MASONIC HISTORY.

The first lodge of Free and Accepted
Masons established in Brattleboro was
called Columbian lodge, No. a. and re-
ceived it's charter from the most wor-
shipful grand lodge of Vermont, at its
annual session held at Montpelier in Oc-
tober, 1872. The original petition for a
warrant of sdispensation to work was
dated March e. 1872. and was addressed
to Hon. John Chapman, at that time the
most worshipful grand master of the
grard lodge of Vermont, signed by the
following: Lemuel Whitney, Abram
KingsburY, Abram Tinker, Elisha Chase,
Elihu Field, jr., Samuel Elliot, Samuel
Clark. John w. Blake, Nahum Cutler,
Rodney Burt, Quartus Smead, Nathaniel
Bliss, Aaron Barney, Samuel Dickinson,
Richard Phillips, Porter Johnson Joseph
Brown and Asa Green.
Grand Master Chapman, having consid-
cred the petition, granted his warrant OF
dispensation under date of May ., 1872,
which permitted the brethren to hold
their communications either in Brattle-
boro or Guilford. For many years after
the lodge was constituted the meetings
were held in Guilford, but subsequently
in Brattleboro. This lodge suspended
work about 1880, during the period of the
Morgan excitement, when the order was
under a cloud and unpopular. The lodge
surrendered its charter to the grand
lOuSe OF lNe Sldle.
Hon. Lemuel Whitney was first APP
pointed worshipful master of this lodge,
and held that office by election for many
successive years. Most Of the influen-
tial men of Gulford and Brattleboro of
those days were enrolled in the mem
bership of the lodge. Masters of old
Columbian lodge were Lemuel Whitney,
Elihu Field ARENAS Robbins, Aaron
Barney, Emerson Burnham, Dana Hyde,
jr.. Arial Root. John Hudson.
The portrait of Lemuel Whitney, the
first master, hangs on the walls of the
new Masonic temple.
The present Columbian lodge was in
stituted in quarters in odd Fellows hall,
a building on the site of y. V. Cox S
store. In 1890 quarters were fitted up
for the craft in the Williston building.
In the early sixties the Masons built the
so-called Retting building on High street
and moved there. In 1869 they sold the
hall and moved to the Pratt building on
Main street using the hall now known
"a Red Mems hall, until they moved to
the third floor of the Market building on
Elliot street, where the hall was dedi-
Gated Dec. l. 1887. The lease of Market
building expired April of this year, and
since then the regular and special meet
ings have been held in the temple, anC
both blue lodges have worked degree!

LADIES, NIGHT.

The temple was scene of brilliant fes-
tivity last evening, when ladies' night
was observed, with an attendance of over
co., the larger percentage being the fair
sex. The main lodge room was filled to
OVERLOOKING although all the available
space was occupied by chairs. John w.
harrington of Bryn Mawr Pa, a noted
church organist in Philadelphia, gave
the recital with the program as follows:
Nebuco Verdi
Gavotte Handel
Baritone solo, "a Song of Thanks
giving Alltsen
Mr.. Adams
(a) Revere on Scotch Melody Buck
Cd Serenata Moszkowski
(c) Pilgrim Chorus Wagner
Violin solo, venetian Love Song" Nevin
Mr.. G. NJ. Dugan.
Overture, Semaramide Rossini
This was an artistic performance in
every number holding the audience in
rapt attention, and the several selections
were received with hearty and sponta-
neous applause.
Mr.. Adams, always pleasing in his
singing, was in exceptionally fine voice.
He responded to the encore with "Ab-
sence," by Metcalf.
The combination of the organ and vio-
lin was extremely beautiful, Mr.. Dugan
playing with a skill which aroused en-
thusiasm on all sides. He responded to
the recall with a selection from Caval-
lera Rusticana.
Mr. harrington is at all times a master
at the instrument, either in the delicate
intonations or in the rich full harmonies
making the organ speak a various Ian
gauge. The beauties of its tonal qualities
were brought out exquisitely in his ar
tstic interpretations. The delighted
audience, demanded more, and would not
be content when Mr.. harrington added
The Mocking Bird" and Home Sweet
Home" to the program. He then spoke
briefly, saying he had never had more
appreciative audience, and expressing his
admiration of the organ. AS a final
number by request, he played an i'm
provisation bringing out strikingly the
effect of a thunder storm.
The recital over, A. p. Smonds raped
to order and invited all present to inspect
every part of the building, from the
armory on the third floor to the bowling
alley in the basement.
Dancing in the banquet hall on the
first floor was enjoyed until after 12
o'clock, the social diversion, with the use
of the billiard room and bowling alleys,
occupying the attention of many. Re-
freshments were served under the direc-
ton of the reception committee.
Ladies' night was certainly a great
success from every standpoint.
Today from to and from to .
the building will be open to the public
and F. c. Leitsnger will preside at the
organ.
