ONTARIO many dimits were granted, yet the membership continued to grow. Up to 1875 there were very few meetâ€" ings where less than two or three degrees were worked; it would ’be unusual to find the minutes of a meeting of this period where no work was done. While in later .Vears the candidates were not so numer~ ous, nevertheless the lodge still flourished. The most notable year, however, was in 1921 when, with the late W. Bro. S. R. Robinson as mas~ ter. seventeen candidates were ini- tiated. ' In 1869 Bro. J. E. Davis was elected Worshipful Master of J. M. Rupert. A suitable building was erected and within a few months the lodge was at work in its new home. The new building was by no means complete to start with, and from time to time frequent additions were made. At one time a carpet was purchased, later, blinds were added, at another time a driving shed was erected, then a feeding trough was put in it, a fence built. etc. From the Very night it was be~ gun, down to its present time, Vaughan Lodge has had a steady growth and useful existence. Candi- dates were iplentiful, particularly during- the early years, and, while The committee set to work imme- diately. The present site was chos~ en, the land being donated by Bro. The first meetings of Vaughan Lodge took place in a building on the property of Mr. Valentine Mc- Artney, to whom the Lodge pal: rent. In December, 1861. Valentine McArtney put in an application for membership, and on January let, 1862, was admitted as a member of Vaughan Lodge. At a meeting the lodge took steps to build a lodge hall of their own. James Woods was :born in Ireland in 1818. He came to Canada while still a young man and became a blacksmith in the village of Noble- ville, as Maple was then called. Bre- yond this we know‘ nothing of his early life and Masonlc' standing, un~ til he became a charter member of Vaughan Lodge at its inception, and assumed the office of the first Worâ€" shirpful Master of the lodge. The first meeting of Vaughan Lodge was held on September 2flst, 1854. The following members of King Solomon’s Lodge, No. 22, G.R. ‘C. assumed the chairs, and installed the first officers of Vaughan Lodge: W. Bro. Charles Fitzgibbon, Bro. ’R. C. McMullen, Bro. Thomas Leach, Bro. John MdMullen, Bro. E. R. '0’- Erien, Bro. William Skeers, and Bra. Thomas McConkey. An interesting history of Vaughan Lodge was given by the rufing mas~ ter, W. Bro. Neil McDonald, which traced the development of Masonry in the district since the Lodge was first founded at Maple 85 years ago. Speaking of the history of the Lodge W. Bro. McDonald said “As Grand Lodge owes much to its great leader and organizer, Most Worship- fu] Brother Mercer Wilson, so does Vaughan Lodge owe much to its great leader and organizer, Wor- shilpful Brother James Woods. This, was a humble beginning, as not even all the usual chairs were filled during the first year, nor for several years afterwards. However, at its first meeting, five petitions were presented: Jpseph Noble, James Gordon, William Cow- an, John Cowan, and Andrew Ram- Last Thursday evening. October 12th was a memorable date in the historv of Vaughan Lodge when a special meeting was held commem~ crating the eighty-fifth birthday of Masonry at Maple. The occasxon was honored ‘by the presence of M. W. Bro. Dr. J. A. Dobbie of Ottawa. Grand Master for the Pr0vince of Ontario and a large number of other prominent masons from Toronto and the surrounding district. A feature of the evening was the introduction of a number of the veteran past masters of Vaughan Lodge. W. Bro. R. M. H-adwen was presented with a veteran’s jewel, having been a mason for over fifty years and havâ€" ing sewed as Master of Vaughan Lodge in 1893. An honorary life membership was conferred! on W. Bro. J. S. Kinnee, who was Worship- ful Master in 1887. say The following officers were in- stalled in Vaughan Lodge: W.M., W. Bro. James Woods; S.W., Bro. JOhn Nolble; J.W., Bro. James Dick; S.D., Bro. G. Bernard; J.D., Bro. Uriel Chamlberlane; I.G., Bro. Robert Moore; Tyler, Bro. I. Caprouse. Vaughan Lodge AF. 1; AM. Celebrated Eighty-fifth Birthday October 12th W. Bro. R. W. Hadwen and W. Bro. J. S. Kinnee, Past Masters Honored â€" Interesting History of Lodge Given by Ruling Master In 1923 a large sum of money was spent on enlarging and repairing the hall. The committee appointed to carry out this Work was Very Wor- shipful Brother George Brownlee, Very Worsh‘ipful Brother Thomas Cousins, and Right Worshipful Bro- _ ther James B. McLean. The whole _ building was moved north and west. and twenty feet added to the front. The interior of the building was changed about. The anteâ€"room and entrance, formerly at the front of the building were moved to the back; 1 the Master’s chair, which was in the t west, was moved to the east, and the whole place was cleaned and re- s decorated. The financing of this 9 project was largely carried out from I. l funds already in the lodge treasury, and by a subscription taken up a- mong its members. ‘ In its eighty-five years. Vaughan “Lodge has been honoured by four visits from ruling Grand ‘Masters. On January 2nd, 1890, Most Wor- shipful Brother John Ross RobertsOn 'Fpent an evening with our lodge. On June 17, 1913, Most Worshipful Bro- ther A. White, Grand Master, and member of King Solomon’s Lodge, was given a receptiOn under the ausâ€" pices of Vaughan Lodge. It was in that year that the district honoured our lodge by electing Right Wor- shipful Brother James B. McLean as District Deputv Grand Master. In 1937-38 Vaughan Lodge was again honor-red by the district when Right Worshipful Brother Ivan B. Mussel- rman was elected District Deputy]J ‘Grand Master. and on May 6. 1938, :Most Worshipful Brother W. J. Dun- ‘lop visited Vaughan Lodge, where a ’reception was tendered him: by the district. The fourth visit bv a ruling Grand Master is not yet history. But as .the years go by. we know that the brethren of Vaughan Lodge will look back upon this night and this visit of our Most Worthy Grand Master,I Dr. J. A. Dobbie, as an honour not to be forgotten. And as the years go by. we hope that Vaughan Lodge will continue to flourish and uphold Masonry in its own sphere of influ- ence to the honour and‘ glory of {the craft throughout the Grand Jur- isdiction in the Province of Ontario. #19 l l "Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today”â€"â€"f0r by then there will be a law against it or 31 higher tax on it. When he got there he found six other ostriches standing with their heads buried in the sand. i In 1874 died Bro. John Rupert, !who had so generously donated the [property on which the lodge now ’stands, and the brethren showed {their appreciation by erecting a fine monument to his memory. An ostrich went out for a stroll in the desert and thought he’d call at his favorite oasis, in the hOpe of running across a few of his pals. “Just m: soul about All through the years, up to the early nineties, the great guiding light of our lodge was Worshipful Brother James Woods. He was Vaughan Lodge’s first Master at the age of 36, and he grew old‘ sewing his lodge, as secretary, on committees, as treasurer, or in any capacity he was able. He sat in his lodge for the last time on July 17, 1894, the year that Worshipful BrO- ther R. ‘M. Hadwen was Worship-ful Master. He passed to the world a- ‘-bove on July 15, 1899, at the age of 81 years. Those of our brethren who are still with us, and who knew him, tell us that he was of a strong and upright character and’ a stal- wart Mason. Vaughan Lodge, but owing to ill- ness, was not able to attend install- ation. On February 9, the lodge went in a body to his home where he was installed. Shortly after- wards he was called from his duties by death. In 1871 the officers and members of Vaughan Lodge went to Concord where they installed the first offi- cers of a new lodge, to be known as Patterson Lodge, No. 265. This lodge was later moved to Thornhill. In 1872 the first officers of Robert- son Lodge No. 292 were installed at No‘bleton ‘by the officers and mem- bers of Vaughan Lodge. This lodge was later moved to King. Two other lodges were formed by the brethren of Vaughan Lodge; one in 1870, at Pine Grove, which was then a flour- ishing village; the other in 1871 at FishervilLe. Both these lodges have long since gone out of existence. my luck!" he said. “Not i Trinity Women‘s Club are holding {a Bridge and Euchre in the Parish Hall on Monday, October 23rd.
