EVENTS

CONSTITUTION OF LODGE, JULY 1861

From Moore's Freemason's Monthly, Vol. XX, No. 10, August 1861, Page 377:

This Lodge was regularly constituted and its officers publicly installed by the Grand Master, M. W. Wm. D. Coolidge, assisted by the officers of the Grand Lodge, on Tuesday, the 24th ult. The installation services took place in the Methodist Church, and were attended by a large number of ladies and citizens. The address of the Grand Master was, as usual, appropriate and impressive, and was listened to with great attention and satisfaction. The music was also worthy of great praise. At the conclusion of the services at the church, the Brethren partook of a supper together at the Amherst House, where a pleasant, and we hope not unprofitable hour, was spent in an interchange of views and listening to encouraging words.

The Lodge was organized under the Charter of a former Lodge of the same name, and takes rank from 1801. The officers for the year are as follows :—

  • I. F. Conkey, W. Master.
  • Geo. W. Allen, S. W.
  • Benj. W. Allen, J. W.
  • D. W. Palmer, Treas.
  • Geo. E. Cook, Sec.
  • J. L. Lovell, S. D.
  • Lemuel E. Coe, J. D.
  • Geo. A. Whipple, S. S.
  • John C. White, J. S.
  • M. N. Spear, M.
  • John Jones, Chap.
  • Timothy Armstrong, Tyler.

The officers of the Grand Lodge present, are under many obligations to Bro. Conkey and other officers of the new Lodge for the courtesies extended to them.
