving the town as High School principal. He served as Junior Deacon in 1879, Senior Deacon in 1880, Junior Warden in 1881, and was elected Senior Warden May 1, 1882, but I find no record of his installation. He dimitted October 23, 1882. Bro. Henry Stoddard Locke, Junior Warden, was elected Senior Warden by Dispensation granted by Most Wor. Samuel C. Lawrence to hold an election on account of the vacancy. Brother Denfeld in 1885 became superintendent of schools in Duluth, Minn., and served in that capacity for thirty-one years. He served the Grand Lodge of Minnesota in many positions and on January 22, 1914, was elected and installed Grand Master of Masons of Minnesota. In 1915 he was raised t0 the honorary thirty-third degree at Washington, D. C. The sons of many members have also become members of Norfolk Lodge, including the first Master, whose father, Brother Simeon Grover, was a member and his own son, Edwin M., later became a member. The present Master's father, Bro. George E. Mitchell, and also the father of the Master-elect, Bro. Henry D. Rodgers, have been members for a number of years.<br />
<br />
Wor. Bro. Charles E. Stanwood who served as Master at the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Lodge, has the honor of having the largest Masonic family connection, as his four sons, Harold E., Francis J., I. Ross, and Augustus T., also his son-in-law, Bro. Alfred J. Kroog, are all members at the present time.<br />
<br />
Pour members of the Lodge have been honored by having been elected by the people to serve as Representatives of the General Court, Bro. William Carter, Wor. Bro. Charles E. Stanwood, Bro. William H. Carter, and Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel H. Wragg], the present representative.<br />
<br />
Bro. Enos H. Tucker served as State Senator. Rt. Wor. Horace A. Carter served on the Governor's Council in 1912 under Gov. Calvin Coolidge, now President of the United States. Bro. William H. Carter is the only member to serve as a member of Congress.<br />
<br />
The members of Norfolk Lodge who served in the great Civil War and whose memory we cherish, are as follows:<br />
* Elias Washburn Adams <br />
* George Adams<br />
* Joseph Emery Fiske <br />
* Alonzo Evander Foss <br />
* Emery Grover <br />
* William Horrocks <br />
* Albert Dexter Kingsbury <br />
* Henry Tucker Mansfield <br />
* John Henry Whittemore<br />
Brother (and Dr.) Kingsbury was the first Commander of Galen Orr Post, G. A. R.; Wor. George Adams and Bro. John H. Whittemore also occupied this position. Bro. Wm. Horrocks was an officer of the Post for many years. Brother (and Dr.) Mansfield was an honorary member of Norfolk Lodge, a member of the Loyal Legion and much loved by the citizens of the town. Of the above, Bro. Elias W. Adams is the only living Civil War veteran.<br />
<br />
During the World War thirty-five members joined the colors and their names are here given in honored memory of that great struggle for liberty and righteousness. Twelve became commissioned officers. On the silk service flag, which now has a prominent place in the Lodge-room, is worked in blue silk the name of each Brother under his respective Star.<br />

During the fifty years that have passed we have been honored by four visits from the Grand Masters. The first was on July 1, 1875, which has already been described in full, when Most Wor. Percival Lowell Everett Constituted the Lodge. The second visit was on September 7, 1902, when Most Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGallagher Charles T. Gallagher], Grand Master, and Officers of the Grand Lodge visited Needham for the purpose of laying the corner-stone of the Town Hall, the building in which we are now holding our festivities, a handsome structure in the Colonial style of architecture. Worshipful George Albert Adams, our present Marshal, was Master of the Lodge and cordially welcomed the Most Worshipful Grand Master, and then, under escort of Gethsemane Commandery, of Newtonville, the Lodge and the Grand Lodge marched over some of the principal streets to the site of the new edifice where the ceremonies were conducted, and the stone was laid with due and ancient ceremony, according to established Masonic visage and pronounced "Well made, truly laid, true and trusty." Those of us who were present will never forget the occasion ; the day was glorious and a large body of Masons attended, and more than three thousand persons, visitors and Masons, witnessed the laying of the corner-stone. It was an eventful day in the history of Masonry in Needham. It bore the admiration of all who beheld it on account of the simple, yet beautiful and impressive ceremony.<br />
<br />
Might I, at this point, digress and speak, not for our history, but of the honor of Most Wor. Bro. Gallagher? One thing I well remember he said in July, 1902, at the of the corner-stone of the Masonic Temple in Roxbury. Speaking of the patriot [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJsWarren Joseph Warren] who, at the time of his death at Bunker Hill, was Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, he said: "The body of Joseph Warren was thrice buried, first in the trenches where he was slain, at Bunker Hill; second, in the Granary Burying Ground, and finally on Warren Avenue in Forest Hills Cemetery. There was erected to his memory a marble monument on Bunker Hill, succeeding the first placed there by [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=KingSolomon King Solomon's] Lodge in 1794, the column unbroken, but white in its purity and full and upright in its miniature grandeur, indicative of his spotless life and sturdy character." The last sentence, I think, also can well be applied to his own life, which was one of usefulness and honor to the Craft.<br />
<br />
The third visit was when Most Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBlake John Albert Blake] visited the Lodge in Masonic Hall, Kingsbury Building, February 11, 1907, when Wor. Leonard Dawson was Master, the occasion being one of a fraternal gathering, the two previous visits of Grand Officers being for official duties. The presence of the distinguished guests reflected lonor on Norfolk Lodge; the social and fraternal communion was notable.<br />
<br />
Those who are acquainted with Most Wor. Bro. Blake are pleased to know that he is still doing active Masonic work. r»e have seen him so many times at the Masonic Home at Charlton where he is like a loving father to the guests lere- I personally like to think of him standing strong, sterling, and upright, like the pillars most remarkable in<br />
Scripture history, which were erected by Solomon at the porch of the Temple and which Josephus describes in part as follows: "moreover Hiram made two hollow pillars-one of these pillars he set at the entrance of the porch, at the right hand (or south) and called it Jachin, and the other at the left hand (or north) and called it Boaz." The initials of these pillars, Jachin and Boaz, are J. A. B., the same as those of our Most Wor. Brother, John Albert Blake.<br />
<br />
The fourth visit was an occasion long to be remembered. Most Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLAbbott Leon Martin Abbott], with a suite of Grand Officers and representatives of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, visited Norfolk Lodge on January 13, 1919, when Wor. Harley E. Crisp was Master, to pay respects to Rt. Wor. Horace A. Carter on his having been chosen to the honorable position of Junior Grand Warden. We are indeed proud of our Most Wor. Brother Abbott and we regret his inability to be with us on this occasion. He is one of the honorary members of our Lodge.<br />
<br />
The visit tonight of our honored Most Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFerrell Dudley H. Ferrell] is the climax of all. We know him to be a great leader in this time-honored Institution. His decisions are wise and just and our admiration goes out to him in his great work as leader of the oldest Masonic Grand Lodge on this continent, and we all welcome him here tonight, but I shall have to leave it to the future historian to record the story of this event in full and of his honored presence here.<br />
<br />
The Lodge has had several places of meeting, but all have been within a few hundred feet of each other. From 1874 until September 29, 1879, the communications were held at Odd Fellows Hall, corner of Great Plain Avenue and Chapel Street (where the Crest and other buildings stand). From October 27, 1879, Masonic Hall in the Parker Hall Building was occupied until March 18, 1882, when Masonic Hall with nearly all the property of the Lodge was destroyed, on the morning of this date, by a fire which entirely consumed this building. (Parker Hall was located where the two bank buildings now stand, corner of Great Plain Avenue and Garden Street.)<br />
<br />
On April 3, 1882, the Lodge returned to Odd Fellows building when Elliott Lodge offered the use of its hall and also its white aprons, which the Lodge accepted with thanks, and negotiations were made to continue meeting at that place at a rental of $50 per year, until May 13, 1887, on which date the Odd Fellows Building was destroyed by fire, and I here write in part from the records relating to the loss sustained:<br />
<blockquote><br />
On Friday night May 13, 1887, at low twelve a fire broke out in be basement of the Odd Fellows building in Needham which soon spread throughout the whole structure and quickly destroyed all its contents.<br><br />
<br><br />
For a second time Norfolk Lodge suffered the loss of all its properties, files, and jewels, together with the beautiful and antique seal, the pride of the Lodge. The Charter, being the special charge of the Master, Wor. Albert E. Miller, was saved as were also the records and official copy of the by-laws.<br><br />
<br><br />
Again Norfolk Lodge is homeless. Much of the work of the Lodge was the handiwork and free gift of the Brethren. These gifts and associations connected with their presentation can never e replaced and this record is made that the history of Norfolk Lodge may do justice to the self-sacrificing zeal of the Brethren who stood by it in trial and misfortune.<<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Our Treasurer now has in charge a wax impression of the seal referred to above, it being the only impression made by this seal.<br />
<br />
The Master and Wardens of Constellation Lodge, of Dedham, tendered to Norfolk Lodge the kind offer to use their Lodge-room and regalia after hearing of the loss by fire.<br />
<br />
At a special communication held May 20, 1887, the Lodge met in St. Paul's Chapel, Moseley Building, corner of Great Plain Avenue and Chestnut Street, later known as the Bourne Building. The meeting was held in the apartments adjacent to the large hall now occupied by the Needham Theatre. Here the Lodge continued to meet until May 21, 1888, controlling the apartments, which were named Masonic Hall, Moseley Building. The Grand Lodge Tyler, Brother Henry Y. Parker, kindly loaned aprons and jewels for the regular communication held May 30, 1887.<br />
<br />
On June 18, 1888, the first meeting was held in Masonic Hall on the third floor of the Kingsbury Building. This building is now standing and is located on the south side of Great Plain Avenue and east of the now New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad tracks. The Lodge met in a small room on the front or easterly side of the building until October 10, 1892, when the room was extended to the west side of the building; the hall, being practically doubled in size, was refitted and also provided with a new carpet. Here the Lodge met until July 26, 1893, when again the Lodge was visited by fire, which destroyed the carpet, altar, and furniture of the Lodge, this being the third time in its history that a like event had happened. The next regular communication was held August 14, 1893, in the banquet room of the Kingsbury Building; also the September and October communications were held there, the renovating being completed for the November, 1893, Communication.<br />
<br />
On September 12, 1898, the apartments of the Lodge wre lighted by electricity for the first time; previous to this date kerosene lamps had been used. The new lighting proved a great convenience and was much enjoyed by the Brethren. The Lodge continued to meet in these apartments until June 24, 1907.<br />
<br />
On September 9, 1907, the Lodge met at Bourne Hall, in the large hall now occupied by the Needham Theatre, and continued to hold meetings there until October 9, 1911, when arrangements were made to return again to the Kingsbury Building, where meetings were held until September 13, 1915.<br />
<br />
On October 11, 1915, the first regular communication was held in the new Masonic Hall, 992 Great Plain Avenue, Needham, this property on the south side of said avenue opposite the Town Hall and Needham Common having been purchased by the Needham Masonic Hall Association. Extensive alterations had been made and a new building erected in the rear. The building and apartments now comprised a Lodge-room with suitable ante-rooms and parlor, together with a banquet room on the lower floor.<br />
<br />
Early in 1923 the Masonic Hall Association installed a Frazee pipe organ in Masonic Hall at a cost of $4,000 and an organ recital was given on June 8, 1923. This instrument occupies the entire floor space of the organ loft, the console being situated directly under it. The entire action is electro-pneumatic.<br />
<br />
The four panels which adorn the wall of the Lodge-room were formerly used by Dalhousie Lodge, Newtonville.<br />
On April 14, 1924, the Lodge took over the entire apartments on the second floor of the building which were vacated by the Needham Masonic Club, and also purchased the greater portion of the furniture.<br />
<br />
In these Masonic Hall apartments we have now met for nearly nine years, where it has always been like "home, sweet home," living in "peace, unity and concord and with goodwill towards all.''<br />
<br />
During the period which has passed one communication was suspended, the four hundred and sixty-first regular, called for October 14, 1918; this was on account of the prevailing epidemic of influenza or grippe, when many persons succumbed to the dread disease. This suspension was in order to carry out the suggestion of the Emergency Health Board of the town. Authority to suspend meetings without Dispensation while the epidemic lasted was granted by the Grand Master.<br />
<br />
The postponed meeting was held November 11, 1918, a memorable day in world history. The records state:<br />
<blockquote><br />
The lateness of the hour in opening this Communication, it being nine o'clock P. M., was on account of a 'General Town Celebration and Bonfire' on the occasion of the Allied Victory over the German Huns. This was a day of glorious celebration, November 11, A.L. 5918.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
During these fifty years, Norfolk Lodge has been in three Grand Lodge Masonic Districts, as follows: <br />
* In the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MATaunton13_1867-1882 Thirteenth District] from 1874 to 1882. <br />
* In the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAFramingham21_1883-1910 Twenty-first District] from 1882 to 1901. <br />
* In the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAWaltham5_1911-1926 Fifth District] from 1901 to 1924. <br />
The Fifth District now comprises fifteen Lodges; it has the largest number of Lodges of any District in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
The ministers of the five Protestant churches in Needham, besides our honored Chaplain are all members of the Masonic Fraternity.<br />
<br />
It is interesting to note the growth of the Lodge by each decade:<br />

<br />
From this table it will be noted that the Lodge has more than doubled its membership during the last ten years<br />
and has grown from its Charter list of 28 to 474; 750 have signed the by-laws of our Lodge. There have been thirty Masters of Norfolk Lodge of whom eighteen are now living; their names and year of election are as follows:<br />

Past Masters of other Lodges who are affiliated with Norfolk Lodge are:<br />
* Wor. Joseph Satterlee, Past Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=CTWolcott50 Wolcott Lodge No. 50], Stafford, Conn.<br />
* Wor. Fred M. Norcross, Past Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=BethesdaB Bethesda Lodge], Brighton.<br />

* Wor. Frank E. Porter, Past Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Soley Soley] Lodge, Somerville.<br />
A few years ago the Past Masters of the Norfolk Lodge formed a Past Masters' Association, to keep up close fraternal relationship with each other and to discuss from time to time matters which may be of interest to Norfolk -lodge and to Masonry in general. Wor. James H. Whetton is now President; former Presidents have been Rt. Wor. Emery Grover and Wor. Clifford M. Locke. One new Lodge, Wellesley Lodge, of Wellesley, has been instituted, formed in part from our membership; four of its Past Masters received their degrees in Norfolk Lodge, Wor. Frank E. Babcock, Wor. Frank H. Vaughn, Wor. Arthur Dedrickson, and Wor. William S. Wilson. On April 8, 1912, Norfolk Lodge received the formal petition for recommendation of Wellesley Lodge, and at that meeting Norfolk Lodge unanimously resolved to recommend that the petition for a new Lodge be granted, and further expressed the earnest wish that the future of the new Lodge would be bright and prosperous and a credit to our Ancient Institution.<br />
<br />
The seed of Masonry was sown in Needham when Meridian Lodge held its meeting in the town. It it fitting, however, that our Masonic descent should come from Constellation Lodge of Dedham, especially so when we consider that the town of Needham, prior to 1711, was a part of the shire town of Dedham. In like manner our Masonic descendants very properly go to Wellesley, especially so when we consider that prior to 1881, Wellesley was a part of the town of Needham. We therefore rejoice that we are linked together in so close a union.<br />
<br />
Fifty years have passed since Norfolk Lodge was Instituted and note the advance in that period; from kerosene lamp to the electric light, controlled near at hand or by remote control; before the invention of the telephone, the electric car or automobile, the aeroplane or undersea boat, the radio-telegraph or radio-telephone, and yet the great principles laid down in this time-honored Institution remain the same and will stand the further tests of time.<br />
<br />
It is impossible to predict what the future of Masonry will be in the town of Needham, but when we realize the accomplishments in the last half century and note its steady growth in a community which is larger in area than the Cjty of Somerville, the City of Everett, and the City of Cambridge combined, then who can tell what the future of our Fraternity will be in Needham, or throughout the world? With the great principles which are inculcated into our Order, having stones laid into its very foundation, such as liberty, justice, and equality, with the Holy Bible, the Great Light in Freemasonry, as our guide, and with a belief in God who is the ruler of us all, we must move steadily forward, and may, with these truths leading the way, arrive at a period when we shall embrace the entire race of man, looking forward to the time when one universal law of brotherhood shall bind all the nations of the earth.<br />
<blockquote><br />
Behold the acorn, from a tender root,<br><br />
Puts forth a weak and unregarded shoot! <br><br />

It gains new strength with each revolving sun <br><br />
Till its firm stem the raging storm defies,<br><br />
And its bold branches wave amidst the skies.<br />

==== 75TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, MAY 1949 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1949-67:''<br />
<br />
''By Reverend Brother Harry Woods Kimball.''<br />
<br />
No one knows how long ago the first Mason arrived in Needham, but in the history of Bristol Lodge, North Attleboro, which was organized in 1797, one hundred and fifty-two years ago, it is recorded that among the charter members were men from the Town of Needham. So the roots of our Masonry go far back into the dim past.<br />
<br />
Norfolk Lodge is tonight celebrating most joyfully its 75th anniversary, for it is a most firmly established institution in our community. For the 50th anniversary of the Lodge, Worshipful Leonard Dawson wrote a long and detailed history which fills forty pages in the Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts for the year 1924. That history must have been the result of many hours of research and of hard work.<br />
<br />
For the history of the first fifty years of Norfolk Lodge, therefore, I shall simply briefly stress the highlights of this splendid history by Brother Dawson. Masonry began officially in Needham 138 years ago when Meridian Lodge of Watertown was granted permission by the Grand Lodge to change its location to the Town of Needham. The Lodge met in Needham until 1843. After that year the residents of the Town who desired to become Masons were obliged to affiliate with nearby Lodges until, in 1874, the Grand Master issued a dispensation to hold Masonic meetings in Needham. At that time twenty-eight Masons residing in the Town took definite steps towards establishing a permanent Lodge in the community. A petition was presented to the Grand Lodge asking that a Lodge be constituted in Needham and that the title of the Lodge should be "Norfolk." The first regular communication of the Lodge was held on May 25, 1874, when sixteen members were present. Wor. Henry S. Locke, father of our present Treasurer, was the first member to receive his degrees in Norfolk Lodge and to sign the By-Laws. William Pierce, grandfather of R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEaton Laurence E. Eaton] and Wor. Chester W. Eaton, applied at the second meeting and was initiated at the fourth, on August 24, 1874. The petition for a charter carried twenty-eight names, headed by Emery Grover, who was the first Master of the Lodge. On the fiftieth anniversary only one of these charter members was living, Worshipful Brother Aaron Twigg. However, one name stands out among the charter members, Worshipful Edgar H. Bowers, who was the first Senior Deacon of Norfolk Lodge and its fifth Master. For thirty-one years he was a painstaking and efficient Secretary; for many years he also served the Town in its highest capacity, that of Selectman.<br />
<br />
At the banquet which followed the installation of the Lodge, more than two hundred sat down.<br />
<br />
The ministers of the various Protestant churches in Needham have always been active in Masonry and today all except one are members of the Blue Lodge. The Rev. Harry W. Kimball of the Congregational Church, served Norfolk Lodge as Chaplain for twenty-one years. In view of this cordial relationship, it is interesting to find recorded that at the festival of St. John the Baptist in 1878, of the two toasts given, one was "The Clergy. In us they find no antagonism but most cordial cooperation in striving for the good of mankind."<br />
<br />
Two living members of Norfolk Lodge were especially mentioned by Leonard Dawson in his history. Brother William H. Carter is the only member to serve as a member of Congress. Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHCarter Horace A. Carter] served as Worshipful Master in 1913 and 1914; then he became District Deputy Grand Master for the Fifth Masonic District, and in 1919, was elected Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
Norfolk Lodge has twice suffered, through fire, the loss of all its properties, files and jewels, and in the fire of 1887, when the Odd Fellows building was destroyed, it lost also the beautiful and antique seal, the pride of the Lodge, but the Charter was saved and all the records.<br />
<br />
On October 11, 1915, the first regular communication was held in the new Masonic Hall on Great Plain Avenue. During the long history of the Lodge, only one communication has been suspended. This was in 1918 on account of the prevailing epidemic of influenza.<br />
<br />
At the time of the fiftieth anniversary, 750 members had signed the By-Laws. At that time Worshipful Herbert N. Mitchell was the Master of the Lodge. In the very beautifully printed program of this anniversary, there were pictures of six members of the Lodge which would indicate that they were considered outstanding among the membership. These were R.W. Emery Grover, the first Master; Wor. James E. Chapman, the first Senior Warden; Wor. Edward A. Mills, the first Junior Warden; Wor. Edgar H. Bowers, who received the Henry Price Medal in 1920; Wor. Aaron Twigg, the only living charter member; and Bro. George W. Southworth, who at that time was the oldest initiate of the Lodge, having been initiated in 1879. Brother Southworth was for many years editor and owner of The Needham Chronicle and was a much beloved man in the community.<br />
<br />
Three hundred fifty members sat down at the anniversary banquet, and with the guests, there were about four hundred in all. The Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFerrell Dudley H. Ferrell], and ten other officers of the Grand Lodge, also all the Masters of the Lodges in the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAWaltham5_1911-1926 5th Masonic District], were present.<br />
A very beautiful booklet, printed in gold and blue, with the seal of the Lodge, containing a complete program of all events and a half-tone picture of the officers of the Lodge, was at each plate. On the following evening, the Lodge held a Ladies' Night in the Town Hall and it is recorded that nearly every seat in the hall was taken.<br />
<br />
Wor. Leonard Dawson concluded his history of the Lodge with this prophecy: "With the great principles which are inculcated into our order, having stones laid into its very foundations, such as liberty, justice and equality, with the Holy Bible, the Great Light in Freemasonry as our guide, and with a belief ln ^°d who is the ruler of us all, we must move steadily forward and may, with these truths leading the way, arrive at a period when we shall embrace the entire race of man, looking forward to the time when one universal law of brotherhood shall bind all nations of the earth."<br />
<br />
===== THE PAST TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF NORFOLK LODGE =====<br />
<br />
After the fiftieth anniversary of the Lodge, the first important event in its history was a special communication for the purpose of laying the cornerstone of the Evangelical Congregational Church December 7, 1924. There were twenty Grand Officers present, and Brother Joseph Willett of Norfolk Lodge represented both the Church and the Lodge in the spreading of the cement. The Grand Master, Dudley H. Ferrell, delivered an appropriate address for the occasion. There were several thousand persons present.<br />
<br />
Also in 1924, Norfolk Lodge appropriated $250 to furnish a room in the name of Norfolk Lodge in Williams Hall at the Masonic Home at Charlton.<br />
<br />
It is also recorded that in this year Right Worshipful Horace A. Carter returned from a trip around the world, in which he brought the fraternal greetings of Norfolk Lodge to the Lodges of the Far East. He gave to the Lodge a most vivid account of his trip and of his Masonic experiences while on it.<br />
<br />
In 1925 the Lodge received a legacy of $250 under the will of Lydia A. Grover, whose husband was the first Master of the Lodge and whose name stands first on the list of charter members.<br />
<br />
In 1926 occurred the death of Charles Dana Burrage, who was an officer of Norfolk Lodge for eleven years. He wrote several booklets on Masonry and was a most talented speaker in the Lodge.<br />
<br />
At the time of the fiftieth anniversary of Norfolk Lodge, the only living charter member was Wor. Aaron Twigg. Brother Twigg died in 1927. His was a rather notable Masonic record. He received his degrees in Hong Kong, China, being raised in Zetland Lodge there. He was a charter member of United Service Lodge of China; later he became a charter member of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Sagamore Sagamore] Lodge, Medford. So this Brother had the distinction of being a charter member of three different Lodges. He was elected Master of Norfolk Lodge in 1880 and was re-elected in 1889.<br />
<br />
Also in 1927, there came before the Lodge a petition for the formation of a new Lodge in Needham. Regarding this petition, the records read, "Wor. Herbert N. Mitchell offered the following motion 'that Norfolk Lodge recommend the formation of a [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Nehoiden new lodge] within its jurisdiction.' The Worshipful Master declared the vote unanimously carried."<br />
<br />
At this same meeting, Past Master Charles E. Stanwood raised his son, Brother Charles Carson Stanwood (who became Master in 1937), he being the youngest of five sons, all of whom were raised in Norfolk Lodge by their father. It may be noted further that on June 8, 1931, Wor. Charles E. Stanwood assisted in the raising of his grandson, Wor. Francis E. Stanwood, who later became Master of the Lodge on September 13, 1943. This was the first time in our history that a Master had raised five sons or a son and grandson in our Lodge and that three generations of a family served as Master.<br />
<br />
In 1928 the question of a new lodge-room was raised and it was suggested that such a room be rented at a rental of $3,000 a year in a new block to be built on the former site of the Baptist Church. A committee reported that Norfolk Lodge should own its own property, and instead of paying rental, should spend the proposed rental in improvements on its own property. The report of the committee was adopted. The question was again raised in 1946, and after careful consideration by the Directors of the Needham Masonic Corporation, it was concluded that to leave the present location would be unwise financially and that the cost of major construction at the present location was far too great for our present financial situation. It is our hope that the time will come when through legacies, gifts and the accumulation of funds, we may have large and more modern apartments.<br />
<br />
In 1929 the Treasurer's report showed that the members of the Lodge contributed nearly $1,000 for the Masonic Hospital Fund.<br />
<br />
The gavel now used at each meeting of Norfolk Lodge has this inscription on a silver plate:<br />

</p><br />
<br />
On December 11, 1944, Bro. Colonel Curtis R. Low presented a gavel made from a stone from the quarries of King Solomon at Jerusalem and acquired by the Colonel while on a "round the world" flight to the various theatres of World War II.<br />
<br />
It was during the time that Henry S. Rodgers was Worshipful Master that I became a Master Mason and I would like to record here that while the ritual work of the Lodge has always been given in an impressive manner, it is my conviction that no one has given it with a greater impressiveness and perfectness than did Wor. Brother Rodgers.<br />
<br />
At Christmas time in 1936, the Lodge had a turkey dinner, with a Christmas tree and presents for all members present. The records report that this was a great success, but I cannot find that it was ever repeated.<br />
<br />
In 1941 Mrs. Albert M. Miller presented to the Lodge a Masonic apron which was more than a hundred years old, and thanks of the Lodge was extended for this priceless gift.<br />
<br />
At about this time a notation is made that a member of Norfolk Lodge had presented the Charity Fund with a gift of $500. In 1946, the Lodge received a bequest of $300 from the estate of Brother James R. Ruiter.<br />
<br />
The 700th regular communication of Norfolk Lodge held on October 12, 1942, was a notable one for at that meeting the mortgage on the Masonic apartments was burned. The record states, "We now owe no man anything," but it had taken twenty-seven years to accomplish this. At the time the building became Masonic property, Wor. Clifford Locke was the presiding Master. The original mortgage was for the sum of $19,000. Most fittingly, the match was applied to the mortgage by Wor. Brother Locke.<br />
<br />
In 1942 it was voted that the Norfolk Lodge dues of members in the Armed Forces of the United States during the present war be remitted for the duration of their service.<br />
<br />
The February meeting of 1945 was notable for the fact that the meeting was held in a cold hall. The Lodge was entirely destitute of fuel oil, due to rationing restrictions during the War emergency. However, a load of wood had been procured to ease the cold for a short period. The scheduled dinner, the Fellowcraft Degree and the Fraternal Visit of Right Worshipful Fred Hale Hitchcock, District Deputy Grand Master for the Brighton Fifth District, was held as planned. With the temperature steadily dropping, and with the thermometer at 46° in the lodge-room, the work was carried on in the banquet hall, where the temperature was two or three degrees higher. Lt. Roger D. Goodwin, home on a few days leave from the Army, was initiated following the regular work of the evening.<br />
In 1944 a Roll of Honor was dedicated, beautifully painted with the crossed flags of the State and of our Country, over the colored seal of Norfolk Lodge, the two Masonic columns, the Great Lights, and the names of twenty-two members of Norfolk Lodge in their Country's service at the time of the dedication. And at this time this Resolution was adopted: "that inasmuch as Officers of Norfolk Lodge have laid aside their Masonic duties to answer their Country's call, it is the sense of this meeting that these brothers shall, at the first annual meeting after their return, be eligible for election or appointment to the office next above the one held at the time of their leaving the line."<br />
<br />
Most rightly Norfolk Lodge feels greatly honored in having one of its members elected to the office of Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and the Lodge has held three receptions to Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel Holmes Wragg], with printed programs and many most distinguished visitors. On the third occasion, November 7, 1947, M.W. Brother Wragg was honored by the presentation of a framed scroll commemorating his term as Grand Master, signed by all of the living Past Masters of Norfolk Lodge. The scroll had travelled 18,000 miles by air to be signed by Wor. Peter D. G. Hamilton at Guam. Also presented at this time by the Past Masters of the Lodge was an Honorary 33° jewel, M.W. Brother Wragg having attained that honor September 25, 1946, the only Needham Mason to have been so honored up to this time.<br />
<br />
In 1946 a Needham Chapter of the Order of DeMolay was instituted and Norfolk Lodge did much service in helping to bring this about.<br />
<br />
In 1948 it was voted that the sum of $2,000 be transferred from the Reserve Fund of Norfolk Lodge for the purpose of renovating the Lodge apartments and furnishings.<br />
<br />
The ten oldest members of the Lodge are Bro. William Henry Carter, Bro. Henry Howard Upham, R.W. Horace Albert Carter Wor. James Henry Whetton, Bro. William Arthur Probert, Bro. Frank Livingstone Warner, Wor. Theodore Mcintosh, Rev. Bro. Hugh MacCallum, Bro. Urban H. Nickerson and Bro. Harry McMath, all but one of whom are wearers of the Masonic Veteran's Medal for fifty years faithful service.<br />
<br />
The members donated $536.50 in 1947-48 to the Grand Master's Fund for Relief at the Masonic Home and Hospital.<br />
<br />
Through the generosity of Bro. Alan B. Stephens, the original copies of the regular and special communications of Norfolk Lodge from May 25, 1874, through 1944, have been beautifully bound in five volumes.<br />
<br />
In the course of this brief history of Norfolk Lodge, the names of quite a number of well-known members have been mentioned and their activities in Norfolk Lodge commented upon, but there are a few other names that in all fairness must be stressed because of what they have done and been in Masonry.<br />
<br />
First, certainly, should be placed the name of Most Worshipful Samuel H. Wragg. He was Worshipful Master of Norfolk Lodge in 1921; in 1939 he was appointed District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABrighton5_1927-2003 Brighton Fifth Masonic District]; the following year he was appointed Deputy Grand Master and, as we all know, was Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts in 1945, 1946 and 1947. And yet, to us all, he is just Sam" and I am sure that for all the world he would not have it otherwise. I think the genuineness of his friendship and the humility of his spirit are what makes the Most Worshipful Samuel H. Wragg beloved by all.<br />
<br />
Other members of Norfolk Lodge have served the Grand Lodge. Brother Horace A. Carter was Junior Grand Warden in 1919, and R. W. Brother Laurence E. Eaton, in 1940, was appointed Grand Standard Bearer and later served the Grand Lodge as Grand Sword Bearer, and is now a Grand Representative, representing the Grand Lodge of Delaware near the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. He is also President of the Past Masters' Association.<br />
<br />
Brother Frederick D. Sutton should not be forgotten. He was Master of the Lodge in 1897 and 1898, and for quite a few years, was the oldest living Past Master. He attended the Lodge meetings whenever he was able and was almost always honored in some way when he did. In 1933 Brother Sutton was presented with the Veteran's Medal for fifty years of service to Masonry, and with it, the greetings of the Most Worshipful Grand Master. A few meetings later, Brother Sutton gave the Lodge a very ancient Bible, and the gold lettering on the red leather binding reads: "Presented to Norfolk Lodge, A. F. & A. M., Needham, Massachusetts, on the sixtieth anniversary, May 14, 1934, A.L. 5934, by Worshipful Brother Frederick Davies Sutton." At the time of his death, October 25, 1944, he had been a member of Norfolk Lodge for sixty-one years.<br />
<br />
Another member of the Lodge who will not soon be forgotten by most of us is Worshipful Brother George A. Adams. He was installed Marshal in 1908 and served continuously in this capacity for twenty-five years. No one who ever saw George A. Adams serve as Marshal is apt to forget the unusual way in which he performed that simple act. Speaking in the lodge-room soon after his passing, I said that the most impressive act I had seen in all my years in Needham was George Adams doing his part in the opening and closing of Norfolk Lodge. I shall always remember with gratefulness the sincere and dignified manner in which he opened and closed the Holy Bible and arranged the symbols of the Craft upon it. His reverential attitude as he paused for a moment at the altar before returning to his place in the lodge-room was a benediction. His heart and his mind were in the things he did, as well as his hands and feet. Thus he made a time-honored and venerable ritual, which might easily have become merely a routine act, live and take on the aspect of eternity.<br />
<br />
Another name which stands out in a most memorable way is that of Brother Leonard Dawson. He was Worshipful Master in 1905 and 1906, President of the Past Masters' Association, and served as Secretary of Norfolk Lodge from 1917 to 1942, a total of twenty-five years. He became a life member in 1928. I quote a few words from my own eulogy which is inscribed in the records of the Lodge. "For nearly fifty years, Leonard Dawson has been associated with Norfolk Lodge and in all this long time, he has gone in and out among the brethren, beloved, honored and at length revered. If every one to whom he did a kindly service were to bring a blossom to his grave, he would sleep beneath a wilderness of flowers. We will never forget the sincerity and earnestness with which he gave the charges to new members. In his relations with his fellowmen, his purpose always was to meet upon the level and part upon the square."<br />
<br />
One other name must surely be mentioned and that, as most of you can well imagine, is the name of Wor. Clifford M. Locke. He was Worshipful Master in 1915 and 1916. He has served Norfolk Lodge for thirty-one years as its Treasurer and a total of forty-three years as an officer of the Lodge. In 1942 he was awarded the Joseph Warren Medal for distinguished Masonic service. It is very largely due to Brother Locke's careful administration of the funds of the Lodge that it is in the strong financial condition that it is today.<br />
<br />
In many of the histories of various Lodges, there is included a statement of the funds in possession of the Lodge, and therefore, here may be recorded that the funds in the treasury of Norfolk Lodge at the time of the annual report, September 1, 1948, are the following monies:<br />
* Charity Fund: $11,274.81<br />
* Reserve Funds: 19,655.75<br />
* Life Membership Fund: 762.21<br />
<br />
There are many interesting incidents in these seventy-five years of the Lodge. I will mention only one, and this I cannot vouch for although it was told me on good authority. At one time so many officers of Norfolk Lodge were also officers of the Town of Needham that the Town was persuaded to change the time of its annual town meeting so that it would not interfere with the regular meeting night of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
As was the experience of all Lodges, there had been a sharp increase in applications of candidates in Norfolk Lodge during and immediately after the period of the first World War. This sharp rise levelled off in the middle of the 1920s to a steady rise and continued through 1928, the high point in our membership showing on the Lodge returns of August 31st of that year as 502 members, when Wor. Arthur W. Littlehale ended his term as Master. Then came the depression years, when money was not only unavailable for degree fees, but for many, could not be afforded for annual dues. Many took dimits and many others were suspended for non-payment of dues, and a gradual decline in membership began to take effect. The returns of 1932 show the membership still at 486, after which there was a very marked decrease until in 1943, the low point of 378 members was reached.<br />
<br />
A rise again set in during the term of Wor. Francis E. Stanwood, interesting to note because of the parallel with the years of the first World War days. Gross increases in membership are recorded as 31 on August 31, 1944, 39 in 1945, 33 in 1946, 37 in 1947, 18 in 1948 (when there were 478 members), and 24 in the present year. This gross increase of 182 members in six years brings our membership continually, subject, of course, to the decreases caused by deaths and a very few dimits, almost back to the high point of 1928, for as this writing takes place, we have exactly 500 members.<br />
<br />
Looking back over these seventy-five years, we find that 1081 members have signed the By-Laws. Now, looking to the future, we find that Norfolk Lodge is stronger than it has ever been before. Age has brought no infirmities. The esteem and respect with which Norfolk Lodge is held in this community is the proof of its continuing worth. The men who have served Norfolk Lodge have kept the faith of Masonry; they have exemplified the principles of human brotherhood. Macaulay once said that "Men who do not revere the deeds of their ancestors will never do anything to be remembered by their descendants." In emulation, then, of these men who in the days that are gone have made Norfolk Lodge what it now is, may we so work and live that those who celebrate future anniversaries can look back and say of us, "They, too, exemplified the principles for which the founders stood."<br />
<br />
So mote it be.<br />
<br />
Let me close this history of Norfolk Lodge with an old Scottish Masonic toast which dates from before 1600 A.D.<br />

<br />
On April 6, 1874 a group of Masons met and a committee was formed to establish a Masonic Lodge in Needham.<br />
<br />
The first officers were chosen and elected on April 29, 1874. At this time we applied to the Grand Lodge for a dispensation to hold meetings in Needham. On the 18th of May 1874 this dispensation was granted by the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
The first regular meeting of Norfolk Lodge, under dispensation, was held on May 20, 1874. Meetings were held on "full of the moon" in Odd Fellows Hall, corner of Great Plain Avenue and Chapel Street.<br />
<br />
On July 1, 1875 Norfolk Lodge A.F. & A.M. was duly constituted. There were 28 brethren present when the charter was presented by the Grand Lodge officers.<br />
<br />
On October 27, 1879 we held our meetings in Parker Hall. Our previous meeting place was destroyed by fire with the loss of the Lodge properties. We returned to Odd Fellows Hall for our regular meetings on April 3, 1882. Again on May 13, 1887 we were forced out of Odd Fellows Hall which was destroyed by fire. We again lost our properties in this fire.<br />
<br />
After the fire, on May 20, 1887, we met in St. Paul's Chapel in the Bourne Building, corner of Great Plain Avenue and Chestnut Street. This meeting place continued until June 18, 1888 when we moved to the Kingsbury Building, now Stevens Building, current site of Youngs Furniture Company.<br />
On July 26, 1893 the Lodge Hall was again visited by fire which destroyed our carpet, altar and furniture. The August 14, 1893 meeting was held in the Banquet Room of the Kingsbury Building. In November 1893 we again met in the renovated Lodge Room until June 24, 1907.<br />
<br />
On September 9, 1907 we returned to the Bourne Building for a larger hall which was also occupied by the Needham Theatre.<br />
<br />
With an eye to the future, on April 11, 1911, the Needham Masonic Hall Association purchased land and building at 992 Great Plain Avenue, the site of the former Rimmele's Market.<br />
<br />
The facilities at the Bourne Building were no longer suitable to us as a lodge hall, so we again returned to the Kingsbury Building on October 9, 1911. Our meetings continued there until October 11, 1915, when we moved to our new Masonic Hall at 992 Great Plain Avenue.<br />
<br />
We continued to grow and on April 14, 1924 the Lodge took over the entire apartments on the second floor at 992 Great Plain Avenue. After 50 years, over 750 brethren have signed our By-Laws and our membership as of June 1924 was 474.<br />
<br />
On May 12, 1924 we held our 50th Annual Meeting, this being our 517th regular meeting.<br />
<br />
We commenced the celebration of our 50th Anniversary on May 18, 1924 with a parade which was followed by a church service in the Town Hall. On Monday, May 19th, a reception was held in the Lodge Hall with Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFerrell Dudley H. Ferrell], Grand Master, presiding ''(1924 Mass. 73-119)''. A banquet followed in the Town Hall. On Tuesday, May 20th, we held a Ladies' Night at the Town Hall.<br />
<br />
On Sunday, December 7, 1924, our 253rd Special Meeting, we laid the cornerstone of the Congregational Church with M.W. Dudley H. Ferrell, Grand Master, presiding with the assistance of our W. M. Henry S. Rogers of Norfolk Lodge (1924 Mass. 419-422).<br />
<br />
By May 10, 1925 our records indicated that our membership was 480 with 12 life members.<br />
<br />
On January 10, 1927 the fiscal year of the Lodge was changed from May 1st to August 31st, with dues of $8.00, and Grand Lodge dues $2.00. Membership as of August 31, 1927 was 490.<br />
<br />
On September 12, 1927 a petition for a new lodge in Needham was granted -— to be known as [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Nehoiden Nehoiden] Lodge.<br />
<br />
On February 13, 1928 new lodge quarters were suggested, to be on the site of the First Baptist Church, to be rented: idea rejected.<br />
<br />
On June 11, 1928 meeting, Bro. Samuel Smith was raised and this brought our active membership to 500. We reached a membership of 502 on August 31, 1928, and then due to stock market collapse and the beginning of the depression, our membership started to fall, and by August 31, 1930 it was down to 497.<br />
<br />
Another step forward for Norfolk Lodge ... on April 13, 1931 the Masonic Service Committee was formed.<br />
<br />
The world conditions were still showing their effect on our membership, as by August 31, 1933 we had fallen to 468 brethren.<br />
<br />
A notable event for Norfolk Lodge took place on April 9, 1934 when Wor. Walter K. Queen returned our Lodge gavel with which he opened a lodge in his stateroom on the ''Jacob Ruppert'' at Little America. This gavel was also used on the R. M. S. ''Nascopie'' on September 11, 1927 while in Baffin Bay. This gavel was presented to the Lodge on March 9, 1931 and was made from a rafter taken from Faneuil Hall in 1805. This gavel was also used in our dedication.<br />
<br />
In 1937 we remodeled our quarters with a new kitchen upstairs together with Banquet Hall. The Association Hall downstairs was turned over to Rimmele's Market which was expanding. Also during 1936 the Needham Masonic Hall Association was dissolved and the Needham Masonic Corporation formed.<br />
<br />
In December 1939 Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel H. Wragg] was appointed Deputy Grand Master and a reception was held in his honor on January 26, 1940.<br />
<br />
On March 11, 1941 Wellesley Lodge met in our Lodge Hall for their regular meeting as a result of a fire in their location at Wellesley.<br />
<br />
At our June 9, 1941 meeting the Ancient Masonic Apron of Bro. Albert M. Miller was presented to the Lodge. This apron was 100 years old.<br />
<br />
On April 3, 1942 Wor. Leonard Dawson died . . . our Secretary from 1917 to 1942, 25 years.<br />
<br />
Due to the depression our membership was still suffering and as of August 31, 1942 we had but 387 brethren.<br />
<br />
Another big event took place on October 12, 1942 when the mortgage on the Masonic Apartments was burned. At the time the Necdham Masonic Corporation was formed in the year 1936, the mortgage was $19,000. Norfolk Lodge had contributed to this mortgage each year since 1936.<br />
The February 8, 1943 meeting was moved to the Banquet Hall as the Lodge Room temperature was 46° . . . due to oil rationing, we were without heat.<br />
<br />
On April 18, 1944 a Roll of Honor was dedicated to our members in the Armed Forces of World War II, with 22 members of Norfolk included.<br />
On January 15, 1945 a reception was held for M.W. Samuel Holmes Wragg who had been installed as Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts on December 27, 1944. Born in Needham on June 9, 1882, raised in Norfolk Lodge December 8, 1913, installed W.M. May 9, 1921; D. D. G. M. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABrighton5_1927-2003 Brighton Fifth District] in 1939, D. G. M. in 1940. Later established the Samuel Holmes Wragg Fund. He was elected to Honorary Membership on September 10, 1945 and honored as a 33° Mason in September of 1946.<br />
<br />
We honored another distinguished member on February 14, 1949. The evening was named "Worshipful Clifford M. Locke Night." He was raised on February 10, 1902, installed as W. M. 1915-16, Treasurer from June 10, 1918 to September 12, 1949, a total of 31 years. For more detailed events of the evening we refer to Norfolk Book of Minutes, page 297.<br />
<br />
Seventy-five years had passed since Norfolk Lodge was formed, and on Sunday, May 1, 1949, we met at the First Methodist Church for devotional services. On Friday the 6th of May we had a Grand Lodge visitation at the Town Hall (1949 Mass. 64-78) ; Monday, May 9th was Past Masters' Night with the Fellow Craft Degree; Friday, May 13th ended the celebration with the Anniversary Entertainment and Dance at the Town Hall.<br />
<br />
Over the past 75 years, 1081 members had signed the By-Laws. However, with deaths, demits and non-payment of dues during the depression years, and money unavailable for degrees, our gain was not rapid. As of May 6, 1949 on our 75th Anniversary, we had exactly 500 members.<br />
At the May 21, 1951 meeting, enlargement of quarters was again discussed ; however, the present building did not lend itself to major expansion. The Building Committee was alerted to look for future possibilities of new and larger quarters. The Committee later reported that a new location for the Lodge was found but the price was unreasonable.<br />
<br />
On January 14, 1952 a pair of door knockers used in the old Masonic Hall, in the Kingsbury Block, was presented to Dover Lodge for their new Lodge Room.<br />
<br />
A most unusual event was held on December 17, 1952. The four McCabe brothers, Raymond Welton McCabe, David Elton McCabe, Robert Gilbert McCabe, and William Ernest McCabe were raised by their father, Wor. A. Raymond McCabe, P.M. of Naval Lodge #184, Kittery, Maine.<br />
<br />
On January 4, 1953 we again suffered a fire loss to our Lodge Hall at 992 Great Plain Avenue. Damage was done to the Lodge Room and some of its furnishings. Repairs were made and the Lodge quarters were again available on February 1st. The fire loss was covered by insurance. Our January 14th meeting was held in the lodge rooms of Wellesley Lodge.<br />
<br />
On May 10, 1943 a plaque was presented by Wor. Clifford M. Locke and others to be attached to the Arch of Emblems which was donated by R.W. Horace A. Carter at the first meeting in the Lodge Room, October 1915.<br />
<br />
At the November 12, 1956 meeting, R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEaton Laurence E. Eaton], Grand Marshal of the Grand Lodge, was elected Honorary Member of Norfolk Lodge. Also during the year of 1957 we again honored R. W. Laurence E. Eaton as Senior Grand Warden and later Grand Master for the years 1960, 1961 and 1962.<br />
<br />
On September 9, 1957 we recorded the gift of a new Hammond Organ from the Wor. Arthur W. Littlehale Fund.<br />
<br />
The February 10, 1958 meeting records that Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJHall John N. Hall] was appointed District Deputy Grand Master of the Brighton Fifth District.<br />
<br />
On May 11, 1959 we dedicated the Wragg Room in memory of M. W. Samuel Holmes Wragg. A bequest was made by M. W. Wragg and the room was refurnished with display cabinets for various memorabilia. The records of March 7, 1960 indicate that Wor. Chester W. Eaton was honored with the Joseph Warren Medal.<br />
<br />
On September 10, 1960, a beautiful Altar Cloth with the seal of Norfolk Lodge embroidered thereon, made by Mrs. Marion Graham, was presented to the Lodge by her son, Wor. Carleton F. Graham.<br />
<br />
The September 12, 1960 meeting was cancelled due to a hurricane; dispensation was issued by M. W. Laurence E. Eaton, Grand Master. The meeting was held September 19th.<br />
<br />
The year ending on August 31, 1962 recorded 643 brethren in good standing.<br />
<br />
In January 1963 a reception was held in honor of R. W. John N. Hall, Senior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
At our meeting on September 14, 1964, the Needham Masonic Corporation reported the purchase of the property at 1101 Highland Avenue, Needham Heights, for future lodge use. A committee was appointed to study the situation.<br />
<br />
On June 10, 1968, a Building Committee was formed with M. W. Laurence E. Eaton, Chairman. A fund raising committee was formed with Bro. Frank P. Ring appointed as Chairman by Wor. Jerry Bond, Jr., Chairman of the Needham Masonic Corporation. Plans were drawn and bids submitted, but fund raising was stagnated until the fall of 1970.<br />
<br />
On December 7, 1970, a Special Meeting of the Lodge was held and it was resolved to authorize the Needham Masonic Corporation to proceed with construction of the new Lodge Hall on the condition that there would be no permanent mortgage or borrowing except in anticipation of pledges actually made.<br />
<br />
The Fund Raising Committee was activated on February 8, 1971. Plans were made for a fund drive to begin April 6th with a kick-off dinner.<br />
<br />
On September 3, 1971 the F'und Committee reported the sale of Great Plain Avenue Lodge building. Also reported that the minimum goal of the fund drive was met. Other commitments were pledged, plus further commitments from five other Masonic Bodies. On September 13, 1971 Norfolk Lodge voted to cancel the mortgage held on 1101 Highland Avenue and also voted to donate a sum from the Reserve Fund for the purpose of building a new Masonic Temple. Bids were received and accepted, and construction was scheduled to begin in November 1971, with completion planned for September 1972.<br />
<br />
On a beautiful day, November 20, 1971, ground was broken for the new Masonic Temple. Many Masonic and Town of Needham dignitaries were present for the event. After a prayer and a few words about the new temple, many of the dignitaries took their turn at the shovel.<br />
<br />
The new temple was finished on schedule and the dedication took place on September 6, 1972 (1972 Mass. 237-241). The National Colors were presented by the Manson H. Carter Post V. F. W. by Commander Andrew L. Lawson. A dinner was held in the new banquet hall for 250 brethren. Our guests at the dinner were M.W. Donald W. Vose, Grand Master, and his dedication suite. Fallowing the dinner, we met in the Lodge Room for a public dedication with 400 attending. The temple was dedicated by M.W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMVose Donald W. Vose], Grand Master, with the assistance of his dedication suite. Many distinguished Brethren were introduced, including Wor. Arland A. Dirlam, the architect; P. G. M. Laurence E. Eaton, Chairman of the Building Committee; M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPerry Joseph Earl Perry]; M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMOsgood A. Neill Osgood]; Wor. John G. Stanley, Master of Nehoiden Lodge; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPTurner Philip M. Turner], D. D. G. M. of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAWaltham5_1927-2003 Waltham Fifth District]; and R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPRolston Paul W. Rolston], D. D. G. M. of the Brighton Fifth District. The dedication suite also performed a ceremony at the cornerstone. Items were placed in the cornerstone by Wistaria Chapter, O.E.S.; Needham Chapter, Order of DeMolay; Nehoiden Lodge; Needham Assembly of Rainbow for Girls; Mt. Vernon Royal Arch Chapter; and Norfolk Lodge.<br />
<br />
Norfolk Lodge has been fortunate in its choice of secretaries for the past 100 years. We find that Wor. Edgar H. Bowers served 31 years. Wor. Leonard Dawson served 25 years; Wor. Chester W. Eaton served 32 years; and seven other Past Masters served a combined total of 12 years.<br />
We also find that our treasurers have long service to our Lodge. Wor. Eldridge G. Leach served 10 years; Wor. Emery Grover, 34 years; Wor. Clifford M. Locke, 31 years; Wor. Arthur L. King, 15 years; Wor. George H. Krech, 8 years; and other Past Masters a combined total of 2 years.<br />
<br />
Since our beginning in May 1874, we find that 1630 Brethren have signed our By-Laws, and that we now have a membership of 607.<br />
<br />
The past century has been one of tremendous growth. From kerosene lamps to electric lighting; from horse-power to atomic power; from stagecoach to moon rocket. During this century Norfolk Lodge has also made tremendous progress; from meetings in various halls, we now have a new and modern Lodge Hall with complete modern facilities for the use in our continued growth and to the growth of the other Masonic Bodies.<br />
<br />
==== 125TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, MAY 1999 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1999-35:''<br />
<br />
On April 6, 1874, a group of Masons formed a committee to establish a Masonic Lodge in Needham. Officers were elected on April 29, 1874. On May 18, 1874, the Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts granted a dispensation to hold meetings in Needham.<br />
<br />
The first regular meeting, under the dispensation, was held on May 20, 1874. Meetings were held on the "full of the moon" in Odd Fellows Hall, at the comer of Great Plain Avenue and Chapel Street. On July 1, 1875, Norfolk Lodge, A.F. & A.M., was duly constituted. There were 28 brethren present when the charter was presented by the Grand Lodge Officers.<br />
<br />
The early years saw Norfolk Lodge meeting at the old and new Odd Fellows Hall, Parker Hall, St. Paul's Chapel, Kingsbury Building and the Bourne Building, site of the Needham Theatre. Fires greatly influenced Norfolk Lodge's early history and meeting places. Many of our original records, documents and furniture were destroyed by three fires occurring in 1879, 1887, and 1893.<br />
<br />
In 1911, the Needham Masonic Hall Association purchased the land and building at 992 Great Plain Avenue. The building was renovated and Norfolk Lodge moved into its new home on the second floor in 1915. Norfolk Lodge continued to grow and, during our 50th anniversary year, 1924, the meeting facilities were enlarged to occupy the entire second floor of 992 Great Plain Avenue.<br />
<br />
We commenced the celebration of our 50th Anniversary on May 18, 1924, with a parade that was followed by a church service in Needham Town Hall. On May 19th, a reception was held in the Lodge Hall with Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFerrell Dudley H. Ferrell], Grand Master, presiding. A banquet followed in the Town Hall. The anniversary celebration also included a Ladies' Night at Town Hall. During 1924, we laid the cornerstone of the Congregational Church. At the time of our fiftieth anniversary, Norfolk Lodge had 474 members.<br />
<br />
Membership continued to grow and peaked at 502 shortly preceding 1929's "Black Tuesday". The annual dues during this period were $8.00 and Grand Lodge dues $2.00. During the Depression and well into World War II, the membership continued to fall and bottomed at 378 in 1943.<br />
<br />
Despite the Depression and the World War, the fifteen-year period from 1929 and 1944 remained an active and positive one for Norfolk Lodge. In 1931, our Masonic Service Committee was formed. In 1936, the Needham Masonic Corporation was created to replace the Needham Masonic Hall Association. The Lodge quarters were renovated in 1937 complete with a new kitchen and banquet Hall. Despite the difficult financial times, the mortgage on the Masonic Apartments was burned on October 12, 1942.<br />
<br />
Two notable items were presented to us during this fifteen-year period. In 1931, Wor. Walter K. Queen returned the gavel with which he opened Lodge in Little America. Not only was this gavel made from a rafter taken from Fanueil Hall in 1805 but was also used in our dedication. In 1941, the Ancient Masonic Apron of Bro. Albert M. Miller was presented to the Lodge; at the time, this apron was over 100 years old.<br />
<br />
In 1944, Norfolk was proud to dedicate a Roll of Honor to our members in the Armed Forces of World War II. Twenty-two of our members are listed.<br />
<br />
With the armistice and the return of peace, Norfolk Lodge membership again started growing and reached 500 brethren at the time of our 75th anniversary in 1949. The membership continued to grow and reached a peak of 657 in 1964.<br />
<br />
In 1964, the Needham Masonic Corporation purchased the property at 1101 Highland Avenue as the location of a new Lodge. A Committee was appointed to formulate plans.<br />
<br />
In 1968, building and fund raising committees were formed. Plans were drawn, and in December 1970, the Masonic Corporation was authorized to proceed with the construction. The Great Plain Avenue building that had served us for so many years was sold to assist in the funding of the new Lodge Hall. Ground was broken in November 1971 and the Lodge was dedicated on September 6, 1972.<br />
<br />
In 1974, we observed our 100th anniversary with several gala celebrations commencing with a worship service at Carter Memorial Methodist Church, an anniversary communication and a ladies' night dinner dance. During our May 13, 1974 communication, M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMVose Donald W. Vose], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, was received. Our celebration included the burning of the mortgage.<br />
<br />
During the years, Norfolk Lodge has been honored by having two of its members elected as Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts. They are M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel H. Wragg], 1945-1947 and M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEaton Laurence E. Eaton], 1960-1962. M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLovering David W. Lovering], Past Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Nehoiden Nehoiden] Lodge, now wears M. W. Samuel H. Wragg's Grand Masters Jewel.<br />
<br />
Three of our members have been Deputy Grand Master. They are M. W. Samuel H. Wragg, 1940; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCGordon Carl A. Gordon], 1993; and R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRSewall Ralph I. Sewall], 1998.<br />
<br />
Many of our members have served, and are serving, as officers and active participants in Scottish Rite, York Rite, and The Shrine, and many are 33° Masons.<br />
<br />
The past 25 years have witnessed the continued high attention to the tenets of our institution but with a continued change in our outward appearance to the community. Masonry at Norfolk Lodge encompasses excellent ritual as well as several charitable and community activities.<br />
<br />
We have been deeply involved with the Town of Needham in many events and are frequently called upon to participate or lend personnel and space. The Lodge members currently sponsor the Independence Day Pancake Breakfast and co-sponsor the Holiday Tree Sale with Nehoiden Lodge. We have contributed funds and/or labor to Needham Food Pantry, Needham DARE Program, Rosemary Tot Lot, Needham Library, Little League, Needham Public Schools, Boston Marathon Cancer Drive and Needham Educational Foundation Spelling Bee.<br />
<br />
Our involvement with other groups and participation in their events include Boy Scouts of America, Order of Rainbow, DeMolay, Needham Council for Aging, Needham Scouters' Club, Girl Scouts of America and Scouting for Food Collection.<br />
<br />
Culture has changed during the past 25 years. New life-styles, living arrangements, and technologies have placed additional demands on the use of valuable free time. Organizations that meet on a regular basis during the evenings have found it difficult to attract and maintain their membership. Freemasonry, notwithstanding, remains a strong and vital part of Needham's culture and lifestyle. During the past five years, our membership has stabilized at about 300. We are attracting men of all ages and maintaining an interesting program, blending the ancient Masonic ritual with new and modern thoughts and technologies. The brethren work together on all projects from building a tool shed to retiling the Lodge Hall ceiling to the semi-annual Lodge cleanups.<br />
<br />
Norfolk Lodge, A.F. & A.M., has enjoyed a magnificent history and looks forward to the future with optimism and the commitment to continue the high Masonic values which have brought us through our first 125 years.<br />

<br />
A Special Communication of the M. W. Grand Lodge of Massachusetts was held at Needham, on Thursday afternoon, the 1st inst., for the purpose of constituting Norfolk Lodge and installing its officers. The M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEverett Grand Master] conducted the services. The ceremony of constituting the Lodge was performed in the Lodge-room, and was, of course, in private.

<br />
==== JUNIOR GRAND WARDEN RECEPTION, JANUARY 1919 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. XIV, No. 5, February 1919, Page 156:''<br />
<br />
Norfolk Lodge, A. F. & A. M. of Needham has had double honor come to it by the election of one of its Past Masters, Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHCarter Horace A. Carter], to the office of Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and also to the Governor's Council of the State. On Monday evening, January 13, the lodge received a social and fraternal visit from the Grand Lodge in honor of the occasion and upwards of 200 brethren were present, the attendance being limited by the capacity of the room. At the supper which preceded the exercises Rt. Wor. Rev. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEHorton Edward A. Horton], Senior Grand Chaplain, invoked the divine blessing and vocal music was given by a quartet. At the lodge session the guests were escorted into the lodge room by a committee of past masters with the Rt. Wor. Bro. Emery Grover as chairman. Bro. Grover in his usual felicitous manner presented the distinguished visitors, who were warmly welcomed on behalf of the lodge by Wor. Mas. Harley E. Crisp. He expressed the lodge's appreciation of the honor conferred upon it and upon Bro. Carter by their visit and assured them that this further proof of their interest in Norfolk lodge and its members would rivet still closer the bonds that bound them together. He invited the Grand Master to the chair and the other visitors to the seats of honor. The guests included: Most Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLAbbott Leon M. Abbott], Grand Master; Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLBGilman Benjamin Gilman], Senior Grand Warden; Rt. Wor. Horace A. Carter, Junior Grand Warden; Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFHamilton Frederick Hamilton], Grand Secretary; Rt. Wor. Rev. Edward A. Horton, Senior Grand Chaplain; Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEWest Edward N. West] , Grand Marshal; Rt. Wor. George H. Dale, D. D. G. M., and other distinguished members of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
After the applause had subsided Grand Master Abbott, in an address scintillating with wit and wisdom, delivered the fraternal greetings of the Grand Lodge to the assembled brethren in general and to Bro. Carter in particular. It was a real pleasure to do honor to such a man, who by his devotion to Masonry, his virile patriotism and his unselfish labors in all good causes, had made a reputation for himself as one who was ever ready to serve others rather than himself; who sought office not for the fleeting glory that might go with it, but rather for the opportunities it gave the holder for the exercise of the cardinal virtues. It had been his good fortune and rare privilege to be closely associated with Bro. Carter in manj ways and he had always found him a man of keen business insight and sound judgment and with a heart aching to help those less fortunate than himself. His devotion to Masonry was known to all the craft and his associates in the Grand Lodge were proud to have him in their midst. He complimented Norfolk Lodge on the good work they had done and urged them not to weary in well doing. Rt. Wor. Senior Grand Warden Bro. Gilman, Rt. Wor. Grand Secretary Bro. Hamilton and Senior Grand Chaplain Bro. Rev. E. A. Horton followed along similar lines, each enlivening the proceeding's with wise humor and appropriate eloquence.<br />
<br />
Rt. Wor. Junior Grand Warden H. A. Carter received an ovation on rising to respond. He said that the speakers had been all too kind in their remarks regarding him. He had tried in his humble way to be of service to the craft and to his fellow man and was not worthy of the encomiums that were being heaped upon him. However, he thanked them all most sincerely for their kindness and for the honors they had conferred upon him and no effort should be wanting on his part to perform faithfully the duties entrusted to him. During the evening another interesting ceremony took place when the Rt. Wor. Brother Emery Grover, who was one of the charter members of the lodge, presented it with a wax impression of the original seal of the lodge, taken at the time the lodge was instituted and the seal made and which had been in his possession ever since. The seal now used was not the original seal, which was injured by fire in the eighties and had to be recut so that there were slight variations from the original. The seal of the lodge bore the coat of arms of one Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk, who had been prominent in English Freemasonry, and it was after him the lodge was named and not after Norfolk county, as was often supposed.<br />
<br />
Wor. Master H. E. Crisp accepted the gift on behalf of the lodge as another of the many tokens of Brother Grover's perennial interest in the lodge and its doings.<br />
<br />
Altogether the evening will be long remembered by those fortunate enough to be present.<br />
<br />
==== PRESENTATIONS, APRIL 1920 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. XV, No. 7, April 1920, Page 220:''<br />
<br />
A very pleasant Masonic occasion was held in Norfolk Lodge, A. F. & A. M., Needham, on Saturday, April 24, 1920. The lodge was opened at 4.00 o'clock and the Entered apprentice degree conferred on five candidates sfter wh-L about two hundred members and guests under escort of the Marshal were conducted to a dinner which had been prepared.<br />
<br />
After dinner the Bay State Quartette assisted by a lady reader gave an hour's entertainment which was enjoyed by ail present. There were seated at the head table Rt. Wor.

[http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Grand Master], Wor. Aaron Twigg and Wor. Edgar H. Bowers, the only two living charter members of Norfolk Lodge. Wor. Bro. Twigg surprised the company present by singing several selections in a fine tenor voice although nearly 80 years of age, one selection being from ''II Trovatore'' which was finely rendered and which brought every one present to his feet in a round of applause.<br />
<br />
After the banquet and social hour the brethren reassembled in the lodge room where Rt. Wor. Bro. Carter was received in accordance with Masonic practice. Two seats of honor had been placed near the East for Wor. Bro. Bowers and Wor. Bro. Twigg and in very choice words Rt. Wor. Bro. Carter stated that his mission was to present on behalf of the Most Wor. Grand Master two Henry Price medals to the two brothers who had been actively engaged in Masonic work for over fifty years. He explained briefly the Masonic life of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrice Henry Price] and spoke of the valuable service rendered the craft by Wor. Brothers Bowers and Twigg, how both had served the town as selectman for many years, besides holding positions of trust in the County.<br />
<br />
The Secretary read the Masonic records of both brothers which showed that:<br />

Master. Bro. Bowers served as an officer in Norfolk Lodge for thirty-eight years, serving as Secretary from 1882 to 1888 and again from 1893 to 1916, in all a period of thirty-one years. When he retired from active duty as an officer the lodge presented him with past secretary's gold jewel bearing also the Past Master's emblem. In accepting this jewel he stated "That he would be always ready for service." Rt. Wor. Bro. Carter then pinned on the breasts of the Wor. Brothers the Henry Price medals and both expressed their appreciation to tl Grand Lodge for the honor conferred, being recipients of jewels that meant much, both gave many reminiscences which was of great interest to the brethren present.<br />
<br />
A reception was then given the distinguished brothers after which they retired with the Grand Lodge representatives, during which time the company sang ''Auld Lang Syne'' led by the Bay State Quartette.<br />
<br />
Among others present were two brothers of Wor. Bro. Aaron Twigg, both members of Norfolk Lodge, Wor. John L. Twigg and Bro. George Twigg, also two sons, Bro. Harry L. Twigg, J.

<br />
==== PRESENTATIONS, APRIL 1924 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. XIX, No. 8, May 1924, Page 251:''<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting of Norfolk Lodge, A. F. & A. M., Needham, Mass., the officers of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Constellation Constellation] Lodge of Dedham, which is the mother of Norfolk Lodge, conferred the second degree on several candidates.<br />
<br />
A pleasant feature of the evening was the presentation of three unusual gifts. Past Master Theodore Mcintosh loaned to the lodge for an indefinite period a Masonic apron, a lambskin and a diploma, belonging to his grandfather, Curtis Mcintosh of Needham. The diploma was issued by the old Constellation Lodge, 106 years ago in 1818, on the occasion when Mr. Mcintosh was made a master Mason.<br />
<br />
Past Master Leonard Dawson, present secretary of the lodge, was presented by Wor. Bro. George A. Adams, on behalf of the menbers, with a Past Master's apron, in recognition of his many services to the lodge in the Past 30 years. Mr. Dawson, although taken by surprise, managed to convey his appreciation of the gift in his usual pleasing manner.<br />
<br />
The lodge also received from Past Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHCarter Horace A. Carter], who is on a world tour, the gift of a gavel and small ashlar. The ashlar and head of the gavel are made of stone from King Solomon's quarries, in Jerusalem. The handle of the gavel is made of olive wood. Both are enclosed in handsome cases. The members and guests examined these gifts with much interest.<br />

''From '''TROWEL''', February 1984, Page 25:''<br />
<br />
Aiming to follow the English Masonic tradition of a small Lodge with every member participating in its work, three dozen of the busiest Masons in Massachusetts have organized the Masters Lodge, A. F. & A. M. The Lodge will meet at the Masonic Temple in Newtonville, and all of its charter members will continue as active members of other Lodges in the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAWaltham5_1927-2003 Fifth Masonic District].<br />
<br />
Three Grand Masters lead the new Lodge, with M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMaxwell Stanley Fielding Maxwell] as Master, M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMVose Donald W. Vose] as Senior Warden and M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBerquist J. Philip Berquist] as Junior Warden. All of the members are Past Masters and past or present Grand Lodge officers.<br />
<br />
Membership in the Masters Lodge is limited to 50, and all members are pledged to attend every meeting. Formation of similar small Lodges is under consideration in other Masonic Districts.<br />
<br />
Each of the petitioners seeking a dispensation to form this Lodge committed himself to demonstrate that small Lodges can prosper, that busy Masons can find the time to work if they have the interest, and that the English tradition of small, congenial memberships can contribute to the success of Masonry in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
Every member of the Masters Lodge holds an office or committee assignment. Among the officers are: <br />
* R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPTurner Philip M. Turner], Treasurer; <br />
* R. W. William N. Woodland, Secretary; <br />

==== CONSTITUTION OF LODGE, NOVEMBER 1984 ====<br />
<br />
''From '''TROWEL''', Spring 1985, Page 8:''<br />
<br />
On Nov. 21, 1984, M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRichardson David B. Richardson] and Grand Lodge officers constituted the first Lodge in Massachusetts in ten years and installed the officers of The Masters Lodge, formed to emphasize the belief that even the busiest of men can find the time for something worthwhile.<br />
<br />
Installed as the first Worshipful Master was M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMaxwell Stanley F. Maxwell]; as Senior Warden, M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMVose Donald W. Vose]; and as Junior Warden, M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBerquist J. Philip Berquist], all Past Grand Masters. All thirty-six Charter Members were present for the ceremonies.<br />
<br />
Dedication ceremonies were also held for the Great Lights presented to the Lodge by Mrs. Henry D. Harmon in memory of her late husband, R. W. Bro. Harmon, a Past D. D. G. M. of the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABrighton5_1927-2003 Brighton Fifth Masonic District].<br />
<br />
The Masters Lodge operates in the English tradition, which requires a letter of excuse if a member is to be absent from a meeting and for a visitor to have a written invitation from the Master.<br />
<br />
'''TROWEL''' wishes for this new Lodge every success in its unique venture.<br />

<br />
Dalhousie Lodge was formed June 25, 1860. There were several preliminary gatherings of which there are no records. Whether it was the intention of the lodge to commemorate the date of some preliminary meeting or that it was the most convenient time for the celebration, the anniversary exercises were pushed forward several days previous to the accepted date of founding and held on Wednesday, June 1, in the Masonic Temple of Newton.<br />
<br />
These exercises were preceded by a church service. Sunday. May 20th. The church service included addresses by Worshipful Master Charles K. Hatfield and Rev. Albert Hammatt. There was also some excellent music by a double quartette with Brother Henry T. Wade at the organ.<br />
<br />
The anniversary exercises on Wednesday. June llth. began at 5 o'clock and included an address of welcome by Worshipful Master Charles E. Hatfield, an address by Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFlanders Dana J. Flanders], an historical address by Lewis S. Binney and addresses by Past Grand Masters [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHolmes Edwin B. Holmes] and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGallagher Charles T. Gallagher]. Music was provided by two male quartettes, an orchestra and the organ. under the direction of Brother Henry T. Wade.<br />
<br />
No Masonic organization can formally observe any of its anniversaries, whether decades or centuries, without adding something to the value of Masonic influence and laying foundation for the gratitude of later generations long after the actors of the present time shall have found their "Chamber in the silent hall of Death."<br />
<br />
This thought is often brought to the mind of the Masonic historian who looks in vain for light on the beginning of an organization where many years of usefulness have made it the object of respectful veneration.<br />
<br />
There is, however, a satisfaction in believing that the more complete lodge records of the present day, with the printed statistics of Grand and subordinate lodges, giving the most important details of lodge organization, and often the names of every member. will make the work of future historians much easier than that of their predecessor. Every thoughtful Mason must appreciate the work now being done by lodges to bring their histories up to the present time.<br />
<br />
A notable example of work in this direction has been witnessed in the exercises connected with the recent semi-centennial of Dalhousie Lodge of Newton, Massachusetts. This event has been long anticipated by the officers and brethren of Dalhousie Lodge and generous preparations made for observing it in a manner that would reflect credit on the lodge and contribute to the dignity of freemasonry. An able committee consisting of Worshipful Brethren, H. N. Milliken, C. E. Hatfield and C. R. Hayes were appointed to prepare for the event. Ample funds were provided and every detail carefully considered. Every Feature was crowned with success, The souvenir history of the lodge which was presented to each guest deserves special mention, both on account of the merits of the history and the beauty of the book.<br />
<br />
The reception of Grand Master Flanders was most cordial. He was conducted to the lodge by a Committee of past masters.

[http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEHorton Edward A. Horton] and Rev. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRPBush R. Perry Bush], D. D., Grand Marshal [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHBallard Harry P. Ballard] and a large number of other officers and members of the Grand Lodge. In addition to those mentioned many lodges near by were represented by their Masters.<br />
<br />
The Worshipful Master said the lodge deemed it an especial privilege to welcome the Grand Master.<br />
<br />
Grand Master Flanders declared he was glad to participate with Dalhousie in its semi-centennial, and rejoice with it in its 50 years of prosperity.<br />
<br />
Past Grand Master Holmes spoke of the ties of friendship that bound him to Worshipful Master Hatfield, who had been introduced by him to Masonry, and alluded also to the ties that bound him to the lodge, for he, as the head of the craft, had laid the corner stone of their beautiful building.<br />
<br />
"One whom we all know and love to honor; our good friend," was the introduction of Fast Grand Master Gallagher to the lodge from the Master. The distinguished visitor's address sparkled with anecdotes, into which he moved sentiment by referring to the noble founders of the Lodge and their deeds, and made a thoughtful allusion to the noble name it bore. No feature of the celebration was of more importance than the historical address of Brother Lewis E. Binney, which the lodge caused to be printed in full in recognition of its great merit. The historian began his address with a notice of the Country's progress in the various fields of science, invention and art and other great events thai Bhad taken place during the last half century saying, "Freemasonry, pursuing the quiet, even tenor of its way, fulfilling its high missions of the attainment of nobler manhood, the diffusing of charity and the strengthening of the mystic ties of fraternal brotherhood has shared in this great progress; our Order has increased manifold in numbers; the simple lodge room of fifty years ago is superseded today by the beautiful temple with its splendid furnishings. The possibilities of electricity and the charm of music are utilized as newer before as accessories to enhance the beauty and impressiveness of our forms and ceremonies. A deeper interest, an increased earnestness, and a more anient devotion to the principles of our institution pervade the Craft; while the establishment of homes for the aged and infirm marks an advanced step in the noble work of charity and humanity."<br />
<br />
The business of the first meeting of the lodge, as stated in the Call, was to show an appropriate recognition of St. John's Day — to adopt and sign a code of by-laws, — to choose officers and to hear reports of committees on Masonic hall and any other business that may come before the meeting. It was voted that the Lodge be called "Dalhousie Lodge of Newton." [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge William D. Coolidge], afterward Grand Master of the Grand Lodge, was chosen Worshipful Master; Albert A. Kendall, Senior Warden; Silas H. Munson, Junior Warden; Isaac Cary, Treasurer: Horatio F. Allen, Secretary. The appointed officers were Adin B. Underwood, Senior Deacon; Chester H. Graves, Junior Deacon; George E. Bridges, Senior Steward; O. S. Sanord, Junior Steward and W. D. Thayer, Marshal.<br />
<br />
The youngest member of the lodge was required to serve as Sentinel. At a subsequent meeting J. B. Lovett was appointed Tyler and Rev. N. G. Allen, Chaplain. The fee for the degree was fixed at $25.00 — and for membership $3.00. The regular communications of the lodge were held on Wednesday evenings on or before the full of the moon. The petition for a dispensation for forming the lodge was signed by thirty-eight brethren. It was received bj the lodge September 26, 1860. The officers were authorized to apply for a charter May 22. 1861, and on June 24, 1861, the hall was formally dedicated and the "Lodge duly constituted and consecrated," by Most Worshipful William D. Coolidge who was then Grand Master, having resigned as Worshipful Master of Dalhousie Lodge in December, 1860.<br />
<br />
In the evening a public installation was held, the ladies being present. Albert A. Kendall was first Worshipful Master under the charter. There are twenty-seven names on the char ter. The date of the charter was first June 24, 1861 with precedence in tin Grand Lodge and elsewhere of the same date. It was amended by Grand Lodge in 1871 so as to give precedence from August 3, 1860, the date of the dispensation; it was still further amended in 1892 by changing the date of the charter to June 12, 1861, the date the charter was granted.<br />
<br />
During the past fifty years 1139 brothers have signed the by-laws and become members of the lodge. None of the charter members are living, the last, Francis D. Hall, died about two years ago. Of the first one hundred brethren who signed the by-laws only four are living and members of the lodge. The first name in the list of the honored dead is that of Albert A. Kendall, the first Worshipful Master under the charter, who was killed in the Civil War in the second term of his office as Master of the Lodge. The lodge now has 642 members. Thirty-one brethren liavc served as Worshipful Master of the lodge of whom twenty are living. Brother Binney devotes a considerable attention to the Earl of Dalhotisie for whom the lodge was named and intimates that some record regarding him that has heretofore been accepted as correct may not have been so.<br />
<br />
The closing portion of the address was devoted to "Our Honored Dead," "The Civil War" and the "Lodge Room." Want of space prevents further notice except to say that tribute was paid to George P. Whitmore, president and Edward P. Hatch, treasurer, and the directors of the building association for their excellent service in the management of the affairs of the present building.<br />
<br />
The closing words of the historian recognized the glory of past achievements and expressed a hopeful confidence for the future.<br />
<br />
An excellent banquet completed the exercises. Addresses by officers of the<br />
Grand Lodge and good music charmed the time away until parting when the brethren separated with words of good cheer and hopeful prophecy for the future of Dalhousie Lodge.<br />
<br />
==== 75TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, JUNE 1935 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1935-55:''<br />
<br />
''By Wor. Wallace C. Boyden.''<br />
<br />
The anniversary of an individual, a married couple, or an institution has meaning not simply nor mainly because of the number of years that have passed. Its real significance lies in what has happened during those years, the progress made, service rendered, ideals followed, steadfastness of living shown, and the health, vigor, and outlook present at the time of the anniversary.<br />
<br />
Today we are commemorating the founding of Dalhousie Lodge in 1860. How long ago is, or was, 1860? Seventy-five years, you say. But that does not tell us much. Perhaps we may be helped to a clearer conception by taking a little trip back through the years until we stand by the side of our Brethren who petitioned in that year to establish a Blue Lodge in the town of Newton.<br />
<br />
We are starting, then, for a compact, well-governed, well-schooled, suburban city of 70,000 inhabitants, rightly named the "Garden City," with its comfortable homes, beautiful gardens, and well-kept grounds. These homes are equipped with a host of modern scientific appliances which make housekeeping in its various phases increasingly easy and efficient. One can sit at his desk and talk with friends in any part of the country at a moment's notice; or, ensconced in a comfortable easy-chair before the open fire, turn on the radio and hear the latest news from all parts of the world, attend lectures on almost any subject desired, and listen to the Symphony concert or any other kind of music suited to his taste. Even if he is a temporary or permanent shut-in, these outside occurrences, including divine service in church, cathedral, and synagogue, are open and free for his enjoyment. Groceries and other necessities of the home can be ordered by telephone and delivered at the door without charge. Ashes, garbage, snow on the streets and sidewalks are cared for by the city. Would one travel from place to place, he can find means at his service of great variety, and equipped to any degree of luxuriousness and comfort which he may desire; high-power automobiles, electric cars, auto-busses, trains with Pullman equipment and streamlined, steamships, yachts, airplanes.<br />
<br />
These are a few of the salient characteristics of life at this end of our journey. As we move on toward our earlier date, one by one they disappear, the streamlined train, the airplane, radio, automobile, electric car, telephone, etc., ''not'' because they have become ''out-of-date'', but because, at each stage of our journey, one or more of them have not yet ''come into date''. When finally, at the end of our journey, we reach our Brethren of 1860, ''every one'' of these features has gone from life in this community. A moment's consideration of these tremendous changes in life conditions will reveal what it has cost in inventiveness, research, patient labor, energy, and time to create and put into effective action, one by one, these marvelous and really revolutionary agencies. In this way it is possible, perhaps, to come to some fairly definite idea of how far away from the present is the date, 1860, which we are celebrating today.<br />
<br />
With all those features absent, which are so familiar and necessary to us, what was Newton at that time? A quiet but enterprising town of 8,000 inhabitants, settled in seven separate villages: Newton Corner, Newtonville, West Newton, Auburndale, and Lower Falls along the northern border of the town; Newton Centre and Upper Falls on the south side. All the great central portion of the town was open fields and woods with few houses. Washington and Watertown Streets ran through the town on the north side as at present. There was no through road on the south side, Beacon Street being only "a proposed road" from Newton Centre to Chestnut Street. Centre Street crossed the town from Newton Corner to Newton Centre, Chestnut Street from West Newton to Upper Falls, but Walnut Street extended only to Homer Street.<br />
<br />
The Boston and Worcester Railroad, opened some twenty-five years earlier, ran a few trains to and from Boston daily to accommodate the villages on the north side, while the Charles River railroad gave a very limited service to the villages on the south side as far as Brookline. There were two stagecoach or bus lines from Newton Centre and Newton Corner to Boston. Very simple life conditions in which "good old Dobbin" and "Shanks' mare" were the chief means of travel.<br />
<br />
The Masonic Lodges in existence at that time which were so situated as to be at all convenient for members residing in Newton were few in number. There were eight in the center of Boston, and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=BethesdaB Bethesda] in Brighton; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Monitor Monitor], Waltham; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Pequossette Pequossette], Watertown; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Meridian Meridian], Natick; and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicable], Cambridge.<br />
<br />
Such is the background which must be kept in mind as we sketch rapidly and briefly some of the high points in the history of Dalhousie during these seventy-five years.<br />
<br />
On June 25, 1860, the Newton Brethren, assembled in Temple Hall on the west side of Newtonville Square beside the Boston &; Albany railroad, voted to apply to the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Most Worshipful Grand Master] for a Dispensation establishing a Blue Lodge to be designated, "Dalhousie Lodge of Newton." The petition was signed by thirty-eight Brethren, headed by Right Worshipful Brother [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge William D. Coolidge]. The Dispensation was granted and Brother Coolidge chosen as Worshipful Master. At the regular meeting in December Brother Coolidge informed the Lodge that he had been elected Most Worshipful Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and could no longer act as Worshipful Master for them. Worshipful Brother [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPJones Peter C. Jones], Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Columbian Columbian] Lodge, of Boston, was chosen his successor, and he, two years later, was elected Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge. Thus is made evident the quality of leadership which the Lodge enjoyed in its early years. A most auspicious opening of a distinguished career, if we may so speak of the life of an institution.<br />
<br />
Dalhousie had the unique experience of having its charter signed, the Lodge itself constituted and consecrated, its hall dedicated, and its first officers installed by one of its number as Most Worshipful Grand Master. Brother Coolidge has been very appropriately called the "Father of Dalhousie Lodge," as it was due to his ardent devotion to Freemasonry in Newton and his exertions in its behalf that the Lodge was formed. His home was at the corner of Walnut Street and Highland Avenue, which doubtless accounts for the fact that the Lodge-room has always been located in Newtonville. He presented the Lodge with the Holy Bible, Square, and Compasses at the time of its organization and was elected an Honorary Member on October 16, 1861. His business of wool-buying called him frequently to the South, and at the opening of the Civil War, a time when a Massachusetts man was in grave peril in that section of the country, his high Masonic standing proved of great value to him. In personal appearance a man of large stature and commanding presence, but dignified and gentle in manner, his eloquence on all occasions, whether installing the officers, delivering the charge to the candidates, or addressing the Lodge upon matters concerning the good of the Order, never failed to impress his hearers. The Brethren will be interested to look at the picture, presented to the Lodge in 1871, and which hangs upon our walls, showing him as Most Worshipful Grand Master, surrounded by the officers of the Grand Lodge in 1861. This picture is of especial interest and value because it is the oldest photograph extant of a Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, taken when surrounded by his suite of Grand Officers. Worshipful Brother Peter C. Jones, and Brother Isaac Cary, Treasurer of Dalhousie under Dispensation, also appear in the group.<br />
<br />
Brother Adin B. Underwood was an active worker with Brother Coolidge in the establishment of Dalhousie Lodge. It was he who suggested the name or' Dalhousie for the new Lodge. He was Secretary at the initial meeting, and served as Senior Deacon while the Lodge worked Under Dispensation. He was a Charter member, not only of the Lodge, but later of the Chapter and Commandery, and was the first High Priest of Newton Royal Arch Chapter. A photograph of him with his fellow officers of the Chapter hangs on our walls.<br />
One other of these early Brethren, John L. Roberts, should be mentioned in appreciation of his loyal devotion to Dalhousie and his valuable service rendered the Lodge in other ways than through official position. He was noted for his hospitality, and his home, the famous General Hull mansion, where he delighted in entertaining the Lodge's Masonic guests, was the scene of many social Masonic gatherings within its spacious halls. In those days, when Lodge accommodations were limited and scantily furnished, it is easy to understand that Brother Roberts' generous hospitality was invaluable in promoting the brotherly spirit proper to Freemasonry. His home was situated on the lot, diagonally across from our present building, on Walnut Street, extending from Austin Street to the Boston & Albany railroad tracks. After his death it became the home of the Newton Club.<br />
<br />
The list of Charter members and of the first officers, as well as a brief account of the Earl of Dalhousie for whom the Lodge was named, can be found in full in the history of Brother Lewis E. Binney, given at the fiftieth anniversary in 1910.<br />
<br />
Dp to the year 1876 the conferring of the degrees did not entitle those receiving them to membership in the Lodge, it being required afterwards to apply for and be elected to membership. In accordance with Masonic custom of that time, the regular communications of the Lodge were held on Wednesday evenings on or before the full of the moon.<br />
<br />
Throughout these seventy-five years of its existence, Dalhousie has maintained a high standard of requirement for membership, strictly in accord with the best Masonic traditions and principles. As a result the character of its membership has always been a matter of just pride, representing as it does the best element of citizenship in the community: men who have filled the highest office in the municipal government of the city of Newton, who have served in the Senate and House of Representatives of the state and national governments; clergymen and professors who have attained eminence in the religious and educational life of the country; members of the legal and medical professions, and citizens prominent in financial, mercantile, and educational circles in this vicinity.<br />
<br />
The number of members has been steadily and normally increasing through the years until it reached its maximum, 1120, in 1920. Since then it has dropped somewhat each year, especially during the last three years, leaving the present membership 980. Dalhousie still stands as one of the largest Lodges in Massachusetts, only four exceeding it in size: [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Palestine Palestine], Everett; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Athelstan Athelstan], Worcester; [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountCarmel Mt. Carmel], Lynn; and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RoswellLee Roswell Lee], Springfield. The annual addition to membership reached its peak of 102 in 1920. In that year the third Newton Blue Lodge, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Norumbega Norumbega], was constituted; the second, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Fraternity Fraternity], having been started in 1875. During the seventy-five years, 2180 Brothers have signed the by-laws and become members of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
It is an interesting fact that during the early years Dalhousie seemed to be closely associated with the churches of the community. Its first home was in the Swedenborgian chapel on the second floor of a small building near the station on Bowers Street. In 1861 it moved to the upper story of the newly erected Methodist church on the corner of Washington Street and Central Avenue, which building was sold seven years later to the Central Congregational church. It was the Lodge-room in this building that was dedicated June 24, 1861, very plainly furnished and heated by a large pyramid stove in one corner, presenting as strong a contrast to our present quarters as was shown in the pictures of Newton in 1860 and 1935.<br />
<br />
In 1874 ex-Governor William Claflin built what was known as Central Block, a large three-and-a-half-story wooden building on the corner of Washington and Walnut Streets, completing the upper portion for the accommodation of the Masons, who had then outgrown their quarters in the church. These handsomely furnished apartments, consisting of a large main hall, a smaller hall, an armory, reception rooms, etc., seemed adequate to the requirements of the Fraternity for many years. This hall was dedicated by the Grand Master on May 12, 1875.<br />
<br />
Twenty years later, however, these quarters were found to be quite inadequate, besides carrying an undesirably great fire risk. Negotiations with the proprietor for certain improvements and additional safety appliances failed. It was therefore decided to undertake the erection of a Masonic Temple in Newtonville suitable to the needs of the several Masonic bodies which would use it.<br />
<br />
Under the leadership of Worshipful Brother George P. Whitmore, Right Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLAHarwood Albert L. Harwood], and Brother Edward P. Hatch, steps were taken to secure the lot and arrangements made to erect the present building so well-known to us all. As the Masonic bodies which were interested in the movement were not incorporated, and could not hold real estate by legal title, it became necessary to form a stock company. On December 24, 1895, the Newton Masonic Hall Association was accordingly incorporated to erect the building, although the details were first to be submitted to the several Masonic organizations for approval. The corner-stone was laid September 23, 1896, and a year later, on October 6, 1897, the Lodge assembled for the last time in their old apartments in Central Block and marched to the new building, where the ceremony of dedication was performed by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHutchinson Charles C. Hutchinson], Grand Master; the address upon the occasion being delivered by Right Worshipful Brother Albert L. Harwood. At that time this Temple was not excelled by any other Masonic Temple in New England, and perhaps in the country, in convenience and beauty of appointments. It still stands as among the finest. Its erection was an undertaking of great magnitude, the success of which is due in no small measure to the untiring efforts and able direction of Worshipful Brother George P. Whitmore, the President of the Association.<br />
<br />
Then came the serious problem of financing the enterprise, which included not only caring for the debt which had been incurred of necessity, but also maintaining the property in efficient condition. This was in the hands of the Masonic Hall Association. The Brethren were very loyal in their support of the enterprise, taking stock as individuals and as Masonic bodies, with no expectation of any return in dividends. Of course this undertaking was the responsibility of the Masonic Fraternity and not of any one of the bodies. However, because Dalhousie was the oldest and largest of these it played a large part in the enterprise. Main of its Brethren gave faithfully and freely of their time, and valuable service during long periods as Directors of the Association in the successful management of the affairs of the building for the next twenty-five years.<br />
<br />
In the fall of 1920 the Directors of the Association felt that the situation demanded a more energetic and united effort toward the reduction of the indebtedness and its eventual removal. Accordingly, representatives chosen by the various bodies were called together and the Newton Masonic Entertainment Committee was formed, whose primary object was to care for the raising of the annual payments due on the mortgage bonds. A little over a year later the name of this organization was changed to the Newton Masonic Executive Council and its purpose expanded to the final elimination of all indebtedness on the building.<br />
<br />
At the same time there grew up a strong feeling that the basic interest in the building lay with the Masonic bodies who used it, and, therefore, that its control should rest entirely with them rather than include a large number of individual stockholders. Accordingly, on April 21, 1922, the Newton Masonic Hall Association was replaced by the Newton Masonic Associates, Incorporated, the incorporators being seven chosen representatives of the Masonic bodies. The first officers of this new Organization were:<br />
* President, George Royal Pulsifer.<br />
* Vice-President, Fred M. Blanchard.<br />
* Secretary-Treasurer, J. Edward Marsters.<br />
* Directors, Frederick S. Fairchild, Warren W. Loomis, George L. Sleeper, and Christopher I. Flye.<br />
<br />
In 1923 the Newton Masonic Executive Council organized a definite campaign for the elimination of the indebtedness, under the able direction of its President, Austin H. Decatur, who died just as the end was in sight. On October 7, 1927, the mortgage was burned with fitting ceremonies, Right Worshipful Fred M. Blanchard, President of the Associates, serving as master of ceremonies. Right Worshipful Albert L. Harwood, who gave the address at the dedication of the Temple, spoke also on this joyous occasion. Worshipful Brother John W. Fisher and Brother J. Cheever Fuller, two of the original directors of the Association, bad the honor of consigning the mortgage to the flames. The spirit of the occasion is well expressed by the following quotation from words spoken that evening:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Newton Masons may justly take pride in the accomplishment which we celebrate tonight, for not only has a heavy burden been forever removed, but in its place has been created a real asset capable of being efficiently used for the benefit of the Fraternity to which it is dedicated."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Born, as it were, in the shadow of the impending four-year Civil War, Dalhousie early met the test of its patriotic spirit, and right royally did its members respond to the call of duty. Into this service they were led by the first Worshipful Master, Albert A. Kendall, who enlisted as a surgeon during his first year as Master. Fleeted for a second term during his absence, his reply of acceptance was written and sent on the very day of his death at the Battle of Antietam. In all later calls from the country for service, our Brethren have done their part with honor.<br />
<br />
In accord with the true Masonic spirit, Dalhousie established and has developed a Charity Fund of sufficient size for its income to care for all the needy Brethren even during these recent years of special distress. It is carefully and sympathetically administered by a Board of Trustees, consisting of the presiding Master and two others. Dalhousie has done its share in all the benevolent enterprises of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
Such a life of honorable achievement as Dalhousie Lodge has had comes not with case or by chance. We of the present should recognize that the blessings which we enjoy have been "bought with a price." On an occasion like this acknowledgment should be made of our indebtedness to the long list of Brethren who have wrought so faithfully and unstintingly that we might enjoy.<br />
<br />
There are fifty-five Past Masters of the Lodge, of whom twenty-eight arc living. It should be borne in mind that while it is a great honor to be elected Worshipful Master of such a Lodge as Dalhousie, the position carries with it a large burden of responsibility and an arduous amount of work. During the first thirty-seven years the term of service of the Masters was uniformly two years, while since that time it has been but one year. But note, please, that it has been the custom of this Lodge to start a new man in at the lowest station and expect him to travel upward through the various positions until at last he arrives at the East. This means that each Past Master has served in office all the way from seven to fourteen years. This is no small contribution to the life of the Lodge. The Lodge has been honored by having live of its Past Masters appointed to the position of District Deputy Grand Master: Albert L. Harwood, George P. Whitmore, Fred M. Blanchard, Robert D. Diggs, and Walter L. McCammon. Also Right Worshipful Albert L. Harwood served as Deputy Grand Master of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
There are certain other officials who have served the Lodge for periods of more than ten vears. Three Treasurers: John B. Turner from 1873 to 1884, John W. Fisher from 1900 to 1915, and Frederick S. Fairchild from 1916 to the present; two Secretaries: Edward E. Morgan from 1883 until his death in 1916, and Robert D. Diggs from 1921 to the present. Continuity in these two positions means much to the Master in his work and contributes to the smooth running of the Lodge. Alexander Chisholm served the Lodge as Tyler for twenty-three years.<br />
<br />
Dalhousie has completed seventy-five years of harmonious, prosperous, and useful life, of which the Brethren may well be proud. Its achievements, High standing, and fine reputation are, indeed, a great inheritance. We should be deeply grateful for the honorable past, but recognize that the story of its life does not end here. We have a responsibility to carry on. In the light of what has been done, and with reliance upon the Lodge as it is today, may we go forward with confidence and determination to preserve and continue the high character of its achievements and increase the luster of its reputation.<br />
<br />
==== CENTENARY HISTORY, MAY 1960 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1960-91:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful William N. Woodland.''<br />
<br />
A Lodge, we are told, is a certain number of Masons, and Dalhousie Lodge, F. & A. M., has been noted for both the number and the Masonic distinction of its members throughout its hundred-year history. For the greater part of that period, Dalhousie Lodge has ranked as one of the largest Blue Lodges under the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts; its work has been hailed as a standard to be emulated by others; and its members have been most active in promoting Freemasonry in all its branches.<br />
Throughout the century, too, Masonry in Newton has centered around Dalhousie Lodge. Its members planned, built and financed the series of lodge rooms which have served as homes for all the Masonic bodies meeting in Newton. It is the oldest Lodge in Newton, and while it now enjoys happy fraternal relations with three other thriving Lodges in the Temple, it was the only Lodge active in Newton for almost half the century. Dalhousie Lodge shares and rejoices in the prosperity of the other Newton Lodges, for it can claim a parent's pride in all of them. Members of Dalhousie Lodge founded and provided most of the original officers of Fraternity Lodge in 1875. They rendered similar service at the founding of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Norumbega Norumbega Lodge in 1920, and Dalhousie had a part in the creation of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GardenCity Garden City] Lodge in 1955.<br />
<br />
In the hundred years since its own founding, Dalhousie Lodge has made Master Masons of more than 2,500 men. While its membership has included the business and civic leaders of Newton, members of Dalhousie Lodge have come from all walks of life, and today, as in the past, its membership represents a cross-section of the community. Here the operative mason joins with the banker, the broker, the builder, the metal-worker, the teacher, the clerk, the merchant, the civil servant, on the level of Equality, all working for the common good.<br />
<br />
In 1860, the year of the founding of Dalhousie Lodge, there were already a considerable number of Masons resident in Newton, then a town of 8,000 inhabitants, settled in seven villages. Among them was R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge William D. Coolidge], then Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. The existing Masonic Lodges accessible by railroad or horse-drawn stage included eight in the center of Boston, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=BethesdaB Bethesda] in Brighton, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Monitor Monitor] in Waltham, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Pequossette Pequossette] in Watertown, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Meridian Meridian] in Natick, and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicable] in Cambridge.<br />
<br />
Meridian Lodge, incidentally, had been chartered in Watertown in 1797 and had been located in Newton Lower Falls between 1843 and 1852 but had not flourished there. Pequossette Lodge had been organized in Watertown in 1857.<br />
<br />
Over a period of months extending into the Spring of 1860, the Masons living in Newton, under the leadership of Bro. Coolidge, laid plans for the establishing of a Lodge here. With Bro. Adin B. Underwood as secretary, the group issued a call to "the Masonic Brethren of Newton" to assemble at Tremont Hall in Newtonville on Monday, June 25, 1860, "for an appropriate recognition" of St. John's Day.<br />
<br />
At this meeting, the Brethren resolved to petition the Grand Master for a dispensation to establish a Lodge. The record does not give the names or the number of Brethren present at this meeting, but the petition for dispensation was signed by the following thirty-eight Brethren:<br />
<div style="column-count:2;-moz-column-count:2;-webkit-column-count:2"><br />

<br />
The petition asked that the Lodge be designated "Dalhousie Lodge of Newton". The name was suggested by Bro. Adin B. Underwood, secretary of the organizing group. By this name, the Newton Masons paid tribute to the memory of one or the other of three distinguished Masons, Earls of Dalhousie who served as Grand Masters of Masons of Scotland. Just as there has been confusion over the pronunciation of the name, there is no definite proof which of the men is honored by the name. (The pronunciation favored by the Lodge, incidentally, uses the "oo" sound of "moose" for the second syllable, rather than the "ou" of "house".)<br />
<br />
George Ramsay, the Eighth Earl of Dalhousie, was Grand Master of Scotland from 1767 to 1769. It was he who granted letters of deputation to General [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJsWarren Joseph Warren] in 1769, making him Grand Master of Masons in Boston, New England, and within one hundred miles of the same. Boston already had a Grand Lodge, constituted in 1733 by Henry Price under warrant from Viscount Montacute, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of England. In 1792 the two Grand Lodges united. Since both Grand Lodges had instituted regular Lodges and had assigned numbers to them with numerous duplications in numbers, the numbers were abandoned to avoid argument. That is why Massachusetts Lodges, contrary to the usual custom, bear no numbers.<br />
<br />
According to the ''Freemason's Monthly Magazine'' of October 1860, it was the eighth Earl of Dalhousie for whom Dalhousie Lodge was named. According to Bro. Lewis E. Binney, who wrote the first history of the Lodge at its fiftieth anniversary in 1910, it is more probable that the name was intended to honor<br />
the eleventh Earl of Dalhousie, Fox Maule Ramsay, better known in English history as Lord Panmure.<br />
<br />
The eleventh Earl was Grand Master of Scotland and Deputy Grand Master of England at the time Dalhousie Lodge was established, and this fact would seem to make him a strong candidate for the honor of serving as namesake of the Lodge. There have always been strong ties between the Grand Lodge of England and Massachusetts, and Bro. Coolidge was to become Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts soon.<br />
<br />
Another bit of evidence that the Newton Masons sought to honor the more recent Dalhousie is the fact that the founders of Dalhousie Lodge chose to use the designation, "F. & A. M." for the Lodge, rather than the more common "A. F.& A. M." The missing "A" stands for "Ancient", and the Grand Lodge of Scotland had shown sympathy with the "Ancients" during the controversy between that group and the older so-called "Moderns" in England in the Eighteenth Century. Dalhousie's founders may well have had that episode in mind, for they were serious students of the Craft and its history.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately for the Binney theory and the eleventh Earl, dates impose a stumbling block. On June 25, 1860, the Grand Master of Scotland and Deputy Grand Master of England was still Baron Panmure. He did not become eleventh Earl of Dalhousie until six months later, following the death, on December 19, 1860, of the tenth Earl of Dalhousie, the great empire-building Governor-General of India.<br />
<br />
If a later historian may venture a guess, it may be possible that the Brethren who gathered in Newtonville in June 1860 had in mind the greatest of the Dalhousie line, James Andrew Brown Ramsay, the tenth Earl and Viceroy of India himself. He was the man known to Americans as "Dalhousie" in 1860, and he had served as Grand Master of Scotland, 1836 to 1838.<br />
<br />
It is the eleventh Earl's portrait, however, which hung over the Master's chair in the lodge-room for many years and which still hangs in the Temple.<br />
<br />
Whichever may be the Dalhousie to whom our Lodge owes its name, Dalhousie Lodge has used the Dalhousie coat of arms of 1769, together with the motto ''Ora et Labora'', as its seal ever since the constitution of the Lodge in 1861. The motto enjoins us to "work and pray"!<br />
<br />
[http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge William D. Coolidge], who headed the signers of the petition for dispensation to form Dalhousie Lodge, was chosen as its first Worshipful Master, under dispensation. Other officers elected that June night in 1860 were:<br />
* Albert A. Kendall, Senior Warden<br />
* Silas H. Munson, Junior Warden<br />
* Isaac Cary, Treasurer<br />
* Horatio F. Allen, Secretary<br />
The following officers were appointed:<br />
* Adin B. Underwood, Senior Deacon<br />
* Chester H. Graves, Junior Deacon<br />
* George E. Bridges, Senior Steward<br />
* Oliver S. Sanford, Junior Steward<br />
* William D. Thayer, Marshal<br />
At a later meeting, Bro. J. B. Lovett, as the youngest member of the Lodge, was appointed Tyler, and Rev. Bro. N. G. Allen was appointed Chaplain.<br />
<br />
At the second meeting of Dalhousie Lodge in September 1860, Worshipful Master Coolidge presented the Lodge the dispensation from the Grand Master. He also presented a full set of officers' jewels, the gift of the original officers of the Lodge, which are still in use at every communication of Dalhousie Lodge. The officers were installed by Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPJones Peter C. Jones], Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Columbian Columbian] Lodge. That same night, Dalhousie Lodge received six appljcations for the degrees. Among them were those of Bro. Dustin Lancey and Wor. Bro. Marcus T. Haywood, the first two candidates to be raised in the Lodge. From the order of the names in the records, Bro. Lancey is presumed to be the first.<br />
<br />
At the regular communication on December 26, 1860, Worshipful Master Coolidge informed the Lodge that he could no longer serve as Master, since he had been elected Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts. Wor. Bro. Peter C. Jones was elected to succeed him as Master. On May 22, 1861, the Lodge authorized the officers to apply for a charter, and it was promptly granted by Grand Lodge, bearing the name of Most Worshipful Bro. Coolidge as Grand Master. On June 24, 1861, Grand Master Coolidge constituted Dalhousie Lodge, dedicated the Masonic apartments in Tremont Hall, and installed the first officers of the Lodge under its Charter. They were:<br />
* Albert A. Kendall, M. D., Worshipful Master<br />
* George E. Bridges, Senior Warden<br />
* Oliver S. Sanford, Junior Warden<br />
* Chester H. Graves, Treasurer<br />
* Horatio F. Allen, Secretary<br />
* Rev. N. G. Allen, Chaplain<br />
* Philemon Stacy, Marshal<br />
* William D. Thayer, Senior Deacon<br />
* Asahel Wheeler, Junior Deacon<br />
* Luther E. Leland, Senior Steward<br />
* Francis D. Hall, Junior Steward<br />
* George Mills, Sentinel<br />
* J. B. Lovett, Tyler<br />
Dr. Kendall enrolled as a surgeon in the Union Army during his first term as Master, but was re-elected for a second year in 1862 and installed by proxy. The day before his installation, however, he was killed at Antietam, Sharpsburg, Maryland, on September 17, 1862. The rude wooden marker from his battlefield grave occupies a prominent place in the Temple, at the beginning of the gallery of photographs of Past Masters of Dalhousie Lodge.<br />
<br />
Dalhousie Lodge has always held its meetings in Newtonville, in a succession of apartments, but always near to the site of the home of Most Wor. Bro. Coolidge at the corner of Walnut Street and Highland Avenue. The first few communications under dispensation were held in the Swedenborgian Chapel on the second floor of a building on Bowers Street, near the present Newtonville railroad station. Early in 1861 the Lodge leased the upper floor of the Methodist Church at the corner of Washington Street and Central Avenue. In 1874, the Lodge secured adequate quarters in the Central Block at the corner of Washington and Walnut Streets. Ex-Gov. William Claflin, who built the block, designed the upper floors for Masonic uses.<br />
Within twenty years, the Masonic fraternity had outgrown these quarters, and in 1895 the Newton Masonic Hall Association was formed to erect a building to be the fraternity's own. The members of Dalhousie Lodge, together with the York Rite bodies of Newton, planned the present Masonic Temple, laid the corner-stone in 1896 and moved into the hall in 1897. While it took nearly twenty years for the Masons of Newton to acquire their own home, it took even longer for them to pay for it. During the 1920's a series of fund-raising prospects, including "Masonic Fairs" and other entertainments, finally resulted in paying off the indebtedness on the building in 1927. Since then, new indebtedness has been incurred to finance maintenance and badly needed improvements which had been deferred during the depression years of the 1930's.<br />
<br />
Since it is not practical for Masonic Lodges to hold real estate in their own names, the Newton Masonic Hall Association was incorporated as a stock company to erect the Masonic Temple in Newtonville. Individual members of the Masonic bodies bought shares of stock in that corporation, but their payments were more in the nature of gifts than investments. Much of the money for the Temple was raised by mortgage bonds, which were finally paid off in 1927. To give the Masonic bodies more direct control over the building which belongs to them in fact, if not in law, the Newton Masonic Hall Association was replaced in 1922 by the Newton Masonic Associates, Inc.<br />
<br />
Dalhousie Lodge has held its regular communications on Wednesday evenings from the start, but in the early days the night for the regular monthly meeting was the Wednesday on or before the full of the moon. This was common practice for Masonic Lodges in those days before modern street lighting and when refreshments were of the type now referred to in Lodge only in the admonition to the Junior Warden at his installation. In modern times, the second Wednesday of each month has been the night of regular communications, and special communications have generally been held on other Wednesdays as the volume of work demanded.<br />
<br />
For the first two-thirds of its hundred years, Dalhousie Lodge held its annual meetings in June, but in recent years the regular communication in September has been the annual meeting. A few years ago, the annual election of officers was advanced to June, to give the incoming Worshipful Master the opportunity to plan ahead for the busy year starting in September. At the last revision of the By-Laws, at Grand Lodge urging, the annual meeting was shifted from the second to the third Wednesday in September to give more time for the annual audit after the fiscal year of the Lodge ends on August 31.<br />
<br />
The rapid growth of Dalhousie Lodge in its early years and its continued growth since it has shared Newton jurisdiction with other Lodges attest to the popularity and esteem in which Dalhousie Lodge has been held. The Lodge reached its peak membership of 1,120 in 1927. Membership decreased during the depression years, but it has held steady at a little over 800 for the past decade.<br />
<br />
Despite the large number of candidates admitted to Dalhousie Lodge and its large membership, the Lodge has never relaxed its high standards. Investigation and balloting upon applicants has never been perfunctory. Indeed, at the turn of the century, barely half the petitioners for the degrees were accepted. In later years, careful screening by Worshipful Masters and pre-application committees has made rejection a rare event.<br />
<br />
Customs of the Lodge have developed and changed over the century. Dalhousie Lodge has always been noted for the high quality of its work, and some features of its work have been unique, not always, it must be admitted, with the approval of the Grand Lecturer. One feature of Dalhousie's work, the "Fellowcraft Team", once frowned upon by Grand Lodge, has been admired and emulated by many other Lodges. The Fellowcraft Team, indeed, may illustrate why the authorities charged with maintaining uniformity are vexed by idiosyncrasies of particular Lodges. While the import of the Fellowcraft Team is clear to any Master Mason on the sidelines, no two Past Masters of the Lodge, probably, will agree exactly on how each member should perform his evolutions. Still, the Team adds interest to the work, and it has performed a most valuable function in providing a training ground for future line officers of the Lodge.<br />
In its early years, along with other Lodges, Dalhousie Lodge took it upon itself to police the conduct of its members. Masonic trials were held, at which erring Brothers were reminded of their obligations, accused and defended, and finally cleared or penalized. This function was taken over by the Commissioners of Trials of the Grand Lodge, and these Brethren were called upon to pass judgment upon an early officer of Dalhousie Lodge.<br />
<br />
He was accused of conduct unbecoming a Mason, with two specifications, embezzling Lodge funds and public drunkenness. On the first charge, the Commissioners found the Brother not guilty. While it was evident that money was missing, the trial board also noted that a series of Worshipful Masters had failed to check into the officer's obvious inability to keep track of funds entrusted to him. On the second count the verdict was guilty, and suspension was the penalty.<br />
<br />
As it was, Dalhousie Lodge survived the financial loss incurred in its early years. Its sister Lodge, Fraternity, was less fortunate, for peculations by an early officer of that Lodge, forced its suspension for twenty-five years, from 1885 to 1911, leaving Dalhousie Lodge as the only Blue Lodge in Newton between those years.<br />
Some time later, Dalhousie Lodge officers were embarrassed by another Masonic trial. On this occasion, they made formal inquiry into the peccadilloes of a Mason then resident in Newton, only to have the Grand Lodge nullify their action on grounds of lack of jurisdiction. After this, the Lodge appears to have curbed its zeal to preserve public morals, leaving that task to the secular arm.<br />
<br />
Over the years, Dalhousie Lodge has been a busy Lodge, initiating, passing and raising an average of more than twenty candidates each year. In the postwar Masonic boom, it made 85 new Masons in 1921. During the depression years, the number of candidates dropped to as few as two or three a year, but during World War II the volume rose again well up to the 40's for several years. Since then, the number of candidates has leveled off at between 20 and 25 each year, or just about enough to offset the loss through mortality.<br />
Like many other Lodges 40 years ago, Dalhousie Lodge made the financial mistake of selling life memberships for an inadequate lump sum payment. Its By-Laws also granted automatic life membership after 25 years. With the big classes of World War I nearing automatic life membership, the Lodge faced a financial crisis in 1940. Its rent, the largest single item of expense, was based on total membership, whether paying dues or not, and in a few years the Lodge would have had more than half its members exempt from dues.<br />
<br />
After hard work by a series of committees, the By-Laws were finally placed on the present sound basis of granting automatic life membership only to members who have reached age 65 and have paid dues to the Lodge for 30 years. Since then, sharp increases in rent imposed by the Newton Masonic Associates, Inc., have forced two increases in dues, but the Lodge is starting its second century with its expense in balance with its income.<br />
<br />
Entirely separate and apart from the general funds of the Lodge, the members of Dalhousie Lodge have built up through contribution a substantial Charity Fund, administered by three trustees. While this fund is invested for maximum security, its income has proved adequate to meet all demands upon it for Masonic Charity for many years. Here, too, change may be noted. While the records of a quarter century ago and earlier list many entries for small amounts disbursed for numerous Brothers and their widows, the Charity Fund disbursements of recent years have been comparatively few but for much larger amounts. Pensions, relief and security laws have relieved the Lodge of requests for routine charity; today's requests are more in the nature of relief of exceptional financial disasters to individuals or emergency "tiding over" until relief can be provided through other channels.<br />
<br />
During its hundred years, Dalhousie Lodge has had eighty-three Worshipful Masters, counting Bros. Coolidge and Jones, who served under dispensation, and the present occupant of the Oriental Chair. Twenty-six of those Masters are still living, and every one of them has maintained continued interest in the Lodge. Collectively, these eighty-three Masters represent a tremendous number of man-hours devoted to Freemasonry and service of their fellow men. In Dalhousie Lodge it has been customary for even-Master to serve in all the line stations on his way to the East, and this has meant from seven to fourteen years' service in stations of steadily increasing responsibility and demands upon their time. For the past 40 years, also, it has been customary for the junior Past Master to devote an additional year as Marshal of the Lodge.<br />
Many men have given untiringly of themselves to Dalhousie Lodge, and the roster of Past Masters by no means completes the list of those who have built the Lodge. Among the Past Masters, however, are some who have served Freemasonry outside Dalhousie Lodge as well as in the Lodge. They include those who have served as District Deputy Grand Master: Right Worshipful Brothers Albert L. Harwood, George P. Whitmore, Fred M. Blanchard, Robert D. Diggs, Walter L. McCammon and J. Edwin Mitchell.<br />
<br />
As already noted, the moving spirit in founding Dalhousie Lodge, William D. Coolidge, became Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts in 1860. Ninety years later, a former Chaplain of Dalhousie Lodge, Rev. Bro. Thomas S. Roy, also became Grand Master.<br />
<br />
Past Masters of Dalhousie Lodge have served other Lodges in Newton, too. Wor. Bro. Horatio B. Hackett, Master in 1870-71, was the first Master of Fraternity Lodge in 1875 and served again as Master on the restoration of that Lodge in 1911. R.W. Bro. Fred M. Blanchard, Master in 1913, and R.W. Bro. Walter L. McCammon, Master in 1918, served as the first Masters of Norumbega Lodge after its founding in 1920. Wor. Bro. Joseph S. Balcom, Master in 1953, was the first Junior Warden of Garden City Lodge upon its founding in 1955 and was its third Worshipful Master.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Masters come and go, but the smooth running of a Lodge depends in a large measure on the ability, zeal and friendly devotion of men serving in the permanent offices. Three Treasurers have served the Lodge for periods of more than ten years: Bro. John B. Turner from 1873 to 1884; Wor. Bro. John W. Fisher from 1900 to 1915; and Wor. Bro. Frederick S. Fairchild from 1916 to 1940. Secretaries have also served for more than a decade each: Bro. Horatio F. Allen, from 1860 to 1874; Bro. Edward E. Morgan, from 1883 to 1916; R.W. Bro. Robert D. Diggs, from 1921 to 1945; and Wor. Bro. John H. Berquist, Assistant Secretary from 1932 to 1945 and Secretary from 1945 to 1951.<br />
<br />
Bro. Alexander Chisholm served the Lodge as Tyler for 23 years, and Bro. William A. Van Buskirk was Electrician for 24 years. Bro. Harry E. Rodgers has served as Organist for 25 years.<br />
<br />
The Trustees of the Charity Fund have both served the Lodge long and well. They are Wor. Bro. Carl C. Davis, senior living Past Master, who was Master of the Lodge in 1927, and Wor. Bro. William F. Keesler, Master in 1934.<br />
<br />
In this brief review it has been possible to note only the highlights of the first hundred years of Dalhousie Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons. As we contemplate its future, we may do well to repeat the words of its second historian, Wor. Bro. Wallace C. Boyden, changing only his "seventy-five years", written in 1935, to "one hundred years" in 1960.<br />
<br />
These words are:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Dalhousie has completed one hundred years of harmonious, prosperous and useful life, of which the Brethren may well be proud. Its achievements, high standing, and fine reputation are, indeed, a great inheritance. We should be deeply grateful for the honorable past, but recognize that the story of its life does not end here. We have a responsibility to carry on. In the light of what has been done, and with reliance upon the Lodge as it is today, may we go forward with confidence and determination to preserve and continue the high character of its achievements and increase the luster of its reputation."<br />

==== DISPENSATION, AUGUST 1860 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XIX, No. 12, September 1860, Page 361:''<br />
<br />
''DALHOUSIE LODGE — LORD ABERDOUR.''<br />
<br />
On the third of August last, the Grand Master of Massachusetts granted a Dispensation to R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge William D. Coolidge], Esq., and thirty-five other Brethren, to form a Lodge at Newtonville, in the town of Newton, under the name of "Dalhousie Lodge." The Brethren residing in this town have long needed a Lodge, and we are happy to learn that that now established there promises to flourish and become one of the most influential in the Commonwealth. Indeed, this could hardly be otherwise, for its government is entrusted to Bio. Coolidge, whose skill in Masonry and devotion to its objects and principles, afford the strongest guarantee that all things will be conducted wisely, and creditably to the Craft; and he will be supported by Brethren of experience and fidelity who are associated with him.<br />
<br />
In the selection of a name, the Brethren have sought to honor the memory of the Grand Master of Scotland, whose term of office continued from November 30th, 1767, to November 30th, 1769, and who, on the 30th of May, 1769, granted letters of deputation to General [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJsWarren Joseph Warren], by which he became "Grand Master of Masons in Boston, New England, and within one hundred miles of the same."<br />
<br />
George, the eighth Earl of Dalhousie — the Grand Master above referred to — was a descendant of the illustrious family of Ramsays — which came from Germany and settled in Scotland as early as the reign of King David I. Sir William Ramsay, in 1295, was the first designed "by the title of Dalhousie. George, the 8th Earl, succeeded his brother Charles, the 7th Earl, on the 29th January, 1764, and died in 1787.<br />
<br />

<br />
Two important facts in the early history of Masonry in Massachusetts are now befittingly commemorated through the names of Lodges which illustrate them, namely, — by [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Montacute Montacute] Lodge and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=HenryPrice Henry Price] Lodge, is marked the event of the establishment of the ''Saint John's Grand Lodge'', by commission from Viscount Montacute, Grand Master of England, to [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrice Henry Price], in 1733; and by Dalhousie Lodge and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=JosephWarren Joseph Warren] Lodge is celebrated the act by which the Grand Master of Scotland, in 1769, deputized Joseph Warren to form a Grand Lodge "in Boston, New England, and within one hundred miles of the same," which subsequently became known as the "Massachusetts Grand Lodge."<br />
<br />
One other name we should like to honor by giving it to a Lodge in this jurisdiction—it is that of Sholto Charles Douglas, Lord Aberdour, who, in 1756, as Grand Master of Scotland, granted the Charter of Saint Andrew's Lodge, of this city, under which that body has continued to work to the present time. In 1809, it acknowledged its allegiance to the present Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. Saint Andrew's is the only subordinate Lodge now existing in this commonwealth which originally worked under powers derived from abroad, so that, should we adopt the name of "Aberdour" for a Lodge, the early official connections between European Masonry and that in this Commonwealth, would be, in such mariner, completely celebrated.<br />
<br />
Sholto Charles, Lord Aberdour, was Grand Master of Scotland from November 30th, 1755, to November 30th, 1757. He succeeded his father James, the 15th Earl of Morton, October 12th, 1768. He was born in 1732, and died in 1774.<br />
<br />

* Motto; Lock sicker.<br />
<br />
We have given a description of the Arms of Dalhousie and Aberdour in order that a Lodge taking the name of either of these distinguished persons could avail itself readily of his insignia for decorative purposes. In this respect, the example of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Montacute Montacute] Lodge, Worcester, is worthy of imitation, — the Arms of Viscount Montacute having been appropriately introduced into the seal of the Lodge, serving the double purpose of rendering to his name a fitting tribute and perpetuating interesting historical associations.

==== CONSTITUTION AND HALL DEDICATION, JUNE 1861 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XX, No. 9, July 1861, Page 284:''<br />
<br />
This is the name of a new and energetic Lodge which, for the past year, has been working under Dispensation at Newtonville, and was duly constituted on the 24th June last. The ceremonies of Dedicating the hall and Consecrating the Lodge were performed by the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMCoolidge Grand Master] and his Officers, in the afternoon, in presence of the members of the new Lodge and visiting Brethren, and in the evening the officers were installed in presence of the ladies and other friends. At the conclusion of which, R. W. Brother Dr. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLewis Lewis] delivered one of his neat and taking addresses; and of course everybody was pleased with this part of the performance, especially the ladies, to whom the speaker, as usual, made his best bow, and on this occasion, in his best manner.<br />
<br />
In the interim between the consecration of the Lodge and the installation of its officers the Brethren partook of a collation, served up in good taste and with generous liberality.<br />
<br />
The Hall is one of the finest in the State, and does high honor to the taste, liberality and enterprise of the Brethren of the new Lodge.<br />
<br />

<br />

<br />
Dalhousie Lodge F. and A. M. celebrated the 24th of June by having a public installation of its officers on the evening of that day. The convenient apartments occupied by the Fraternity in Newton are well adapted to accommodate a large audience, and they were amply filled on this evening, by the brethren, who were agreeably outnumbered by the ladies. The services were accompanied by good music, the audience was attentive and apparently interested, brief speeches were made by the installing officer, Past Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge W. D. Coolidge] and others, the tables in the banquet hall were well spread, and the occasion was altogether a pleasant one. The Installation ceremonies, which were strictly in conformity to Grand Lodge Service, were performed by W. Brother Alfred F, Chapman, W. Brother A. L. Richardson, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountLebanon Mt. Lebanon] Lodge, Boston, acting as Marshal. <br />
<br />

This lodge has rather adhered to the custom of having its officers installed on St. John's Day in June, but so great has been the demand upon the time of officers and members by reason of the many celebrations of the day this year, that it was concluded to do the next best thing, and have the installation on the 25th. Accordingly as arranged previously, the M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWelch Grand Master] visited the Lodge on the evening of the latter day, and installed the officers into their respective places. The official delegation consisted of M. W. Charles A. Welch, Grand Master; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHowland Abraham H. Howland, Jr.], Dep. G. Master; Wor. Henry N. Fisher; and Wor. Alfred F. Chapman. Bros. Howland and Fisher acted as Senior and Junior Grand Wardens, and Bro. Chapman as Grand Marshal. The officers installed were W. M. Jas. B. Fuller; S. W. W. A. Wetherbee; J. W. E. W. Gay; Treas. John B. Turner; Sec. E. E. Morgan; Marshal, Warren G. Fellows; Senior Deacon, H. H. Mather; Junior Deacon, J. C. Kennedy; Senior Steward, C. S.

'''Dalhousie Lodge Celebrates 125th Year '''<br><br />
''By William N. Woodland''<br />
<br />
A century-old mystery was solved at the 125th anniversary of Dalhousie Lodge, A. F. & A. M., of Newton this spring. For the first time, living members have just learned which of three great Masons, all Earls of Dalhousie and Grand Masters of Scotland, is commemorated in the name the Lodge has borne since 1860.<br />
<br />
Wor. and Rev. Dr. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJHiggins John R. S. Higgins], presiding Master, credits Wor. James C. Benoit, the Lodge's historian, with nailing down the honor for the first of the three Lords Dalhousie whose names have been connected with the Lodge. He was George Ramsay, the eighth Earl of Dalhousie, Grand Master of Scotland from 1767 to 1769. It was he who granted letters of deputation to General [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJsWarren Joseph Warren] in 1769, making him Grand Master of Masons "in Boston, New England, and within 100 miles of the same."<br />
<br />
None of the official records of the Lodge stated specifically that its name was intended to honor the eighth Earl. Some doubts arose later as another Earl of Dalhousie achieved world fame as the empire-building Governor General of India. He was James Andrew Broun Ramsay, tenth Earl, who had served as Grand Master of Scotland 1836-1838 and who died in 1860.<br />
<br />
Confusion was compounded when the young Lodge wrote to Scotland in its early years and asked for a portrait of the "Earl of Dalhousie" to hang in the Lodge room. It received a portrait all right, but it was a photograph of the eleventh Earl, Fox Maule Ramsay. He was Grand Master of Scotland when the Lodge was founded, but he didn't become Earl of Dalhousie until later. His picture hung in the Newton Masonic Temple for over 100 years and generations of Dalhousie members assumed that he was their original patron. In his research for the 125th anniversary, Historian Benoit ran across a bundle of 1860 papers which made specific references to the eighth Earl as the man whose name the Lodge had taken, the man who helped to establish Masonry in Massachusetts.<br />
At the anniversary celebration, Wor. Bro. Higgins announced the gift of a granite lectern to the City of Newton, to be placed and used outside the Veterans' Memorial at City Hall. Mayor Bro. Theodore D. Mann accepted the gift for the City.<br />
<br />
M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRichardson David B. Richardson], Grand Master, presided at the 125th anniversary meeting of the Lodge. M. W. and Rev. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMelanson Arthur H. Melanson], Past Grand Master, preached the sermon at the church service. R. W. W. Bradford Chase, Jr., was general chairman of the anniversary committee, and M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBerquist J. Philip Berquist] was chairman of the committee receiving the Grand Master.<br />

In his and their defense, another Grand Chaplain commented, "we are in sales, not management!"

''From Proceedings, Page 1946-139:''<br />
<br />
''By Brother Herbert F. Payne.''<br />
<br />
Prior to the time our Lodge was organized, the Grand Lodge had advocated and urged the forming of new Lodges to relieve the burden on overtaxed officers who were attempting to confer the degrees on an extraordinary number of candidates who were admitted during and following World War I.<br />
<br />
In 1921, there were four Chartered Lodges in Springfield, with a total membership of 3,763. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RoswellLee Roswell Lee] Lodge initiated 94 in 1920 and 124 in 1921, making their membership 1,362, the largest Lodge in Massachusetts. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Hampden Hampden] Lodge raised 134 in the year 1920 and 115 in 1921, ending the year with a membership of 1,139. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Springfield Springfield] Lodge had candidates of 61 and 89 in the two years and a membership of 590, while [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Esoteric Esoteric] Lodge, instituted in 1909, had a membership of 580, with candidates numbering,-97 and 62 in the two years. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=SamuelOsgood Samuel Osgood] Lodge was instituted on April 12, 1921, and was working under dispensation, making the fifth Lodge.<br />
<br />
It was felt there was room for another Lodge, and Worshipful Dwight H. Keyes received plenty of encouragement on his proposal to form a Lodge in honor of Right Worshipful Samuel D. Sherwood - an outstanding Mason in Springfield.<br />
<br />
Samuel D. Sherwood was born in Redding Ridge, Connecticut, on November 26, 1853, and died in Springfield, Massachusetts, on May 5, 1920. When sixteen years of age, he began teaching school and taught for six years, at the same time preparing for college. He graduated with honors from Wesleyan University in the year 1881. After teaching in Connecticut for five years, he came to Springfield and was principal of the Worthington Street School from September, 1886, to June, 1890, when he resigned and entered the insurance business. He served as Alderman in 1891-1892 and was a representative citizen who upheld high ideals of civic responsibility. His Masonic career was as follows: Raised in [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RoswellLee Roswell Lee] Lodge June 6, 1890; served in various stations and was installed Worshipful Master in 1897. In 1899 and 1900, he served as District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAChicopee16_1883-1910 Sixteenth Masonic District]. He was a member of the York Rite Bodies and served as Eminent Commander of Springfield Commandery in 1916-1917. He served several years as head of each of the Scottish Rite Bodies; was a member of Massachusetts Consistory and a charter member of Connecticut Valley Consistory. On September 19, 1911, he was made an honorary member of the Supreme Council, 33rd Degree. His many fine qualities made him sincerely beloved, and it seemed fitting that a Masonic Lodge should be a means of perpetuating his name.<br />
<br />
On March 24, 1921, a formal meeting was called by Worshipful Dwight H. Keyes, and a petition for a dispensation was drawn, with seventy signatures secured. The first officers chosen and approved by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Arthur D. Prince] were Wor. Dwight H. Keyes, as Worshipful Master, Wor. Marcus H. Smith, as Senior Warden, and Brother Hugh V. Keiser, as Junior Warden.<br />
<br />
Our dispensation was received from the hands of Right Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHDillenback Hiram I. Dillenback], District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield18_1911-1926 Eighteenth Masonic District] on June 3, 1921. It was a gala occasion, with an attendance of 231, including many distinguished Masons and sixty of the petitioners. The following officers were seated:<br />
* Wor. Dwight H. Keyes, Worshipful Master<br />
* Wor. Marcus H. Smith, Senior Warden<br />
* Bro. Hugh V. Keiser, Junior Warden<br />
* Wor. George A. Deane, Treasurer<br />
* Bro. Herbert F. Payne, Secretary<br />
* Frank N. Seerley, Chaplain<br />
* Wallace E. Dibble, Marshal<br />
* Frederick E. Sparrow, Senior Deacon<br />
* John E. Jones, Junior Deacon<br />
* Malcolm C. Sherwood, Senior Steward <br />
* Glenn W. Hamilton, Junior Steward <br />
* George R. V. Cary, Inside Sentinel<br />
* William R. Hamilton, Tyler<br />
<br />
Our first Worshipful Master, Dwight Harley Keyes, has a Masonic record of which he may justly be proud. Raised in Roswell Lee Lodge in the year 1909, he received an appointment of Inside Sentinel that same year and each year advanced, when in 1917 he was installed Worshipful Master. He joined all York and Scottish Rite Bodies in Springfield, serving in various stations and, with the exception of the Royal Arch Chapter, has been elected to the highest station in each order. He was deeply interested in the Springfield Chapter of DeMolay, serving as Chairman of the Advisory Board. He is a member of Melha Temple Shrine and the Representative of the Grand Lodge of Illinois in the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. He served as Worshipful Master of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge until December, 1921, when he was relieved by the Grand Master in order that he might be appointed District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield33_1911-1926 Thirty-third Masonic District]. In the year 1935, he was crowned an honorary member of the Supreme Council, 33rd degree. He has been a pillar of strength in Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge, ever ready to assist whenever necessary for the welfare of the Brethren and the Lodge. He has fully justified the title of Illustrious Brother that was conferred with the last degree of Masonry.<br />
<br />
On the completion of the institution ceremony, the first communication of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge was held and seventeen applications were received.<br />
<br />

<br />

Forty-three Charter Members were from Roswell Lee Lodge, six from Hampden Lodge, four from Springfield Lodge, three from Esoteric Lodge and twenty-nine from nineteen Lodges outside the city.<br />
<br />
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Grand Lodge Officers had constituted Samuel Osgood Lodge and the following day journeyed to East Longmeadow to constitute Charles C. Spellman Lodge and dedicate their Masonic Temple. It was a triple occasion and a very unusual event.<br />
<br />
===== GIFTS =====<br />
<br />
Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge was most fortunate in the receipt of many gifts. The most cherished of all was the beautiful Bible you see on our Altar. It was presented by Brother Malcolm C. Sherwood on behalf of his mother, Mrs. Samuel D. Sherwood. This Bible was made in England especially for this Lodge, and the first pages contain an engraved photo of Right Worshipful Brother Sherwood, his history, and the names of the first officers and Charter Members.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Lewis S. Nash, a Charter Member, gave the sterling silver Square and Compasses to complete the Great Lights.<br />
From Roswell Lee Lodge, Worshipful Harry G. Robertson presented a set of Officers' Collars and Jewels, and Worshipful Joseph Taylor presented a set of Working Tools, consisting of a gavel, three batons, twenty-four inch gauge and Fellow Craft Tools. Worshipful Brother Taylor made the presentation on behalf of a group of Masons called the Novelty Club.<br />
<br />
Cash contributions from the Charter Members purchased staffs for the Junior Officers.<br />
<br />
Our American flag, always displayed during our meetings, was received from the Anchor Club members, at their visitation in November, 1921.<br />
<br />
===== SPECIAL EVENTS =====<br />
<br />
The Master Mason Degree was conferred for the first time on September 26, 1921, with 221 in attendance. The candidates were Fellow Craft Brothers Leonard Ackerman, Albert A. Naumann, Charles F. Jahnig and Robert L. Brown. A special group from the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company, where the last two candidates were employed, were present to honor them and assist in conferring the degree. This was the first ''Westinghouse Night," of which we have had one or more each year of the twenty-five. A beautiful inlaid gavel made by one of the members is always presented to the Worshipful Master on the first yearly visit of this group. Their degree teams are made up of Past Masters and other officers of various Lodges, and the work of these groups cannot be surpassed.<br />
<br />
Our second special occasion was the visit of members of the Anchor Club, a group of Masons employed by the Boston & Maine Railroad. Their degree team, with Right Worshipful Marshall E. Locke, President of the Club, serving as Worshipful Master, conferred the Master Mason Degree upon Fellow Craft Brother Lester Don Allen Ball, one of their co-workers. The attendance was 310, with 100 of the Anchor Club members present.<br />
<br />
Annual Members Night, which consists of a dinner and entertainment, was established on February 22, 1922. At our first,<br />
Rev. Brother J. Burford Parry, Pastor of Wesley Church, delivered an excellent address on "George Washington, the Mason." Another year we secured Rev. Garfield Morgan of Lynn, Massachusetts, who was an authority on the life of Abraham Lincoln. He delivered a very fine address, and for his fee, would accept only a book on the life of Lincoln.<br />
<br />
Many of our members have entertained at these annual parties and we found we had some very good talent. Some of you will recall Worshipful Malcolm Sherwood and Charles Reynolds in a two man minstrel skit; Don and Harry Hitt in songs; Wally Dibble as Old Man Mystery; and the musical Hill Family Trio, just to mention a few.<br />
<br />
Professional talent has been secured in recent years, and the entertainment has been of the finest quality. Brother Frank Workheiser was the caterer up to the time of his death in 1933 and his chicken pie or steak and onion dinners were famous.<br />
<br />
Past Masters' and Charter Members' Night has been an annual affair. Our first was on May 2, 1923, and although there were only two Past Masters of our Lodge, the stations were filled by Charter Members who were Past Masters of other Lodges.<br />
<br />
Visitations have been exchanged with many Lodges both in and outside our jurisdiction. The outside Lodges were from Troy, New York; Hinsdale, New Hampshire; Brattleboro, Vermont; Westerly, Rhode Island; and from West Haven, New Haven, East Hartford, New Britain, Branford, Windsor Locks and Thompsonville, in Connecticut.<br />
<br />
One pleasant evening took place on July 27, 1925, when three hundred Masons and their wives attended a performance of the Poli Stock Company at Court Square Theatre. Through courtesy to a Connecticut Lodge, our officers had conferred the Master Mason Degree upon two of the theatre personnel. The company also included one of our members, Brother Harry Fischer, and three more members of the Fraternity. During the evening, bouquets were presented to the women members of the company and leather wallets to the men. Brother Holman, Director of the group, responded for all, his remarks being in verse, which had been handed down to him from his father and grandfather, who were Masons, and which had a special meaning for Masons and a surface meaning for others.<br />
<br />
On November 6, 1931, Most Worshipful Herbert W. Dean made us a fraternal visit and delivered an address on "Activities of the Grand Lodge."<br />
<br />
On May 26, 1939, Most Worshipful Thomas H. Desmond, Grand Master of Masons in Connecticut, accompanied the members of Orient Lodge of East Hartford, at the time of their fraternal visit to our Lodge.<br />
<br />
One member has received a fifty year medal. He is Rev. Brother Joseph Garden, who affiliated in 1932. Brother Garden was raised in [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Phoenician Phoenician] Lodge, Lawrence, Massachusetts, in the year 1885, and at our Lodge meeting on May 10, 1935, received the fifty year medal from the hands of Right Worshipful Frederick W. Cope, District Deputy Grand Master. Brother Carden is a retired Episcopal Minister, now eighty-seven years old, and resides in Andover, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
The highlight of the year 1935 and 1936 was the successful Minstrel and specialty show, named the "Fashion Plate Review." Over fifty members were in the cast, with many friends assisting in various capacities. Two performances were given each time in Consistory Hall. A souvenir program arranged under the supervision of Worshipful Harlan T. Pease, which included advertisements secured from local concerns, boosted the profits and netted our Charity Fund a tidy sum. - Shortly after the first show, a group journeyed to the Masonic Home in Charlton, where a picnic lunch was enjoyed and a group from the cast entertained the guests of the Home. This was one of several trips to Charlton. In 1940 we took part in the planting of Memorial trees and dedicated a tree in memory of Right Worshipful Brother Samuel D. Sherwood.<br />
<br />
Our annual installation of officers, with the exception of one, has been an occasion to which our members have been privileged to invite their families and friends. These ceremonies have been well attended and enjoyed. In the early years, the burden of ritual work, fell on the shoulders of Worshipful Brother Keyes, but as our Past Masters became available, they all participated and installed one or more new officers.<br />
<br />
===== MEMBERSHIP AND OTHER STATISTICS =====<br />
<br />
Up to and including April 5, 1946, we have had 880 communications and the average attendance has been 57.<br />
<br />
Six hundred and eighty-six petitions have been received, with six hundred and four elected. I have been privileged to be present at the regular communications to present all new petitions.<br />
<br />
Degrees conferred as follows: Entered Apprentice, 600; Fellow Craft, 590; Master Mason, 585; Affiliations numbered 32, with reinstatements 49. Members deceased were 62; dimitted, 68; and suspended, 156, making the membership 465 as of April 5, 1946.<br />

Thomas served as Junior Grand Steward in Grand Lodge for the year 1930. Worshipful Brother Sanderson served two years as Worshipful Master.<br />
<br />
Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge members are proud of this group of officers. They administered the Lodge affairs in a most efficient manner, and many of them could not be surpassed for their ritualistic ability.<br />
<br />
===== LECTURE CLASSES =====<br />
<br />
A lecture class for candidates was established the first year with Brother Leonard A. Salter as instructor and each group of candidates were examined in open Lodge before allowed to receive the next degree. In 1925 Brother Harry W. Hitt succeeded Brother Salter and in 1927, when Brother Hitt was elected Worshipful Master, the classes were conducted by Brother Charles E. Bartlett.<br />
<br />
In 1938, Worshipful Master Sylvester placed the Senior Deacon in charge. He was assisted by the other Junior officers and members who volunteered. This plan worked well for all concerned and has been continued, with no cost to the Lodge.<br />
<br />
===== WORLD WAR II VETERANS =====<br />
<br />
Fifty-nine of our members were enrolled in various services during World War II, and I am pleased to state there was only<br />
one reported wounded. Brother Edmund Dowd received shrapnel wounds in the arm, from which he recovered in a short<br />
"Many traveled to either the European or Pacific theatres and Brother William Tribelhorn had the distinction of service in both areas. Our Worshipful Master, James A. Steele, Jr was inducted into the Army soon after he was installed Junior Warden in October 1943, and served until June 1944, when he received an honorable discharge.<br />

<br />
And thus we have completed our first quarter century and stand on the threshold of another.<br />
<br />
I leave you with the thoughts of the future, as expressed by our Chairman, Right Worshipful Karl W. Hofman, as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Many times the success of the future must be prefaced by the things that have come out of the past. Foundations have to be placed deep to keep an Empire State Building from weaving in the winds. Life does not come to full fruition in a day, or a month, or even twenty-five years. We believe that we have enjoyed a past of the right sort and it has given us that foundation worth while, to instill in us an incentive to be worthy of the past in our actions of today. Life is moving ahead of us, and with us, and we must walk ahead. We must keep step; the man who lags behind will be covered with the dust of those who are forging ahead."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Traditions are hard to forget. We do not want to forget them so far as they have built things worth while, but there are things ahead, if we have the vision, that will surpass those things behind us, and we are only in swaddling clothes today. It is to the future of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge that we as Master Masons have set our forces, and we shall carry on till the end of time if need be, and go forward to bigger and better things.<br />
<br />
==== 50TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, JUNE 1971 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1971-272:''<br />
<br />
''By Brother Herbert F. Payne.''<br />
<br />
Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge came into being through the efforts and influence of Worshipful Dwight H. Keyes, Past Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RoswellLee Roswell Lee] Lodge. He received plenty of encouragement on his proposal to form a Lodge in memory of Right Worshipful Samuel D. Sherwood, an outstanding Mason in Springfield. Rt. Wor. Brother Sherwood was a Past Master of Roswell Lee Lodge, a Past District Deputy Grand Master, a member of all York Rite Bodies and served as Eminent Commander of Springfield Commandery. He served several years as head of each of the Scottish Rite Bodies, was a member of the Massachusetts Consistory and a Charter member of the Connecticut Valley Consistory. In 1911 he was made an Honorary member of the Supreme Council, 33rd Degree. He was sincerely beloved and it seemed fitting a Masonic Lodge should be a means of perpetuating his name.<br />
<br />
There were five Lodges meeting in our Temple, which at that time was at the corner of Main and State Streets. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RoswellLee Roswell Lee] Lodge had 1362 members, the largest number of any Lodge in Massachusetts; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Hampden Hampden] Lodge had 1139; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Springfield Springfield] Lodge, 590; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Esoteric Esoteric] Lodge, 580; and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=SamuelOsgood Samuel Osgood] had recently been Instituted working under a Dispensation.<br />
<br />
The Grand Lodge had advocated and urged the forming of new Lodges. Wor. Brother Keyes secured seventy signatures on a petition for a Dispensation which was granted by Most Worshipful Arthur D. Prince, Grand Master, and June 3, 1921. the Dispensation was received from the hands of Right Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHDillenback Hiram I. Dillenback], District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield18_1911-1926 Eighteenth Masonic District], and with his Suite, it was their official duty to install the first officers, who were as follows: Wor. Dwight H. Keyes, Worshipful Master; Wor. Marcus H. Smith, Senior Warden; Bro. Hugh V. Keiser, Junior Warden, Wor. George A. Deane, Treasurer; Bro. Herbert F. Payne, Secretary; Bro. Frank N. Seeley, Chaplain; Bro. Wallace E. Dibble, Marshal; Bro. Frederick E. Sparrow, Senior Deacon; Bro. John E. Jones, Junior Deacon; Bro. Malcolm C. Sherwood, Senior Steward; Bro. Glenn W. Hamilton, Junior Steward; Bro. George R. V. Cary, Inside Sentinel; and Bro. William R. Hamilton, Tyler.<br />
<br />
This evening was a gala occasion with an attendance of 231, including many distinguished Masons and sixty of the petitioners. On completion of the Institution Ceremony, the first Communication of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge was held and seventeen applications for the degrees were received.<br />
<br />
Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge was very fortunate to have Wor. Dwight H. Keyes willing to accept the responsibility of the office of our first Worshipful Master. His Masonic history we are proud to record. Receiving the degrees in Roswell Lee Lodge in 1909, he accepted an appointment as Inside Sentinel that same year, and advancing to the Worshipful Master's station in 1917, and installed by his Brother-in-law, Rt. Wor. Dan J. Kimpton. Finally joining all York and Scottish Rite Bodies, and taking part in the degrees, he was installed in the highest office of each group with the exception of the York Rite, Royal Arch Chapter. He served as Chairman of the Advisory Board of the Order of DeMolay. He was a member of Melha Shrine of Springfield and the Representative of the Grand Lodge of Illinois in the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts for several years. He received the Supreme Council, 33rd Degree in 1935 and in 1952 the York Rite, Knight of the Red Cross of Constantine, Mexico and the Philippines. He served as Worshipful Master of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge until December, 1921, when he was relieved by the Grand Master in order to accept an appointment of District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASpringfield33_1911-1926 Thirty-Third Masonic District], in the district of Roswell Lee Lodge. It is with a great deal of regret and sorrow he is not with us at this time. He was in failing health for many months prior to his death, which occurred on March 31, 1968, at the age of eighty.<br />
<br />
April 20, 1922, the Lodge was Constituted and officers installed by Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPrince Arthur D. Prince], assisted by sixteen other Grand Lodge Officers, and the Charter was received. ''(1922 Mass. 85-91)'' Personally, I would like to add a note here, that I was more than pleased and honored to be installed by the distinguished Mason, Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFHamilton Frederick W. Hamilton], Grand Secretary. For the Grand Officers this was a triple occasion, as Samuel Osgood Lodge was Constituted in the afternoon, our Lodge in the evening, and the next day, they journeyed to East Longmeadow to dedicate the Temple of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=CharlesCSpellman Charles C. Spellman] Lodge and to Constitute the Lodge and install the officers.<br />
<br />
Our officers installed were as follows: Wor. Marcus H. Smith, Worshipful Master; Bro. Hugh V. Keiser, Senior Warden; Bro. Malcolm C. Sherwood, Junior Warden; Wor. George A. Deane, Treasurer; Bro. Herbert F. Payne, Secretary; Bro. Frank N. Seerley, Chaplain; Bro. Glenn W. Hamilton, Marshal; Bro. John E. Jones, Senior Deacon; Bro. Wallace E. Dibble, Junior Deacon; Bro. George R. V. Cary, Senior Steward; Bro. Charles A. Reynolds, Junior Steward; Bro. Edward T. Harwood, Inside Sentinel; Bro. Robert W. Field, Organist; Bro. William R. Hamilton, Tyler.<br />
<br />
For my assignment as Secretary, I had informed my friend, Brother Keyes, it would be on a temporary basis, but it was a forty-one year term, but I look back on those years with many, many pleasant memories and have never regretted the years of service to the Lodge and members. I was raised in Roswell Lee Lodge in 1911 and Bro. Keyes was the Senior Steward. I also became acquainted with Wor. Samuel D. Sherwood. Our Lodge has been fortunate in the fifty years in having only two secretaries.<br />
<br />
In the Grand Master's address he referred to the inspiration of the memory of Rt. Wor. Samuel D. Sherwood, who had been<br />
a loved and honored associate of many present, and commented on the unusual but pleasant fact, that Rt. Wor. Brother Sherwood's son was the Junior Warden of the Lodge. I am pleased to note five of the brothers installed continued to advance and in due time each was installed Worshipful Master of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Additional brethren had signed as Charter members, making the total eighty five of which seventy-five were present for the Constitution Ceremony. Some of the brethren afterwards requested demits and continued their membership in their original Lodge, and many have passed on to the Lodge above where no traveler returns. At present eight remain on our roll, namely; Bros. Samuel T. Brumfield, residing in California; Samuel Segal, Jr., in Chicago, Ill.; Wor. Glenn W. Hamilton, in Florida; and locally, Wor. John E. Jones, Brothers Jacob Tribelhorn, Herbert F. Payne, Clyde W. Young and Wor. Ashley B. Clark, a Past Master of Globe Lodge of Hinsdale, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
We were very fortunate in receiving many gifts, the most cherished of all the beautiful Bible you see on our Altar. It was a gift from Mrs. Samuel D. Sherwood. It was made in England and the first pages contain an engraved photo of Rt. Wor. Samuel D. Sherwood, his history, the names of the first Officers and also Charter members.<br />
<br />
These fifty years have been busy ones, beginning with the first communication when seventeen applications were received. For the period from June 3, 1921 to September 29, 1922, prior to our first Annual meeting, fifty-seven candidates received the Master Mason degree. However, the busy year was 1944, during the term of Wor. Oscar J. Carlson when sixty-five candidates were made Master Masons. In the twenty-fifth history booklet, I reported 686 applications received and as the Secretary recently read number 1372, we have also received 686 during the last twenty-five years. Our membership as of March 12, 1971 was 744. Two hundred and twenty-five reside outside the Springfield area, with forty-three in Florida, twenty-two in California, one in Manila, P.I. a few in the Military Service and the rest in other states.<br />
<br />
During World War II, there were fifty-nine members serving in the Armed Services and in all parts of the World. I am pleased to state all returned home to continue their membership. While in the Service, dues were remitted and I corresponded with them enclosing their receipt and received many letters and cards from them.<br />
<br />
We have had the pleasure of receiving four Grand Masters, Most Worshipful Arthur D. Prince at the time of Constitution; Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHDean Herbert W. Dean] made a Fraternal Visit on November 6, 1931; Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel H. Wragg] at the time of our twenty-fifth anniversary on May 17, 1946; and Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWJohnson Whitfield W. Johnson], who was in the Temple for a reception for Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHHolley Henry O. Holley], Senior Grand Warden in 1955. It was Past Master, Rt. Wor. Raymond L. Chisholm, who was District Deputy Grand Master for our district, who contacted Most Worshipful Brother Johnson and invited him to stop in for a few moments.<br />
<br />
Many degrees have been conferred by degree teams from Organizations where the candidate was employed. All teams were composed of Past Masters or other officers of various Lodges. The Melha Shrine now have a degree team who are all Past Masters and accept invitations to confer degrees and they make a fine impression in the lodge room, not only to the members on the side lines, but to the candidate as well. Our Chicopee Eighteenth District has a Masters and Wardens degree team and visiting each Lodge in the District. These special occasions have helped for a larger attendance. In 1970, our Worshipful Master, Allen G. Zippin, had the pleasure of conferring the degrees upon his father, Joseph B. Zippin.<br />
<br />
In the year 1941, a young man by the name of Roger Elton Johnson applied for the degrees, was elected and duly received the Master Mason degree. In 1944 he accepted an office as Junior Steward and in October 1950 was installed Worshipful Master. In 1960, Roger Elton Johnson, Jr., applied, was elected and his father participated in all the degrees for his son.<br />
In 1965, Roger, Jr. accepted an office and again it happened to be Junior Steward. It was son like father, as it was only six years for both to be installed Worshipful Master, and was installed by his father, October 23, 1970, the fiftieth Master of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge.<br />
<br />
Our Annual Member's nights, Family Nights and Bibbitt Whist parties have been very popular with a very good attendance. In past years, we made visits to out-of-state lodges. The longest trip was to Lyndonville, Vermont, a distance of two hundred miles each way, where we conferred the Master Mason degree upon our candidate who was a teacher in the Lyndon College. We had combined meetings with the six Lodges meeting in our Temple, with officers from all Lodges assigned some part in the degree work. The attendance was extremely good when these meetings were held.<br />
<br />
With the exception of only one, our Installations have been public ceremonies. Families and friends of our members enjoy attending these occasions. At least ten or twelve Past Masters participate and install one or more officers. The retiring Master is presented a Past Master's apron and also a Jewel. The Jewel is of a special design we have used for over the fifty years.<br />
We have lost eighteen of our Past Masters by the hand of the Great Reaper; Wor. Robert G. Schellenger, passed away during his term as Worshipful Master. Four have been honored with an appointment of District Deputy Grand Master for the Chicopee Eighteenth Masonic District. Each one was a fine representative of the Grand Master as well as being very popular in the district. Wor. Hassan S. Thomas was honored with an appointment to serve in Grand Lodge as a Junior Grand Steward in the year 1930 and Wor. Philip R. Higgins is serving this year as a Junior Grand Steward.<br />
<br />
It was a severe loss to our Lodge as well as to the fraternity when Right Worshipful Karl W. Hofman was taken from us by death on August 30, 1969, at the age of sixty-one. He received the degrees in 1930, was Worshipful Master in 1940 and<br />
District Deputy Grand Master in the years 1945-1946. He served as Treasurer of our Lodge for seventeen years and Chairman of the twenty-fifty Anniversary Committee. He was always ready to take part in degree work or installations and was par-excellent in both. He was a member of both York and Scottish Rite Bodies and participated in the Scottish Rite degrees. He was an Honorary member of the Supreme Council 33rd Degree, also York Rite, Knight of the Red Cross of Constantine, Mexico and Philippines.<br />
<br />
Our Past Master, Wor. Andrew A. Sylvester, with the exception of three years has been the installing Marshal for the last thirty installations, and is second to none in that capacity. He was a former DeMolay member and Master Councilor.<br />
Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge has been very fortunate to have had officers of excellent quality, who take pride and interest in conferring degrees in a dignified and impressive manner.<br />
<br />
In the year 1956, we were requested to confer the Fellow-craft and Master Mason Degrees on Entered Apprentice Brother Ira Klamis Mushahwa, a candidate of Golden Throne Lodge, No. 1344, of Jerusalem, Palestine, and to show his appreciation for the courtesy, he presented us a small box made from olive wood, and the box contained seven Masonic Emblems made from King Solomon's Quarry.<br />
<br />
December 16, 1965 at the time Rt. Wor. Robert D. Flint was making his last Fraternal Visit to our Lodge, officers of the five Lodges in the Chicopee Eighteenth Masonic District, who were Worshipful Masters during the two years of his term, accompanied him on his Suite. It was a surprise to him to have them all present, and they were invited to confer the degree, which made a very pleasant occasion for all concerned. This courtesy to the District Deputy has since become a regular occasion.<br />
<br />
In the year 1964, Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge established a special Plaque, named the Rt. Wor. Dwight H. Keyes Award, to be presented to a member of our Lodge as an award to show appreciation for service to the Lodge and fraternity, and the first presentation was made to our distinguished, beloved and "DAP" of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge. It was our District Deputy Grand Master, Rt. Wor. Robert D. Flint, who had the honor of making the presentation on October 23, 1964, following the completion of the Installation Ceremony. Brother Dwight knew nothing of this Plaque until it was presented and it has since been a surprise to future recipients. The wording on the Plaque was as follows: <br />
<p align=center><br />
RT. WOR. DWIGHT H. KEYES AWARD <br><br />
— For Meritorious Service Presented to Rt. Wor. Dwight H. Keyes —<br><br />
<br>by <br><br />
Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge, A. F. & A. M. Oct. 23, 1964.<br />
</p><br />
Other presentations have been to Rt. Wor. Karl W. Hofman, 196S; Bro. Herbert E. Payne, 1966; Bro. Frank Edminson, 1967; Bro. Axel G. Larson, 1968; Rt. Wor. Robert D. Flint, 1969 and Wor. Frederick E. Aggerup, 1970.<br />
<br />
The Joseph Warren Distinguished Service Medal established by the Grand Lodge in 1931, to be presented to members of the fraternity for distinguished service, has been received by Rt. Wor. Dwight H. Keyes, Bro. Herbert F. Payne and Rt. Wor. Karl W. Hofman.<br />
<br />
Some Charter and Affiliated members have become fifty-year members and have received the Grand Lodge Veterans' Medals. There are ten on the membership at present and a possible seven to be honored in 1971.<br />
<br />
Our Organist is now serving his thirty-fourth year and our Secretary the ninth year. Both of these officers are excellent in the ritual and ready to assist at any station whenever necessary. Our Junior Deacon is the son of Past Master, Wor. Charles H. Robinson, Sr., and it may be another Father and Son Installation when Junior arrives in the East.<br />
<br />
The Annual Past Master's Night is always a pleasant event and they all enjoy returning to take part in a degree.<br />
<br />
Our Blood Donors program has progressed over the years. I assumed the Chairmanship in 1962, following the business<br />
of the previous Brother taking him out of town. We have some dedicated members as well as wives, sons and daughters, also friends who donate several times a year. Many of them are donors of several gallons, and have received Blood pins from the Red Cross and our fraternity. I have a record card for each one since taking over the program. Our quota is ninety, and I am pleased to state we have exceeded it several times.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, I believe it appropriate to again use the thoughts of Rt. Wor. Karl W. Hofman as he expressed them in our Twenty-five year history. He was a dedicated Masonic Brother and had great vision for our Lodge as well as Masonry. His thoughts were as follows:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Many times the success of the future must be prefaced by the things that have come out of the past. Foundations have to be placed deep to keep an Empire State Building from weaving in the winds. Life does not come to full fruition in a day, nor a month, or even years. We believe we have enjoyed a past of the right sort and it has given us that foundation worth while to install in us an incentive to be worthy of the past in our actions of today. Life is moving ahead of us, and with us, and we walk ahead. We must keep in step, the man who lags behind will be covered with the dust of those who are forging ahead. Traditions are hard to forget. We do not want to forget them so far as they have built things worth while, but there are things ahead, if we have the vision, that will surpass those things behind us, and we are only in swaddling clothes today. It is to the future of Samuel D. Sherwood Lodge that we, as Master Masons have set our forces, and we shall carry on till the end of time, and go forward to bigger and better things."<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, MAY 1963 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1963-102:''<br />
<br />
''by Brother David Greer.''<br />
<br />
Most Masons are familiar with the story of Masonry in the early days of Massachusetts. Undoubtedly it was first brought to these shores by officers of British regiments stationed here in Colonial days. Masonry numbered among its most active members many of those who were also the active patriots of Revolutionary days. The names of General [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJsWarren Warren] and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere] come readily to our minds, but many others were members of the Committees on Correspondence which nurtured the Revolutionary spirit in the various towns and villages.<br />
<br />
By 1733 when Saint John's Grand Lodge was instituted, incidentally just 230 years ago this month, Masonry was well established and continued to grow, until in June of 1825 it probably achieved its peak with the laying of the corner-stone of Bunker Hill Monument in which the Marquis de Lafayette participated.<br />
<br />
It was in 1826 that one Morgan departed from Batavia, New York, for Smyrna, where it is said he was afterwards seen; or for some other place; but it is not known where he went. The material fact is that he departed, and that his departure occasioned the most tremendous sensation all over the United States. It was the beginning of the anti-Masonic excitement. Many bodies were forced to give up their charters and many others kept going through the dedicated activities of a very few of their numbers. It was not until the 40's that this situation appeared to change.<br />
<br />
During this period of time there was only one Masonic Lodge in Cambridge, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicable] Lodge, which had been instituted in 1805. In 1854, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Putnam Putnam] Lodge was instituted.<br />
<br />
With the coming of the Civil War when brother was set against brother, there was also a trend which seemed to bring people more closely together and to establish a need which appeared to be filled by Masonic Lodges. In response to this demand, on January 22, 1863, fourteen brothers met at the home of Brother Francis H. Brown in Cambridge for the purpose of presenting a petition to the Grand Lodge for the establishment of a new Lodge in Cambridge. I like to think that it is significant that these brothers banded themselves together to perpetuate the principles of our Order in the same year in which Abraham Lincoln, standing on the battlefield of Gettysburg, with the results of the great war between the States still in question, called upon the people of the North to dedicate themselves to the advancement of the principles far which those who had died there had given, as he put it, "the last full measure of devotion."<br />
<br />
At the first meeting it was voted that the Lodge be called Harvard Lodge, but this vote was later reconsidered and on February 4, 1863, the name of Mount Olivet Lodge was adopted.<br />
<br />
A dispensation was granted by the Most Worshipful Grand Master, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], appointing Benjamin F. Nourse as Master, Thomas H. Crowell as Senior Warden and Henry W. Muzzey as Junior Warden.<br />
<br />
The first regular meeting under dispensation was held at the residence of Brother William Wright on Mt. Auburn Street.<br />
<br />
The first degree work was on February 19, 1864, when W. Greene Howe, J. P. Wallace and Isaac Bradford were initiated. Isaac Bradford was later Worshipful Master and Mayor of Cambridge.<br />
<br />
The Lodge operated originally under the By-Laws of Amicable Lodge which were adopted temporarily.<br />
<br />
During the year of dispensation, meetings were held on the average of one each week.<br />
<br />
On March 18, 1864, the Charter was issued by the Most Worshipful Grand Master William Parkman who finally constituted E3e Lodge and installed the officers. The officers installed were as fellows:<br />
* Master, Henry W. Muzzey<br />
* Senior Warden, Francis H. Brown<br />
* Junior Warden, Joseph R. Richards<br />
* Treasurer, William Wright<br />
* Secretary, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCHarris Charles Harris]<br />
* Chaplain, Nathaniel G. Allen<br />
* Marshal, Gustavus F. Sargent<br />
* Senior Deacon, Isaac Bradford<br />
* Junior Deacon, Edward D. Harris<br />
* Senior Steward, Frederick T. Stevens<br />
* Junior Steward, Obediah D. Witherill<br />
* Inside Sentinel, Benjamin H. Nickerson<br />
* Tyler, John L. Jones<br />
It is interesting to note that the name Nickerson which occurs among the first officers under the Charter is also borne by our present Senior Deacon.<br />
<br />
The Mother Lodge, Amicable, sent her most distinguished son, Worshipful and Reverend [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLLPaige Lucius R. Paige], to represent her at the ceremonies, and he was also the custodian of a beautiful set of Jewels, Collars and Aprons, the gift of the Worshipful Master, Wardens and twenty members of Amicable Lodge as a token of their friendship and good wishes.<br />
<br />
The first meeting place was in the building of the Union Railway Company on Dunster Street and was procured at a cost of $150.00 per year. After meeting on Dunster Street for seven years the Lodge moved to premises of the Union Horse Railroad Company at a rental of $300.00 per year.<br />
<br />
On February 15, 1883, thirteen years later, the Lodge moved to Masonic Hall near Central Square and in December of that year joined the Masonic Hall Association, Worshipful Brothers Jonathan Bigelow, James A. Martin and Michael J. Farrell being elected directors of the Association.<br />
<br />
In February 1904 the several lodges in Cambridge changed their meeting place to Odd Fellows Hall in North Cambridge.<br />
<br />
In January 1908 the land upon which this Temple stands was acquired and on June 30, 1910, the corner stone of this building was laid by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFlanders Dana Judson Flanders], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
'''Ceremonies of Laying the Corner Stone of the Masonic Temple'''<br><br />
''Thursday, June 30, 1910''<br />
<br />
The several Masonic Bodies sponsoring the New Building assembled at Odd Fellows Hall in North Cambridge at 1:30 P.M. and formed a procession consisting of Carter's Band of Boston, and members of Cambridge Commandery #42 Knights Templar, Cambridge Royal Arch Chapter, Amicable Lodge, Putnam Lodge, Mount Olivet Lodge, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Mizpah Mizpah] Lodge and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Charity2 Charity] Lodge, and paraded to the residence of Brother John C. Dow on Sacramento Street, where they were joined by Most Worshipful Dana Judson Flanders, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and marched to the site of the New Temple to perform the ceremonies «f laying the Corner Stone.<br />

Mount Olivet Lodge has been and still is a gregarious Lodge. As far back as June, 1899, Wor. Albert F. Fish being then the Worshipful Master, the Brothers chartered a boat from the Eastern Steamship Company and sailed to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, to visit Scotia Lodge No. 31, where they exemplified the degrees according to the Massachusetts ritual. The Lodge members were accompanied by the band of what was then Massachusetts Manual Training School, now the Rindge Technical School, who furnished music going and coming. This visit was returned on May 16, 1901, when thirty members of Scotia Lodge arrived on the steamship ''Yarmouth''. They were entertained at the Quincy House at a banquet and were given a special ride through the subway and by way of Brookline, Newton and Watertown to the Lodge Rooms in North Cambridge.<br />
<br />
In 1902 the members again put to sea by chartered steamship, this time to Halifax, Nova Scotia, where they visited St. Andrew's Lodge No. 1 and Virgin Lodge No. 3 and exemplified the degree work. Virgin Lodge members paid a return visit to Mount Olivet on October 5, 1903, and in the presence of the Most Worshipful Grand Master of Nova Scotia they exemplified the degrees.<br />
<br />
On March 3, 1911, under the administration of Wor. Jesse Moreland, Redwood Lodge No. 35 of Providence, Rhode Island, visited Mount Olivet and exemplified the Master Mason degree. On May 8 a return visit was made to Redwood Lodge by a special train manned entirely by members of the Craft. The train made the trip in what was then a record time.<br />
<br />
Between the years 1932 and 1938, Mount Vernon Lodge No. 4 of Providence, Rhode Island, visited Mount Olivet Lodge on four different occasions and there were three return visits to Providence. The fourth scheduled return visit was cancelled due to a hurricane in 1938. The reason for the number of visits lies in the fact that during a major portion of this time Wor. Chester T. Morey, a brother of two of the Past Masters of Mount Olivet, was an officer of Mount Vernon Lodge of Providence.<br />
<br />
In June of 1956 Wor. Cecil A. Batson, being then presiding Master, the Lodge journeyed by bus to Portland, Maine. A visit was made to Deering Lodge No. 183 and the degree of Master Mason was exemplified. Deering Lodge subsequently returned this visit.<br />
<br />
In 1957 Morning Star Lodge No. 13 of Woonsocket, Rhode Island, visited Mount Olivet Lodge and exemplified the Master Mason degree during the administration of Wor. William Turchinetz. In May, 1961, Mount Olivet Lodge returned this visit and exemplified the Master Mason degree in Morning Star Lodge. As a part of the visit there was a social meeting at the Ukranian Masonic Club which was enjoyed by all who attended.<br />
<br />
One of the outstanding events in the history of the Lodge was the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEndicott#AT_CAMBRIDGE_CITY_HALL_DEDICATION.2C_MAY_1889 laying of the corner-stone] of the new City Hall in Cambridge. Pursuant to a call from Most Worshipful Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEndicott Henry Endicott], a special Communication was held on May 15, 1889. Sixty members assembled in the Lodge Room at 2:30 p.m. and joining with members of our sister Lodges: Amicable, Putnam, Mizpah and Charity paraded to the City Hall site, where the corner-stone was laid with appropriate Masonic ceremonies. A banquet followed the exercises.<br />
<br />
One of the most conspicuous events ever held by the Lodge was the celebration of our Fiftieth Anniversary under the administration of Wor. Royal G. Furbish, when a Ladies' Night was held. The program consisted of a banquet, entertainment and dance, also refreshments on the lawn. The hall was filled to capacity where an Historical Sketch of the Lodge was given by Rt. Wor. Walter C. Wardwell. The party was concluded at one o'clock in the morning.<br />
<br />
During World War I there were held a number of patriotic meetings, the most prominent one being held on May 4, 1917, in the administration of Wor. Irving R. Heath. Members with their ladies and friends gathered in the Lodge Room, where the first speaker was Brother John Kinnear, who was the first volunteer for service in the Civil War and a Past Master of Gate of the Temple Lodge of South Boston. The orator of the evening was Wor. Brother Guy Ham, Senior Warden of the same Lodge, who gave a stirring oration. About 300 were in attendance. Dancing and refreshments were enjoyed until midnight.<br />
<br />
Many Ladies' Nights were held by the Lodge, but the largest ones were held in 1921 and 1922 under the administration of Wor. Robert J. Fawcett, when over 500 attended.<br />
<br />
On April 5, 1929, under the administration of Wor. George H. Jones, an Armed Forces Night was held. Rt. Wor. Walter C. Wardwell was Master of Ceremonies and paid a glowing tribute to the Veterans of whom were present 4 members who had service<br />
<br />
in the Spanish-American War, and 39 in World War I. Twenty-two had served in the Army, 12 in the Navy and 5 in the British Forces.<br />
On February 5, 1932 under the administration of Wor. Henry J. Baker, a musical comedy in two acts was put on named "Mount Olivet Lodge Frivolities." There were five scenes, one of which was a minstrel show, two were comedies, and two musicals. Dancing and refreshments followed the show. About 450 attended, and there were about 40 in the cast.<br />
<br />
On February 3, 1938, under the administration of Wor. Richard A. Wason, the Seventy-fifth Anniversary of the Lodge was celebrated, followed by dancing. After a turkey dinner, a short history of the Lodge was read by the Master. Rt. Wor. Jacob C. Patton, who resided in North Carolina, was present and spoke of the early days of the Lodge. He was Master in 1887 and 1888 and had been a member of the Lodge for 58 years. Rt. Wor. Walter C. Wardwell also spoke of the early days, he having been Master 45 years previous, and had also been Mayor of Cambridge.<br />
<br />
An organization may be said to be the sum of its component parts; however, we generally find that the real effectiveness of an organization transcends the sum of the individuals that make it up; yet from another point of view no organization can go beyond the accomplishments of its members since it is only through them that it can act at all.<br />
<br />
Mount Olivet Lodge has been fortunate in numbering among its members through the years, dedicated Masons who have not only devoted themselves to the advancement of the principles of Freemasonry through the Lodge, but also in and through other Masonic bodies.<br />
<br />
Of the seventy-two Worshipful Masters of Mount Olivet Lodge, seven have been Ex. High Priests, Ill. Masters and Em. Commanders: Brothers Charles Harris, Lafayette G. Blair, Howard F. Peck, Sr., Otis B. Oakman, Herwald Dowden, Harold C. Morey, and V. George Badoian; and in addition, Brother [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCHarris Charles Harris] was Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aberdour Aberdour] Lodge, Junior Grand Warden, and Grand King. Two, Brothers Warren P. Dudley and Arthur S. Morey, have been Ex. High Priests and Em. Commanders. Two, Brothers Howard F. Peak, Jr., and Frank E. Buxton, have been Ex. High Priests and Ill. Masters. One, Brother Abram Anthony, has been an Ill. Master and Em. Commander. Six, Brothers Raymond F. Libby, Harry J. Baker, Robert D. Phelps, William H. Switzer, James A. Martin, and William Turchinetz, have been Ex. High Priests. Two, Brothers George C. Edwards and Herbert F. Silva, have been Ill. Masters. Two, Brothers Walter C. Wardwell and Charles L. Hamilton, have been Em. Commanders. Of the members of Mount Olivet Lodge who have not been elected to preside over the Lodge, one, Bro. Mark Mavrofrides, who is our present Inside Sentinel, has served as Ex. High Priest, Ill. Master, and Em. Commander. Two, Brothers Arthur H. B. Stephens and David Greer, have been Ex. High Priests and Ill. Masters. One, Brother Emil Showgren, has been an Ex. High Priest. One, Brother Henrik Osterland, has been an Ill. Master. One, Brother Henry W. Hall, has been an Em. Commander.<br />
<br />
In addition, three Brothers of Mount Olivet have been Masters of other Lodges in this jurisdiction: Wor. Albert A. Lamson, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Shawmut Shawmut] Lodge in Boston; Wor. W. D. Schofield, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=BostonUniversity Boston University] Lodge in Boston; Wor. Robert L. Vaughan, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Waltham Waltham] Lodge in Waltham. Four Brothers have been Masters of Lodges outside this jurisdiction: Wor. Melvin B. Dunbar, Master of Social Lodge No. 50, Enfield, N. H.; Wor. Herbert H. Haines, Master of Etonian Lodge of St. John No. 209, Windsor, England; Wor. W. Allan Mitchell, Master of Father Thames Lodge No. 1615, Staines, England; Wor. Frank H. Rudy, Master of Lancaster Lodge No. 43, Lancaster, Pa.; and he was also Ex. High Priest of Royal Arch Chapter No. 1, Lancaster, Pa.<br />
<br />
Starting in 1864 Mount Olivet Lodge steadily increased its membership. In 1885 it had reached 121 members; in 1895, 151; in 1905, 249; in 1915, 361; in 1925, 582, and in 1927, it reached its peak of 593. From this point, membership began to drop. In<br />
1937 it had dropped to 436; in 1947, to 396. It then began to increase again and by 1957 had reached 455 members, where it leveled off until 1962 when it dropped to 440.<br />
<br />
Life memberships constitute an important factor in the membership of Mount Olivet. When first instituted in 1915 there were 79, which was a little over 20% of the entire membership. When the overall membership was at its peak in 1927, it was about the same proportion. But as overall membership dropped off, the proportion of life members of course increased so that in 1953, life membership accounted for approximately one-half of the total membership. In 1962 life members represent approximately 44%.<br />
Reading over the list of early members indicates that no particular ethnic strain predominated, but when membership reached its peak in 1927 there were more brothers of Scandinavian descent than any other grouping, the second largest group being those of Scotch and North Irish descent, many of whom came to the United States by way of the Maritime provinces of Canada. Today Mount Olivet is truly a melting pot.<br />
<br />
The ancestral background of the officers of Mount Olivet Lodge follows:<br />
* Master: Wor. Herbert F. Silva, ''Portuguese''<br />
* Senior Warden: Bro. Philip Matthews, ''Polish and Russian''<br />
* Junior Warden: Bro. David Frenchko, ''Ukranian"<br />
* Treasurer: Bro. Louis Klashman, ''Russian"<br />
* Secretary: Wor. Harold C. Morey, ''English"<br />
* Chaplain: Wor. George C. Edwards, ''Australian"<br />
* Marshal: Wor. Anthony Pasak, ''Ukranian"<br />
* Senior Deacon: Bro. Paul E. Nickerson, ''Scottish"<br />
* Junior Deacon: Bro. David Greer, ''Scotch and Irish"<br />
* Senior Steward: Bro. Walter A. Guleserian, ''Armenian"<br />
* Junior Steward: Bro. Michael P. Villane, ''Italian"<br />
* Inside Sentinel: Bro. Mark Mavrofrides, ''Greek"<br />
* Tyler: Bro. Henrik A. Osterland, ''Scandinavian"<br />
* Organist: Bro. C. Emerson Fox, ''Scotch, Irish and English"<br />
<br />
Mount Olivet has never been a wealthy Lodge, but it is in reasonably good financial condition, having assets of approximately $39,000. Of this, $4,300 is earmarked for the Anniversary Fund, $700 for the Life Membership Fund, approximately $19,000 for the General Fund and the balance in Charitable Funds. The funds of the Lodge are invested in savings and cooperative banks and United States bonds with the exception of a small amount of preferred stock of the American Thread Company.<br />
<br />
We now stand like Janus, the sentinel of the Gods, facing one way toward the accomplishments of our first century with some feeling of satisfaction, but also like that double-faced sentinel we face forward into the sunrise for our second century in which with the help of the Grand Architect of the Universe we will dedicate ourselves to an increased devotion to Him, to our country and to our Brethren that in this century our accomplishments may far outrun those of the last.<br />

=== EVENTS ===<br />
<br />
==== CONSECRATION OF LODGE, DECEMBER 1863 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXIII, No. 6, April, 1864, Page 178:''<br />
<br />
This is the name of a new Lodge located at Cambridge, near the Colleges. It was Chartered by the Grand Lodge on the 9th of December — having worked a year under Dispensation — and was Constituted and publicly Dedicated on the 18th. It occupies a new and commodious hall, with convenient and spacious ante-rooms, all of which are neatly fitted up and furnished. Indeed, there are but few halls in the State, which, as a whole, are more complete and appropriate.<br />
<br />
The Consecration services took place in the afternoon, and the Dedication of the Hall and the Installation of the officers in the evening, the latter in the presence of ladies and other invited guests. At the conclusion of these services the R. W. Bro. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLLPaige Paige], in behalf of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicabl]e Lodge, at Cambridgeport, of which the new Lodge is an off-shoot, rose, and after briefly and appropriately referring to the past history of the parent Lodge, and some of the interesting memories connected with its progress, presented to the new Body a very beautiful set of Jewels, Collars and Aprons for its officers. They were gracefully received by the Master of the new Lodge, and the officers were invested with them. The M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master] then delivered the customary charge, and the ceremonies closed.<br />
<br />
The occasion was one of more than usual interest, and we believe all parties were pleased with the result. The officers of the Grand Lodge and of the new Lodge were kindly received and hospitably entertained at tea by Brother Sawin, a member of the Lodge, to whom, and his lady, the party are under obligation.<br />
<br />
The officers installed are as follows :—<br />
* Henry W. Muzzey, W. M.<br />
* Francis H. Brown, S. W. <br />
* Joseph R. Richards, J, W.<br />
* William Wright, Treas.<br />

==== PRESENTATION, MARCH 1878 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. II, No. 1, April 1878, Page 18:''<br />
<br />
At the last communication of Mount Olivet Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, at Old Cambridge, on Thursday evening, March 21, a large attendance of "brothers of the mystic tie" was present, especially of those of elderly years. A very finely finished photographic portrait of Worshipful Brother William Wright, made by Black, of Boston, and set in a beautiful frame of black walnut, ornamented with gold, had been placed on the wall. After the usual business was finished, Right Worshipful Brother Henry W. Muzzey, Charter Master of the Lodge, arose and presented the Portrait to the Lodge, in behalf of certain members, with the following remarks:<br />
<blockquote><br />
''Worshipful Master:'' — I rise to discharge, with your leave, an exceptional though a pleasant duty, that devolves upon me, by the appointment of the subscribers to the paper which I now read:<br><br />
<br><br />
"To the W. Master, Wardens and members of Mount Olivet Lodge: — The undersigned, members of this Lodge, tender for your acceptance, a Portrait of W. Past Master, William Wright. They are moved to do this out of respect for his many and valuable services rendered to the Lodge in various capacities, including services in the highest office within its gift, and because they felt that some permanent memorial of him should exist. Fraternally yours, signed lay Benjamin F. Nourse, Henry W. Muzzey, Hiram L. Chase, M. D., Isaac Bradford, Edward S. Phillips, Charles E. Willard, Charles L. Fuller, Lemuel Kempton, and twenty-five others."<br><br />
<br><br />
The letter says all that need be said to express the purposes of the donors, and to indicate the title of our Past Master to the honor intended to be conferred. It may be permitted to me, however, to add a word or two to what the formal letter of presentation contains. Our Worshipful Brother was a Charter member of this Lodge, and its lilih Master. Before his elevation to the East he had served the Lodge as Treasurer and Senior Warden, and after his retirement from the Chair, he was chosen an honorary member and a Trustee of the Charity and Lodge Funds, distinctions and trusts which he continues to hold. With what fidelity and credit he has served the Lodge, our records show, but I cannot permit his presence to restrain me from alluding to trre unwritten record of his true and noble Masonic life, faithful to all the principles and tenets of Masonry, he would have been one of the best of Masons had he never taken a vow at its altar. Naturally modest, sensible, charitable, honest, pure in heart and God fearing, he did not need its requirements—'its promptings and restraints — for the development of his life or the rule of his conduct. Of him it may be said, in the golden words of President Kirkland, "He needed not the sting of guilt to make him innocent, nor the smart of folly to make him wise." <br><br />
<br><br />
His Portrait takes its place with those of others who, in their time, have striven for the welfare and upbuilding of this Lodge. Pardon me, but my heart and thought go back on this occasion to early days, and my eye wanders for a moment from the Portrait just hung upon these walls to the likeness of another, my cherished friend, the Lodge's earliest instructor and leading benefactor ''(W. Bro. B. F. Nourse.)'' As we add our Worshipful Brother's Portrait to the collection, I surely can pay him no higher tribute of respect than to say of both and of each, ''par nobile fratrum'' — two noble brothers wherever a good work is to be done, wherever a heart . needs solace or a foot encouragement, wherever a life can be uplifted^ wherever humanity can add a link to the golden chain that connects it with the Throne of God.<br><br />
<br><br />
Accept this Portrait. No brother can look upon it, now or hereafter, while he whom it so well represents is happily among us or after he shall have been called to that final account that awaits us all, without a fresh stimulus to walk in that path which he has so faithfully followed, and where his example points the way."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
For the satisfaction of the many friends of W. Bro. Wright, we are glad to say that while on a visit to England, last summer, he was received in Masonic circles with the highest tokens of regard, and entertains a kindly recollection of the hospitalities of the craft in that country.<br />
<br />
==== INSTALLATION, DECEMBER 1878 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. II, No. 10, January 1879, Page 315:''<br />
<br />

<br />
==== 50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION, JUNE 1913 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. VIII, No. 9, June 1913, Page 308:''<br />
<br />
On Wednesday evening, June 11, Mount Olivet Lodge of Cambridge celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of its institution in the Masonic Temple. The event was thoroughly enjoyed by a company of 300, including members and their wives and lady friends.<br />
<br />
The special guests included Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHFletcher Herbert E. Fletcher], D. G. M., of Grand Lodge; Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRLearned Roscoe E. Learned], D. D. G.

Davis], T. I. M., of Cambridge Council R. and S. M.; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJHamilton John Hamilton], W. M. of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicable] Lodge; Joseph A. Lincoln, W.

Elliott, P. M. of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aberdour Aberdour] Lodge; William L. Lathrop, P. M., and Oscar F. Allen, P. M., both honorary members of Mount Olivet Lodge; and Wor. Francis H. Brown, one of the three surviving charter members who was the first Secretary in 1863, and Wor. Master in 1866, and is now the senior of those who occupied that station. While the guests were assembling in the Lodge room there was an organ concert by Bro. Claude E. Sannier, after which the company proceeded to the banquet hall, where grace was offered by Rev. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFBeal Francis L. Beal], Chaplain of Putnam Lodge.<br />
<br />
On returning to the Lodge room Wor. Master Royal G. Furbush extended a royal welcome to the guests, expressing his wish that they would enjoy themselves and the evening would be one never to be forgotten by them. Deputy Grand Master Fletcher, on behalf of the Grand Lodge gave its welcome also to the guests of Mt. Olivet and congratulated Wor. Master Furbush on what they had provided for the anniversary celebration, and the happy faces in the assemblage indicated that they appreciated what was done. He spoke of the magnificert history of Mt. Olivet Lodge and said that Freemasonry stood for the best in life, and wherever its influence was felt it was for good. He could see nothing but more glory and power for Mt. Olivet.<br />
<br />
On Jan. 22, 1863, a meeting of Master Masons was held and 32 names were signed to a petition in which a dispensation was sought and the first three officers chosen were Benjamin F. Nourse, W. M.; Thomas H. Crowell, S. W., and Henry W. Muzzey, J. W.<br />
<br />
Wor. Walter C. Wardwell, the historian of the Lodge, stated that the Charter was received March 18, 1864, and four of the most notable names in the history of the fraternity in Massachusetts are appended to it. They are [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], G. M.; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGardner William S. Gardner], S. G. W.; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLBDean Benjamin Dean], J. G. W., and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GSCWMoore Charles W. Moore], G. Secretary. Of the 24 on the charter list the only three living are Dr. Francis H. Brown, Joseph H. Rice, and Nathan G. Gooch. The officers included Henry W. Muzzey, W. M.; Francis H. Brown, S. W.; Joseph R. Richards, J. W.; William Wright, Treas.; Charles Harris, Sec.; Nathaniel G. Allen, Chap.; Gustavus F. Sargent, Mar.; Isaac Bradford, S. D.; Edward D. Harris, J. D.; Frederick T. Stevens, S.

Jones, the first Tyler was the father of the present secretary, Wor. John L. Jones.<br />
<br />
There have been 31 presiding officers elected in Mt. Olivet Lodge. The surviving Past Masters are: Dr. Francis H. Brown, Dr. Hiram L. Chase, Charles H. Wiswell, Jacob C. Patton, Thomas J. Young, Walter C. Wardwell, John S. Patton, Warren P. Dudley, Albert F. Fish, Otis B. Oakman, Howard F. Peck, John L. Jones, Dr. Charles H. Thomas, Charles T. Cottrell and Jesse W. Moreland.<br />
<br />
An ovation was accorded Past Master Brown. ''Auld Lang Syne'' was sung, the company standing. He acknowledged the courtesy, and spoke of the old days, then alluded to the great advance made by the Lodge in its half-century. The program was finished by a vocal and instrumental concert and readings by accomplished artists.<br />
<br />
Following the entertainment, the company again proceeded to the banquet hall, where dancing was indulged in until one o'clock the following morning. A new idea in connection with social affairs of the Craft in Cambridge was the utilizing of the lawn surrounding the Temple. Here Japanese lanterns were hung, and refreshments were served in that inviting spot while the dancing was in progress.<br />

Most Masons are familiar with the story of Masonry in the early days of Massachusetts. Undoubtedly it was first brought to these shores by officers of British regiments stationed here in Colonial days. Masonry numbered among its most active members many of those who were also the active patriots of Revolutionary days. The names of General [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJsWarren Warren] and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere] come readily to our minds, but many others were members of the Committees on Correspondence which nurtured the Revolutionary spirit in the various towns and villages.<br />
<br />
By 1733 when Saint John's Grand Lodge was instituted, incidentally just 230 years ago this month, Masonry was well established and continued to grow, until in June of 1825 it probably achieved its peak with the laying of the corner-stone of Bunker Hill Monument in which the Marquis de Lafayette participated.<br />
<br />
It was in 1826 that one Morgan departed from Batavia, New York, for Smyrna, where it is said he was afterwards seen; or for some other place; but it is not known where he went. The material fact is that he departed, and that his departure occasioned the most tremendous sensation all over the United States. It was the beginning of the anti-Masonic excitement. Many bodies were forced to give up their charters and many others kept going through the dedicated activities of a very few of their numbers. It was not until the 40's that this situation appeared to change.<br />
<br />
During this period of time there was only one Masonic Lodge in Cambridge, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicable] Lodge, which had been instituted in 1805. In 1854, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Putnam Putnam] Lodge was instituted.<br />
<br />
With the coming of the Civil War when brother was set against brother, there was also a trend which seemed to bring people more closely together and to establish a need which appeared to be filled by Masonic Lodges. In response to this demand, on January 22, 1863, fourteen brothers met at the home of Brother Francis H. Brown in Cambridge for the purpose of presenting a petition to the Grand Lodge for the establishment of a new Lodge in Cambridge. I like to think that it is significant that these brothers banded themselves together to perpetuate the principles of our Order in the same year in which Abraham Lincoln, standing on the battlefield of Gettysburg, with the results of the great war between the States still in question, called upon the people of the North to dedicate themselves to the advancement of the principles far which those who had died there had given, as he put it, "the last full measure of devotion."<br />
<br />
At the first meeting it was voted that the Lodge be called Harvard Lodge, but this vote was later reconsidered and on February 4, 1863, the name of Mount Olivet Lodge was adopted.<br />
<br />
A dispensation was granted by the Most Worshipful Grand Master, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], appointing Benjamin F. Nourse as Master, Thomas H. Crowell as Senior Warden and Henry W. Muzzey as Junior Warden.<br />
<br />
The first regular meeting under dispensation was held at the residence of Brother William Wright on Mt. Auburn Street.<br />
<br />
The first degree work was on February 19, 1864, when W. Greene Howe, J. P. Wallace and Isaac Bradford were initiated. Isaac Bradford was later Worshipful Master and Mayor of Cambridge.<br />
<br />
The Lodge operated originally under the By-Laws of Amicable Lodge which were adopted temporarily.<br />
<br />
During the year of dispensation, meetings were held on the average of one each week.<br />
<br />
On March 18, 1864, the Charter was issued by the Most Worshipful Grand Master William Parkman who finally constituted E3e Lodge and installed the officers. The officers installed were as fellows:<br />
* Master, Henry W. Muzzey<br />
* Senior Warden, Francis H. Brown<br />
* Junior Warden, Joseph R. Richards<br />
* Treasurer, William Wright<br />
* Secretary, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCHarris Charles Harris]<br />
* Chaplain, Nathaniel G. Allen<br />
* Marshal, Gustavus F. Sargent<br />
* Senior Deacon, Isaac Bradford<br />
* Junior Deacon, Edward D. Harris<br />
* Senior Steward, Frederick T. Stevens<br />
* Junior Steward, Obediah D. Witherill<br />
* Inside Sentinel, Benjamin H. Nickerson<br />
* Tyler, John L. Jones<br />
It is interesting to note that the name Nickerson which occurs among the first officers under the Charter is also borne by our present Senior Deacon.<br />
<br />
The Mother Lodge, Amicable, sent her most distinguished son, Worshipful and Reverend [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLLPaige Lucius R. Paige], to represent her at the ceremonies, and he was also the custodian of a beautiful set of Jewels, Collars and Aprons, the gift of the Worshipful Master, Wardens and twenty members of Amicable Lodge as a token of their friendship and good wishes.<br />
<br />
The first meeting place was in the building of the Union Railway Company on Dunster Street and was procured at a cost of $150.00 per year. After meeting on Dunster Street for seven years the Lodge moved to premises of the Union Horse Railroad Company at a rental of $300.00 per year.<br />
<br />
On February 15, 1883, thirteen years later, the Lodge moved to Masonic Hall near Central Square and in December of that year joined the Masonic Hall Association, Worshipful Brothers Jonathan Bigelow, James A. Martin and Michael J. Farrell being elected directors of the Association.<br />
<br />
In February 1904 the several lodges in Cambridge changed their meeting place to Odd Fellows Hall in North Cambridge.<br />
<br />
In January 1908 the land upon which this Temple stands was acquired and on June 30, 1910, the corner stone of this building was laid by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFlanders Dana Judson Flanders], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
'''Ceremonies of Laying the Corner Stone of the Masonic Temple'''<br><br />
''Thursday, June 30, 1910''<br />
<br />
The several Masonic Bodies sponsoring the New Building assembled at Odd Fellows Hall in North Cambridge at 1:30 P.M. and formed a procession consisting of Carter's Band of Boston, and members of Cambridge Commandery #42 Knights Templar, Cambridge Royal Arch Chapter, Amicable Lodge, Putnam Lodge, Mount Olivet Lodge, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Mizpah Mizpah] Lodge and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Charity2 Charity] Lodge, and paraded to the residence of Brother John C. Dow on Sacramento Street, where they were joined by Most Worshipful Dana Judson Flanders, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and marched to the site of the New Temple to perform the ceremonies «f laying the Corner Stone.<br />

Mount Olivet Lodge has been and still is a gregarious Lodge. As far back as June, 1899, Wor. Albert F. Fish being then the Worshipful Master, the Brothers chartered a boat from the Eastern Steamship Company and sailed to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, to visit Scotia Lodge No. 31, where they exemplified the degrees according to the Massachusetts ritual. The Lodge members were accompanied by the band of what was then Massachusetts Manual Training School, now the Rindge Technical School, who furnished music going and coming. This visit was returned on May 16, 1901, when thirty members of Scotia Lodge arrived on the steamship ''Yarmouth''. They were entertained at the Quincy House at a banquet and were given a special ride through the subway and by way of Brookline, Newton and Watertown to the Lodge Rooms in North Cambridge.<br />
<br />
In 1902 the members again put to sea by chartered steamship, this time to Halifax, Nova Scotia, where they visited St. Andrew's Lodge No. 1 and Virgin Lodge No. 3 and exemplified the degree work. Virgin Lodge members paid a return visit to Mount Olivet on October 5, 1903, and in the presence of the Most Worshipful Grand Master of Nova Scotia they exemplified the degrees.<br />
<br />
On March 3, 1911, under the administration of Wor. Jesse Moreland, Redwood Lodge No. 35 of Providence, Rhode Island, visited Mount Olivet and exemplified the Master Mason degree. On May 8 a return visit was made to Redwood Lodge by a special train manned entirely by members of the Craft. The train made the trip in what was then a record time.<br />
<br />
Between the years 1932 and 1938, Mount Vernon Lodge No. 4 of Providence, Rhode Island, visited Mount Olivet Lodge on four different occasions and there were three return visits to Providence. The fourth scheduled return visit was cancelled due to a hurricane in 1938. The reason for the number of visits lies in the fact that during a major portion of this time Wor. Chester T. Morey, a brother of two of the Past Masters of Mount Olivet, was an officer of Mount Vernon Lodge of Providence.<br />
<br />
In June of 1956 Wor. Cecil A. Batson, being then presiding Master, the Lodge journeyed by bus to Portland, Maine. A visit was made to Deering Lodge No. 183 and the degree of Master Mason was exemplified. Deering Lodge subsequently returned this visit.<br />
<br />
In 1957 Morning Star Lodge No. 13 of Woonsocket, Rhode Island, visited Mount Olivet Lodge and exemplified the Master Mason degree during the administration of Wor. William Turchinetz. In May, 1961, Mount Olivet Lodge returned this visit and exemplified the Master Mason degree in Morning Star Lodge. As a part of the visit there was a social meeting at the Ukranian Masonic Club which was enjoyed by all who attended.<br />
<br />
One of the outstanding events in the history of the Lodge was the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEndicott#AT_CAMBRIDGE_CITY_HALL_DEDICATION.2C_MAY_1889 laying of the corner-stone] of the new City Hall in Cambridge. Pursuant to a call from Most Worshipful Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMEndicott Henry Endicott], a special Communication was held on May 15, 1889. Sixty members assembled in the Lodge Room at 2:30 p.m. and joining with members of our sister Lodges: Amicable, Putnam, Mizpah and Charity paraded to the City Hall site, where the corner-stone was laid with appropriate Masonic ceremonies. A banquet followed the exercises.<br />
<br />
One of the most conspicuous events ever held by the Lodge was the celebration of our Fiftieth Anniversary under the administration of Wor. Royal G. Furbish, when a Ladies' Night was held. The program consisted of a banquet, entertainment and dance, also refreshments on the lawn. The hall was filled to capacity where an Historical Sketch of the Lodge was given by Rt. Wor. Walter C. Wardwell. The party was concluded at one o'clock in the morning.<br />
<br />
During World War I there were held a number of patriotic meetings, the most prominent one being held on May 4, 1917, in the administration of Wor. Irving R. Heath. Members with their ladies and friends gathered in the Lodge Room, where the first speaker was Brother John Kinnear, who was the first volunteer for service in the Civil War and a Past Master of Gate of the Temple Lodge of South Boston. The orator of the evening was Wor. Brother Guy Ham, Senior Warden of the same Lodge, who gave a stirring oration. About 300 were in attendance. Dancing and refreshments were enjoyed until midnight.<br />
<br />
Many Ladies' Nights were held by the Lodge, but the largest ones were held in 1921 and 1922 under the administration of Wor. Robert J. Fawcett, when over 500 attended.<br />
<br />
On April 5, 1929, under the administration of Wor. George H. Jones, an Armed Forces Night was held. Rt. Wor. Walter C. Wardwell was Master of Ceremonies and paid a glowing tribute to the Veterans of whom were present 4 members who had service<br />
<br />
in the Spanish-American War, and 39 in World War I. Twenty-two had served in the Army, 12 in the Navy and 5 in the British Forces.<br />
On February 5, 1932 under the administration of Wor. Henry J. Baker, a musical comedy in two acts was put on named "Mount Olivet Lodge Frivolities." There were five scenes, one of which was a minstrel show, two were comedies, and two musicals. Dancing and refreshments followed the show. About 450 attended, and there were about 40 in the cast.<br />
<br />
On February 3, 1938, under the administration of Wor. Richard A. Wason, the Seventy-fifth Anniversary of the Lodge was celebrated, followed by dancing. After a turkey dinner, a short history of the Lodge was read by the Master. Rt. Wor. Jacob C. Patton, who resided in North Carolina, was present and spoke of the early days of the Lodge. He was Master in 1887 and 1888 and had been a member of the Lodge for 58 years. Rt. Wor. Walter C. Wardwell also spoke of the early days, he having been Master 45 years previous, and had also been Mayor of Cambridge.<br />
<br />
An organization may be said to be the sum of its component parts; however, we generally find that the real effectiveness of an organization transcends the sum of the individuals that make it up; yet from another point of view no organization can go beyond the accomplishments of its members since it is only through them that it can act at all.<br />
<br />
Mount Olivet Lodge has been fortunate in numbering among its members through the years, dedicated Masons who have not only devoted themselves to the advancement of the principles of Freemasonry through the Lodge, but also in and through other Masonic bodies.<br />
<br />
Of the seventy-two Worshipful Masters of Mount Olivet Lodge, seven have been Ex. High Priests, Ill. Masters and Em. Commanders: Brothers Charles Harris, Lafayette G. Blair, Howard F. Peck, Sr., Otis B. Oakman, Herwald Dowden, Harold C. Morey, and V. George Badoian; and in addition, Brother [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCHarris Charles Harris] was Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aberdour Aberdour] Lodge, Junior Grand Warden, and Grand King. Two, Brothers Warren P. Dudley and Arthur S. Morey, have been Ex. High Priests and Em. Commanders. Two, Brothers Howard F. Peak, Jr., and Frank E. Buxton, have been Ex. High Priests and Ill. Masters. One, Brother Abram Anthony, has been an Ill. Master and Em. Commander. Six, Brothers Raymond F. Libby, Harry J. Baker, Robert D. Phelps, William H. Switzer, James A. Martin, and William Turchinetz, have been Ex. High Priests. Two, Brothers George C. Edwards and Herbert F. Silva, have been Ill. Masters. Two, Brothers Walter C. Wardwell and Charles L. Hamilton, have been Em. Commanders. Of the members of Mount Olivet Lodge who have not been elected to preside over the Lodge, one, Bro. Mark Mavrofrides, who is our present Inside Sentinel, has served as Ex. High Priest, Ill. Master, and Em. Commander. Two, Brothers Arthur H. B. Stephens and David Greer, have been Ex. High Priests and Ill. Masters. One, Brother Emil Showgren, has been an Ex. High Priest. One, Brother Henrik Osterland, has been an Ill. Master. One, Brother Henry W. Hall, has been an Em. Commander.<br />
<br />
In addition, three Brothers of Mount Olivet have been Masters of other Lodges in this jurisdiction: Wor. Albert A. Lamson, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Shawmut Shawmut] Lodge in Boston; Wor. W. D. Schofield, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=BostonUniversity Boston University] Lodge in Boston; Wor. Robert L. Vaughan, Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Waltham Waltham] Lodge in Waltham. Four Brothers have been Masters of Lodges outside this jurisdiction: Wor. Melvin B. Dunbar, Master of Social Lodge No. 50, Enfield, N. H.; Wor. Herbert H. Haines, Master of Etonian Lodge of St. John No. 209, Windsor, England; Wor. W. Allan Mitchell, Master of Father Thames Lodge No. 1615, Staines, England; Wor. Frank H. Rudy, Master of Lancaster Lodge No. 43, Lancaster, Pa.; and he was also Ex. High Priest of Royal Arch Chapter No. 1, Lancaster, Pa.<br />
<br />
Starting in 1864 Mount Olivet Lodge steadily increased its membership. In 1885 it had reached 121 members; in 1895, 151; in 1905, 249; in 1915, 361; in 1925, 582, and in 1927, it reached its peak of 593. From this point, membership began to drop. In<br />
1937 it had dropped to 436; in 1947, to 396. It then began to increase again and by 1957 had reached 455 members, where it leveled off until 1962 when it dropped to 440.<br />
<br />
Life memberships constitute an important factor in the membership of Mount Olivet. When first instituted in 1915 there were 79, which was a little over 20% of the entire membership. When the overall membership was at its peak in 1927, it was about the same proportion. But as overall membership dropped off, the proportion of life members of course increased so that in 1953, life membership accounted for approximately one-half of the total membership. In 1962 life members represent approximately 44%.<br />
Reading over the list of early members indicates that no particular ethnic strain predominated, but when membership reached its peak in 1927 there were more brothers of Scandinavian descent than any other grouping, the second largest group being those of Scotch and North Irish descent, many of whom came to the United States by way of the Maritime provinces of Canada. Today Mount Olivet is truly a melting pot.<br />
<br />
The ancestral background of the officers of Mount Olivet Lodge follows:<br />
* Master: Wor. Herbert F. Silva, ''Portuguese''<br />
* Senior Warden: Bro. Philip Matthews, ''Polish and Russian''<br />
* Junior Warden: Bro. David Frenchko, ''Ukranian"<br />
* Treasurer: Bro. Louis Klashman, ''Russian"<br />
* Secretary: Wor. Harold C. Morey, ''English"<br />
* Chaplain: Wor. George C. Edwards, ''Australian"<br />
* Marshal: Wor. Anthony Pasak, ''Ukranian"<br />
* Senior Deacon: Bro. Paul E. Nickerson, ''Scottish"<br />
* Junior Deacon: Bro. David Greer, ''Scotch and Irish"<br />
* Senior Steward: Bro. Walter A. Guleserian, ''Armenian"<br />
* Junior Steward: Bro. Michael P. Villane, ''Italian"<br />
* Inside Sentinel: Bro. Mark Mavrofrides, ''Greek"<br />
* Tyler: Bro. Henrik A. Osterland, ''Scandinavian"<br />
* Organist: Bro. C. Emerson Fox, ''Scotch, Irish and English"<br />
<br />
Mount Olivet has never been a wealthy Lodge, but it is in reasonably good financial condition, having assets of approximately $39,000. Of this, $4,300 is earmarked for the Anniversary Fund, $700 for the Life Membership Fund, approximately $19,000 for the General Fund and the balance in Charitable Funds. The funds of the Lodge are invested in savings and cooperative banks and United States bonds with the exception of a small amount of preferred stock of the American Thread Company.<br />
<br />
We now stand like Janus, the sentinel of the Gods, facing one way toward the accomplishments of our first century with some feeling of satisfaction, but also like that double-faced sentinel we face forward into the sunrise for our second century in which with the help of the Grand Architect of the Universe we will dedicate ourselves to an increased devotion to Him, to our country and to our Brethren that in this century our accomplishments may far outrun those of the last.<br />

=== EVENTS ===<br />
<br />
==== CONSECRATION OF LODGE, DECEMBER 1863 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXIII, No. 6, April, 1864, Page 178:''<br />
<br />
This is the name of a new Lodge located at Cambridge, near the Colleges. It was Chartered by the Grand Lodge on the 9th of December — having worked a year under Dispensation — and was Constituted and publicly Dedicated on the 18th. It occupies a new and commodious hall, with convenient and spacious ante-rooms, all of which are neatly fitted up and furnished. Indeed, there are but few halls in the State, which, as a whole, are more complete and appropriate.<br />
<br />
The Consecration services took place in the afternoon, and the Dedication of the Hall and the Installation of the officers in the evening, the latter in the presence of ladies and other invited guests. At the conclusion of these services the R. W. Bro. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLLPaige Paige], in behalf of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Amicable Amicabl]e Lodge, at Cambridgeport, of which the new Lodge is an off-shoot, rose, and after briefly and appropriately referring to the past history of the parent Lodge, and some of the interesting memories connected with its progress, presented to the new Body a very beautiful set of Jewels, Collars and Aprons for its officers. They were gracefully received by the Master of the new Lodge, and the officers were invested with them. The M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master] then delivered the customary charge, and the ceremonies closed.<br />
<br />
The occasion was one of more than usual interest, and we believe all parties were pleased with the result. The officers of the Grand Lodge and of the new Lodge were kindly received and hospitably entertained at tea by Brother Sawin, a member of the Lodge, to whom, and his lady, the party are under obligation.<br />
<br />
The officers installed are as follows :—<br />
* Henry W. Muzzey, W. M.<br />
* Francis H. Brown, S. W. <br />
* Joseph R. Richards, J, W.<br />
* William Wright, Treas.<br />
* [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCHarris Charles Harris], Sec.<br />
* Nathaniel G. Allen, Chaplain<br />
* Gustavus F. Sargent, Marshal<br />
* Isaac Bradford, S. D.<br />

==== PRESENTATION, MARCH 1878 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. II, No. 1, April 1878, Page 18:''<br />
<br />
At the last communication of Mount Olivet Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, at Old Cambridge, on Thursday evening, March 21, a large attendance of "brothers of the mystic tie" was present, especially of those of elderly years. A very finely finished photographic portrait of Worshipful Brother William Wright, made by Black, of Boston, and set in a beautiful frame of black walnut, ornamented with gold, had been placed on the wall. After the usual business was finished, Right Worshipful Brother Henry W. Muzzey, Charter Master of the Lodge, arose and presented the Portrait to the Lodge, in behalf of certain members, with the following remarks:<br />
<blockquote><br />
''Worshipful Master:'' — I rise to discharge, with your leave, an exceptional though a pleasant duty, that devolves upon me, by the appointment of the subscribers to the paper which I now read:<br><br />
<br><br />
"To the W. Master, Wardens and members of Mount Olivet Lodge: — The undersigned, members of this Lodge, tender for your acceptance, a Portrait of W. Past Master, William Wright. They are moved to do this out of respect for his many and valuable services rendered to the Lodge in various capacities, including services in the highest office within its gift, and because they felt that some permanent memorial of him should exist. Fraternally yours, signed lay Benjamin F. Nourse, Henry W. Muzzey, Hiram L. Chase, M. D., Isaac Bradford, Edward S. Phillips, Charles E. Willard, Charles L. Fuller, Lemuel Kempton, and twenty-five others."<br><br />
<br><br />
The letter says all that need be said to express the purposes of the donors, and to indicate the title of our Past Master to the honor intended to be conferred. It may be permitted to me, however, to add a word or two to what the formal letter of presentation contains. Our Worshipful Brother was a Charter member of this Lodge, and its lilih Master. Before his elevation to the East he had served the Lodge as Treasurer and Senior Warden, and after his retirement from the Chair, he was chosen an honorary member and a Trustee of the Charity and Lodge Funds, distinctions and trusts which he continues to hold. With what fidelity and credit he has served the Lodge, our records show, but I cannot permit his presence to restrain me from alluding to trre unwritten record of his true and noble Masonic life, faithful to all the principles and tenets of Masonry, he would have been one of the best of Masons had he never taken a vow at its altar. Naturally modest, sensible, charitable, honest, pure in heart and God fearing, he did not need its requirements—'its promptings and restraints — for the development of his life or the rule of his conduct. Of him it may be said, in the golden words of President Kirkland, "He needed not the sting of guilt to make him innocent, nor the smart of folly to make him wise." <br><br />
<br><br />
His Portrait takes its place with those of others who, in their time, have striven for the welfare and upbuilding of this Lodge. Pardon me, but my heart and thought go back on this occasion to early days, and my eye wanders for a moment from the Portrait just hung upon these walls to the likeness of another, my cherished friend, the Lodge's earliest instructor and leading benefactor ''(W. Bro. B. F. Nourse.)'' As we add our Worshipful Brother's Portrait to the collection, I surely can pay him no higher tribute of respect than to say of both and of each, ''par nobile fratrum'' — two noble brothers wherever a good work is to be done, wherever a heart . needs solace or a foot encouragement, wherever a life can be uplifted^ wherever humanity can add a link to the golden chain that connects it with the Throne of God.<br><br />
<br><br />
Accept this Portrait. No brother can look upon it, now or hereafter, while he whom it so well represents is happily among us or after he shall have been called to that final account that awaits us all, without a fresh stimulus to walk in that path which he has so faithfully followed, and where his example points the way."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
For the satisfaction of the many friends of W. Bro. Wright, we are glad to say that while on a visit to England, last summer, he was received in Masonic circles with the highest tokens of regard, and entertains a kindly recollection of the hospitalities of the craft in that country.<br />
<br />

The program was finished by a vocal and instrumental concert and readings by accomplished artists.<br />
<br />
Following the entertainment, the company again proceeded to the banquet hall, where dancing was indulged in until one o'clock the following morning. A new idea in connection with social affairs of the Craft in Cambridge was the utilizing of the lawn surrounding the Temple. Here Japanese lanterns were hung, and refreshments were served in that inviting spot while the dancing was in progress.<br />

=== EVENTS ===<br />
<br />
==== INSTITUTION OF LODGE, DECEMBER 1992 ====<br />
<br />
''From '''TROWEL''', Summer 1993, Page 25:''<br />
<br />
On December 5. 1992, R.W. William J. Rogers, D. D. G. M., [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAHyannis32_1927-2003 Hyannis 32d District], opened a District Deputy Grand Master" s Lodge for the purpose of instituting Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge. This is the fifth Daylight Lodge to be organized under the jurisdiction of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
The first order of business was the reading of the dispensation of the Grand Master followed by the reception of the appointed officers of Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge. Immediately following was the reception of M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDarling Edgar W. Darling], then Grand Master. M. W. Bro. Darling was received by R.W. Bro. Rogers and escorted to the East where he gave a few brief remarks. R. W. Bro. Rogers installed the officers. He was assisted by Wor. John Trottier, D. D. G. Marshal; Wor. Donald G. Frommeyer, D. D. G. Secretary; R. W. Robert Pann, D. D .G. Chaplain; and Wor. Myron C. Bigelow, Organist.<br />

<br />
The members of Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge are planning to break ground this spring to build a new Temple. The Lodge has already performed Degree work and has received six new applications for the Degrees.<br />
<br />
==== HALL DEDICATION, NOVEMBER 1995 ====<br />
<br />
''From '''TROWEL''', Spring 1996, Page 16:''<br />
<br />
http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/images/BourneHall1996.jpg<br />
<br />
No truer words have been spoken than on the afternoon of July 16, 1994, when in the Lodge it was said "Behold the Temple is nearly completed." The Lodge room was complete with Officers' stations, lights and fans, carpeted floor, seats for members, and air conditioning installed and working.<br />
<br />
The first Candidates to be Raised in this new Lodge were Bro. Howard Charles Hanscom and Bro. Robert Warren O'Neil. Jr. R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLPSmith Peter R. Smith], D. D. G. M. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAHyannis32_1927-2003 Hyannis 32nd District] and R. W. Kendall G. Jones, Presiding Master Raised the two new Brothers.<br />
<br />
On November 18, 1995, M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLovering David W. Lovering], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, officiated at the formal dedication of Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge. He was assisted in the impressive and emotional ceremony by R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRHartley Robert H. Hartley], Deputy Grand Master; R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAJohnson Arthur E. Johnson], Senior Grand Warden; R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWManchester William Manchester], Acting Junior Grand Warden: M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRichardson David B. Richardson] as Grand Secretary; R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCGordon Carl Gordon], Acting Grand Treasurer; Wor. David Catten, Acting Grand Marshal; R. W. Rev. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJHiggins John R. Higgins], Grand Chaplain; Wor. Edgar L. Kleindinst, III, Senior Grand Deacon; Wor. Thomas M. Connors, Grand Steward; and Bro. Norman Nichols, Organist.<br />
<br />
R. W. Kendall G. Jones was the Architect of the building and assisted in the ceremony of examining the building before dedication.<br />
R.W. Bro. Jones was the first Master of Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge when it was Instituted on December 5, 1992. He was also the first President of the Weary Travelers Club when the members decided to build a Masonic Lodge to meet as a daylight Lodge.<br />
<br />
The Weary Travelers Club was created in [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=DeWittClinton DeWitt Clinton] Lodge on April 2, 1968. The purpose was to promote Freemasonry and to date they have given over $200,000.00 to local charities, the Masonic Home, and the Shrine Hospitals.<br />
<br />
The first officers of Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge, U. D., were: R. W. Kendall G. Jones, Master; Wor. Stanley M. Robinson. Senior Warden; Wor. Richard F. Grant, Junior Warden: Wor. Robert F. Jones, Treasurer; Wor. William K. Turner, Secretary; Wor. Allan J. Malesco, Chaplain; Wor. Calvin R. Lessard, Marshal; Wor. Peter K. Stone, Senior Deacon; Wor. Hiram G. Jones, Junior Deacon; Bro. William H. Haskell, Senior Steward; Bro. Richard E. McKenna, Junior Steward; Bro. N. H. Block, Inside Sentinel; Bro. George J. Hood, Tyler; and Wor. Myron C. Bigelow. Organist.<br />
<br />
This new Lodge on Valley Bars Road in the village of Monument Beach. Bourne. MA. is truly laudable. "The building is a physical expression of our deepest beliefs, that is to say - Brotherly Love, Friendship and Charity." While true the above expression does not adequately describe the effort made by so many from conception to completion. The hard work and determination by the members tugs at the heart to attempt to explain what took place.<br />
<br />
One hundred eighty five Master Masons gave $300.00 each to start the | building fund. R.W. Kendall G. Jones, Master Builder, took out permits and acted as architect and superintendent the work. The necessary letters and important paperwork were completer to have the Lodge chartered. Brethren came together in force to assist in erecting the Lodge building.<br />
<br />
Following the dedication ceremony in the Lodge, a reception was held at the Weary Travelers Club which included a sumptuous menu, with music and dancing.<br />
<br />
The good Lord willing, Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge will exist for many years for the good o all mankind.<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, MAY 1967 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1967-210:''<br />
<br />
''By Bro. Robert S. Andrews.''<br />
<br />
On March 27, 1867, an informal meeting was held at Free Masons Hall, 10 Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts, attended by Free Masons of which there were twenty-one. The meeting was called to order by Wor. Brother [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJDadmun John W. Dadmun] at 4:30 P.M. Wor. Bro. William H. Sampson was chosen chairman, Bro. Thomas Waterman, Jr., Secretary. After much discussion the name of the proposed new Lodge was unanimously adopted (Zetland).<br />
<br />
The Eminent Brother, in whose honor the Lodge was named, Thomas Dundas, second Earl of Zetland, eldest child of Lawrence Dundas, first Earl of Zetland, was born February 5, 1795, elected Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons of England in 1843 and served until 1870.<br />
<br />
That same year he was elected Honorary Member of the Lodge of Scotland. This honor had previously been conferred by the Lodge of Edinburgh and an Honorary Member of the Grand only upon Sovereigns.<br />
<br />
Wor. Bro. John W. Dadmun was chosen Master, Wor. Bro. Alfred F. Chapman, Senior Warden, and Bro. John F. Abbot, Junior Warden. The Chair appointed the first three officers-elect as a committee to present the petition to the Most Worshipful Grand Master, District Deputy Grand Master, and the Lodges necessary to consider the claims of the petitioners. On April 16, 1867, the committee reported that as the petitioners had been recommended as Master Masons in good standing by the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Brethren of St. John's, Revere, Columbian, Aberdour, St. Andrew's, and Winslow Lewis Lodges holden in the City of Boston, and their petition having been countersigned and approved by the District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston1_1867-1882 First Masonic District], the Most Worshipful Grand Master, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame], granted a dispensation authorizing and empowering said petitioners to form a Lodge after the manner of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, and therein to admit and make Free Masons according to ancient custom and not otherwise.<br />
<br />
This dispensation was duly signed under the seal of the Grand Lodge by Most Worshipful Charles C. Dame, Grand Master, and Right Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMSCWMoore Charles W. Moore], Grand Secretary. The Petitioners for the dispensation were Brothers John W. Dadmun, William H. Sampson, George R. Rogers, J. N. M. Clough, A. R. Coolidge, W. S. Bonney, W. F. Robinson, Stephen D. Hilborn, Charles H. Almy, George S. Noyes, E. W. Hastings, A. F. Chapman, Joseph Mclntire, Weston Lewis, H. W. Vinal, Asa M. Caton, George S. Bryant, John F. Abbott, T. M. Jackson, Arthur Chenay, William Pratt, Jr., C. E. Bosworth, M. M. Fuller, Peter Ripley, P. E. Dolliver, John H. Chester, Theodore B. Hapgood, N. Hamilton, Robert H. Carlton, Timothy W. Ray, Samuel Ford, Thomas Waterman, Jr., and Edward H. Barton.<br />
<br />
The Worshipful Master, John W. Dadmun, assuming the East, appointed the following officers for the ensuing year: Wallace E. Robinson, Treasurer; George R. Rogers, Secretary; J. N. M. Clough, Senior Deacon, Thomas Waterman, Jr., Junior Deacon; Robert Carlton, Senior Steward; C. E. Bosworth, Junior Steward; George S. Noyes, Chaplain; George H. Pike, Tyler; N. Hamilton, Marshal, A. R. Coolidge, Inside Sentinel; S. Ford, Chorister, and T. B. Hapgood, Organist. Committees were at once appointed to procure regalia and to frame the By-Laws. Applications for the Degrees were secured and investigating committees appointed. Thus Zetland Lodge started.<br />
<br />
A year later, the period of probation expired; in the interim Zetland Lodge had a goodly number of applicants for the Degrees, and the Lodge was solvent with ownership of property plus cash of more than twelve hundred dollars, an excellent record and one calculated to produce enviable results in future years.<br />
<br />
Appended to a special edition of the By-Laws of Zetland Lodge in 1890, Instituted April 15, A.L. 5867, may be found an extract from an address by Wor. Bro. A. F. Chapman delivered March 31, 1868, delving into great detail on the life and times of the Earl of Zetland, Most Worshipful Grand Master of England, who, four years later, died at Aske Hall near Richmond on May 6, 1873, at the age of 78. This sad event was received with profound regret by the members of Zetland Lodge. Resolutions were passed and forwarded to the Grand Master of England. The Jewels of the Lodge were draped in mourning for ninety days and all possible tribute paid to the memory of this Distinguished Mason.<br />
March 31, 1868, at the Masonic Temple, Boston, Massachusetts, the ceremony of constituting the Lodge took place at 7:30 P.M. in Egyptian Hall, with Most Worshipful Grand Master Charles C. Dame presiding, assisted by the Officers of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts. After the ceremony the Brethren repaired to Corinthian Hall and the following Officers were duly installed:<br />
* Wor. John W. Dadmun, Master<br />
* Wor. Alfred F. Chapman, Senior Warden<br />
* Wor. John F. Abbot, Junior Warden<br />
* Bro. Wallace F. Robinson, Treasurer<br />
* Bro. George R. Rogers, Secretary<br />
* Bro. J. N. M. Clough, Senior Deacon<br />
* Bro. Thomas Waterman, Jr., Junior Deacon<br />
* Bro. Robert H. Carlton, Senior Steward<br />
* Bro. Charles E. Bosworth, Junior Steward<br />
* Bro. Nathaniel Hamilton, Marshal<br />
* Bro. George S. Noyes, Chorister<br />
* Bro. Aaron R. Coolidge, Inside Sentinel<br />
* Bro. George H. Pike, Tyler<br />
Approximately one hundred and eighty Brethren and their ladies witnessed this historic event. A suitable Feast was served in the Banquet Hall in honor of this occasion, after which the Worshipful Master introduced the speaker of the evening, the Most Worshipful Grand Master, the Grand Lodge Officers and other invited guests.<br />
<br />
The engrossing and printing of the name of the Lodge, dates and names of the Charter Members is the work of our Charter Member, Wor. Bro. George R. Rogers. There were thirty-three brethren whose names appear as Charter Members, who were raised in various Lodges in and around Boston, but more particularly in Mount Lebanon Lodge, which could be considered our Mother Lodge. Individual Charter Members presented as gifts the original jewels and regalia of the Lodge, the donor's name being inscribed on the reverse side of each jewel.<br />
<br />
December 20, 1870, Zetland Lodge changed the day of its regular communications from the third Tuesday of each month to the second Wednesday.<br />
<br />
June 12, 1872, it was voted to send the right Honorable Earl of Zetland a communication reflecting the prosperous condition of the Lodge, and to express the Officers' and Brethren's appreciation of his kindly interest in the Lodge, and that we here in the States would always hold him in high regard, respect and admiration. The mission undertaken and brought to a successful conclusion on October 9, 1872.<br />
<br />
March 16, 1883, with fitting ceremonies, the Fifteenth Anniversary with Wor. Winfield L. Tucker presiding was celebrated. There were assembled 250 friends and brethren in Corinthian Hall. Wor. Alfred F. Chapman delivered a most interesting historical address, a copy of which is appended to the By-Laws published in 1890. In addition there was entertainment by Bro. Thomas M. Carter's orchestra, followed by a most elaborate collation, the tables being ornamented with beautiful floral arrangements given by Wor. Bro. Alfred F. Chapman. The Lodge was honored by the presence of the Most Worshipful Grand Master, Samuel C. Lawrence, accompanied by other distinguished Grand Lodge Officers, including Most Worshipful Stephen R. Sircom, Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia, Rt. Wor. Deputy Grand Master, Edwin Wright, and the Masters of the Temple Lodges, accompanied by their ladies. Membership in the Lodge had shown a substantial increase.<br />
<br />
April 13, 1892, our Twenty-fifth Anniversary was celebrated. Wor. Frank W. Wise was our presiding Master. This affair was restricted to Master Masons. We were again honored by the presence of the Most Worshipful Grand Master, Samuel Wells, and his very Distinguished Suite. There were seven Charter Members present. Zetland Lodge moved forward, continuing its good record and good work.<br />
<br />
September 9, 1895, the Masonic Temple at Boston was damaged by fire, and meetings were held at 18 Boylston Street, Boston, the first being on February 12, 1896; and continued at that location until September, 1899, until the return to our quarters at 51 Boylston Street, the Temple having been completed; Wor. Arthur P. French being the first presiding Master on our return to the Temple.<br />
<br />
The 545th Special Communication, held May 16, 1917, Worshipful William C. Crane presiding, Zetland Lodge celebrated its 50th Anniversary. Public ceremonies were held in Corinthian Hall for guests and ladies. Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLAbbott Leon M. Abbott] was the presiding Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts. There were the usual amenities and a banquet. A studious and interesting history of Zetland Lodge was read by Rt. Wor. Edmund S. Young, District Deputy Grand Master. The "Boston Philharmonic Trio", assisted by Wilma Dearborn Carter, entertained in Corinthian Hall. Bro. Thomas M. Carter's band furnished music for dancing in Gothic Hall. The festivities ceased at 12:00 P.M.<br />
<br />
March 12, 1917, Brother Frost presented the Lodge with a silk Service flag. December 12, 1917, Zetland Lodge voted to exempt from dues Brethren of the Lodge while in the Military Service, this to be for the period of the war. Also that same evening, $132.00 was voted to the Masonic War Fund.<br />
<br />
November, 1919, the war was over, and there were 296 members this year; twenty applicants sought to join our ranks, but only nine of these were admitted to be raised to the Sublime Degree. During the year there were fifteen suspensions for non-payment of dues. The year ended with a net gain in membership of two. This was a year of caution for Grand Lodge requested the Masters to exercise great care in screening all who sought to gain admission.<br />
<br />
February 11, 1920, the name of Daniel P. Harding appeared on an application for the Degrees in Zetland Lodge; later he was raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason by Wor. Edward T. Easton; none then knew the significance of this event, how important and beneficial this event was to prove, nor how great the blessing to our Lodge.<br />
<br />
Brother Melville Madison Bigelow departed this life on May 5, 1921. He was a most distinguished Mason and citizen, former Dean of the Boston University Law School. For nearly half a century he served that institution and was internationally well known as a legal authority. In November a contingent of fifty visitors from the Chamber of Commerce came to honor Wor. William M. Wise, and they presented him with a traveling bag and a basket of flowers.<br />
<br />
The Lodge suffered a real loss on May 9, 1923, when Bro. Fred Davies, our dedicated Secretary, departed this life. Fortunately the pen was picked up by Bro. Charles E. Munroe, who for many years to come filled the office in a most able manner.<br />
<br />
December 10, 1924, the Most Worshipful Dudley H. Ferrell, Grand Master, bestowed the Henry Price Medal on the then senior member, Bro. George R. Fogg. Fortunate indeed were the Brethren of Zetland Lodge, for among the members was Bro. Thomas M. Carter, beloved by all, a great musician and composer of Boston Commandery march. Often his talent and his famous band were enjoyed by the Brethren, as for example, at the 60th and 61st convocations, when he conducted concerts which were attended by great numbers, and brought much pleasure to all.<br />
<br />
February 10, 1926, Bro. Carter was the recipient of the Henry Price Medal, which was presented to him by the Most Wor. Grand Master, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMSimpson Frank L. Simpson], at which time Bro. Carter had been a Mason for nearly 62 years.<br />
<br />
In these years, the initiation fee was $60.00, Grand Lodge Rent $800.00, Secretary's salary $100.00, Tyler $88.28, Organist $70.00, Cigars $49.00, and notices for Funerals $20.85. There was in the Permanent Fund $11,293.92, mostly held in Savings Banks, but $3,000.00 was in Liberty Bonds, and $995.42 in Atlantic City Electric Bonds.<br />
Zetland Lodge soon began to prepare for its 75th Anniversary, which was to occur in 1942. The first appropriation of money of $100.00 was made at the annual meeting in 1927, and a proposal was made to change the time of the annual meeting from December to September, by amending the By-Laws. The proposal failed, but in 1966 was adopted.<br />
<br />
The years from 1918 to 1926 were prosperous and happy, especially for Grand Lodge, which reported a 50% increase in membership in the Blue Lodges. In retrospect, what appears to have happened, is a migration to the rural areas, where there were new Lodges, but, in the urban areas the older Lodges were holding on, notwithstanding substantial losses in membership through suspensions, attributed to non-payment of dues, antiquity of its members, and the changing environment of the city dweller. However, in 1927 our membership stood at 300, and we had a net gain of 4 from the preceding year.<br />
<br />
November 14, 1928, Zetland Lodge passed its peak year in membership. By August, 1928, the membership dropped from 305 to 291 members, but the Lodge continued strong, and practiced Masonry actively. On the evening of November 14, 1928, there were present 132 members and guests assembled in the banquet hall to honor our esteemed Brother and distinguished guest, Right Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMACoolidge Arthur William Coolidge], District Deputy Grand Master for the Boston 2nd Masonic District. His Suite numbered 50 masons of great distinction, including the oldest, Brothers Fogg and Carter. A check for $100.00 was presented in aid of Juniper Hall on behalf of Zetland Lodge. The District Deputy Grand Master, Marshal and Secretary were presented with Bags of Gold by Wor. Master Richard Ray, Jr. Our good wishes and fraternal spirit were sent to Zetland Lodge of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was greatly helped in these years by our faithful Treasurer, Albert B. Merrill, and by our loyal Secretary, Charles E. Munroe. The records in retrospect disclose that we lost some initial momentum, as attendance was 35 to 40 at each communication. We lost quite heavily in membership through deaths, demits, and suspensions, and non-payment of dues. Fellowship continued, and regular dinners were held with each communication; all of which reflect in a large measure the great effort of Bro. Daniel P. Harding, who, on January 8, 1930 was our Senior Warden and in recognition of his planning outstanding dinners, was appointed Commissar. April 9, 1930, Wor. Frank W. Wise, age 80, received the 50-year Medal, and was proposed for Honorary Membership. On May 14, 1930, he received his certificate of Honorary Membership.<br />
<br />
The era of the great depression was here, but we had an excellent line of Officers to cope with it. They were: James P. Davies, Worshipful Master; Daniel P. Harding, Senior Warden; Evan G. Goodale, Junior Warden; Albert B. Merrill, Treasurer; Charles E. Munroe, Secretary; Hazen G. Keith, Senior Deacon; Bernard H. Marshall, Junior Deacon. As of August 31, 1930, assets totaled $12,466.51.<br />
<br />
December 9, 1931, our spiritual cares were placed in the hands of our Chaplain, Rev. Bro. Whitelock, who exerted a most beneficial influence, exemplified as in a eulogy to Wor. Bro. George Washington:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Our older Brothers continue to pass on to the land beyond the grave. There is no death — the thing that we call death is just another sadder name for life, which is itself, an insufficient name, faint recognition of that unknown life, that power whose shadow is the Universe." <br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
June 14, 1933. Joint Meeting with [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MosesMichaelHays Moses Michael Hays] Lodge. Officers of both Lodges raised candidates. Officers were concerned about the poor attendance at dinners and in the Lodge. Grand Lodge in that year granted one-half million dollars in relief.<br />
<br />
On January 18, 1934, Bro. Thomas M. Carter, age 92, and the oldest Band Master in the United States, died, and scores of the Brethren attended his burial at Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge.<br />
<br />
September 12, 1934, Zetland Lodge established a Charity Fund. Grand Lodge suspended for non-payment of dues 1,015 members of the fraternity. Ironically, at the same time, the fraternity was making equal effort in its solicitation for the Masonic Museum on the Second Floor of the Temple.<br />
<br />
May 24, 1935, Wor. Evan T. Goodale replaced Bro. Charles E. Munroe as Secretary.<br />
<br />
January 8, 1936, Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding, assisted by Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMOsgood A. Neill Osgood], installed Wor. Bro. Hazen G. Keith as Master of Zetland Lodge. Our attendance was poor. Sometimes it was as low as 16-20 at a communication, but the cash assets were rising, the economic climate was poor, the ritual good. There was more entertainment, and the Lodges were helping one another. The Lodge of Instruction was gaining in favor. Rt. Wor. Arthur William Coolidge and Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding were elected to Honorary Membership. Approximately 150 years had elapsed since Washington was Master of his Lodge in Virginia. It was in 1779 that he held that honor, and he was, at the same time, inaugurated in office as the first President of our Country.<br />
<br />
January 20, 1940, Masonic Services were held at Forest Hills Cemetery to mourn the loss of Rt. Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEYoung Edmund Sanford Young], Master of Zetland Lodge 1910-1911, Senior Steward 1912, District Deputy Grand Master, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston2_1911-1926 Boston 2nd Masonic District] 1914-1915, Junior Grand Warden 1918, Secretary Board of Masonic Relief 1914-1940, Honorary Member of Zetland Lodge, holder of the Henry Price Medal, Historian, Lecturer, Chaplain, Installing Officer; in every essence, the spirit and back bone of Zetland Lodge.<br />
<br />
Seven days later, Wor. Frank W. Wise, Master 1892-1893, and Honorary member died.<br />
<br />
April 10, 1940, Wor. Joseph B. Compton announced that Dr. Currier's widow had presented Zetland Lodge the Jewel that her husband had worn, which was presented to him in honor of his long service as Marshal.<br />
<br />
April 9, 1941, Rt. Wor. Arthur Coolidge with many distinguished Masons and Members of Grand Lodge present received from the Grand Master the Henry Price Medal. Records disclose a contribution to the Masonic Service Department of the Military Service and purchases of Defense Bonds.<br />
<br />
April 8, 1942, was the ,795th regular communication of Zetland Lodge and the 75th Anniversary year. Officers were: Wor. Harold W. Martin, Master; Wallace E. Crowley, Senior Warden; Bernard H. Marshall, Junior Warden; Evan G. Goodale, Secretary; Rev. Herbert A. Whitelock, Chaplain; Daniel P. Harding, Acting Marshal; Arthur W. Anderson, Acting Junior Steward; Samuel N. Cohen, Tyler; Bertram F. Whipple, Organist. Program: Salute to the Colors; Sing National Anthem; share a Birthday Cake; mourn departed Brethren; Wor. Evan G. Goodale delivered a History of Zetland Lodge and Past Masters gave a 5 minute resume of their years in office.<br />
<br />
May 2, 1942, there was further celebration at the Sheraton Hotel, 19 Bay State Road, with approximately 150 in attendance, including guests from the Grand Lodge, and the Presiding Masters of the Boston 2nd and Cambridge 2nd Masonic Districts. Right Wor. Arthur W. Coolidge gave a History of Zetland Lodge and there were remarks from Most Worshipful Grand Master, Albert A. Schaefer. The vocalist was Bro. Franklin Field, with music and dancing until 12 o'clock. Arrangements for this gala affair were made under the direction of Brothers Marshall and Crowley. A balance of $600 left from the 75th Anniversary fund was turned over to the Treasurer with instructions that upon written request from the Master, it be available to celebrate the 85th Anniversary.<br />
<br />
On June 10, 1942, Wor. William R. Gibbs, made a bequest of $1,000 under his will to Zetland Lodge, and the income to be used for charity.<br />
<br />
December 8, 1943, Arthur W. Coolidge was elected Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons.<br />
<br />
September 1, 1944. Wartime. The Secretary sent Christmas Cards to servicemen. Entertainment reflects the war tempo.<br />
<br />
Beginning December 13, 1944, under the leadership of Wor. Bernard H. Marshall, with Arthur W. Anderson as Senior Warden, and Rt. Wor. James McAfee, as Junior Warden, the Lodge experienced substantial growth in assets, and a large influx of applicants for the Degrees. We were very fortunate to have such able leadership.<br />
<br />
February 14, 1945, notice was received that under the will of Bro. John T. Sides provision was made for a free bed at the Massachusetts Memorial Hospital.<br />
<br />
On June 13, 1945, we had an outstanding night in Zetland Lodge. At this communication all but two of the living Past Masters were present. Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding was presented an engrossed and framed resolution, passed by the Lodge, plus a Life Membership in the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine from his business associates. The Grand Master presented the Joseph Warren Medal to our dedicated Brother, in token of his special services to the Craft. It was the 25th Anniversary of Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding's Masonic Membership.<br />
<br />
Wor. Arthur W. Anderson guided our destiny, an excellent ritualist, having a quality which he successfully transmitted to his fellow officers. He directed considerable effort toward greater fraternization with other Lodges, as exemplified by exchange of courtesies with [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Wampatuck Wampatuck] Lodge, and with [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=EbenezerFuller Ebenezer Fuller] Lodge. He made special efforts to stimulate greater Brotherly concern within, the Lodge, and showed much compassion. There was an excellent spirit in the Lodge, and it showed growth in membership and assets.<br />
<br />
On December 11, 1946, Howard L. MacOdrum, made application for membership into Zetland Lodge, sponsored by Bernard H. Marshall, and was raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason, in March, 1947, Checker Taxi Associates taking part in the work of the evening.<br />
<br />
On August 31, 1948, the assets of Zetland Lodge were $19,863.53, and membership totaled 179.<br />
<br />
March 8, 1950, Bro. Samuel N. Cohen, our faithful and loyal Tyler of 37 years, departed this life. At a Memorial Service, held on April 12, 1950, Rev. Bro. Whitelock memorializes: "We'll miss you Sam, you may be sure But you will wait on yonder shore. And there beyond the pearly gates, Will greet us as so oft before. You did on earth, at Zetland's door."<br />
<br />
June 14, 1950, with 188 members and guests present, we honored Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding, who, in 30 years had not missed a regular Zetland Lodge Communication. Eloquently Most Worshipful and Honorable, Arthur W. Coolidge, Past Grand Master, spoke of the record and service which Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding has given to Masonry. He was presented a Masonic ring from his friends in the market district. This affair was arranged by Bro. Thomas H. Tagen.<br />
<br />
January 22, 1952, Most Wor. Arthur W. Coolidge, former Lt. Governor of Massachusetts, departed in Reading, Mass. He was born in Woodfords, Maine, on October 13, 1881. He entered September 11, 1907, passed October 9, 1907, raised November 13, 1907, Secretary, 1909-1917, Master, 1925-1926, District Deputy Grand Master, Boston 2nd Masonic District, 1927-1928, Deputy Grand Master, 1941, Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Masons, 1944.<br />
<br />
In 1952, Masonry celebrated the 200th Anniversary of the making of a Mason of Wor. George Washington, whom history records as: "First in peace, First in war, First in the hearts of his countrymen." Zetland Lodge had a new Master, Wor. James A. Miller, Bro. Frank L. Kundert, Senior Warden. As guests on Wednesday, October 8, 1952, were the Aleppo Temple Third Degree Team, to assist in the raising of Bro. Russell A. Yates, but more particularly to give honor to Wor. Daniel P. Harding, who served as Master on the team, and was assisted by Wor. John J. Mick.<br />
At the November communication, the Brethren voted unanimously to instruct the Master to vote "NO", at the December Grand Lodge Meeting, on the question of dropping the penalties in our Ritual.<br />
<br />
In December, the 85th Anniversary was officially celebrated. The membership totaled 171, with financial affairs in good order. There were approximately 200 Brethren and guests assembled in Ionic Hall to participate on this memorable date.<br />
<br />
The records disclose much evidence that the Masters of Zetland Lodge have been ever mindful of their responsibility to our Brethren throughout the world, and to society in general, as evidenced by the impassioned plea of Wor. Frank Kundert in February, 1953, who made great effort to gain support from the Brethren for the "Blood Bank Program", stating . . . "We have many promises, but Blood, and not promises is needed to save our lives".<br />
<br />
June 11, 1953, Honorary Membership was conferred on Wor. Bernard H. Marshall.<br />
<br />
Zetland celebrated Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding's 35 years of unbroken attendance, with a never to be forgotten "Shrine Night", on June 8, 1955. Herman Charles McStay, Illustrious Potentate of Aleppo Temple, Rt. Wor. A. Neill Osgood, Deputy Grand Master, members of the Potentate's Divan, and the Shrine Third Degree Team, and the Chanters, were all present to help the Brothers of Zetland Lodge honor their most distinguished Brother.<br />
<br />
August 31, 1955, the Membership was 179, Lodge assets $23,300.90 with a 4.25% yield, all of which, the Auditor, Bro. Thomas N. Tagen, confirmed. After 20 years of faithful service, our Secretary, Wor. Evan G. Goodale, relinquished the pen to Wor. James R. Miller.<br />
<br />
On April 1, 1956, Wor. Evan G. Goodale departed this life at Brattleboro, Vermont. For thirty-five years he served his Lodge.<br />
<br />
In May, 1956, Bro. Henry W. Davis presented Wor. Evan G. Goodale's Jewel and Apron to the Lodge with the hope expressed that this Jewel might be used by future presiding Masters of Zetland Lodge during respective terms in office.<br />
<br />
In 1956, with Wor. Howard L. MacOdrum as Master, there were eleven deaths, and one suspension, but ended the year without any loss in membership.<br />
<br />
On August 16, 1957, at Halifax, Nova Scotia, Wor. Bernard H. Marshall departed this life to receive the reward he so justly deserved in the Celestial Lodge above. His influence and guiding hand had long been one of Zetland's strongest pillars.<br />
<br />
It is with great satisfaction that Wor. David M. Johnston noted as his term of office drew to a close that our membership showed an increase of 4, making a total of 183. He turned the Hiram over to Wor. Bro. John A. Mathon, Master-Elect in 1958.<br />
<br />
On March 11, 1959, the Police Degree Team raised Bro. Marshall Clifford MacLeod in long form. An outstanding ritualistic piece of work was done, and they were the recipients of most hearty congratulations from the Brethren. In September 1959, Edward Nixon Weir Smith made application to the Lodge. He was raised to the Sublime Degree March 9, 1960. The following month he began his Masonic career as Inside Sentinel of Zetland Lodge.<br />
<br />
In January, 1959, Wor. Arthur W. Anderson, after a lapse of 12 years, again agreed to serve in the Oriental Chair. The following year Wor. Howard L. MacOdrum was appointed Rt. Wor. District Deputy Grand Master, Boston 2nd Masonic District.<br />
<br />
February 10, 1960, Rt. Wor. Howard L. MacOdrum paid Zetland Lodge a Fraternal Visit. He was accompanied by his District Deputy Grand Marshal, Wor. Eugene C. Blanchard, his District Deputy Grand Secretary, Wor. George Starr Palmer, and accompanied by a large and distinguished Suite. On this occasion, the Rt. Wor. Bro. MacOdrum delivered an excellent History of the Origin of Zetland Lodge.<br />
<br />
The 40th Anniversary of the making of a Mason of Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding was celebrated with fitting ceremonies on June 8, 1960. It was a gala event with songs by the Aleppo Chanters. The Wor. and Illustrious Potentate, Francis R. Sagle, of Aleppo Temple was present. Wor. Stanley F. Maxwell was escorted to the Oriental Chair, and the Aleppo Temple Third Degree Team raised Bro. John Rankin O'Brien to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason. Taking part in the ceremonies were Rt. Wor. Carl R. MacKenney, and Rev. Bro. Harry P. Folger, II, who gave a charge and an address on the "Privilege of being a Mason."<br />
<br />
May 12, 1961, Honorary Membership was voted to Wor. Arthur W. Anderson, who has been exemplar worthy of imitation for nearly two decades. A new Secretary was elected, Wor. Bro. Fred Holland Chamberlin, Past Master of The Harvard Lodge, who affiliated with Zetland Lodge.<br />
<br />
November 8, 1961, Rt. Wor. Howard L. MacOdrum made his final Official Visitation to Zetland Lodge, at which time he was presented a miniature gavel by R.W. A. Neill Osgood, on behalf of the Boston 2nd Masonic District, as well as a Past District Deputy Grand Master's Apron, by Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRBeach Robert P. Beach, Jr.], Past Master of The Harvard Lodge, and Chairman of the Boston 2nd Masonic District for this occasion honoring the District Deputy Grand Master, who is also the representative of the Most Wor. Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts to the Grand Lodge of India.<br />
<br />
Changes in our By-Laws were passed by a vote of 22-18 on February 12, 1964, including a proposal to change our annual communication date from December to September.<br />
<br />
March 11,1964, Wor. William J. Whitley invited as our guests the Aleppo Temple Officers of the Third Degree Team, who arrived accompanied by members of the Shrine Band and Chanters. Bro. Everett Herbert Seiffert was raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason. The work of the evening was performed in memorable style, and we had a good turnout of Brethren.<br />
<br />
During the Summer of 1964, our Brethren were deeply saddened to receive the report and perform a Masonic Funeral Service on the passing to the Celestial Lodge above of our much admired, respected and beloved Bro. Arthur Howey Ross of Hockey fame.<br />
<br />
On January 13, 1965, Senior Warden Murphy arranged a Robert Burns Night. At dinner there were toasts to Robert Burns, salutes by the Bagpipers, Scottish songs by members of the Kilwinning Club Degree Team. Among the most interesting events at dinner was the Haggis, and the salute there-to. Later, the District Deputy Grand Master of the Boston 2nd Masonic District, Rt. Wor. Eugene C. Blanchard, was escorted by the Pipers and the Flag Bearers of the Kilwinning Degree Team. Wor. Robert Burniston spoke to the assembly of the life and times of Robert Burns, and read some of his poetry. In conclusion, the Degree Team assembled around the Altar for prayer and singing Auld Lang Syne in their traditional manner.<br />
<br />
The dependable, and those believed durable forever, leave us all too soon; so it was with our Treasurer, Wor. George Starr Palmer, who departed this life, February 15, 1965. A real hard loss to replace from our rolls. Dame fortune smiled on Zetland Lodge, and the impossible replacement was found. Wor. Bro. V. George Badoian took on the arduous time consuming duties of Treasurer.<br />
<br />
Before the close of 1965, two significant and important events occurred. First again we honor Rt. Wor. Daniel P. Harding on his 45th Anniversary under the direction of Rt. Wor. Howard L. MacOdrum, on June 9, 1965. Zetland Lodge was honored to have as guests Most Wor. A. Neill Osgood, Grand Master of Masons in Masachusetts, as well as the Most Worshipful Grand Master of Japan.<br />
<br />
With Wor. John Murphy in the East, on October 13, 1965, the Lodge enjoyed a visit from the Springfield Pipers Band. The Officers of Zetland Lodge wearing kilts conferred the Third Degree on Bro. Roderick William MacDonald, the request of St. Munn Lodge, #496 of Ardnadum, Scotland.<br />
<br />
We are now at the gate of our 100th year. Our Master is Wor. Edward N. W. Smith. Lodge assets total in excess of $35,000.00 and membership approximately 159. We acknowledge with grateful thanks, gifts and bequests from the following Brethren:<br />
* Bro. John F. Abbott $500.00 (1893)<br />
* Bro. Alfred Perkins 100.00 (1913)<br />
* Bro. Dwight Reynolds 500.00 (1934)<br />
* Bro. Edward Rugg 100.00 (1939)<br />
* Bro. Silas Peavy 250.00 (1942)<br />
* Wor. William P. Gibbs 1,000.00 (1943)<br />
* Bro. James Quigley 500.00 (1945)<br />
* Wor. Evan G. Goodale (for Grace Carter Memorial Fund) 1,000.00 (1945-1946)<br />
* Wor. Richard Ray, Jr. 200.00 (1946)<br />
* Bro. Orin F. Gallagher 6,000.00 (1957)<br />
* Estate of Wor. Bernard Marshall 250.00 (1963)<br />
* Bro. Samuel N. Cohen 500.00 (1965)<br />
''Total:'' $10,900.00<br />
<br />
Bro. Orin F. Gallagher is remembered not only for his substantial beneficence, but for his constant concern and interest for the support of those things which were ever for the best interest of Zetland Lodge during his Masonic Years.<br />
<br />
With Wor. Edward N. W. Smith in the East, we experience a new stability: a genuine effort to direct the Lodge's efforts toward productive channels on a course that has indications of being beneficial to Zetland Lodge. Attendance at our communications is on the increase, and there are indications of a rise in candidate interest. Officers are-giving their ritual more attention. We are under good leadership, building a solid foundation for our next century.<br />
<br />
The history of Zetland Lodge is a story of which the Brethren may indeed be justly proud. Its achievements have been many and praiseworthy. Its trials, tribulations, and failures as they beset the Brethren were only setting the stage for our betterment.<br />
<br />
The environment, the society, the manners of 1867 no longer exist. With each passing year change and progress have been inevitable. The mood, customs, desires of 1967, though they may puzzle us today, will, in due time, take their allotted places and fit nicely together. The picture will grow clearer, whatsoever challenges are to be met. We shall meet them.<br />
<br />
We look to the future with pride, enthusiasm and determination, toward building and bringing increasing glory to our much beloved and honored Zetland Lodge, ever remembering to keep our trust in the Supreme Architect of the Universe, whose strong arm we hope will continue to protect, guide and direct our destiny.<br />
<br />
Compiling this historical account of necessity, the Historian has drawn heavily on the records of our Past Historians, Secretaries, and Treasurers. Inevitably he has failed to record individuals and events of considerable importance; for all such oversights, the indulgence and forgiveness of the Brethren is earnestly solicited.<br />
<br />
May the report give some pleasure in its reading to those of you who have given so much, and may it encourage others to go forth and do likewise.<br />

''Zetland Lodge.'' —This is the name of a new and promising Lodge which was constituted in this city on the 18th of March last. The occasion was made one of more than usual interest and enjoyment. The Lodge having been constituted in the Egyptian Hall of the new Temple, the brethren were formed in procession and proceeded to "Sutton Hall" (Corinthian), where the new appointed officers were installed by M.W. Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Dame], in the presence of a large and brilliant assemblage of ladies. At the conclusion of these ceremonies, a short address was delivered by Br. Chapman, Senior Warden of the Lodge, when the company were afforded an opportunity to view the apartments of the building, all of which were brilliantly lighted. The company next assembled in the large banquet-hall, and sat down to an entertainment served by Br. J. B. Smith, in a style and excellence for which he has been so long celebrated. We believe that in this respect, at least, all were satisfied. At the conclusion of the feast, brief speeches were made by Grand Master Dame, Brs. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Parkman], [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWCoolidge Coolidge], and others.

==== CORRESPONDENCE, 1868-1869 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXIX, No. 3, January 1870, Page 86:''<br />
<br />
The Earl of Zetland, who was for so long a period the Most Worshipful Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of England, was born on the fifth day of February, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and ninety-five. He is descended from an eminently respectable family, to which the historian and genealogist have both assigned an origin of high antiquity and splendor, but which has been still more remarkable for producing a series of men eminently distinguished for their public and private services in the highest civil and masonic offices of Great Britain.<br />
<br />
He was initiated into Freemasonry as the ''Honorable Thomas Dundas'', in the Prince of Wales Lodge, No. 324, on the 18th day of June, 1830, and afterwards successfully served that Lodge as its Worshipful Master.<br />
<br />
On the 25th of April, 1832, he was appointed Senior Grand Warden; on the 24th of the same month, 1839, Deputy Grand Master; and in 1840 was elevated to the office of Pro Grand Master, which office he held at the time of the death of the Duke of Sussex, in April, 1843, from which time till the 6th day of March following, he exercised the functions of Grand Master, when he was elected to that high office, and installed as Most Worshipful Grand Master on the 24th of April, 1844 He has since been annually re-elected to that position, until the present year, when he declined to longer hold the office.<br />
<br />
On his retirement from office, it was proposed to present him some memorial in testimony of the appreciation by the Fraternity, of his long and faithful services, but this he also declined, requesting that the funds be appropriated for the relief of the poor and needy.<br />
<br />
This distinguished brother was exalted into Royal Arch Masonry in the Prince of Wales Chapter, on the 1st of June, 1832, and filled the chair of each of the Principals.<br />
<br />
Pursuant to the regulations of the Supreme Grand Chapter of England, he became Second Grand Principal upon his appointment to the office of Deputy Grand Master.<br />
<br />
As Pro Grand Master, he became First Grand Principal, and as a matter of course, continued to hold that office on being elevated to the office of Grand Master, that high officer being at all times ex-qffieio First Grand Principal.<br />
In honor of this distinguished and memorable brother, the Zetland Lodge of Boston is named, and the following correspondence will show his appreciation of the compliment: —<br />

==== RESOLUTIONS AT THE DEATH OF THE EARL OF ZETLAND, 1873 ====<br />
<br />

''Thomas Dundas, Earl of Zetland''<br />

<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXXII, No. 10, October 1873, Page 311:''<br />
<br />
''Zetland Lodge, September 10, 1873.''<br />
<br />
In the early part of the year 1867 a number of. brethren residing in or near Boston, petitioned for authority to open and hold a new Lodge of Freemasons in said city. Among their anxieties was the selection of a name by which to introduce the proposed new Lodge to the favor and protection of the Craft. Inasmuch, therefore, as Freemasonry is best exemplified by goodness, and cherishes principles "which unite men of every country," it was deliberately and unanimously voted that the name should be "Zetland Lodge," in honor of the Earl of Zetland, distinguished for eminent social and moral qualities among the Peers of England. He had there been Grand Master of the "United Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of England" for a period of twenty-three years; which office he adorned by his simplicity of character, as much us by the zeal and ability with which he discharged its duties.<br />
<br />
Having adopted his name, it was further ordered in the By-Laws that "Our M. W. Brother, Thomas Dundas, Earl of Zetland, Most Worshipful Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of England, is hereby declared to be an Honorary Member of this Lodge, with all the rights and privileges usually appertaining to such membership." This act on the part of the Lodge he recognized with pleasure, and returned a complimentary letter expressing his satisfaction therewith.<br />
<br />
In an appendix to the By-Laws of Zetland Lodge, an extract from an address delivered at the time of its dedication fully and correctly shows the masonic life and history of our noble brother, and also repeals the mutual good will existing between himself and his brethren, as well as the confidence which they for so many years reposed in his administration. To this we may add, that in December, 1869, he declined, by reason of age, to serve longer in the Grand East, though he retained the honors of office until May 14th, 1870, when his successor was installed Grand Master.<br />
<br />
The Earl of Zetland commenced service in the Grand Lodge as Senior Grand Warden April 25th, 1832; was appointed Deputy Grand Master April 24th, 1839, Pro Grand Master September 2nd, 1840, and elected Grand Master March 6th, 1844, and installed April 24th following, the duties of which office he discharged honorably to himself and beneficially to the Craft for twenty-six years; and finally after about three years of release from office, surrounded by friends and cheered by the gratitude and love of his brethren, he died at Aske Hall, near Richmond, May 6th, 1873, aged 78 years, 3 months and 1 day, and was buried at Yorkshire. The news of this sad event was received by the members of Zetland Lodge with feelings of profound regret, and the Jewels of the Lodge were forthwith ordered to be draped in mourning for a period of ninety days, expressive of our sorrow.<br />
<br />
* But, ''Whereas'', "death the grand leveler of all human greatness," has for the first time entered our Lodge, and shows how truly and how well he "loves a shining mark," reducing the moit exalted to the same state with the most lowly,<br />
* And, ''Whereas'', neither honors nor riches, fame nor power, family nor friends, the Craft universal nor the prayers of the Church, can avert the shadows of the tomb,<br />
* Be it therefore ''Resolved,'' That the death of our brother, Thomas Dundas, Earl of Zetland, subdues, chastens and instructs us; presenting for the pressure of our feet something of the way of him whose ways are indeed "past finding out"; while within us arises the hope that infinite grace and mercy may abide with us all the days of our lives, and sanctify this our affliction to the promotion of the gospel of Peace.<br />
* ''Resolved'', That as we looked to the Earl of Zetland, Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of England, for a name for this Lodge, and have pleasure in possessing it; so do we now heartily sympathize with the Craft over whom he presided so long and so well, and mourn with them and the family of the deceased in this our mutual affliction.<br />
* ''Resolved'', That these resolutions, and the foregoing preamble, be spread upon our Records of the Lodge; and a copy sent to the Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of England, and to the family of the deceased.<br />
<br />
Signed and fraternally submitted,<br><br />

At the regular meeting of Zetland Lodge held February 11th, the services of Past Master Edward H. Barton were appropriately recognized, by the gift of a Past Master's gold jewel. Bro. Barton has rendered the Lodge nine years continuous services, commencing low down in the list of officers, and served in each station faithfully. The Jewel was presented by the Junior Warden, on behalf of the Lodge, in a few complimentary remarks, happily responded to. A very pleasant hour was spent in the banquet hall, where speeches and pleasantry were indulged in. We print the list of officers for 1880: Louis G. A. Fauteaux, W. M.; Winfield L. Tucker, S. W.; Alfred F. Chapman, J. W.; Asa H. Caton. Treas.; Hammond Vinton, Sec.; Rev. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJDadmun J. W. Dadmun], Chap.; George R.

''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. V, No. 8, November 1881, Page 254:''<br />
<br />
The meeting of this Lodge was made more than usually interesting on Wednesday evening, November 9th, by reason of the visit of a large number of brethren from [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Montgomery Montgomery] Lodge, of Milford, Mass. Among them were many well-known working Masons, including Geo. E. Stacy, Sullivan C. Sumner, Thomas C. Eastman, Alfred A. Burrell, and others whose names escape us, but whose presence added to the interest of the occasion. The Work was on the Third Degree, and was well spoken of by the visitors. A collation was served in the banquet hall, where an hour was passed in social intercourse.<br />

Zetland Lodge. — The Annual Meeting of this Lodge was held in the Temple in Boston on the evening of December 14th. The Lodge was one of the earliest to pay off its portion of the Grand Lodge Tax, by commutation, and in this it was largely aided by contributions from several of the members. The officers were unanimously elected, and inasmuch as they are all young men, active and intelligent, there is no doubt but good results will attend the administration. Winfield L. Tucker is Master, George D. Burrage, S. W. and Warren B. Wilherell, J. W.<br />

==== 15TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION, MARCH 1883 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. VII, No. 1, April 1883, Page 29:''<br />
<br />
A large audience assembled in the Masonic Temple in Boston on Friday evening, March 16th, under the auspices of Zetland Lodge, in celebration of its fifteenth anniversary under charter. <br />
<br />
The orator of the evening stated that this was the second occasion in the history of the Lodge to which the ladies had been invited, the fust being that of constituting the Lodge, on the 11th day of March, 1868. The ceremonies of this evening were largely of a social character, and this was a pronounced feature throughout. An elaborate order of exercises was prepared and inclosed in a beautifully engraved cover: the title-page presented a fine portrait of the Earl of Zetland, Grand Master of Masons in England from 1844 to 1869, for whom the lodge was named. A printed list of the charter members was included in the order, together with the present organization or list of officers. The several committees were distinguished by different colored badges, representing Executive, Honorary, Reception and Floor; a synoptical programme, called for vocal and instrumental music, by Brother T. M. Carter's Orchestra; Madame M. Baker, pianoforte; Mrs. F. W. Knowles, songs; Mendelssohn Quartette; Miss Alice G. Lathrop, child violinist; Mr. Frank J. Donahoe, and Mr. Warren G. Richards, humorist. The historical address by W. Bro. Alfred F. Chapman was listened to with close attention. In dealing with subjects largely statistical it is difficult for the speaker to keep up the interest of the entire audience; but by including a series of sketches, in caricature, of the several Masters, this difficulty was avoided. <br />
<br />
The Wor. Master, Winfield L. Tucker, welcomed the audience in a felicitous manner, and at the close of the exercises in Sutton Hall he invited the company to an inspection of the various apartments and to a collation served in Gothic Hall, after which a brief order of dances was concluded in the banquet hall. Among the guests were the M. W. Gr. Master, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Samuel C. Lawrence], M. W. Stephen R. Sircom, Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia, the Masters of the several lodges meeting in the Temple and their ladies.<br />

<br />
'''ADDRESS BY WOR. BRO. ALFRED F. CHAPMAN.'''<br />
<br />
The subject which I am invited to discuss, is too prosaic to afford amusement, and too limited in its range to create any special interest beyond it; but the distance between infancy and maturity is considerable, and this is spaced by way-marks remembered with sympathy, with pleasure, peradventure with regret.<br />
<br />
There are but two stages in the existence of a Masonic Lodge, and these may be likened to childhood and manhood. A dispensation from the Grand Master gives it existence, but with limited powers, and after twelve months of trial the Grand Lodge decides whether a Warrant or Charter shall be granted. Under the former, a Lodge can make Masons, but it has no part in the business of Freemasonry outside of its own narrow limits; under the latter it at once becomes the Peer of other Lodges, and may adopt By-Laws, admit members, be heard by voice and vote in the Grand Lodge, through its Master and Wardens or Proxy, and though it may afterward count its years by scores, it is never more a Lodge tnan in the hour in which the charter is received and when the ceremony of constituting is closed.<br />
<br />
The services of this evening are in commemoration of the 15th anniversary of the granting of the Charter to the Lodge, which was done on March nth, 1868, and not to the delivery of the Dispensation, which was granted April 15th, 1867, from which latter date Zetland Lodge properly takes precedence in the Grand Lodge and elsewhere.<br />
<br />
In reviewing the history of the Lodge we shall notice the earliest measures adopted to bring it into being, rather than attempt an entirely formal following of the records.<br />
<br />
The war had fairly closed, and the soldiers of the Union had returned to the pursuits of peace; but the massing of men had not been confined to purposes of sanguinary strife,— desire and decision marshaled the way to the halls of Masonry; these were crowded with candidates eager for degrees, and anxious to secure the Lodge-room's repose; the elements in motion taxed the wisdom and hurried the work of the older Lodges, until sociability gave place to labor, and friendly intercourse to the brevities of official routine.<br />
<br />
Out of all this motion came the movement to organize a new Lodge in Boston; for this purpose, thirty-three brethren, associated themselves together, secured the recommendation of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StJohnB St. John's], [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StAndrew St. Andrew's], [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Columbian Columbian], [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Revere Revere], [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=WinslowLewis Winslow Lewis] and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aberdour Aberdour] Lodges, all meeting at that time in Freemason's Hall, in Thorndike Building, No. 10 Summer Street. This was confirmed by the then D. D. Grand Master, the Dispensation was signed by the M. W. Grand Master, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMDame Charles C. Dame], and duly attested by [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GSCWMoore Charles W. Moore], Grand Secretary.<br />
The petitioners were from several Lodges, but eighteen of them were from [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountLebanon Mt. Lebanon] Lodge, and from this circumstance a closer kinship between the two has been claimed.<br />
<br />
At an informal meeting at No. 10 Summer St., on March 27th, 1867, it was voted to select the name of "Zetland," in honor of the Earl of Zetland, Grand Master of Masons in England, an office which he adorned from 1844 to 1869, inclusive, when he declined a re-election.<br />
<br />
The death of this honest English brother occurred on May 6th, 1873, when he had reached the ripe age of 78 years, 3 months and 1 day; and it is pleasant to reflect that the honors awarded to him in life were more highly gilded by the love of those who knew him best.<br />
<br />
We should like to say a word in remembrance of these.<br />
<br />
This March meeting was a busy one, and at it all the business was concluded preliminary to actual work. The third Tuesday in each month was fixed as the time of meeting, a Committee of three was appointed; and it nominated John W. Dadmun to be first Master, Alfred F. Chapman to be. first Senior Warden, and John F. Abbot to be first Junior Warden, and these three were to carry to completion the business in hand.<br />
<br />
The next meeting was held April 16th in the office of the Grand Secretary, 31 were present and heard the Dispensation read with satisfaction, the Lodge was duly organized, petitions for degrees were received, and on May 21st, following, Franklin Smith, A. A. Fengar, W. S. Tower, and Wm. A. Greene, were made Masons in Zetland Lodge, U. D.<br />
<br />
On the 28th of the same month, the second and third degrees were conferred, by dispensation, on Capt. A. A. Fengar, he being a naval officer in the service of the United States.<br />
<br />
The proper committees had been diligent in procuring such paraphernalia as was needed for Lodge use, and on October 15th, 1867, a final report gave a schedule of the property procured, at a valuation of $931.04. Included in this were many valuable gifts by the members, in addition to the sum of $10.00 paid in at the outset by every one of them. The cash then in the hands of the Treasurer was $317.75, making the accumulations of seven months to reach the very handsome sum of $1,248.79 a showing at once significant of the zeal and liberality of the brethren.<br />
<br />
On February 18th, 1868, the first three officers were appointed to make arrangements for constituting the Lodge and installing the officers, and this was done on the evening of March 31st, 1868, by Grand Master Dame and officers of the Grand Lodge in the presence of about 180 persons, including the ladies and brethren.<br />
<br />
The first code of By-Laws was adopted at a special meeting on March 9th, 1868, but this, by more recent action has been modified. The limit to membership has been removed, the fees reduced, and quarterly meetings, for members only, have been abolished; all these were designed to encourage a closer union of the members, and greater sociability in the Lodge.<br />
<br />
Time, however, continues to work its changes, opinions change or lose their tension, and concluding that none of the original plans would be lost sight of or their purposes obstructed, these several modifications were made, including that which changed the time of meeting to the second Wednesday in each month, July and August excepted. Since its organization, but not including this occasion, the Lodge has held 177 meetings; it has made 95 Masons to January 10th, 1883; has had 115 members; has lost 10 by death, and 1 who had received but one degree; 11 have dimitted, and 7 have been discharged.<br />
<br />
Of the 33 Charter Members, 5 are of the dead, 4 are of those dimitted, and 4 are among those discharged; of the 20 who remain, reasonably good expectations can be held.<br />
<br />
The Lodge has had three Honorary Members: first, "Our M. W. Brother, Thomas Dundas, the Earl of Zetland, Most Worshipful Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England," was declared to be an Honorary Member by the By-Laws; second, Thomas Waterman, by reason of long and meritorious service in Freemasonry, was elected to such membership; and third, William H. Sampson, a Charter member, by reason of age and increasing infirmity, was added to the list. But these are they<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Who change no more; <br><br />
The only blest, the dwellers on the shore <br><br />
Of Spring fulfilled."<br />
</blockquote><br />
At the present, the Lodge has 88 members, 6 of whom hold certificates of Life Membership.<br />
<br />
Five Secretaries have been employed at different periods in keeping the Records, and these are models of neatness. George R. Rogers, the first Secretary, served at 46 meetings; Henry T. Parker, at 34 meetings; George N. Talbot, at 11 meetings; Hammond Vinton, at 72 meetings; and Charles L. Sproat, the present Secretary, has served at 14 meetings.<br />

brethren, and that they held "a pen to register; a key, that winds through secret wards." But in their praise,<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Time as he courses onward, still unrolls <br><br />
The volume of concealment."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
During its existence the Lodge has had fifteen different organizations, or boards of officers, under nine Masters. The latter succeeded each other as follows: [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJDadmun John W. Dadmun], Alfred F. Chapman, Charles E. Powers, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHFay Henry G. Fay], Thomas Waterman, Jr., Geo. R. Rogers, Edward H. Barton, L. G. A. Fauteaux, and Winfield L. Tucker.<br />
<br />
Each of these Masters has his own personality, anil among them there are qualities erf head and heart worthy of emulation. If we could group them and present the combined personality, astonishment might sit agape and good nature smile at the exhibition, — but let us look:<br />
<br />
The majority, or all of these brethren have been caricaturized, — good naturedly so, — for the social meetings of the Lodge, and I have no doubt the pictures would be as amusing to you as they were to them.<br />
<br />
Brother Dadmun, being a clergyman, appeared as a pleasant-faced Deacon, robed in clerical gown, with psalm-book in one hand and a tuning-fork in the other, that he might sound the lead, as a sort of bell-wether for the others of the flock to follow.<br />
<br />
Brother Chapman was represented — yes, he was represented — but the caricature was a failure; and in consequence of that, opportunity was taken on another evening while in the banquet hall, to present him with a strikingly unique jewel — which, after much persuasion, he has consented to exhibit. ''(This jewel was here shown.)''<br />
<br />
Brother Powers was shown as standing on the platform of an over-crowded horse car, holding in one hand a monster petition signed by 3,353,333 persons, in favor of an elevated railway in Boston; while with the other he was pointing to the multitude of pedestrians, as he sung in discordant refrain : —<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Ye waiting souls, rejoice <br><br />
To see the cuss removed."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The caricature of Brother Fay was a very pretty conceit. He was engaged in managing a horse that could indulge in only two motions — envious people said it was a rocking horse — but be that as it may, our Brother was decorated with a jewel, of which this is the only fellow. ''(The jewel already exhibited)''<br />
<br />
The picture of Brother Waterman was a characteristic one. He was represented as occupying apartments fitted and furnished for surgical operations; a patient was seated, with his right leg extended on crossbars, while the Doctor plied a carpenter's saw with professional delight.<br />
<br />
In the case of Brother Rogers, the artist had an easier task. His reputation as Major-General of the Cadets was suggestive: the scene was laid at Nahant, and embraced a military camp, a review, the placing of the guards (under shelter), the reception of visitors, and the social customs of camp-life — while Brother Rogers sat beside a table in his tent in the foreground, with a monster quill-pen poised over his right ear, a saucer-shaped glass with stem and base, upon the table beside him, as he complacently awaited the completion of his order for another bottle — of ink.<br />
<br />
Brother Barton was represented as the patient upon whom Dr. Waterman operated, and the remembance of it is so vivid that even now, after the lapse of years, any allusion to it, grates so harshly upon his nervous system as to give him a sensible shock.<br />
<br />
As to Brother Fauteaux he appeared as standing at a distance from the shore, uncertain whether the tide was to rise or fall; his attitude was one of partial repose, expressive of dignity and patronage, from one of his hands which were crossed upon his breast was a pendant roll, inscribed "Commutation Tax," "Receipt in Full," while under all was his favorite motto, "Pay as you go."<br />
<br />
In regard to the present Master, he has not, as yet, been caricatured, but those who know him have no occasion to ask, "Why don't you speak for yourself, John"?<br />
<br />
In advising you of the freedom with which these several Masters have been caricatured, I must also tell you that this was done after the Lodge had been closed, and in the banquet room, where sociability prevailed. Every one of them was willing to contribute his trifle of merit or of mirth to the occasion, and the provoking pencil was always a welcome adjunct to the conceits of the hour. In all of these, the members have taken a lively interest and a better digestion has waited upon appetite.<br />
<br />
But it is not to mirth alone that these Masters have devoted their attention; their methods, like, their minds, have been different, but every one of them has looked to the completion of his plan. In the Lodge or out of it, in the banquet-room or in the hall of labor, a sense of responsibility has I rested beneath the song of mirth; and though we may not claim superiority for any one, yet we can say that, measured by the standards of what we know is only human, they have filled their places with ability, and thereby shown that they were Masters worthy of emulation, and I may add without flattery or fear of reproach, that in all these higher attributes the present successful incumbent of the Chair is the peer of any one of them.<br />
<br />
The year in which the Lodge was organized is a memorable I one in the annals of Freemasonry in Massachusetts, and every brother who participated in the magnificent street display incidental to the dedication of this Temple, will remember it as a "golden milestone" on his way to the limitless beyond. Then, the Lodge was only an inchoate body, and therefore not competent as though it had been a chartered one; but it moved I into these apartments, as did the older ones, and held its first meeting here, September 17th, 1867.<br />
<br />
It bore its proportion of the first Tax laid, in payment of the cost of construction of this edifice, and most of its members paid in commutation. The fees it fixed for the degrees : and membership were of the highest, and in sympathy with I these the annual dues were correspondingly high. The times I through which the Lodge has lived, have been depressed, business has reached out for help, fire has devastated the city, fortunes have vanished in a night and strong men have fallen; but the Lodge has preserved its Masonic reputation and this is its supreme hour on the way to its secured success.<br />
<br />
In 1879, a second per capita Tax was laid by the Grand Lodge, to run for a period of 15 years at the rate of $1.00 a year, with the option to Lodges or members to commute in a single payment of $10.00. Zetland Lodge then had 62 members, paying quarterages, as they always had, at the rate of $10.00 a year.<br />
<br />
A number of these were so much in arrears for dues, because of losses, that under the By-Laws they could have been properly discharged; if this had been clone, the membership could have been fairly reduced, and $100 could have been saved to the treasury from the Grand Lodge Tax; but hitherto the Lodge had not been a drone, and it now declined to be a shirk. A very large percentage of debt was forgiven to members, and a check for the full amount of the capitation Tax, to wit, for $620 was handed to Grand Lodge in open session on June 9th, 1880.<br />
<br />
A full report of the proceedings leading to this result would, of itself, be interesting, but the truths of history are stronger and will outlive individual praise.<br />
<br />
We have said that the Lodge now has 88 members, six of whom are Life members.<br />
<br />
Having voluntarily taxed themselves heavily for 14 years, the members voted to reduce the fees for membership, and to fix the annual dues at $5.00. To this end the By-Laws were revised, these were approved by the Grand Lodge, and the exhibition of this evening is the second time of public welcome given by the Lodge to its members and their friends, — The Ladies.<br />
<br />
If we could assemble the Lodge as an individual, possessed of the collective manhood of its members, we can only imagine how fruitiful would be the retrospect of the years of its existence— from childhood to manhood at a step how much of the latter has been wrought into its being — from the room in Summer Street it came to this in the flush of inexperienced youth : side by side its early members marched without break or vacancy in their numbers, but in that retrospect we may call in vain to its chartered ranks, for ''Charles H. Almy'', ''Samuel S. Ford'', ''George S. Noyes'', ''William Pratt, Jr.'', and ''William H. Sampson''. If we turn the leaves of memory we shall again see the mourning line drawn beneath the names of ''George A. Bates'', ''J. Quincy Billings'', ''Joseph P. Calrow'', ''John Humphrey'' and ''Arthur H. Williams''. These vacancies bring us to see the Lodge's youth again, and standing upon its threshold we seem to hear it say:<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Years, years have passed, I have returned once more <br><br />
To view the sacred spot where I was born.<br><br />
<br><br />
And though the sky of youth is overhead, <br><br />
My steps are slow, — they fall among the dead. <br><br />
Before me, marked by many a mouldering stone, <br><br />
My fathers and my early friends are sleeping low. <Br><br />
Spirits, I feel you o'er me. Bless me ere I go!"<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
It is not to retrospect, however, that present energies are due, helpful as that may be on occasion. The way of the Lodge is before it, poverty and decay may obstruct it—let these be touched'with gentle hands — Fortune may follow it with breezes of prosperity ; Let neither arrogance nor conceit raise a cloud ; but being born into the strength of manhood, a peer without a superior, let Temperance, Fortitude, Prudence and Justice prevail, having ever in mind the duties of manhood, which constitute the mission of Freemasonry—the practice of Brotherly-Love, Relief and Truth.<br />
<br />
In the exercise of these Virtues, and in the wealth of opportunities to come, Zetland Lodge may crown its anniversaries with perpetual youth, and continue its work with the discretion of manhood, until,<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Eternity depending covers all; <br><br />
Sets Earth at distance; casts her into shades; <br><br />
Blends her distinctions; abrogates her powers."<br />

<br />
The officers of Zetland Lodge, for 1884 were duly installed into their respective stations at the regular meeting held January 9th, by Wor. Bro. Alfred F. Chapman, assisted by the Junior Past Master, Winfield L. Tucker. The Master and Wardens are George D. Burrage, Warren B. Witherell, Charles E. Whitmore. Following the installation, W. Bro. Alfred F. Chapman, in behalf of the Lodge, presented Wor. Bro. Tucker a Past Master's Jewel, of the usual pattern and style adopted in the Lodge, and fully equal in workmanship and value to any heretofore given by the Lodge. Wor. Bro. Thomas Waterman, by the same authority, presented Bro. Charles L. Sproat, Secretary during 1882 and 1883, with a beautiful Masonic Charm to wear on his watch chain. This was in recognition of his services as Secretary, from the duties of which office he chose to retire because of increased business cares-The administration of Wor. Bro. Tucker was a highly successful and popular one, and his successor enters upon the duties of Master under favorable auspices.<br />

The third degree was worked in this lodge at its regular meeting, June 9th, by the Past Masters, who occupied the respective stations in rank according to seniority of service. The brethren gave the work as done when they were in active service. Some changes were made in the ritual by Grand Lodge in 1876, and as a natural consequence, the brethren admitted since then were not familiar with its reading prior to that date. <br />
<br />
The Lodge was organized in 1867, and its Masters have been [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLJDadmun John W. Dadmun], Alfred F. Chapman, Charles E.

A collation was served in the banquet hall, which concluded what was conceded to be a lughly interesting and pleasant event.<br />

Whitmore, Master of the Lodge, cordially welcomed the official delegation, and afterward worked the first degree in such a manner as to secure the congratulations and approval of the Deputy, who had good wot1 also for the Secretary and other officers. In all of this we take personal pride, as Zetland is the Lodge of our affiliation.<br />

<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. XIII, No. 4, July 1889, Page 128:''<br />
<br />
At the regular meeting in June, after the close of the work the W. Master invited the brethren to the banquet-hail where a fine collation was served. A surprise was here given to the. brethren, who had their curiosity somewhat excited by a mysterious looking curtain drawn across the northerly arm of the hall. It soon appeared that Wor. Bro. Dr. Thomas Waterman, a Past Master of the Lodge, was to give one of his unique exhibitions in sleight-of-hand performance, without the adjuncts usually attending similar exhibitions. The brethren evidently enjoyed the performance, and wondered much how the doctor could so completely mystify them, but he did it, nevertheless. It was a pleasant conclusion to a busy season by the Lodge.<br />

''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. XIV, No. 2, May 1890, Page 59:''<br />
<br />
On Wednesday evening, April 30, 1890, the Masonic Temple in Boston was occupied by Zetland Lodge for social purposes. Sutton Hall and ante-rooms were used as reception rooms for the ladies. A half-hour was devoted to inspection of Egyptian Hall, the armories of Boston, De Molay, and Joseph Warren Commanderies, and other rooms opened for the purpose. During a part of this time, preliminary to assembling in Gothic Hall, the band concluded No. 1 of the programme, the "welcome" being said at 8 o'clock. The entire numbers, as arranged on the programme, were as follows:<br />
<br />

Conspicuous among the guests was the Grand Master, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWells Samuel Wells], Esq., but the audience was confined quite closely to Lodge membership. A committee of arrangements of Past Masters, a reception committee, and the officers of the Lodge cooperated in carrying the reception to a very pleasant conclusion. The principal halls, stairways, and banquet-hall were beautified by a handsome display of plants and flowers. One hundred and fifty persons were seated at table. A "menu "gave place to quotations, and these concluded the neatly-arranged and well-printed programme.<br />

<br />
The annual meeting of this Lodge was held on the evening of December 10, 1890, in Masonic Temple, Boston. The reports show the Lodge to have had a prosperous year, and from personal observation we judge the candidates accepted to have been worthy of the favorable consideration they received. The retiring Master, Wor. Bro. J. T. Meader, has been diligent and successful in administering the affairs of the Lodge. The officers elected for the year ensuing, are Wor. Thomas Waterman, a Past Master, to be Master; Frank E. Howe, S. W.; Horace A. Wallingford, J. W.; Rollin Jones, Treas.; Arthur P. French, Secretary. The Master made the following appointments: J. Frank Gammell, Chaplain; Edward L. Rugg, Marshal; James W. Hinckley, S. D.; William M. Smith, J. D.; Arthur W. Joslin, S. S.; Horace B. Stevens, J. S.; James C. Sharkey, I. S.; William H.

==== GRAND MASTER VISIT, NOVEMBER 1907 ====<br />
<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. III, No. 3, December 1907, Page 106:''<br />
<br />
It is not our practice to mention the visits of the District Deputy Grand Masters, as we do not wish to notice one and omit others and to speak of all would exceed the limits of our pages. Then are, however, some features of interest which come in connection with visitations that may he properly mentioned. Such were found on Nov. 13, on the occasion of the visit to Zetland Lodge, Boston, of Right Worshipful George J. Tufts, District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MACambridge2_1883-1910 Second Masonic District].<br />
<br />
We speak of this occasion because Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLGChester George W. Chester], Master of the Lodge, had determined to make this evening the crowning glory of his career as Master. Many distinguished Masons were present by invitation, among whom were Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBlake J. Albert Blake], grand master of Massachusetts; Most Worshipful C. A. Calderwood, Grand Master of Vermont; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEGraves E. G.

Odell], District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAEastBoston3_1883-1910 Third], and Fred C. Garvin, District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASouthBoston4_1883-1910 Fourth District]. There were also present past District Deputy Grand masters A. M. Osgood, Wm. F. Chester, and F. H. Nichols. Beside those mentioned there were many other past officers of the grand lodge, and past and present presiding Masters of lodges, in and about Boston. An interesting incident of the evening was the admission of a candidate who is a son of a Past Master of the lodge, a nephew of the presiding Master and a grandson of a charter member of the lodge. One of his great-grandfathers was a member of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountLebanon Mt. Lebanon] Lodge and a great-great-grandfather was a member of the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=RisingStates Rising States] Lodge, the noted lodge formed in opposition to the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=StAndrew Lodge of St. Andrew] by [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere].<br />
<br />
During the ceremony of admission the father of the candidate occupied the chair. District Deputy Tufts made a pleasant speech in which he said he would not allude to the secretary's duties, but if there were any omissions it might not do to refer to them, a remark which caused applause and a general smile as the deputy occupies that capacity in the lodge and his ability in handling the duties is universally known. As they had the light of the sun reflected upon them by the presence of the Grand Master, and there were so many other luminaries present he would give way to the one who shed his brightness over the jurisdiction.<br />
<br />
Grand Master Blake assured the craftsmen that he was not present in his official capacity, but only in a social and personal way. He did not know whether he was the sun or the moon, a sally thai evoked applause, as he neatly turned the tables on the previous speaker. In alluding to the ceremony in which father and son had played so conspicuous a part, he remarked that it indicated the firm and abiding principles found in Freemasonry when its members deemed it was so good for their kinsmen. The roster of the various lodges showed this to a great degree. The members realized the universality of the order — it knows no bounds, no country. As the touch of nations comes closer and closer this kinship would be found to extend to them as well. "We stand for all that makes a man manly," said the Grand Master in closing an eloquent, timely and thoughtful address that breathed the spirit of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man.<br />
<br />
The closing feature of the evening was a bountiful banquet which made a fitting ending to a meeting thai was conspicuous by the harmony and good-fellowship of the brethren.<br />

The final act of Wor. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLGChester Geo. W. Chester], as Master of Zetland Lodge, Boston, was a fitting conclusion of his career as Master of the lodge. No Master has labored more zealously or with greater intelligence for the prosperity of his lodge than he. New features of interest have been continually presented, some of them simple in character, but all expressive of constant care and interest in the lodge.<br />
<br />
The annual meeting of the lodge was held December 11. Previous to opening for business a banquet was provided. At the head table sat Worshipful Mastei Chester, Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBlake Blake], Grand Treasurer Ramsay, Grand Marshal [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Johnson], Grand Prelate Perin of the Grand Commandery, Past Deputy Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson GMBenton Benton], Past Grand Warden [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEDavis Davis], Grand Junior Warden-elect [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRoberts Roberts], District Deputies [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWOdell Odell] and Tufts and Worshipful Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLAbbott Abbott] of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Columbian Columbian].<br />
<br />
The menu was a novelty and an example of Wor. Bro. Chester's constant surprises. ft was a miniature blue lodge apron, of white lambskin, having on the lap the date, Dec. 11, 1907. and beneath on the face a picture of the Earl of Zetland, with the words, ''Annual Dinner / Zetland Lodge.'' On the "lining" were the dishes that constituted the "lining" provided by the caterer.<br />
<br />
The banquet was concluded with a series of brilliant and interesting speeches by the Wor. Master, the Grand Master, Worshipful Leon M. Abbott and others.<br />
<br />
After adjournment to Corinthian Hall, Grand Marshal Johnson of the Grand Lodge, assisted by Past Master Arthur T. Reed of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=LafayetteR Lafayette] Lodge as marshal, installed the following officers of Zetland Lodge: Edwin H. Rogers. W. M.; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEYoung Edmund S. Young], S. W.: Frederick E. Meader, J. W.; Rollin Jones, Treasurer (18th term); George J. Tufts (P. M.), Secretary; Rev. George L. Perin. Chaplain: Gilbert F. Day, Associate Chaplain; Walter J. Currier. M.: Howard Whitmore. S.D. ; William C. Crane. J. D.: Seldom D. Bartlett, S. S.; John W. Johnson. J. S.: Felix J. Levy. I. S.: William H. Gerrish, O.: Benjamin B. Gillette, Chorister; Edward F. Jacobs, Tyler.<br />
<br />
The installing officials were presented bouquets by Worshipful Master Rogers.<br />

''From New England Craftsman, Vol. VII, No. 6, March 1912, Page 202:''<br />
<br />
The officers of Zetland lodge, Boston, for 1912 are: Frederick E. Meader, Worshipful master; Howard Whitmore, Senior Warden; William C. Crane, Junior Warden; Leonard A. Cates, Treasurer; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMACoolidge Arthur W. Coolidge], Secretary; Arthur J. Bates, and Hilbert F. Day, Chaplains; John W. Johnson and Elwood T. Easton, Deacons; William M. Wise and William M. Cates, Stewards; Edward N. Kent, Inside Sentinel; William H. Gerrish, Organist, and Edward F. Jacobs, Tyler. <br />
<br />
The annual meeting of Zetland lodge occurs on the day of the annual meeting of the Grand Lodge and it is usual for the Grand Master and other prominent members of the Grand Lodge to be the guests of Zetland Lodge on these occasions. This was true of the last annual meeting when a large number of Grand Lodge officers and members responded to invitations to be present. Among those present were [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMFlanders Dana J. Flanders], Grand Master; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLSHauser Samuel Hauser], Senior Grand Warden; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLTDavis Thomas W. Davis], Recording Grand Secretary; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBlake J. Albert Blake] and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHolmes Edwin B. Holmes], Past Grand Masters; [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBenton Everett C. Benton] and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWOdell Wm. H. L. Odell], Past Deputy Grand Masters. An excellent dinner was served. After the dinner Worshipful Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEYoung Edmund S. Young], gave a speech of welcome and called on the following brethren to address the lodge: Most Wor. Bros. Dana J. Flanders and Edwin B. Holmes and Rt. Wor. Bros. Everett C. Benton, [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Melvin M. Johnson], [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLATreadway Allen T. Treadway] and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLCBrodeur Clarence A. Brodeur]. The remarks of the brethren were received with interest and warm approval by the brethren of the lodge. The officers were installed by Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWSoule William H. H. Soule] assisted by Wor. William B. Reid as marshal. The choice of Rt. Wor. Bro. Soule as installing officer is singularly appropriate as his relation with the lodge has been close ever since it was chartered in 1867. He had a personal acquaintance with each of the charter members as well as with every master of the lodge since its organization. The lodge has been prosperous under the administration of the retiring master, Wor. Bro. Young, and there is reason to expect an equal prosperity under the direction of Wor. Bro. Meader.<br />

<br />
There was a brilliant program of one hour and a half in Ionic Hall, and dancing until midnight in Gothic Hall. The genial details were in charge of the master, the floor director was Charles E. Munroe and James E. Munroe had the supervision of the banquet.<br />

<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1957-3:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful E. Louis Greenblatt.''<br />
<br />
When men of good will, possessed of a true Masonic spirit, join their hearts and minds in one common purpose, their labors reflect the true image of our Creator. Recorded history recounts that many of man's great accomplishments were made during periods of stress and turmoil. This is proof that truly sincere men can do their best creating and thinking when "the chips are down." Under such circumstances and during the depths of a world economic depression did Moses Michael Hays Lodge come into being. In celebrating the Silver Anniversary of Moses Michael Hays Lodge, it is fitting that we should reflect upon the labors of those Masons who for twenty-five years have witnessed the growth of an idea into its present maturity.<br />
<br />
In September 1931, a group of enthusiastic Masons headed by the late Harry A. Friedland, a member of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Germania Germania] Lodge, approached Worshipful Joseph Brettler, a Past Master of Germania Lodge, and enlisted his aid in the formation of a new Masonic Lodge in Boston. Wor. Brother Brettler, a learned and devout Mason, lent an attentive ear and interested two other accomplished Masons, Wor. T. Rutherford Edwards, Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Revere Revere] Lodge, and Wor. Harry Smith, Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Shawmut Shawmut] Lodge, in this endeavor. Several informal meetings of this organizing group followed, at which the charter list was completed and a name selected for the Lodge. Wor. Harry Smith, an experienced student of Freemasonry, suggested that the Lodge be named [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHays Moses Michael] Hays in order to perpetuate the name of a great American, humanitarian and distinguished Mason who had served as Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts from 1788 to 1792. We were fortunate to be joined in our charter list by several other distinguished Masons, R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLSHauser Samuel Hauser], Past Senior Grand Warden, R. W. Arthur E. Fisk and R.W. Frank S. Jones, Past District Deputy Grand Masters, and Wor. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLHStevens Henry W. Stevens], who later was elected Senior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
The news of our efforts to erect another structure in Freemasonry spread rapidly throughout the Boston area, and scores of Masons eagerly sought to be included in our charter list. It was decided to limit this list to fifty members and to bring to it only Masons with the determination required for success. Because of an error in listing, it was agreed to permit two more names to be added and to close the list at fifty-two members.<br />
<br />
On December 1, 1931, Worshipful Brothers Brettler, Edwards and Smith waited upon Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHDean Herbert W. Dean], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and presented him with a petition signed by the fifty-two Charter Members and praying to be congregated as Moses Michael Hays Lodge with permission to meet in Boston.<br />
<br />
On December 8, 1931, R. W. Robert S. Chase, District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston2_1927-2003 Boston Second Masonic District], advised that he had received a dispensation from the Grand Master for the formation of Moses Michael Hays Lodge.<br />
<br />
A meeting of the petitioners was called at the Masonic Temple, Boston, on Tuesday, December 22, 1931, at which R. W. Robert S. Chase read the dispensation, and with the assistance of Wor. Frank E. Mclntyre, District Deputy Grand Marshal, and Wor. and Rev. Warren P. Landers, Grand Chaplain, seated Wor. T. Rutherford Edwards as Master, Wor. Joseph Brettler as Senior Warden, and Wor. Harry Smith as Junior Warden. Revere Lodge of Boston graciously loaned us the use of their regalia for this occasion. Wor. Bradford L. Ames was next seated as Treasurer and R.W. Arthur E. Fisk as Secretary. Wor. Bro. Edwards appointed the following line officers:<br />
* Chaplain, Bro. Charles J. Jaffe<br />
* Marshal, Wor. Henry W. Stevens<br />
* Senior Deacon, Bro. Harry A. Friedland<br />
* Junior Deacon, Bro. Joseph R. Rosen<br />
* Senior Steward, Bro. Milton Garb<br />
* Junior Steward, Bro. Howard S. Gutlon<br />
* Inside Sentinel, Bro. Ralph J. Cohen<br />
* Tyler, Bro. Samuel D. Basch<br />
Thus, in an atmosphere of solemnity and dignity was Moses Michael Hays Lodge instituted.<br />
<br />
Wor. Brother Edwards, or "Ted" as he was popularly known, received his Masonic degrees in Liverpool, England, and he recommended that we pattern our new Lodge after the general plan of English Lodges where the memberships are small, and consequently result in closer contacts and friendships among the Brethren. Accordingly, our first By-Laws stipulated that no more than three candidates would be taken in any class. For a number of years, therefore, our growth was slow and our members got to know each other intimately.<br />
<br />
At our second communication, Bro. Joseph R. Rosen, nationally known engrosser and illuminator, submitted a design for the front page of our Lodge notice. The fine artistry was acclaimed and adopted by the members, and is to this day the distinctive and attractive frontispiece of our Lodge notice.<br />
<br />
Several Lodges in the Boston area graciously offered their assistance in getting Moses Michael Hays Lodge off to a good start. Through the courtesy and genuine Masonic friendship of Wor. Bro. Max H. Summerfield and the members of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MajorGeneralHenryKnox Major General Henry Knox] Lodge, we were granted the use of their regalia during our period of dispensation.<br />
<br />
At our fourth communication held on March 22, 1932, we initiated the first class, at which Brothers Louis E. Chervin, George Sherman and Leo Stiglitz received their Entered Apprentice Degree.<br />
<br />
At our fifth communication on April 26, 1932, Brothers Max M. and Milton Garb jointly presented to the Lodge a beautiful set of the Three Great Lights, which were accepted by the Worshipful Master on behalf of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
The early years of our Lodge found most of our members attending meetings dressed in tuxedo, and such members who found it necessary to be absent, were requested to communicate with the Master by letter or telephone in order that all members might be accounted for. At dinner, we would pause to drink a toast to our absent Brethren.<br />
<br />
Under the excellent tutelage of Wor. Bro. Edwards, our line officers promptly became proficient in the ritual work. We also will never forget the patient and friendly instruction of Wor. Henry W. Stevens in our floor work, when, starting with a group of amateurs who found it difficult to distinguish the right foot from the left, he drilled them into a smooth and orderly team, evoking much pleasing and favorable comment from the side lines.<br />
<br />
Our seventh communication was held on June 28, 1932, at which Brothers Chervin, Sherman and Stiglitz were raised to the Sublime Degree. These three Brothers as the first class to be raised, presented the Lodge with a beautiful set of sterling silver working tools.<br />
<br />
At the quarterly communication of the Grand Lodge held on September 14, 1932, a Charter was granted to our Lodge and announcement was made that the Lodge would be constituted on Tuesday, November 22.<br />
<br />
At our ninth communication on October 25, 1932, Brothers Lyman Croan, Samuel Lebow and Joseph Greenbaum presented the Lodge with a complete set of officers' batons and other implements in honor of having received their Master Mason Degree.<br />
<br />
With pleasant anticipation did we await our tenth communication on November 22, 1932, at which 280 Brethren assembled in the banquet-hall to welcome to dinner the Most Worshipful Grand Master and Grand Lodge Officers, escorted by Wor. T. Rutherford Edwards. At 8 P. M., Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMChipman Curtis Chipman], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, accompanied by his Grand Lodge Officers and an elaborate suite of distinguished Masons, assembled in Ionic Hall and constituted our Lodge in due and ancient form. It was a most solemn and impressive ceremony. The M.W. Grand Master and his Officers then installed the officers of Moses Michael Hays Lodge in their respective stations. A distinguished visitor on this occasion was Most Worshipful A. Stirling McKay, Past Grand Master of Masons of Prince Edward Island.<br />
<br />
M.W. Brother Chipman delivered an interesting and inspiring address in which he welcomed Moses Michael Hays Lodge into the Grand Lodge, wished us success, and congratulated us in our honoring the memory of an eminent and distinguished Mason by naming our Lodge for him.<br />
A vacancy having occurred in the office of Treasurer, by special dispensation of the Grand Master, an election was held and E. Louis Greenblatt was elected Treasurer on March 28, 1933.<br />
<br />
Wor. T. Rutherford Edwards will never be forgotten by those who had the privilege to know and work with him. During his two years as Worshipful Master, our Lodge activities were solidly established and we could look with confidence to the future. During his administration, Honorary Membership was conferred on M. W. Herbert W. Dean, Past Grand Master, M. W. Curtis Chipman, Grand Master, R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFHamilton Frederick W. Hamilton], Grand Secretary, and R. W. Robert S. Chase, Past District Deputy Grand Master, who had honored us with many courtesies.<br />
<br />
Wor. Joseph Brettler, to whom we reverently refer as the Father of Moses Michael Hays Lodge, was installed Master on December 7, 1933. A large delegation of members of Germania Lodge came to pay honor and respect to their popular Past Master. Joe's wide popularity in Freemasonry brought to our meetings many Brethren from other Lodges. He arranged testimonial nights to honor M. W. Herbert W. Dean, M. W. Curtis Chipman and R. W. Frederick W. Hamilton, who had assisted us in the founding of our Lodge. Honorary Membership was conferred on Wor. T. Rutherford Edwards, Wor. Henry W. Stevens, R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMSchaefer Albert A. Schaefer] and R .W. Arthur E. Fisk. On November 29, 1935, our Lodge participated in a Masonic Night at Temple Ohabei Shalom at the invitation of Rabbi and Brother Samuel L Abrams.<br />
<br />
Under Wor. Bro. Brettler's administration, we held our first Ladies' Night at Weber Duck Inn on June 11, 1934, where 200 of our members and their ladies enjoyed an excellent dinner and dancing. Two other ladies' parties followed later in the year. At our Legislative Night on February 7, 1935, we were visited by a large group of Masons in the Massachusetts Legislature, headed by the Honorable and Brother Leverett Saltonstall, Speaker of the House of Representatives and later elected Governor and Senator.<br />
<br />
We were truly proud of our Charter Member, Brother Louis Joseph, when he was installed Master of Shawmut Lodge in September 1935.<br />
<br />
An outstanding event in our Lodge's history was indeed the 41st regular communication on December 5, 1935, when Wor. Harry Smith was installed as the third Master by the Charles Ramsay Club, under the direction of R. W. Arthur A. Sondheim, Past District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston1_1927-2003 Boston First Masonic District], assisted by several Past Masters of Shawmut Lodge, of which Wor. Harry Smith was also a Past Master. R. W. Brother Sondheim, a beloved and respected Mason throughout the Massachusetts jurisdiction, installed Wor. Bro. Smith in a most impressive manner and complimented the members of Moses Michael Hays Lodge on their excellent progress. It is significant to note that R.W. Arthur A. Sondheim would some twenty years later have the 33rd Degree conferred upon him — an honor which was well deserved and the announcement of which brought delight to his multitude of Masonic friends.<br />
<br />
At his first meeting on January 2, 1936, Wor. Bro. Smith called attention to the establishment of our Relief Fund and pledges were accepted promptly in order to build a fund that would provide financial assistance to members of Moses Michael Hays Lodge, their widows and orphans. Wor. Bro. Joseph Brettler was elected an Honorary Member at this communication.<br />
<br />
Wor. Bro. Smith, on a trip to New York City, met Lelia A. Myers and Adelia P. Myers, great-great-great granddaughters of Moses Michael Hays, who showed him the Masonic jewels and apron he wore when in office as Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts from 1788 to 1792. Fine salesman that he was, Wor. Bro. Smith induced these ladies to turn the mementos over to Moses Michael Hays Lodge with the assurance that they would be suitably framed and presented to the Grand Lodge for permanent display in its museum in Boston. This presentation took place at our fifth anniversary celebration held in the Grand Ballroom of the Copley Plaza Hotel, Boston, on January 7, 1937, where M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAllen Claude L. Allen], Grand Master, accepted them on behalf of the Grand Lodge. These valuable mementos have been assigned a prominent place in the Grand Lodge museum and have been viewed by thousands of visitors.<br />
<br />
That Wor. Bro. Smith had an eye for the future of our Lodge is attested by his suggestion and the Lodge's vote on December 3, 1936, that a sum of fifty dollars be set aside annually as a special fund for the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary.<br />
<br />
To culminate a most progressive and productive term as Master, Wor. Bro. Smith announced at our communication held on October 7, 1937, that in collaboration with Wor. J. Hugo Tatsch, Acting Librarian and Curator of the Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts, he had written and published a book on the Life of Moses Michael Hays. Copies of this book were presented to the libraries of the Grand Lodges of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York, the Boston Public Library, the Boston Historical Society and to our members. At Wor. Bro. Smith's last meeting on November 4, 1937, we were honored by a fraternal visit of M .W. Claude L. Allen, Grand Master.<br />
<br />
Thus ended the first six years of our Lodge's existence, which under the leadership of three able, experienced and dedicated Masters, placed it on a firm foundation to face the future with courage.<br />
<br />
At our memorable sixty-first communication on December 2, 1937, Brother Joseph R. Rosen was installed as the fourth Master by M. W. James H. Price, Past Grand Master of Masons of Virginia and the then Governor-elect, who came to perform this delightful duty for his long-time friend.<br />
Significantly, Joe's installation marked the beginning of a new era, as he was the first line officer to occupy the East. Popularly known as the "man with a million friends," his administration was marked by many interesting meetings and events which included several exchange fraternal visits with Lodges in the Boston area, and a Father & Sons Sports' Night. Our meeting of October 6, 1938, was designated as M. W. Frederick W. Hamilton Night, at which nearly 300 Masons, in a spirit of love and respect came to join a large group of distinguished Masons in paying tribute to our own esteemed Honorary Member for his long and meritorious service to the Craft. Past Grand Masters Melvin M. Johnson, Arthur D. Prince and Claude L. Allen were present on this occasion.<br />
<br />
On May 9, 1939, our Lodge paid tribute to the memory of M. W. Moses Michael Hays on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of his birth, by a pilgrimage to his resting place in Newport, Rhode Island.<br />
<br />
The lodge-room was filled to capacity on November 2, 1939, when we welcomed R. W. Albert A. Schaefer by designating this communication in his honor. Honorary Membership was conferred on Wor. Brother J. Hugo Tatsch.<br />
<br />
During the same month, Moses Michael Hays Lodge joined with several other Lodges at Temple Israel, Boston, in a memorial and religious service commemorating the 150th anniversary of the first inauguration of Wor. George Washington as President of the United States, and to pay tribute to him as a Mason.<br />
<br />
Brother Milton Garb was installed as the fifth Master on December 7, 1939. Our esteemed, efficient and kindly R.W. Arthur E. Fisk, because of ill-health, was unable to continue as Secretary after eight years of loyal and devoted service, and Wor. Joseph Brettler was elected Secretary at this communication.<br />
<br />
Following the custom of his predecessors, Wor. Brother Garb planned several enjoyable and interesting meetings, among which was a Fraternal Visit with his Officers to Germania Lodge, where he was raised. Later, Wor. E. Louis Greenblatt and the Officers of Germania Lodge paid a return Fraternal Visit to Moses Michael Hays Lodge.<br />
<br />
Our meeting of April 4, 1940, was designated as Past Masters' and Charter Members' Night. All stations were occupied by our Past Masters, Honorary and Charter Members, with R. W. T. Rutherford Edwards in the East. The charge was delivered by M. W. Herbert W. Dean, Past Grand Master.<br />
<br />
As the clouds of war were hovering over the world, and our country began to strengthen its military and naval defenses, Wor. Bro. Garb, in his annual report of December 5, 1940, recommended, and the Lodge voted: "that any member who shall join the Armed Forces of the United States shall be exempt from the payment of Lodge Dues for the duration."<br />
<br />
Wor. Bro. Garb's last meeting of his term on November 6, 1941, which also marked our 100th regular communication, was dedicated to R.W. Henry W. Stevens, our Marshal, for a decade of inspired and devoted service to our Lodge. M. W. Claude L. Allen, Past Grand Master, came to join us in honoring Brother Stevens who had served as his Grand Sword Bearer. Present also was our Grand Master, M.W. Albert A. Schaefer, who presented to Brother Stevens the Distinguished Service Medal of the Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
Brother Howard S. Gutlon was installed as the sixth Master on December 4, 1941, three days before the Pearl Harbor tragedy which engulfed our Country into World War II. Despite the many trying problems which faced this new administration, we proceeded to celebrate our tenth anniversary at the Copley Plaza Hotel on February 23, 1942. As our Brother and President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was scheduled to address the Country by radio that evening, a recess was taken during the celebration to listen to this broadcast. Wor. Bro. Gutlon promptly prepared an Honor Roll of our 27 members and 28 sons and daughters of members serving in our Country's Armed Forces.<br />
<br />
Two of our meetings were designated as Army Night and Navy Night, at both of which we entertained large contingents of Masonic Brethren in the Service.<br />
<br />
An outstanding event was indeed our 120th communication on November 4, 1943, designated as Wor. Joseph Brettler Night, when a capacity attendance paid tribute to the twelve years of faithful service rendered by the Father of our Lodge.<br />
<br />
The members of Moses Michael Hays Lodge were elated at the announcement that at the Quarterly Communication of the Grand Lodge in December 1942 our genial Marshal, R.W. Henry W. Stevens, was elected Senior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge, bringing much glory to our Lodge.<br />
<br />
To accommodate many of our members who desired to propose their sons and relatives into our Lodge prior to their induction into the Armed Forces, our By-Laws were amended to enable us to work on five candidates at a time.<br />
<br />
Wor. Bro. Gutlon's term through two trying years was characterized by energetic planning of interesting meetings which gained for him the approbation of his members.<br />
<br />
Bro. Ralph J. Cohen assumed the East as our seventh Master during the most difficult days of the war. Recognized and respected as an authority on Masonic Ritual, and faced with the loss of several of our line officers to the Armed Forces, he nevertheless carried on his meetings with the dignity and precision established by his predecessors. The Lodge will ever appreciate the emergency service rendered by our Past Masters and members in occupying vacant stations.<br />
<br />
Our Grand Lodge had created the Masonic Military Service Fund for the purpose of establishing Centers in this Country and abroad to assist our Masonic Brethren in these areas. Under the direction of Wor. Bro. Cohen, who was assisted by an able committee, the members of Moses Michael Hays Lodge made the second largest per capita contribution to this fund in the entire jurisdiction, being exceeded only by one small Lodge with a membership of thirty-two. We were truly proud to receive the commendation of the Most Worshipful Grand Master for our members' generosity. We also created our own War Emergency Fund, which under the able direction of Bro. Sidney R. Jackson and his efficient Service Committee, provided periodic shipments of goodies to all our members in the Service.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was shocked to hear of the passing of our Senior Steward, Bro. Jacob Levinson, after a prolonged illness. Our officers and members established the Jacob Levinson Memorial Fund in his memory, which to this day provides aid to needy children, an activity dear to the heart of our late Brother.<br />
<br />
Because of the pressure of personal business, and knowing that our Lodge was firmly established, Wor. Bro. Brettler asked to be relieved as Secretary, and Wor. Bro. Harry Smith was elected to this office.<br />
<br />
At our 139th communication on September 4, 1945, rejoicing was in order as the Armed Forces of the United Nations had been triumphant in the World conflict. Concurring with the request of M. W. Harry S. Truman, President of the United States, a prayer of thanksgiving was offered. Later in the month, a large number of our officers and members viewed with pride the installation of another Charter Member, Bro. Louis Hamburger, as Master of Shawmut Lodge.<br />
<br />
We reached another milestone in our Lodge's history with the installation of Bro. Leo Stiglitz as our eighth Master on December 4, 1945. Brother Stiglitz was the first member raised in Moses Michael Hays Lodge to attain the East. Reflecting his good training as a line officer, he carried on the various Lodge activities with precision and to the pleasure of our members. With his keen sense of finances, he induced our members to generous donations to our Relief and other funds as is evidenced by the fact that during his term in office our financial assets were more than doubled.<br />
To further our charitable activities in and out of our Lodge, the Leon Rosenthal Memorial Fund was created by many friends of our late esteemed Brother to assist a variety of needy causes.<br />
<br />
The Lodge suffered a great loss in the passing of R.W. Arthur E. Fisk, who had served as our first Secretary, and whose kindly personality will always be remembered by those who knew him.<br />
<br />
During Bro. Stiglitz's administration, we celebrated our fifteenth anniversary on February 3, 1947, with a gala Ladies' Night at the Hotel Statler. More than 500 members, ladies and guests enjoyed a fine program.<br />
<br />
Having survived the growing pains of our early years and the trials and exigencies of a great war, Bro. Albert M. Krensky was installed as the ninth Master in an atmosphere of enthusiasm and exhilaration. To cement more closely the friendships among our Brethren, Bro. Krensky scheduled an interesting variety of meetings by dedicating a "Night" in honor of each Past Master, and arranging for excellent speakers at our dinners. Our formal Ladies' Night and our first Family Dinner Party were other highlights of his administration. The excellent portrayal of our degree work by our officers continued to attract large turnouts of members and visitors to our meetings.<br />
<br />
A wide and varied experience in fraternal organization was brought to the East of our Lodge with the installation of Bro. Clarence Yanofsky as our tenth Master. Like his predecessors, he conducted the affairs of our Lodge with propriety, and through his vast acquaintance in professional, educational and public life, we were visited and entertained by noted and prominent Masons.<br />
<br />
During his administration, Moses Michael Hays Lodge was signally honored when our own Wor. Ralph J. Cohen was appointed District Deputy Grand Master of the Boston Second Masonic District by M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMKeith Roger Keith], Grand Master. His first Official Visitation to our Lodge on November 7, 1950, will remain an outstanding event in our Lodge's history.<br />
<br />
The succeeding years were bountiful in activity and friendship among our Brethren, with emphasis always on our primary endeavors to promote the basic principles of Freemasonry.<br />
<br />
Our eleventh Master, Bro. Samuel Winetsky, assumed his office with zeal, and with the abundance of candidates knocking at our portals, our officers were kept very busy working two degrees at nearly every communication. These were interspersed, however, with fine socials at our dinners and with a delightful Ladies' Night at the Pine Brook Country Club. Due to the pressure of personal business, Wor. Bro. Winetsky advised that he would not be available for a second term. This precedent of one-year terms has been followed by his successors.<br />
<br />
Bro. Mitchell M. Rosser, our twelfth Master, carried on in the efficient tradition of his predecessors. In the midst of our pleasant activities, we were shocked at the passing of Wor. Joseph Brettler, the second Master and Father of Moses Michael Hays Lodge, on May 20, 1953. Wor. Bro. Brettler left an excellent record of accomplishment in Masonry, and his fidelity to the Craft will long be remembered.<br />
<br />
During Wor. Bro. Rosser's term, Moses Michael Hays Lodge in co-operation with the other Lodges in the Boston Second Masonic District, attended a Spiritual Service at Temple Emeth in South Brookline on November 13, 1953, at which M. W. and Rev. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRoy Thomas S. Roy], Grand Master, delivered the sermon.<br />
<br />
Our Lodge was saddened for the second time in one year at the news of the sudden passing of Wor. Clarence Yanofsky on November 27, 1953. His resourcefulness and friendly nature will always be remembered in and beyond the bounds of our Lodge.<br />
<br />
The dignified and exacting administration of our thirteenth Master, Wor. Maurice Levin, will always be a high light in our history. He provided effective impetus to our Blood Bank Drive with his Red Carnation Brigade, and promptly attended to every demand for blood as well as the other needs of our Brethren. It became his unpleasant task to preside over two Lodges of Sorrow at the passing of our two distinguished Brethren, Wor. Mitchell M. Rosser on January 24, 1954, and R.W. T. Rutherford Edwards, our first Master, on August 9, 1954. The pain of such a striking loss to our Lodge can only be ameliorated by the memory of the priceless contributions in friendship and service which they rendered.<br />
<br />
The genial and striking personality of our fourteenth Master, Wor. Charles T. Copeland, won for him the respect and obedience of his officers and members as he conducted the affairs of our Lodge. He created our Blood Donor Honor Roll and provided us with an entertaining Ladies' Night and Family Party.<br />
<br />
Youth and Drive came to the East of our Lodge with the installation of Bro. Jack A. Winetsky as the fifteenth Master. His dedication and devotion to Moses Michael Hays Lodge were evident as he occupied the various stations as a line officer. His meetings were highlighted by a visit of the Aleppo Temple Shrine Degree Team and by our Pharmacists' Blue Lodge Night on June 5, 1956, when a candidate was raised in long form by a group of pharmacists, all members of Moses Michael Hays Lodge, but without previous officer experience except for our own Wor. Milton Garb, who presided in the East.<br />
<br />
Bro. Maurice Verdun was installed as our sixteenth Master as we proceed to celebrate our Silver Anniversary. His friendliness and sobriety should lead our Lodge to greater accomplishment and usefulness to our Craft.<br />
<br />
Upsetting indeed was the regretful passing of our third Master, Wor. Harry Smith, on January 27, 1957, to whom our twenty-fifth anniversary meant so much. His devoted service to us as Master and Secretary will long be remembered and we shall miss him.<br />
<br />
We are proud of the men who have guided our Lodge to maturity during the past quarter century. We are equally proud of the calibre of men who sought entrance to Freemasonry through Moses Michael Hays Lodge.<br />
<br />
Our present membership totals 490, and we look upon every one of them as a credit to our Masonic endeavors. Their continued ethical participation in the business, educational, charitable and public activities of our communities will reflect tribute to our Lodge.<br />
<br />
In reviewing our accomplishments during the past twenty-five years, our thoughts reflect with reverence on the memory of forty-four of our Brethren who have been called to labor on a Higher Sphere. The influence of their contributions to Masonry should direct us to greater attainments in the days that lie ahead. We have recorded in writing some of the high lights of our history. However, the countless acts of kindness, charity and devotion exemplified by so many of our members throughout the years, much of it unheralded and unsung, will be recorded always in our hearts.<br />
<br />
==== 50TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, MAY 1982 ====<br />
<br />
''1957 - 1982; by R.W. Harold J. Kaswell''<br />
<br />
''For a comprehensive history of Moses Michael Hays Lodge covering the earlier period, please refer to 1957 Mass. 3-17.''<br />
<br />
<blockquote><br />
"When men of good will, possessed of a true Masonic spirit, join their hearts and minds in one common purpose, their labors reflect the true image of our Creator."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
These powerful and meaningful words were written by Worshipful E. Louis Greenblatt, of Blessed Memory, and began the opening paragraph of the History of Moses Michael Hays todge on the occasion of its twenty-fifth anniversary year. We think it fitting and proper, therefore, on the occasion of this, our Fiftieth Anniversary, to dedicate this episode in our lodge's young Masonic career to Worshipful Brother Lou's Memory.<br />
<br />
Elsewhere in this the Fiftieth Anniversary brochure, at the kind suggestion of our Grand Secretary, Right Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLRBeach Robert P. Beach], we are including Worshipful Greenblatt's complete and unabridged history of this new fledgling Lodge, then twenty-five years young. It is interesting to note that in our Grand Lodge proceedings of [[http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MassachusettsYear1957 1957], the histories of six lodges, ours included, are published. Of the other five, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Pentucket Pentucket] Lodge of Lowell celebrated its one hundred fiftieth anniversary, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=JohnAbbot John Abbot] Lodge of Somerville, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Berkshire2 Berkshire] Lodge of Adams, [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountVernon2 Mount Vernon] Lodge of Malden and [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Pequossette Pequossette] Lodge of Watertown, all celebrated their one-hundredth anniversary. Our entrance into the realm of<br />
anniversary celebrations is just beginning.<br />
<br />
The history of our second twenty-five years becomes all the more interesting, especially to this writer, because my own Masonic career began during the administration of our fourteenth Master, Worshipful Charles Copeland. Both Worshipful Jack A. Winetsky and Worshipful Maurice Verdun, the fifteenth and sixteenth Masters respectively, completed that twenty five year period so eloquently portrayed in words by Worshipful E. Louis Greenblatt.<br />
<br />
The English poet and philosopher, Lord Bryce, stated many years ago: ''Every thing which as power to win the obedience and respect of men must have its roots in the past, and that the more slowly every institution has grown, so much the more enduring it is likely to prove.'' And yet, on the other hand, one of our public personalities once made the statement that: ''Nothing is more permanent than change.'' A compromise or balance between these two ideas can, we believe, be found not only in the history of Moses Michael Hays Lodge but in the history of all our Lodges, and of all of Freemasonry as well.<br />
<br />
While our first twenty-five years saw the installation of only sixteen Worshipful Masters, in 1951 Worshipful Samuel Winetsky began a one year term, where previously each officer served in each station for two years. The practice of only one year in each station has continued to the present day, and our second twenty-five year period includes the installation of twenty-three Masters (two having returned for a second separate term), their Wardens and other officers, elected and appointed.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Philip Tasker was elected and installed our 17th Master in 1957 for our 1958 year, and extended an invitation to this writer to become his Inside Sentinel, launching a career that brought about this invitation to present the history of our second twenty-five years.<br />
<br />
We think it fitting and proper at this point, to once again mention an event in the life of Moses Michael Hays Lodge which was included in our first twenty-five years, but which will ever be appropriate in any of this illustrious Masonic Lodge's recorded history.<br />
<br />
ln 1937, a book on the life of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHays Moses Michael Hays] was written and published. It was co-authored by Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAOtherBrothersT#TATSCH.2C_J.28ACOB.29_HUGO_1888-1939 J. Hugo Tatsch], then acting Librarian<br />
and Curator of our Grand Lodge and Worshipful Harry Smith, then presiding Master of Moses Michael Hays Lodge. This book, ''Moses Michael Hays; Merchant, Citizen, Freemason'' is recommended reading for every member of the<br />
Craft, but particularly for members of our Lodge.<br />
<br />
Perhaps the closing paragraph of Worshipful Smith's forword best states, with great pride, our Masonic heritage and our dedication to those Masonic principles. Worshipful Smith stated: <br />
<blockquote><br />
"It is earnestly hoped that this book will inspire the members of Moses Michael Hays Lodge to make our fellowship a loving expression of the worthy citizen, patriot and Freemason whose name it bears, and thus do their part in preserving unsullied the reputation which he attained through to practical application of Masonic tenents in every day life. Quiet, unassuming, tolerant and charitable, Moses Michael Hays left his mark on the communities in which he lived. His name is blessed among those who know of his gentle worth and his sterling character."<br />
</blockquote><br />
A recounting of some of the events of each year beginning with Worshipful Philip Tasker's administration will trace in some manner the growth of our lodge and which we hope will be interesting and enlightening to all.<br />
<br />
From the 490 members on our rolls at the end of our 25th year, our roster now shows a membership of 508. It is interesting to trace the growth and development, the rise and fall of our membership, but our success cannot only be measured in numbers. It was Ralph Waldo Emerson who wrote: "The true test of civilization is not the census, nor the size of the cities, nor the crops - but the kind of men it turns out." And so it is with Moses Michael Hays Lodge and all of Freemasonry.<br />
<br />
During this second twenty-five year period we initiated, crafted, raised and admitted 205 members, and also, 215 of our brethren have been admitted and duly installed in the celestial Lodge above. Our twentieth Master, Worshipful Nathan Sepinuck presided in the East in 1961 when twenty-five new brethren signed our by-laws. Worshipful Jack Winetsky in 1956, Worshipful Maurice Verdun in 1957, and Worshipful Philip Tasker in 1958 were close behind in numbers of new members and in Lodge activity in their respective years.<br />
<br />
During the years just mentioned, and in fact in all of our years, all officers' chairs were filled by sincere and dedicated Masons, each of us learning our lessons well and presenting to our brethren well prepared programs. We "set the craft at work and gave them necessary instruction." But it was not all work and no play. Our ladies'nights, our other social events and programs of good fellowship, our acts of charity, were always and in all ways presented to the satisfaction and the enjoyment of our membership.<br />
<br />
Wor. Robert Jaffe assumed the East in 1959 in what proved to be a most interesting and active year both in numbers of candidates and in happy social events followed by Worshipful Edward Cohen in 1960, perhaps one of our best and most eloquent ritualists and teacher for our candidates and for our young officers.<br />
<br />
Our twenty-first Master, Worshipful Bencion Moskow provided the leadership of our Lodge in 1962 followed by Worshipful Ralph Levine in 1963 and Worshipful Sidney M. Liner in 1964. We note with regret, that Brother Liner did not live to be here with us for our 50th. He passed away on June 25, 1974. But we do record the fact that in this twenty-five year period, only Worshipful Jack Winetsky, Worshipful Sidney M. Liner and Worshipful Peter Amershadian, do not answer to our roll calls today. All other past Masters are with us and so many of them are still able to be of service to our lodge programs and to our young line ol officers.<br />
<br />
With an eloquent and moving installation of officers ceremony, performed by Worshipful Maurice B. lrvin, this writer was duly installed as the twenty-fourth Master in 1965. He was followed by worshipful J. I. W. Moskow in 1966 and Worshipful Mitchell E. Phillips in 1967. Worshipful Kaswell served as District Deputy Grand Secretary in 1966 and 1967 under R. W. Irving Bornstein, District Deputy Grand Master for the Boston [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston2_1927-2003 Second Masonic District]. Worshipful Phillips served as District Deputy Grand Secretary in 1970 and 1971. Our 27th Master, Worshipful Theodore Jaffe, brother of Worshipful Robert Jaffe (1959) served in the East in 1968. It is worthy of note that these two Jaffe brothers are the sons of our late Brother Charles J. Jaffe who was our first Chaplain and a Charter Member of Moses Michael Hays lodge in 1931.<br />
<br />
On the evening of Tuesday, May 7, 1968, a most unusual Masonic program took place under the capable direction of worshipful Theodore Jaffe. It included a visit from one of our illustrious past Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWJohnson Whitfield W. Johnson], who was for that evening officially representing the then Presiding Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBooth Thomas A. Booth]. The occasion of this visit was to fraternally greet and spend a truly Masonic evening with a large and most distinguished group of Masonic personalities who travelled great distances to be with us.<br />
<br />
In 1969 we installed worshipful Frederick H. Goldstein who was then followed by Worshipful Joseph Ganz in 1970 as our 29th Master. "Freemasonry unites men of every country, sect and opinion." In this case, it also happily provided opportunities for family fellowship as well.<br />
<br />
In 1970, Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJaynes Herbert H. Jaynes], then Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts saw fit to appoint and to install this writer as District Deputy Grand Master for the Boston [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston2_1927-2003 Second Masonic District]. This appointment represents an important event in the history of our lodge, an event which we look back upon with great pride and pleasure. During this two year_term, both Worshipful Joseph Ganz and his worthy successor, Worshipful Charles W. Weinfeld served as our 29th and 30th Masters. Worshipful Weinfeld is today our Treasurer, a dedicated and competent Past Master, another pillar of strength along with our Secretary, Worshipful Robert O. Rittenberg, about whom more will be mentioned later.<br />
<br />
Worshipful James Epstein became our 31st Master and later on was to become our 39th Master in 1980. Worshipful Jim also served as Treasurer in 1978 and has been and is one of our dedicated and devoted Past Masters.<br />
<br />
1973 saw the beginning of plans which eventually led to the relocation of Moses Michael Hays Lodge in our present home in Needham, Massachusetts. It was in 1974, during the Masonic year of Worshipful Donald L. Hoffman that the move to Needham was finally completed. For many of us, the parting with our Grand Lodge Temple home, with its antiquity and its pleasant memories, was not a happy occasion. But looking forward, our junior officers and our younger members find much in Needham to inspire new Masonic programs and new Masonic activities.<br />
<br />
In Worshipful Kaplan's administration, a "Night of Tiibute" was held for our own Worshipful Charles W. Weinfeld who contributed so much to the Twenty-fifth anniversary Celebration of the founding of the State of Israel. This gala affair was held at the Statler Hilton Hotel in Boston on the night of October 13, 1973, at which time a most distinguished group of his friends, both Masonic and non-Masonic were present to do him honor. 1973 also included a member of other incidents which are worthy of note as we tell the story of Moses Michael Hays Lodge in its second twenty-five years. ln July, our beloved Tieasurer, Worshipful E. Louis Greenblatt, Past Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Germania Germania] Lodge and Charter Member of Moses Michael Hays Lodge, one<br />
of our founding fathers, was called to our celestial Lodge above. His passing was a tragic event in the lives of so many of us who knew him well. A special memorial service was held at our regular meeting on Tuesday, March 11, 1975 during which time a portrait of Worshipful Brother Lou was unvelied in our Masonic apartments. The inscription beneath this portrait reads: ''Worshipful E Louis Greenblatt, 1901-1973. The simplicity of his life, the depth of his philosophy and the strength of his fellowship, made this a gentler wiser and kinder world. His memory lives as a perpetual light to all his Brethren. Moses Michael Hays Lodge, March 1975.''<br />
<br />
It was during this year that Right Worshipful Aaron R. Davison, Past Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountScopus Mount Scopus] Lodge, was elected as an affiliated Past Master, bringing to our Lodge a set of Masonic values seldom equalled in Masonic tradition. Right Worshipful Brother Aaron, Past District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAMalden7_1927-2003 Malden 7th] Masonic District, extremely active in Scottish Rite Masonry, recipient of the Joseph Warren Medal for Distinguished Service and recently elected to that coveted position of 33rd Degree Mason, is now our close friend and brother.<br />
<br />
Worshipful David H. Jacobs and Worshipful Marshall I. Karp, our auditor, carried on our traditions in our new home in 1975 and 1976 as our 34th and 35th Worshipful Masters, respectively.<br />
<br />
At this point, we are proud to set down for the record that our son, Norman J. Kaswell was duly installed as our 36th Worshipful Master in 1977. One cannot easily describe the thrill and the honor of performing the rites of installation of Brother Norman and all the other officers on that memorable occasion.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Harry L. Ginesky, our present director of our Masonic Blood Donor Program, became our 37th Master in 1978 and was responsible along with his dedicated slate of officers, for a busy and interesting year. One of his interesting and happy activities which extended over a number of years was his annual program for our children and grandchildren to celebrate our season holidays. Worshipful Harry is and has been everyone's favorite friend and brother.<br />
<br />
A memorable and highly significant event in the life of our lodge took place on June 27, 1978. Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMelanson Arthur H. Melanson], then presiding Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, together with a most distinguished group of Grand Lodge Officers, visited Moses Michael Hays Lodge in Needham. This was a special communication for the purpose of uniting Moses Michael Hays Lodge and [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Putnam Putnam] Lodge of Cambridge. Through the combined efforts of Worshipful Frank Rudzinsky, then Presiding Master of Putnam Lodge together with Worshipful Gilbert A. Kaplan, then Secretary and Past Master of Putnam Lodge and a committee of presiding officers and Past Masters of Moses Michael Hays Lodge plans were made for the development of this merger of both our lodges.<br />
<br />
As we continue to record the events in our Lodge's colorful history, once again Worshipful Norman J. Kaswell (Master in 1977) assumed the East in 1979, the first time a Master presided in two separate non-successive years. He was then followed by Worshipful James Epstein in 1980 who had also served as Master in 1972. Both of these now fully experienced Masters carried out their duties and responsibilities in keeping with the high tradition of our Lodge for service to our brethren and full dedication to the Craft.<br />
<br />
Our presiding Master in 1981, the year that completed our fiftieth year, was Worshipful Jason Orlov, a Past Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aberdour Aberdour] Lodge and one of our most active and energetic affiliated Past Masters. His efforts in bringing this memorable period to a close and preparing the way for his successor, Worshipful Ronald A. Koven are greatly appreciated and admired by those of us who had the opportunity to work closely with him.<br />
<br />
Worshipful Ronald Koven was installed our 41st Master on December 12, 1981 successfully beginning our next twenty-five years. His sincere and dedicated efforts in the planning and the completion of our fiftieth anniversary celebration deserve the commendation of all our brethren.<br />
<br />
An attempt is hereby made to include in the records a number of changes in the two important elected positions, those of our Secretary and our Treasurer during these years when we unhappily lost both our Secretary and our Treasurer. Brother Sidney R. Jackson, our Secretary,<br />
passed away in March of 1969 at which time Worshipful Harold J. Kaswell became our acting Secretary, and in 1970 was duly elected to continue in that important position. In 1971, as our Junior Past Master, Worshipful Joseph Ganz became our Secretary and served well until our present Secretary, Worshipful Robert O. Rittenberg, assumed that desk in 1974. Worshipful Rittenberg, an affiliated Past Master from [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=HydePark Hyde Park] Lodge, has just completed a two year term as District Deputy Grand Secretary under Right Worshipful Robert L. Pann, District Deputy Grand Master of our [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MABoston2_1927-2003 Boston Second] Masonic District. No more devoted or efficient or knowledgeable Masonic Secretary could ever be found in our ranks or in the ranks of all Masonry in this jurisdiction.<br />
<br />
Upon the passing of our Tieasurer, Worshipful E. Louis Greenblatt, Right Worshipful Harold J. Kaswell assumed the position of Treasurer until Worshipful Marshall Karp, our auditor, was elected Treasurer in 1977. Worshipful James Epstein was eiected Treasurer in 1978, after which Worshipful Charles Weinfeld was elected and is today our present dedicated, efficient and hard working keeper of "Stock and other Properties of the Lodge."<br />
<br />
It is important that we note here and now that joining with Right Worshipful Aaron R. Davison as an affiliated Past District Deputy, we proudly welcomed Right Worshipful Raynard Braverman, Past Master of Hyde Park Lodge, and District Deputy Grand Master of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAHydePark25_1927-2003 Hyde Park 25th] Masonic District as an affiliate.<br />
Past District Deputy. We also include in our ranks: Worshipful Arthur Katz of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Aberdour Aberdour] Lodge, Worshipful Robert Bloomenthal of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=IsaacParker Isaac Parker] Lodge and of course, Worshipful Jason S. Orlov recently mentioned.<br />
<br />
While it is true that many of the events and incidents in the life of Moses Michael Hays todge during our second twenty-five years are mentioned around and in conjunction with our Worshipful Masters, we cannot let this opportunity pass without including in these presents some of the important, active and dedicated Master Masons who coniributed so much to the strength and to the activities of our Lodge, activities which continue from year to year.<br />
<br />
As Worshipful Masters come and go, the work of members such as Brother Simon Koopman, who with Brother Milton Berger and Brother David Sherter contributed so much and still contribute so much to what was initially called our "Happy Day Fund." This warm and friendly activity which started early in our Lodge's history, is now known as the E. Louis Greenblatt Happy Day Fund, and Brother Koopman has for all these years, dedicated his efforts in so many ways to help keep this important activity vibrant and meaningful.<br />
<br />
For many years, Brother Maurice "Clancy" Silverstein has devoted his energies and his talents to the growth and strength of our Masonic Blood Donor Program. It is not possibli to set down here sufficient tribute to him for his years of effort in this important Lodge function. Upon his retirement from this program, his work was taken over by Worshipful Harry Ginesky, another of our active and dedicated Past Masters. We must also mention devoted members such as Brother Tlerman Aborn' our electrician (for many years with the able assistance of Brother Isadore Beresen), Brother Gilbert S. Burr, our Marshal and legal advisor, Brother Leonard Epstein, who like so many other dedicated Masons, is always there when the Master needs him.<br />
<br />
At the beginning of our second twenty-five year period, our Tyler was Brother Samuel D. Basch, our very first Tyler and Charter Member. Brother Basch is no longer with us. He was succeeded by Brother Maurice Koopman and them followed by Brother Lewis Park, three most necessary and dedicated members of our Lodge, who each in his own way, contributed so much to our "history".<br />
<br />
Dedicated families are always so important and we must mention at least two of them at this point. We proudly name Brother Cyrus Jacobs and family, and how could we not include Brother Max Epstein and family? These are but two of the many family groups that add so much to the strength and the colorful history of our fraternity.<br />
<br />
No history, either in our first 25 years or in our second, could be complete without a warm and fond word for Worshipful Maurice B. Leven, Past Master. His dedication and devotion to our Iodge and to our Craft can never be adequately set down in these few words.<br />
<br />
It is also extremely important that we record the names of the following brethren who were singularly honored by being awarded perhaps one of the most coveted honors in Massachusetts Masonry, the Joseph warren Medal for Distinguished service. These Masons are Right worshipful Brothers Aaron R. Davison and Harold J. Kaswell and Worshipful Gilbert A. Kaplan. We must add to this list Worshipful E. Louis Greenblatt who received this award in 1965.<br />
<br />
The continuity of our Lodge is assured! We record here that our present Inside Sentinel, Brother Gerald Burg is a third generation member of our Lodge. His father is Harold A. Burg, and his Grandfather was Morris Burg, a Charter Member. Our present Senior Steward, Brother Robert A. Coval is also a third generation member. His father, Brother Donald S. Coval, and his grandfather, Br. Julius W. Cohen, were members of long standing in the history of this branch of our fraternity.<br />
<br />
No words, no time or space can ever properly record the many deeds of dedication and service performed by our officers, both elected and appointed, and by our members. Their acts of kindness and brotherhood will always be a part of the memories of all of us who were and are fortunate enough to be in the mainstream of Masonic thought and activity.<br />
<br />
We close this document with the full knowledge that twenty-five years hence, and fifty years and more other chapters will be added. The Spirit of Freemasonry continues, acknowledging the universal Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. This honored fraternity of ours perpetually erects a Temple of Humanity. As stated in the Grand Lodge of Bulletin of the State of Iowa issued in March, 1926, "within its protecting walls, all mankind may find shelter, warmth and spiritual sustenance. For such is the work of the craft; always will they be found<br />
building ... building ... building."<br />

<br />
''From New England Craftsman, Vol. XXXI, No. 12, August 1936, Page 236:''<br />
<br />
A visit was made Sunday. August 23, by Harry Smith, Master of Moses Michael Hays Lodge. A. F. & A. M.. of Boston, to the grave of Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMHays Moses Michael Hays], at Newport. R. I.<br />

==== 25TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY, MAY 1972 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1972-81:''<br />
<br />
''By Right Worshipful Albert M. Rudman.''<br />
<br />
In December of 1946 a group of Master Masons met at the home of Bro. Dr. Charles Dickerman in Somerville, Massachusetts, under the direction of R. W. Seward E. Nichols and Bro. Louis Stone. The idea of forming a new Lodge in Somerville, Massachusetts, brought this group together, and the thought was thoroughly discussed with complete unaninimity and enthusiasm. It was agreed that our main purpose would be channeled so that all in the area of Somerville and surrounding cities and towns who expressed a desire to become members of the craft could do so in complete confidence of unbiased consideration.<br />
<br />
This original group was expanded in size and subsequently discussed all ramifications of forming of a new Lodge, the responsibilities involved both present and future, that devolved on each member and the financing of the Lodge. At this subsequent meeting it was suggested that the Lodge be named "Freedom Lodge".<br />
<br />
A further organizational meeting was held under the direction of R. W. Seward E. Nichols, who outlined the basic reasons why it was felt that it was necessary to consider a petition for a new Lodge. All present enthusiastically endorsed the idea and pledged to support the proposed petition.<br />
<br />
On Thursday, January 23, 1947 at 8 P.M. at the Gilman Square Masonic Apartments, Somerville, Massachusetts, a formulating meeting of the Lodge was held and all those Master Masons seeking charter membership were invited to be present and sign the petition to the Grand Lodge. The petition was signed by many Master Masons. Requests continued to come in from Masons who desired to be included as charter members as the inspiration and interest increased for the proposed new Lodge. A meeting of charter members was held on February 6, 1947 and the petition was signed by 148 Masons.<br />
<br />
While waiting for approval of the petition for dispensation, considerable time was devoted to the selection of potential officers who were thoroughly advised in advance of the obligation they would assume, and in due time a tentative line was agreed upon contingent upon our petition being granted. A period of intense activities culminated in the institution of Freedom Lodge U. D. on March 6, 1947 in the Gilman Square Apartments, Somerville, Massachusetts. Many invited guests were present from all the Lodges in the Somerville and Arlington 6th Masonic District as well as many from the Metropolitan Boston Area.<br />
<br />
R. W. Austin C. Woodside, District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASomerville6_1927-2003 Somerville 6th Masonic District] read the dispensation from Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWragg Samuel Holmes Wragg], Grand Master, giving the petitioners authority to hold a Lodge in Somerville, Massachusetts, under the name of "Freedom" and to make Freemasons therein according to the Ancient Customs with R. W. Seward E. Nichols as Master; R. W. John A. Daniels, Sr. Warden; and Wor. Robert W. Young as Jr. Warden.<br />
<br />
R.W. Bro. Woodside asked the petitioners if they still concurred with their original selection of officers as read and they readily agreed. The District Deputy Grand Marshal was then directed to conduct the Worshipful Master and Wardens to their stations. The Worshipful Master announced his appointments and they with the elected Treasurer and Secretary assumed their respective stations. The Marshal then made the official proclamation and Freedom Lodge came officially into being. The officers designated to serve were: R.W. Seward E. Nichols, Master; R.W. John A. Daniels, Senior Warden; Wor. Robert W. Young, Junior Warden; Bro. George Davis, Treasurer; Wor. Donald H. Hatheway, Secretary; Bro. Louis K. Wrolff, Chaplain; Bro. Oscar Turran, Marshal; Bro. Louis Stone, Senior Deacon; Bro. Walter M. Cobe, Junior Deacon; Bro. Nathan N. Cohen, Senior Steward; Bro. Arthur B. Savel, Junior Steward; Bro. Albert M. Rudman, Inside Sentinel; Bro. Harold O. Phelan, Organist; Bro. Warren D. Russell, Tyler. This meeting was full of excitement and was closed at 10:10 P. M.<br />
<br />
Thf ensuing weeks and months were busy ones for the new line of officers in preparing themselves to the aspirations and goals set by our Charter Members. Weeks of study and rehearsal by a devoted line of officers took place culminating in the reception of the first class for the Entered Apprentice Degree. On April 16, 1947 our first Special Communication was held with R. W. Seward E. Nichols presiding in the East. Brothers Kenneth Lawrence Dickerman, Sherman Earle Levinson, Benjamin Blesoff and John Yale Hodos were initiated Entered Apprentices.<br />
<br />
At our fourth Regular Communication on June 5, 1947, it was recommended that an Anniversary Fund be established for properly celebrating the 25th anniversary of Freedom Lodge and that the sum of $100 be set aside each year until the anniversary is observed. This recommendation was unanimously passed. As a result of this fund, tonight we are celebrating our 25th Anniversary.<br />
<br />
The first class of Master Masons was raised at our third Special Communication on June 19, 1947 and the charge given to the candidates was by R. W. William R. Gilman, Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountScopus Mt. Scopus] Lodge and District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAMalden7_1927-2003 Maiden 7th Masonic District]. We had a turnout of 222 brethren at this meeting. It was one to long remember.<br />
<br />
At our sixth Regular Communication under dispensation our Worshipful Master announced that Freedom Lodge was to be constituted on December 22, 1947, this date having been chosen by the Most Worshipful Grand Master. Committees were appointed to arrange for the constitution of the Lodge and the By-Laws Committee submitted a complete draft of the proposed By-Laws of Freedom Lodge, this draft previously being sent to all members. After much discussion the By-Laws were adopted as the By-Laws of Freedom Lodge subject to the approval of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge. The Lodge selected as its seal, subject to the approval of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, a round seal having as its center motif the "torch of freedom" borne aloft by an uplifted hand.<br />
<br />
R. W. Seward E. Nichols had Brothers Louis Bresnick, Harry Ordesky and Benjamin Rabinovitz presented to the East and expressed appreciation for their helpful suggestions and artistic labors in preparing the design for the proposed seal of Freedom Lodge. The proposed By-Laws of Freedom Lodge as adopted November 6, 1947 had been approved by the Committee on Charters and By-Laws of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge.<br />
<br />
During the under dispensation year from March 6, 1947 to December 22, 1947 fourteen applicants for the degrees were accepted and eight raised. The average attendance while under dispensation was ninety-two for each meeting. During this period we had four affiliations.<br />
<br />
December 22, 1947 was a marvelous day in the annals of Freedom Lodge, as this was the day that the Lodge was constituted. The ceremonies of the evening were preceded by a dinner attended by the Grand Lodge Officers and many guests. ''(1947 Mass. 453-457)'' Most Worshipful Samuel Holmes Wragg, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, was accompanied by a distinguished Suite of Grand Lodge Officers and invited guests comprising a total of 28. The Most Worshipful Grand Master and his Suite entered the Lodge-room at 8:00 P.M., passing through the ranks of charter members and officers who had assumed their stations. The charter and the names of each charter member were read by R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFHilton Frank H. Hilton], Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge. In a solemn and beautiful ceremony the Lodge was constituted according to the Ancient usages of the craft. The installation ceremony was concluded by a reading of Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRevere Paul Revere]'s charges by R.W. Frank H. Hilton. The Lodge was closed at 10:00 P.M. Attendance 307.<br />
<br />
On January 5, 1948 R. W. Seward E. Nichols was nominated for honorary membership, he being the first Brother of Freedom Lodge to receive this honor.<br />
<br />
The Lodge was privileged on January 29, 1948 to participate in a special meeting to honor R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEHamilton Eugene B. Hamilton], a charter member of Freedom Lodge and Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=JohnAbbot John Abbot] Lodge who had been appointed Deputy Grand Master of the Grand Lodge for the ensuing year. This meeting was held in conjunction with John Abbot Lodge. Special guests of the evening were Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMKeith Roger Keith], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, and a distinguished group of Grand Lodge Officers. On behalf of the officers and members of Freedom Lodge and John Abbot Lodge, the Deputy Grand Master's Jewel was presented to R. W. Eugene B. Hamilton. The Most Worshipful Grand Master on behalf of the Grand Lodge pinned the Henry Price Medal for outstanding achievements in Masonry on the breast of R. W. Brother Hamilton.<br />
<br />
The year passed along and on February 5, 1948 honorary membership in Freedom Lodge was granted to Brother Seward E. Nichols. At this meeting a petition was presented to the Lodge nominating M. W. Samuel Holmes Wragg, R.W. Eugene B. Hamilton, R.W. John A. Daniels, Wor. Robert W. Young, Wor. Donald H. Hatheway and Bro. Warren D. Russell for honorary membership in recognition of their assistance in the instituting of the Lodge. At subsequent meetings all were elected to Honorary Membership in the Lodge.<br />
<br />
During this year the first death occurred in the ranks of Freedom Lodge members; Bro. Benjamin Sorrel, a charter member, passed away on April 28, 1948.<br />
<br />
At the June 3, 1948 meeting we were privileged to have our first Fraternal Visitation by R. W. Robert J. Scott, District Deputy Grand Master of the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAArlington6_1927-2003 Arlington 6th Masonic District], accompanied by Wcr. Currier M. Thompson, District Deputy Grand Marshal and Wor. Robert J. Ray, District Deputy Grand Secretary, and a distinguished Suite. On this occasion he was escorted into the Lodge by R.W. Samuel H. Lewis as Chairman. Also at this meeting the Nominating Committee's report was accepted and R.W. John A. Daniels was elected Master for the ensuing year.<br />
<br />
It must be said that R.W. Seward E. Nichols guided the Lodge through its first busy year with a steady, experienced hand, instilling confidence in the officers by patient and sincere leadership. The Membership Committee was carefully guided in their work and were admonished to maintain a high standard of character in their recommendations.<br />
<br />
With the passing of our year under R.W. Seward E. Nichols, on September 2, 1948 R.W. John A. Daniels was installed Master under the direction of R. W. Samuel H. Lewis and assisted by Wor. Leo Stiglitz as Installing Marshal. Under the new Master the Lodge began to strengthen its roots. Membership applications continued in great numbers and the Lodge flourished with a new life under the diligent work of the officers and committees.<br />
<br />
Fraternal visitations by the Master and Wardens to local and metropolitan Lodges further cemented relations between the established Lodges and the new one.<br />
<br />
Many notable communications were enjoyed during 1948, each of which shared equally in achieving the aspirations of the new Lodge. As his term drew to a close, R. W. John A. Daniels noted with pride the excellent ritualistic progress made by the officers who two short years previously were on the side lines of their mother Lodges.<br />
<br />
The installation of R. W. Robert W. Young on September 29, 1949 was highlighted by R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLNRay Norman A. Ray], Past District Deputy Grand Master for the Arlington 6th Masonic District as Installing Master and R. W. Seward E. Nichols as Installing Marshal. This year was somewhat unusual as our Worshipful Master was not only Master of Freedom Lodge, but at the same time District Deputy Grand Master for the Arlington 6th Masonic District.<br />
<br />
On February 2, 1950, at our third degree raising, the newly installed electrically illuminated emblem was used. After the work was completed, Bro. Arthur B. Savel was escorted to the East and R. W. Robert W. Young thanked him for the many things he had done for Freedom Lodge; the presentation of the emblems being the most recent gift. In response Brother Savel extended to the other Lodges occupying the Apartments the privilege of using the emblem in their work. R. W. Robert W. Young's year was full of great activity. The membership continued to rise and many special meetings were held during the year. The programming for each meeting was excellent. It was an ambitious year for our Worshipful Master.<br />
<br />
With the installation of Bro. Louis Stone on September 27, 1950, the first lower line officer from the original designated line of Freedom Lodge became its Master. By this event the Lodge truly felt it became of age. The period of stewardship by the original Master and Wardens had been ably and sincerely served. From that time on the Lodge was on its own.<br />
<br />
The sacred trust was resolutely kept, and the months that followed were outstanding. Many distinguished Masons signed the visitors' register that year. Some came to be honored and others to speak or perform degree work. Bro. George Fingold, a former Assistant Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts honored the Lodge on December 20, 1950 by his presence.<br />
Our first Past Masters Night was held on January 4, 1951 under the capable direction of R.W. Seward E. Nichols. It was an evening long to be remembered by all.<br />
<br />
On May 3, 1951 Wor. Leo Stiglitz was nominated for Honorary Membership and elected on June 7, 1951. This was a year of overwhelming activity. The applications for new membership continued to rise and as we closed the year on August 31, 1951 we had an average attendance at our regular Communications of 170 and at the Special Communications of 70 and a membership of 3 11. Wor. Louis Stone guided the Lodge to further heights in local Freemasonry.<br />
<br />
The Past Masters who followed Wor. Louis Stone during the past quarter century are: Wor. Walter M. Cobe, 1951; Wor. Nathan N. Cohen, 1952; Wor. Arthur Savel, 1953; R.W. Albert M. Rudman, 1954; Wor. Oscar Turran, 1955; R.W. Herbert W. Rosen, 1956; Wor. Irving I. Shneider, 1957; Wor. Taft Sandler, 1958; Wor. William E. Kepnes, 1959; Wor. George Schwartz, 1960; Wor. Herbert D. Abramson, 1961; Wor. Ira B. Gordon, 1962; Wor. Burton Gilman, 1963; Wor. Leon W. Freeman, 1964; Wor. Jacob Gold, 1965; Wor. Paul<br />
E. Rubin, 1966; Wor. HermanNewburg, 1967; Wor. Nathaniel Lenson, 1968; Wor. Lawrence Kepnes, 1969; Wor. Morris E. Rosenberg, 1970; Wor. Stanley M. Finkelstein, 1971.<br />
<br />
To these men Freedom Lodge owes a debt of gratitude for their devotion and dedication during their respective terms as Master. Each contributed substantially to the continuous growth of our Lodge and his leadership invariably left a standard of accomplishment that his successor strived to maintain and build upon. Each Master to date has left his stamp of accomplishment by which Freedom Lodge became richer each year in Masonic and moral strength. The bonds that tie our Lodge to the craft in general and to our neighbors in particular are firm and unyielding.<br />
<br />
We have been blessed with visits from many outstanding Masons: M. W. Samuel H. Wragg who honored us by accepting Honorary Membership in Freedom Lodge; M. W. Roger Keith; M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMWJohnson Whitfield W. Johnson]; M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMRoy Thomas S. Roy]; M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMAJenkins Andrew G. Jenkins] and M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMBooth Thomas A. Booth]; as well as Masters of local and metropolitan Lodges over the past quarter century.<br />
<br />
The succeeding years demonstrated the growth and confidence which enrich our record of accomplishments. As each Master assumed the East he played a notable part in the history of Freedom Lodge in cementing friendship and fellowship with our fellowmen. Their accomplishments and the honors bestowed upon Freedom Lodge over the years were many. If I were to write them all they would be too numerous to mention. However, I would be remiss in my duties if I did not mention some of the highlights. In 1951 we enjoyed many speakers of note, among whom was Hon. Bro. Elijah B. Adlow, Chief Justice of the Municipal Court of the City of Boston; Wor. Walter M. Cobe will not be forgotten because each charge he gave to the candidate was a masterpiece of Masonic lore. The following year Freedom Lodge members were privileged to hear as our guest speaker the Hon. John F. Kennedy, then Congressman from Massachusetts. We are all aware he became the 35th President of the United States. He was cut down in the midst of his usefulness as our President on November 22, 1963.<br />
<br />
The year 1953 witnessed the first public installation when Wor. Arthur B. Savel was installed. During this year our seventh anniversary was celebrated. Each regular meeting during the year was dedicated to a Past Master of Freedom Lodge.<br />
<br />
For the records it must be noted that each Brother who attended Wor. Brother Arthur's meetings well knew that when he announced before the degree work that the meeting would close at a certain time, it was invariably closed at that time.<br />
<br />
In 1954 under R. W. Albert M. Rudman some of the regular communications were dedicated to "Medford Night", our eighth anniversary and charter members' night. It was during this year that further honor was bestowed upon a member of Freedom Lodge. Bro. David B. Nissenbaum was appointed Clerk of the District Court of Somerville by the Honorable Governor, Brother Christian A. Herter.<br />
<br />
It was a year of accomplishment by our gift of blood to the Masonic Blood Bank. Under the leadership of Bro. Albert H. Barr more than 300 pints of blood were donated by our Brethren. A record never equalled. As this year closed, it also ushered out the original line of officers elected into office at our institution. As 1955 rolled out, R. W. Albert M. Rudman went out as Master of the Lodge and became the second Secretary of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
When Wor. Oscar Turran assumed the East, it brought in a new era as he was the first officer to be appointed by a Master of Freedom Lodge. Under the regime of R.W. Herbert W. Rosen the year of 1956 saw Perfection Lodge No. 486 F. & A.M. of Detroit, Michigan pay Freedom Lodge a Fraternal Visitation. They exemplified the first and second section of the Master Mason degree in Due and Ancient Form in full regalia. This was an evening never to be forgotten. It was also during this year that Freedom Lodge celebrated its tenth anniversary. This year closed the first decade of Freedom Lodge. The contributions made by the men who served during the first ten<br />
years made a permanent impact on the life of our Lodge. Their outstanding efforts have blazed a trail in the Masonic life of our community.<br />
<br />
Wor. Irving I. Shneider was the first Brother to assume the East, in 1957, who was raised in Freedom Lodge. His ritual was outstanding and he was a delight to watch and hear.<br />
<br />
The years continued to pass as each succeeding Master of the Lodge devoted his time and energy to the building of Freedom Lodge. In 1959 Wor. Taft Sandler raised his two sons, Brothers Harris Sandler and Louis Sandler, to the degree of Master Mason. It was an evening of joy not only to Wor. Bro. Taft, but to every member of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
When Wor. William E. Kepnes assumed the East he brought about many new innovations, such as a new type of Communication, a weekend away and social events that previous Masters never thought of. His was a year full of vibrant activity pointing toward the younger element of our Lodge. Of course, our old-timers enjoyed every minute of it.<br />
<br />
The year 1960 was further honored by our Grand Master, Most Worshipful Laurence E. Eaton, when he appointed R. W. Herbert William Rosen, District Deputy Grand Master for the Arlington 6th Masonic District. He was received in Freedom Lodge on his first Fraternal Visitation on February 2, 1961, accompanied by Wor. John L. MacGregor, District Deputy Grand Marshal and R. W. Albert M. Rudman, District Deputy Grand Secretary. R.W. Bro. Rosen was the first District Deputy Grand Master appointed from Freedom Lodge.<br />
<br />
In 1960 Wor. George Schwartz was installed Master and even though there were very few candidates during his regime, he contributed much to the building of Freedom Lodge.<br />
<br />
As the second decade of Freedom Lodge was rapidly passing, Worshipful Brothers Herbert D. Abramson, Ira B. Gordon, Burton Gilman, Leon W. Freeman, Jacob Gold, Paul F. Rubin, Herman Newburg and Nathaniel Lenson, all young and full of vitality, assumed the East of Freedom Lodge and produced many interesting meetings and social functions. They, in their inimitable way, contributed much to the glory of Freedom Lodge.<br />
<br />
They set out to show and prove that Freedom Lodge stood out like a beacon of light to our brethren and at all times inculcating in their brethren the true spirit of fellowship and brotherhood.<br />
<br />
It was during 1967 that Wor. Herman Newburg appointed a committee known as "Historic Committee" to make plans for the 25th anniversary. This year shows the culmination of the efforts of this committee.<br />
<br />
In 1968 great tragedy struck Freedom Lodge; on April 5 R. W. Herbert William Rosen passed suddenly to the Celestial Lodge above. He will long be remembered by all the members of our fraternity.<br />
<br />
Further honors were bestowed on a member of Freedom Lodge when Wor. Albert M. Rudman, who was also a Past Master of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Perfection Perfection] Lodge of Framingham, Massachusetts, was appointed District Deputy Grand Master for the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAMarlboro24_1927-2003 Marlboro 24th Masonic District] by Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMJaynes Herbert H. Jaynes], Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts in 1969.<br />
<br />
Tragedy struck in the summer of 1969 when fire destroyed our Masonic Temple in Gilman Square, Somerville, Massachusetts. All Lodges occupying the Temple had to find new meeting quarters. The Arlington Temple Association looked with favor in having Freedom Lodge meet in the Arlington Masonic Temple at 19 Academy Street, Arlington, Massachusetts.<br />
<br />
Through the hard work of Wor. Lawrence Kepnes, Freedom Lodge received dispensation from the Grand Lodge to meet in Arlington beginning September 1, 1970. The change in venue required changing our regular meeting night to the first Wednesday of the month. All things augured well that year and Wor. Lawrence Kepnes had a fantastic year.<br />
<br />
We recall this year with some regret as the Lodge was informed by Bro. Israel Swirsky, our Treasurer for more than twenty (20) years that he would not assume the office of Treasurer for the ensuing year.<br />
<br />
September 12, 1970 saw the Installation of Wor. Morris E. Rosenberg as Master of Freedom Lodge and Wor. Paul F. Rubin as the third Treasurer. During this year many meetings were held with the Arlington Temple Association concerning permanent quarters in the Temple for Freedom Lodge. It was during the regime of our present Master, Wor. Stanley M. Finkelstein, that Freedom Lodge has seen the fruition of its labors. On December 8, 1971 the Grand Lodge voted unanimously to allow Freedom Lodge to meet in the Arlington Temple changing our charter from the City of Somerville to the Town of Arlington and to change our seal and meeting night to fully conform to our activities. Also in this twenty-fifth year, Freedom Lodge honored its charter members by granting them Life Membership in the Lodge with all the rights and privileges thereto pertaining. Freedom Lodge is about to enter upon a new era of accomplishment.<br />
<br />
We now come to the present moment in the history of Freedom Lodge. Time waits for no man; it is temporary and elusive. As we glance back over the past quarter century with humility we remember the pleasant memories of the past; the instructive and interesting meetings expounding the beautiful lessons taught in Masonry; the initiation of new Brothers into our mysteries, adding link after link to the chain of Brotherhood.<br />
<br />
But now our faces turn to new horizons and new opportunities to serve the craft and our fellow-man. And so too, as we look back, we remember the sad occasions in which we paid our last farewell to those of our Brethren who have been called to the Celestial Lodge above. These afford serious and solemn thoughts to the rational and thinking mind and to stimulate us to perfect ourselves for the work which they have begun.<br />
<br />
It is our fervent hope that in the next twenty-five years those who follow us will continue our earnest efforts to build a Temple on a firm foundation and- will accept their heritage as a guide for their own future and history. Thus ends the first quarter century on this the third day of May, 1972, being the twenty-fifth Anniversary of the Institution of Freedom Lodge, A.F. & A.M., in Arlington, Massachusetts.<br />

==== CENTENARY HISTORY, MAY 1964 ====<br />
<br />
''From Proceedings, Page 1964-141:''<br />
<br />
''By Worshipful Kingman P. Cass.''<br />
<br />
Tonight is a happy and inspiring event, the One Hundredth Birthday Celebration of William Parkman Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons; but the rich heritage bequeathed to us carries a solemn and continuing challenge as we commence another century.<br />
<br />
May I briefly review some prominent milestones in the history of our Lodge, made possible by that small group of sincere and earnest Masons whom we honor tonight as founders.<br />
<br />
WILLIAM PARKMAN LODGE, ANCIENT FREE AND ACCEPTED MASONS, had its beginning on a winter's evening in January of 1864, when Brother Abijah Thompson, III, owner of the tannery on what is now Manchester Field, invited Dr. William Ingalls, David Skillings, Josiah Stone and Albion Joy to his home on Walnut Street to discuss the formation of a Lodge in Winchester by several who were already members of the Craft.<br />
<br />
They were joined at their next meeting by Brothers Oliver Wellington, Cephas Church, Matthew Oliver and Samuel Bartlett, all Master Masons, and by Edward Boon, Albert Lane and Henry Whitten, initiated elsewhere, but wishing to complete their degrees in the proposed new Lodge.<br />
<br />
This was in February, and with great enthusiasm and prior approval of Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], Esquire, presiding Grand Master at the time, the Committee voted to procure rooms and negotiate a lease for five years in the Lyceum Building on Mount Vernon Street across from our present Apartments. The available second floor assembly-room was small, but whenever inadequate for large meetings, Lyceum Hall could be used on the third floor.<br />
<br />
In due course a petition was drawn up and submitted to the Most Worshipful Grand Master, bearing approval of the District Deputy; and under date of May 9, 1864, a Dispensation was issued over the signature of Most Worshipful William Parkman as Grand Master.<br />
<br />
Albion K. P. Joy was appointed First Master, and Josiah Stone and Abijah Thompson, III, became the First Wardens. The Lodge held its first formal meeting with a complete line of officers in Lyceum Hall on May 10, 1864.<br />
<br />
Many donations of furniture and funds were gratefully received, and one treasured gift which was promptly installed was a Masonic and symbolic chandelier for lighting the center of the new Lodge assembly-room, a token of the friendship and good wishes of [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MountHorebW Mt. Horeb] Lodge in Woburn, which has been previously founded in 1855. As most of you know, the Town of Winchester for many years before its Incorporation in 1850 was known as South Woburn. Our Brother Frederick O. Prince was Chairman of the Town Committee which finally chose the new corporate name of Winchester.<br />
<br />
An examination of our Petition, Dispensation and Charter records brings to light many well-known Winchester names, founders of our Town in business, political, social and religious life. These names have been perpetuated by Town landmarks, such as Skillings Road (our First Chaplain), Thompson Street (our First Junior Warden), and Prince Avenue (Brother Prince was a Charter Member who later moved to Boston and became Mayor of that City.) The former Wadleigh School was named for our first elected Secretary, Brother Edwin A. Wadleigh; Samuel Symmes, Charter Member, was of the Symmes family of Symmes Corner, whose name was given to the adjoining Symmes Road.<br />
<br />
Records of the Secretary during Dispensation refer to the newly formed Lodge as "Parkman Lodge", but the Most Worshipful Grand Master seemed in accord with the eventual idea of giving it his full name, as requested by the petitioners. In fact, he took time to come out to Winchester and witness a Master Mason Degree on October 10, 1864, just before the busy ceremonies of laying the corner-stone for the new Grand Lodge Temple. <br />
<br />
We are very grateful to Brother Donald Houston Rice of Seal Beach, California, third generation of William Parkman members in the Houston-Rice family, for his gift of a diploma in hand-carved frame, issued to his grandfather James Houston dated February 12, 1865, and bearing the signatures of Most Worshipful William Parkman and our first three appointed Officers. History relates that Brother Houston pastured the family cow daily on Winchester Common, but we fear that such practice if pursued today would land Brother Houston in Woburn Court, and not even our Junior Steward (of the Board of Health) could save him.<br />
<br />
If you have not already seen Brother Houston's framed diploma of 1865, you will find it on the left wall as you leave the Lodge Room across the entrance from the Tyler's desk.<br />
<br />
Also there are two photostats of the Winchester Star describing our 50th Anniversary. We have the original copy, bearing the imprint of Judge Littlefield, a former Secretary, but the newsprint paper has become so fragile that we have had these photostats made through the courtesy of Winchester Town Library and Microfilm at Waltham.<br />
<br />
The records of Brother William F. Fitch, pro tern Secretary in the years 1880-81 are in the maroon leather binding on the long lounge table, and were hand-written in scroll and illuminated by him. The illuminated headings are symbolic, and beautifully done, thanks to Brother Fitch's artistic talent.<br />
<br />
One other memento is of special note, namely, the two photograph albums of our founders and early members.<br />
<br />
Finally, on June 14, 1865 our Charter was granted by the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, and the Constitution, Dedication, and Installation of Officers took place in Lyceum Hall on June 22, 1865. Most Worshipful William Parkman, his Officers and Distinguished Guests came out from Boston by special train, and with visiting Masons from Woburn, Medford and other nearby communities, over three hundred Masons were assembled. Brother Wadleigh, our Secretary, wrote that "the halls and stairways were decorated with evergreen, and choice bouquets of flowers shed their sweet fragrance in great abundance". After the ceremonies, the record states that all repaired to the Banquet rooms, where sumptuous and adequate "provision was made for their inner wants". The Most Worshipful presented the hand-wrought silver Officers' jewels which are in use to this day.<br />
<br />
In 1880 it was felt that the Lodge had outgrown its facilities in the Lyceum Building, and plans were made to move across the street to our present location at 1 Mt. Vernon Street. This building was then known as the Brown and Stanton Block, and a series of entertainments and donations large and small enabled the moving plans to materialize.<br />
<br />
So on January 14, 1881 another special train was chartered from Boston. This seems to have been the elegant mode of travel in those days. Our staunch friend, Most Worshipful William Parkman, headed a party of Masons, stopping at Medford for the presiding Grand Master, Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Samuel Crocker Lawrence], who officiated at the dedication of our present Lodge rooms. All enjoyed a wonderful time, and (difficult to believe in these waning days of the Boston and Maine), the Boston and Lowell Railroad donated the train ride and gave us a receipted bill, and this is so recorded by our Secretary.<br />
<br />
No particular note seems to have been taken on the 25th Anniversary in 1889, but in that year the Lodge lost a very earnest and enthusiastic member, Brother Frederic Winsor, M.D., who passed away in Bermuda, and was buried there with unusual honors. He was widely known and respected in Winchester, and very active in Town affairs. In the Civil War he was Surgeon of the 49th Massachusetts Regiment, and after the War, gave his Army Officer's sword to our Lodge, and it was used for years by the Tyler. His son Robert later presented a finely engraved sword to take its place, and was gratefully given his father's sword in return. The second Winsor sword is the one presently in use by our Tyler.<br />
<br />
The next twenty-five years from 1889 to 1914 showed continuous and healthy progress. Membership almost tripled from 99 to 295. On May 26, 1914 an elaborate Banquet and Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration was held in the Town Hall. Most of the space in the "Winchester Star", our local newspaper, that week was given over to a detailed account of that event, and pictures of the Masonic notables who attended. The late Wor. Ernest W. Hatch was Master, and was assisted by Brother J. Churchill Hindes, presently a Life Member of this Lodge, as Master of Ceremonies. His Excellency, Governor and Brother Samuel W. McCall, was on the Committee of Arrangements.<br />
<br />
1920 saw the founding of Mystic Valley Lodge, whose first presiding Master was R. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWBelcher William M. Belcher], Master of William Parkman Lodge in 1897-98. Then the Chapter was organized, and the Eastern Star, Rainbow Girls and DeMolay rounded out our Masonic group at 1 Mt. Vernon Street.<br />
<br />
In 1925 Wor. William Walbridge gave us the beautiful glass bell which you see here tonight, modelled in the shape of the Liberty Bell at Philadelphia, and used in our Master Mason Degree at the hour of twelve.<br />
<br />
In 1937-38, looking forward to the 75th Anniversary and the opportunity to expand and modernize with a change of building ownership, we moved our Banquet Hall and kitchen to the second floor. The former dining area became our present Lounge. On May 16, 1939, the late Wor. W. Allan Wilde as Master and Wor. Kingman P. Cass as Anniversary Chairman greeted Most Worshipful [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMPerry Joseph Earl Perry] and Guests at a Banquet and Dance in Metcalf Hall of the Unitarian Church, once again a milestone in the progress of the Lodge.<br />
<br />
So here we are, at our 100th Birthday Celebration. All honor to Most Worshipful William Parkman, who for twenty years continued his lively interest and encouragement in all our activities. In closing I would like to read a few verses from a special poem he wrote on the occasion of installing our Officers January 9, 1883, as recorded by Secretary William F. Fitch.<br />
<br />
<blockquote><br />
In eighteen hundred and sixty-four<br><br />
Some faithful Brethren met<br><br />
To form a Lodge and thus secure<br><br />
Principles they should not forget<br><br />
Joy and Stone and Spurr and Wilder<br><br />
Quimby, Wadleigh and Pratt<br><br />
Brown, G.P. and Twombly, Sam<br><br />
Last but not least came Knapp.<br><br />
So at a meeting duly called<br><br />
They all in conclave met<br><br />
To find a name that suited all<br><br />
If Charter they could get.<br><br />
Good Brother Joy, a legal man<br><br />
Who loves his Brother P.<br><br />
Said, name it Parkman, if we can —<br><br />
Said William, I will see.<br><br />
The Dispensation came about<br><br />
And after twelve months trial<br><br />
A Charter granted, was made out,<br><br />
And no man made denial.<br><br />
Good seed was sown, and good Work done<br><br />
And happiest hours were spent<br><br />
While new recruits came trooping in<br><br />
On mystic work intent<br><br />
The nineteen pleasant years now passed<br><br />
Bring us not one regret<br><br />
We've had the pleasures which we asked<br><br />
And none of them forget.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
Here indeed was the heartfelt expression of friendship from our energetic sponsor, that wonderful Masonic gentleman, MOST WORSHIPFUL WILLIAM PARKMAN.<br />

==== CONSTITUTION OF WILLIAM PARKMAN LODGE, JUNE, 1865 ====<br />
<br />
''From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXIV, No. 9, July, 1865, Page 273:''<br />
<br />
'''WILLIAM PARKMAN LODGE.''' This is a new Lodge, located in the pleasant village of Winchester, in Middlesex County. It having worked the past year under Dispensation, a Charter was granted to it by the Grand Lodge on the 14th of June, and on the evening of the 22d it was duly Constituted, its Hall Dedicted, and its officers Installed by the M. W. [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master], assisted by a full delegation of the officers of the Grand Lodge. The Constitution and Consecration were in private. At the Dedication and Installation of officers the ladies were admitted, wh were present in large numbers. For their better accommodation the latter ceremony took place in the Lyceum Hall, which was beautifully and emblematically decorated with flags and other devices. In the East was a rich Canopy, bearing on the face of the arch, in gilt letters, the words ''WILLIAM PARKMAN LODGE'', and on its base, the word ''WELCOME''. In the West was also a Canopy bearing the words ''Faith, Hope, Charity'', and the other portions of the Hall were decorated to correspond, The whole design was in good taste and well carried out. The artist was Mr. Beal of this city.<br />
<br />
The Masonic Hall is one of the prettiest in the State, - neat in all respects, and admirably adapted and furnished for the purposes for which it is to be used. The ante-rooms are small but convenient, and fitted up in the same good taste that characterizes the main room.<br />
<br />
At the conclusion of the Masonic ceremonies the large Hall was given up to the ladies, and soon converted into a Fairy scene, with tables spread with the luxuries of the season, and decorated with the choicest flowers. The magic hand of beauty was visible everywhere, and bright eyes and joyous faces ruled the hour. It was an occasion to be treasured up among the pleasant memories of the past.<br />
<br />
As a finale, short speeches were made by the [http://www.masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman Grand Master] and some other Brethren; at the conclusion of which the company dispersed, all apparently gratified and happy.<br />
<br />
The Lodge has done a good business the past year, and starts off on its new career under the most encouraging prospects. It is in most excellent and reliable hands, and its future can hardly fail of eminent and enduring success.<br />
<br />
The officers for the year are as follows:-<br />
* Albion K. P. Joy, W.M.<br />
* Josiah F. Stone, S.W.<br />
* Abijah Thompson, III, J.W.<br />
* Cephas Church, Treas.<br />

==== INSTALLATION, JANUARY 1880 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. III, No. 12, March 1880, Page 379:''<br />
<br />
The brethren of William Parkman Lodge are zealous in all matters which tend to promote the interests of Freemasonry and their own comfort. We had the pleasure of seeing on the evening of January 13th, how they conduct business which concerns the Lodge. It has been contemplated to occupy newer and better apartments in a handsome brick building, recently erected near the old one; but, as a matter of prudence, it Was thought wise to see where the means could be had to pay the expense of fitting and furnishing. A committee was charged with this, and, within a week, more than enough was pledged at call. The Lodge was chartered in 1866, and now has seventy-eight members, and has held in all one hundred and sixty-three meetings. The records show that it has been fraternal and charitable; one entry showing that quite recently it had given $49 for the benefit of a widow. The occasion of our visit was the installation of the officers by Past Grand Master Parkman, who has performed the same service annually, to the pleasure of the Lodge, since it was organized. W. Bro. T. S. Spurr, retiring, was the recipient of an elegant Past Master's jewel, presented by the installing officer in behalf of the Lodge. At the close of the ceremonies a collation was served, and a social hour was passed pleasantly. <br />
<br />
The following is a list of the officers installed: N. F. Marble, W. M.; George S. Littlefield, S. W.; John D. Twombly, J. W.; George F. Parker, Treasurer; L. S. Quimby, Secretary; George Cook, Chaplain; J. H. Dwinell, S. D.; E. H. Stone, J. D.; Ed. Robinson, S. S.; F. A. Patch, J. S.; C. H. Dunham, Marshal; C. L. Harrington, Organist; W. F. Foster, I. S.; Reuben C. Hawes, Tyler.<br />

==== DEDICATION AND INSTALLATION, JANUARY 1881 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. IV, No. 11, February 1881, Page 349:''<br />
<br />
On Friday evening, Jan. 14, William Parkman Lodge threw open the doors of its beautiful new lodge-room and invited Masonic brethren and its lady friends to witness the ceremonies of dedication and installation. The company numbered two hundred persons. It is safe to say that no Lodge in the Commonwealth has a more admirably adapted suite of rooms than this which was dedicated on this occasion. The rooms occupy the entire upper story of the new brick block near the depot; the lodge-room proper being fully forty feet square. Commodious anterooms adjoin it, and a hall suitable for literary, dramatic or social entertainments is situated on the same floor, and this is so arranged that it can be used as a banquet hall for the Lodge, with closets and kitchen attached.<br />
<br />
The dedication ceremony was performed by M. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMLawrence Samuel C. Lawrence], Grand Master, assisted by R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEWright Edwin Wright], Dep. Grand Master; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWChessman William H. Chessman] as Senior Grand Warden; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLNKimball Nathan G. Kimball], Junior Grand Warden ; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman] as Grand Treasurer; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLTCheever Tracy P. Cheever], Recording Grand Secretary; R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWMarshall Wyzeman Marshall], Past Grand Warden; Rev. Bro. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWAlger William R. Alger] as Grand Chaplain; W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFEly Frederick D. Ely], Grand Marshal; W. John L. Stevenson, Grand Sword Bearer: Bro. Charles W. Stevens as Grand Architect; W. Thomas S. Spurr and Joseph L. Whittaker as Grand Stewards; and W. Henry J. Parker, Grand Tyler. <br />
<br />
Among the invited guests were Gen. N. P. Banks, State Senator Thomas Winship, Wor. Alfred F. Chapman, and a few others whose names we failed to get. At the conclusion of the service Gen. Lawrence briefly addressed the members of the Lodge. Master George S. Littlefield, Senior Warden John D. Twombly, Junior Warden Herbert Dwinnell and the others, were then installed by Past Grand Master Parkman, whose felicitous manner of addressing the candidates put the assembly in the best of spirits. After finishing the service he spoke of his love for the Lodge, and complimented its members in the highest terms for their loyalty, as shown both in the erection of the hall, and in their generous contribution toward liquidating the debt on the Masonic Temple in Boston. The curtains were then drawn aside, and the social hall was seen to be arrayed as a dining-room. Preceded Dy the officers of the Grand Lodge, the company proceeded to the tables, and for an hour and more, participated in the pleasures of both bodily and mental refreshment Master Littlefield presided, with the Grand Master on his right, and after the cloth was removed, short and happily worded addresses were made by a number of the gentlemen whose names have been mentioned. The services of dedication and installation were materially aided by the Temple Quartette of Boston. A special train at M.30 bore the last of the visitors homeward.<br />

A very interesting Masonic ceremony took place at Masonic Hall, Winchester, on Tuesday evening January 9th, when R. W. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], P. G. M., installed the officers of the Lodge named after himself, as follows: John D. Twombly, W. M.; J. Herbert Uwinell, S. W.; Edwin Robinson, J. W.; George F. Parker, Treas.; William F. Fitch, Sec.; George Cooke, Chap.; Charles H. Dunham, Marshal; Robert C. Metcalf, S. D.; Walter V, Smalley, J. D.; David N. Skillings, S. S.; Ephraim H. Stillings, J. S.; Warren F. Foster, I. S.; Joseph D. Sharon, Tyler; James C. Johnson, Organist. P. G. M. Parkman performed the ceremony in his usual genial and happy manner, and made some most excellent remarks, and read an original poem, which was heartily enjoyed by all present, and by a unanimous vote of the Lodge, it was ordered to be spread upon the records. R. W. Thos. S. Spurr, D. D. G. M., in behalf of the members of the Lodge presented to the retiring W. M. George S. Littlefield, an elegant Past Master's Jewel, made by Warren L. Knox, a member of the Lodge. W. Brother Littlefield responded in a few well-chosen words. When the Lodge was called from labor to refreshment, the visiting brethren and members gathered around the well-burdened tables in the banquet hall, and alter refreshing themselves, listened to speeches by Messrs. Parkman, Spurr, Bailey and Elder, and then joined in singing a number of familiar songs.<br />

==== 20TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION, APRIL 1884 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. VIII, No. 3, June 1884, Page 96:''<br />
<br />
The celebration of the Twentieth Anniversary of this Lodge at Winchester, Mass., on Friday evening, May 9th, was attended with complete success, and must have been highly gratifying to the brethren composing it, as it certainly was to their guests. The prominent feature in the programme was a historical address, covering the entire period of twenty years. <br />
<br />
A quartette of male voices sang several selections during the evening, and single voices contributed in a similar way to the common pleasure. A fine banquet was served, at which something like two hundred ladies and brethren were seated. Past Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMParkman William Parkman], for whom the Lodge is named, was heartily encored, and spoke feelingly in regard to the occasion. R. W. Brother [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLFEly Ely], Deputy Grand Master, spoke in response for the Grand Lodge, Brother Thomas S. Spurr responded gallantly for the ladies, but the speechmaking was necessarily limited by the lateness of hour and the departure for the cars homeward by non-residents of the town.<br />

==== OFFICIAL VISIT, OCTOBER 1887 ====<br />
<br />
''From Liberal Freemason, Vol. XI, No. 7, October 1887, Page 222:''<br />
<br />
The Annual Visitation to this Lodge was made on the evening of October 11th, by R. W. Charles H. Crane, D. D. G. Master for the [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MASomerville6_1883-1910 Sixth Masonic District], and attended by his suite. The good reputation of the Lodge is so well established and maintained that the words of praise spoken in its behalf were not empty ones. The pleasant and beautiful apartment occupied by the Lodge contribute to make a visit to it enjoyable and this fact is appreciated by members as well as by visiting brethren.<br />

William Parkman of Winchester, Mass., has attained the dignity of a half century career and the notable event was duly celebrated Tuesday, May 26, by a reception and banquet in the Town Hall, which was attended by a large number of brethren. The lodge met at 5.15 o'clock in its apartments, where the officers of the Grand Lodge were formally received, being introduced by a committee, of which Rt. Wor. [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLWBelcher William M. Belcher] was chairman. <br />
<br />
Following these exercises the brethren formed and marched in a body to the Tewn Hall, where the banquet was served. Light tables were spread the length of the large hall, the head table at right angles across the front at the stage. Cut flowers and boutonniere decorated each table.<br />
<br />
The postprandial exercises were opened by Wor. Master Ernest W. Hatch, who introduced the toast-master, Rt. Wor. Solon W. Stevens, who proposed the following toasts: "Our Flag, our Country, our President, and the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Massachusetts," "The Honored Dead of William Parkman Lodge."<br />
<br />
Addresses were made by Past Grand Master [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMGallagher Charles T. Gallagher], who related many reminiscences of William Parkman, who was at the head of the Grand Lodge when the lodge which bears his name was organized. Most Wor. Brother Gallagher was followed by Bro. Samuel J. Elder, who kept his hearers in good humor with his fund of stories. Rt. Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=MAGLEGibbs Emery B. Gibbs], D. G. M., brought congratulations on the completion of the first half century of the lodge's existence.<br />
<br />
Most Worshipful [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=GMMJohnson Melvin M. Johnson], Grand Master, spoke on "Masonry and the Civic Life of Today."<br />
<blockquote><br />
"In the old days," he said, "Masonry was an operative service; today it is a speculative service. Operative Masonry built the Gothic temples throughout Europe and left its imprint on the architecture of the world. Speculative Masonry has developed into a great moral force in the world.<br><br />
<br><br />
"Fifty years ago, when this lodge was founded, the country was in the middle of a great fratricidal strife. If we are to avert another great strife in our land we must be guided by the immutable principles on which Masonry was founded, which alone will save the land from anarchy.<br><br />
<br><br />
"We must trust not to force and power, but to love for God and man. We must teach the world the lessons learned in the lodge room."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
George S. Littlefield, secretary of the lodge, read the historical address. The first meeting of those who desired to form a lodge was held in January, 1864, and another February 15, while March 4 it was decided to apply for a dispensation, which was granted under date of May 9. The organization took place May 10; Albion K. P. Joy was the first Master, Josiah F. Stone Senior Warden, and Abijah Thompson third, Junior Warden. June 16, 1865, a charter was granted, and June 22, 1865, the lodge was duly constituted. At the same time the apartments in Lyceum Hall were dedicated.<br />
<br />
The masters in order of seniority have been: Albion K. P. Joy, Josiah F. Stone, Edwin A. Wadleigh, Charle; H. Moseley, Alfred W. Quimby, Charles E. Follansbee, George W. Spurr, Thomas S. Spurr, N. Frank Marble, George S. Littlefield, John D. Twombly, J. Herbert Dwinell, Walter V. Smalley, John D. Twombly, William S. Walbridge, Charles E. Corey, John H. Winchenbach, Charles A. Lane, Rt. Wor. William M. Belcher, Frederick E. Belcher, Edwin A. Symmes, Benjamin T. Morgan, Edgar W. Metcalf, Fred M. Symmes, Frank F. Carpenter, George F. Edgett, Perc W. Witherell and Ernest W. Hatch.<br />
<br />
In its 50 years of existence 548 men have been associated with the lodge. Of this number 380 received the degree in it and 168 affiliated from ther lodges. The present membership is 296.<br />
<br />
The music was furnished by the Weber Male Quartet of Boston. Among the brethren who were expected to speak was Wor. Bro. Levi G. Gould of [http://masonicgenealogy.com/MediaWiki/index.php?title=Wymong Wyoming] Lodge, Melrose, who was present at the constitution of William Parkman Lodge, but who was obliged to retire without speaking, on account of the lateness of the hour.<br />
<br />
The committee which had charge of the anniversary exercises consisted of Worshipful Master Ernest W. Hatch, Past Grand Warden William M. Belcher, Past Masters George S. Littlefield, Benjamin T. Morgan, George F. Edgett and Percy W. Witherell, Senior Warden Wilbur S. Locke, Junior Warden Jay B. Benton and George A. Barron.<br />

'''70 YEARS OF DEDICATION'''<br />
<br />
On August 14, 1997, Lafayette-Greylock Lodge held a chicken BBQ on the lawn of the North Adams Masonic Building to commemorate the 150th Anniversary as a Lodge. The first meeting was held on Saturday, August 14, 1847, somewhere in the North Village of Adams.<br />
<br />
The Past Masters of Lafayette-Greylock Lodge raised two men, Michael J. Hernandas and Roy W. Dupree, to the Sublime Degree. The guest of honor was Wor. Albert E. Garratt, the oldest living Past Master in Massachusetts. He served the Lodge in 1927, some 70 years ago! Bro. Garratt was born November 11, 1895, in Fall River and was Initiated on January 17, 1922, a 75 year member. He now resides at the Masonic Home in Charlton. He was presented a 70 year pin and a Table Lodge apron by the Lodge.<br />
<br />
A sesquicentennial directory was printed containing a list of all members, the by-laws and a brief history of Lafayette-Greylock Lodge. This directory is dedicated to Albert E. Garrett and in memory of Rt. Wor. Donald O. Canedy, P. D. D. G. M. and all departed Brethren of Lafayette-Greylock Lodge.<br />
