EVENTS

CONSTITUTION OF LODGE, MARCH 1874

From New England Freemason, Vol. I, No. 4, April 1874, Page 195:

Constitution of Phoenix Lodge, Hanover, Mass.—A Special Communication of the M. W. Grand Lodge of Massachusetts was opened in Hanover on the ninth instant. The Grand Officers arrived at 11.30 o'clock, having left Boston at 8.45 a. m. by the Old Colony R. R., and performed six miles of stage travel from N. Abington, in consequence of a car being off and obstructing the track on the Hanover Branch. A generous collation was furnished by Phoenix Lodge to the Grand Officers and invited guests, under the direction of Brother J. H. Costley of the Hanover House. The Masonic services of dedication, constitution and installation were conducted by Grand Master Nickerson, who delivered a short practical address, followed by interesting and eloquent remarks by Past Grand Masters Coolidge and Parkman.

The Grand Officers returned to Boston by the 4 p. m. train. The Charter bears the names of thirty-two members. The occasion was much enjoyed by all the Brethren present, and the new Lodge commences its Masonic career under the most favorable auspices. The Grand Lodge was represented as follows: M. W. Sereno D. Nickerson, Grand Master; R. W. William D. Coolidge, as Dep. Grand Master; R. W. William T. Grammer, S. G. Warden; R. W. Henry Endicott, as J. G. Warden; R. W. William Parkman, as G. Treasurer; W. Thomas W. Davis, as R. G. Secretary; R. W. Charles H. Titus, as G. Cnaplain; W. William H. Chessman, G. Marshal; Bro. Alonzo P. Jones, as S. G. Deacon; Bro. L. Cushing Kimball, as J. G. Deacon; W. E. Dana Bancroft, G. Lecturer; Bro. B. F. Nourse, G. Tyler.
