DIazed northward to a point afterward
CHOSEN by Herman Kountze as a site for

tlrst claim in Douglas county. Later the
Indians protested against Jones' claim, and
1t was then he secured, through his brother
Odd Fellow, j. d. Test, of Council Bluffs,
the appointment as postmaster and put up
his building.
Lodge Soon Follows Jones.
Shortly after he arrived In what is now
Omaha Jones began to talk Of organizing
an Odd Fellows lodge He needed four be-
sides himself to apply for a charter, but
one of his prospective members left the
territory and disappeared, never being
heard OF a~fterward. This occasioned delay,
and before Jones could drum up a fifth
man holding a regular withdrawal card
lodge No. l was chartered at Nebraska
City, Not long after the granting OF this
charter Jones forwarded his application
for a charter in Omaha, bearing the names
of Alfred d. Jones. Hadley d. Johnson,
Ambrose S. Bishop, Taylor @. Goodwill and
George Armstrong.
The charter OF Omaha lodge No. 2 bears
date of November II. 1855, being the oldest
document OF its character in this state. 1t
was warrant for the establishment in
Omaha OF the first lodge OF this or any
other order. and it was the first fraternal
lodge instituted in the state which lived,

September IA, 1855, was the date of the
first regular session of the grand lodge,
held at Omaha in the hall Of No. 2, with
six lodges represented.
The Civil war shattered most lodges then
existing in Nebraska, but No. 2 worried

On February /, 1856, according to MT
Greenleaf's finding. the five charter mem

Double Up on offices.
During quite a period that followed
many members filled two offices in the
lodge and meetings were not very regular.
By November 4. 1855, DR.. George L. Miller,
H.. w. futile, John Y. Chopper and ]. b.
Allen had been initiated, and Jeremiah
Cassidy, Asa Hunt, John r, Porter and G.
w. Crowell we're admitted by card. on
that date all the offices in the lodge were
filled for the first time
In December. 1856. It was decided to allow
the secretary to receive city scrip for dues,
as times were hard on account OF a panic
in the previous September. Going along
easy. the lodge had grown to a membership
OF thirty-nine by January. 1858. Then a
ball was given. which Melted 500 So. The
old minutes say this was one OF the great
est balls ever given anywhere on earth
for real jollity and pure enjoyment.
After meeting for some time in the old
capitol building, the lodge moved into a
small wooden building on the site where
the police station nov stands. From here
the meeting place was changed to a house
on Dodge street, near Twelfth, occupied
by Rev, Mr., Leach. which, was so cold

it's early Nebraska ancestors.
The old Western Exchange building,
which stood at Twelfth and Farnam
streets. was the next meeting place, and
during all these moves Alfred d.. Jones
kept the records in his home at Park
Wilde, carrying them to and from all meet
ings.
Meetings in Armstrong Home.
George Armstrong; residence witnessed
the holding Of a good many lodge meet
ings. This house was on Dodge, just east
of Fifteenth. In the next few years the
lodge met In the Pioneer block. on Farnam,
between Eleventh and Twelfth, and in the
third story OF a building on Farnam, occu-
pied by G. H. and ]. s. Collins. The latter
location was held until 1874, when the lodge
took up it's quarters in the present home,
Fourteenth and Dodge. The Townsite COM
pany gave the lot and the building cost
$4,000. And Jones paid the taxes for
many years when the lodge was short Of
funds"
Martin Durham often told a story of
holding meetings and Invitations by candle
light, furnished by Joseph f. Shelley. and
the members holding them aloft. A travel
ing brother brought word of a new tangled
thing called a chandelier, and the lodge
decided to have one right away So a
brother donated an old wagon wheel rim,
which was suspended from the ceiling at
the proper height. and the candles were
set about this several inches apart. This
new lighting arrangement was the wonder
OF the community. and the faithful chron-
icler says "the result was dazzling when
all the candles were lighted" Through an
oversight later. the old chandelier was not
preserved, as It should a been, being
the pride OF the lodge for many months. 1"
