HALL FIRE, MARCH 1864

From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XXIII, No. 5, March 1864, Page 160:

We regret to learn that at the recent fire in Gloucester, Cape Ann, the new and well appointed Hall of Tyrian Lodge, was wholly destroyed. We understand that the regalia, records, and most of the furniture of the Lodge were saved, but the Hall with its fixtures, ornaments, etc., was consumed. The loss is estimated at from five to seven hundred dollars.
