Mortgage Burning in East Bridgewater

Most Worshipful Albert T. Ames, Grand Master of Masons in Massachusetts, led a large delegation of Grand Lodge officers together with many distinguished Brethren to East Bridgewater to assist the local Brethren in "consigning to the flames" the mortgage of the five-year-old Tri-Town Masonic Temple. The Grand Master's suite was composed of some 25 Grand Lodge officers from around the jurisdiction.

Honored to be taking part in the ceremony were: Bro. Wesley D. Blake, a 60-year member of Puritan Lodge; Wor. James D. Paiva, P. M. of Wampatuck Lodge, representing younger Masons, and Bro. Norman Shepherd, chairman of the mortgage-burning committee.

During the burning of the mortgage paper a ceiling heat detector sounded a shrill warning, which prompted the Grand Master to remark, "It's nice to know that the fire alarm system is in good working order."

The ceremony followed a potroast dinner served by the ladies of Wampatuck Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, of Hanson.
