EVENTS

CONSTITUTION OF LODGE, MARCH 1865

From Moore's Freemason's Monthly Magazine, Vol. XXIV, No. 5, April 1865:

Roswell Lee Lodge.

This is the name of a new and promising Lodge recently established at Springfield, Mass. Having worked a year under Dispensation, it was duly constituted by the M. W. Grand Lodge on the 14th of March, ultimo. The ceremonies took place in the Hall of Hampden Lodge, in the presence of a large number of Brethren. At the conclusion of these, and after a very excellent practical address by Grand Master Parkman, the Lodge was closed and the Brethren repaired to the Union House to supper, where a pleasant, and it is believed not an unprofitable hour was spent in social enjoyment and the interchange of views and opinions. The Lodge has done a large amount of work the past year, and starts on its new career with the most encouraging prospects. The officers are as follows: -

  • E. W. Clark, W. M.
  • Sam'l B. Spooner, S. W.
  • John B. Hunt, J. W.
  • A. E. Foth, Treas.
  • W. T. Ingraham, Sec.
  • G. T. Weaver, S. D.
  • Robert Morris, J. D.
  • James M. Porter, Marshal
  • E. Cady, S. S.
  • H. G. Shaw, J. S.
  • Geo. D. Rollins, Tyler.
