sixty-Avo years ago an humble citizen of
Baltimore, Thomas Wildey, established the
first independent order of odd Fellows in
that city. Tho order since thon has spread
throughout tho world. A monument erected
to the memory Of Thomas Widely, stands at
the head of Broadway, Baltimore. Saturday
was the sixty-ifth anniversary Of the 1nde-
pendent Order of Odd Fellows. IL was cele-
brated with appropriate exercises yesterday
afternoon at Foundry NJ. l.. church. There
were present at tho church delegations from
Columbia lodge No. 10; Friendship lodge, No.
II; Covenant lodge, No. 49, Beacon lodge,
No. Is; Metropolis lodge No. 49, Mechanics

mony lodges, from the Navy Yard, and other
lodges and encampments. Tho grand lodge
was represented in body, the members wear
ing their jewels. The members of the re-
spective lodges appeared in dark dress suits
and without regalia.
Tho exercises at the church consisted of
the singing Of hymns, prayer, aud reading OF
scriptures by Chaplaips Rev. Richard En-
mons and Rev. p Hall Sweet, and an address
by the pastor. Rev. DIR. II. K, Naylor. One
of tho hymns sung was to the tune Of Aud

Mrs. BERTHE Havenner McEwen, Miss Annie
Charlton, Messrs. William Watson and Joseph
Z. Smith. Prof. j. w. Garland, the blind
organist, furnished the instrumental music.
DIR. Naylor took as the theme for his remarks
Practical Philanthrophy," and talked
what odd Fellowship had done for
the amelioration of the condition of mankind
when suffering and in distress. During the
course of his remarks he mentioned some of
| the objections to Odd Fellowship which have
existed since its origin, and which he said
| were secrecy, its substitution for church
| worship, and bad men in the order" DIR.
| Naylor said its secret business of philanthropy
was necessary; that Odd Fellowship never
did claim to be gospel or church, and that
there were bad men in oil organizations,
political social, religious, and secular. At
the close of DIR. MAYORS address unanimous
vote was then taken that he furnish it for pub
LEGATION and distribution to members of the
| order.
