EVENTS

CONSTITUTION OF LODGE, OCTOBER 1864

From Moore's Freemason's Monthly Magazine, Vol. XXIII, No. 12, October, 1864, p. 377:

This Lodge, having completed its probationary year under Dispensation, was Constituted on the evening of the 25th of Sept., by the M. W. Grand Lodge. Its Hall was Dedicated at the same time, and its Officers were Publicly Installed. The latter ceremony took place in the Universalist Church, and in the presence of a larse assemblage of ladies and gentlemen. The services were performed by the M. W. Grand Master, with his usual ability and good taste, and apparently to the great acceptance and satisfaction of the audience. After the ceremonies at the Church, the Brethren, with their ladies and invited guests, sat down lo a fine Collation, and spent a very agreeable hour in social enjoyment and the interchange of opinions.

The Lodge has been eminently successful during the past year, and the prospects for the future are highly encouraging and satisfactory. It has a good and convenient Hall; is located in a pleasant and thriving village, and has a good set of officers and members. The officers are as follows:—

  • A. W. Howe, W. M.
  • B. R. Tibbetts, S. W.
  • J. Q. A. Batchelder, J. W.
  • Dean Kimball, Treas.
  • T. C. Everett, Sec.
  • W. L. Hyde, S. D.
  • J. W. Legro, J. D.
  • P. M. Chase, S. S.
  • N. K. Cross, J. S
  • Rev. R. F. Chase, Chap.
  • U. B. Hood, Mar.
  • Christopher Hammond, Tyler.
