Mentioned in the committee report on Grand Master William Sewall Gardner's address in September 1869; the lodge was granted a dispensation in 1858 and a charter in 1859 "but it is believed that the Lodge was never organized under it. . . the chairman of your committee is under the impression, that the Charter was lost at sea, in its transmission, and that the petitioners soon after abandoned the enterprise, and connected themselves with Bethesda Lodge."
