J^E LIVE RED on the occasion of the Centennial Celebration at Grimsby Park, on August 17th, 1899. Prologue Of the Conditions Of its First Officers TOUCHING THE LODGE AND ITS FOUNDE RS IN THE DYING DAYS of the Eighteenth Century, when the fruitful plains of this "Garden of Canada" were covered with primeval forests that had seen but little of the pioneer's axe, eight good men and true banded themselves together for the purpose of establishing a lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in the Township of Grimsby. Theirs was no easy task when we take into consideration how difficult were the means of communication, and how sparsely was the country populated in those early days. Some of them had to travel several miles to their place of meeting, and the regularity of their attendance at their monthly communications was but an evidence of the enthusiasm and enterprise displayed by our great- grandfathers in all their undertakings. On December 17th, 1799, the Lodge was instituted, and the following officers were installed by R. Wor. Bro. Sylvester Tiffimy, Grand Secretary. Robert Nelles, Worshipful Master. Jonathan Wolverton, Senior Warden. Allan Nixon, Junior Warden. John Foote, Secretary. Jonathan Moore, Treasurer. George Ransier and James Henry, Deacons Stephen Coon, Tyler. These are the men who were the fathers of Masonry in Grimsby, and it is to commemorate their untiring energy and devotion to the Craft, that we are as- sembled here this afternoon. Any of those present who are familiar with the genealogy of some of the leading families of Grimsby, will recognize that several of these names have been perpetuated in our midst to the present time, and that they have been indelibly stamped on the map of this section of our country. page five History of Union Lodge Of the First U' prshipfiil Master And of Others Concerning the first Master of Union Lodge, Wor. Bro. Robt. Nelles, I am indebted to an early history of Grimsby for the following : " Col. Robt. Nelles, with his father and two brothers, were the pioneers of Grimsby, having settled here in 1783. He was a man of strong will and great endmance, was a valiant warrior, and was often employed in carrying despatches of a confidential nature, and under difficult circum- stances. On one occasion, Feb. 14th, 1780, he and four Indians were so driven and surrounded by a superior force of Continentals, that they could only escape by swimming the Oswego river, near its mouth. Nelles and one Indian only, made good their escape, though the bullets whizzed about their heads. Their clothes were soon frozen on them, and they had no means of drying them except the heat of their bodies, un- til they reached Fort Niagara. Nelles became a member of Parliament in 1 800, and lived in his comfortable residence in Grimsby to a good old age, having filled many places of position and trust." Jonathan Wolverton, the first Senior Warden, came from New Jersey, and settled in Grimsby in 1798. He was a man of distinction in the United States, and held civil and military positions there. For thirty-five years he was a resident of Grimsby, and during that time was a faithful and useful member of Union Lodge. He was elected Master to succeed Wor. Bro. Robt. Nelles. To Allan Nixon, the first Junior Warden, belongs the distinction of having made the first tools and im- plements of the Lodge, These three brethren, along with many others of the Craft, sleep in the pretty little cemetery of St. Andrew's Church, at the foot of the mountain yonder. page SIX OF SUNDRY RESTRICT- IVE PROVISIONS A Of The Lodge Of Fines of Sundry Amounts Of Wholesome Admonition Of the First Candidates CONSTITUTION was drawn up and ap- proved of by the Lodge on December 27th, 1799. Amongst other clauses, the following may prove of interest : " The Lodge shall meet at John Foote's tavern at the Forty Mile Creek or elsewhere in the Town- ship of Grimsby, on every Thursday, on or pre- ceding the full moon." " Every brother shall appear in clean, decent apparel, with proper clothing, and shall observe a due decorum while the lodge is engaged in what is serious and solemn." " If any member be absent one hour after the time appointed, he shall be fined i/6d, lawful money of this province, and if absent the whole night, one Spanish dollar, except in case of sick- ness, or if he live more than three viles from the place of meeting, or some good and sufficient reason. The fines thus paid are to be devoted to a fund for the relief of indigent brethren." "Any member, (past officers excepted) refus- ing to serve in any offices c. the Lodge shall be fined as follows : For the Master, 7/6d ; Wardens and Secretary, 2/6d ; fo! Deacons, i/." " If any brother in the Lodge curse or swear, lay or offer to lay wagers, or use any reproachful language in derogation of God's name or corrup- *tion of good manners, he shall be fined at the discretion of the Master and the majority." " If any member come disguised with liquor, he shall be admonished by the presiding officer for the first offence ; for the second of a similar nature, he shall be fined one Spanish Dollar, and if a third offence of like nature should occur, that member, shall be excluded and reported to Grand Lodge." On February 6th, i8cx), the first initiations took place, the candidates being John Pettit, David Wilcox, Henry Hixson, and William Harrington. page seven History of Union Lodge The members of the Lodge held due respect for the temperance proclivities of their fellow-members, for on July 3rd, 1800, a motion was pissed, providing " that Bro. Pettit pay only one shilling each night, in- stead of two shillings, as he took no refreshment." Great difficulty was experienced in these early days in collecting the dues. Money was scarce, and very frequently mention is made in the minutes, where members paid their dues by notes and due bills. On June 24th, 1802, an oration was delivered by Bro. Phelps, Chaplain of the Lodge, and the sum of St. John's Day $4.00 was paid him for his services. After the oration, due form the brethren marched in good order to the house of Bro. Wolverton, where they partook of an excellent dinner with some refreshment, and the cost was but £Ti 9s. In fact for a number of years these excellent dinners with the necessary refreshment, were partaken of on St. John the Baptist's and St. John the Evange- list's days. page eight i Of various Tenancies, as herein noted The Lodge in business as Apiarists And as Church Builders Ante-mortem Request THE LODGE ENTERS THE FIELD OF BUSINESS DURING the first twenty-eight years of the existence of the Lodge, the meetings were held in nine different places. I have had as much difficulty in locating these as is experienced in locating the battle field of Stoney Creek ; but of one thing I am quite certain, namely that only one of these buildings is now standing, and that is the stately stone residence near St. Andrew's Church, built in 1798, by Col.Robt. Nelles.and now owned and occupied by his grand-daughter, Mrs. Adam Rutherford. The Lodge was moved to this house in May, 1802, On Feb'y 23rd, 1804, it was resolved to go into the business of purchasing bees, and "for the better accom- modating our said Lodge, and making further provision for the same, in order to make it more extensively charitable," it was thought prudent to fall upon the following plan. The Lodge at this time was in a good financial condition, There was the handsome sum of £6^ 8s 2d in the treasury. It was decided to take one dollar out of every pound to purchase bees. A committee was appointed to look after the same, and make returns at the autumnal St. John's day. On December 23rd, 1804, two candidates paid their fees in bees. The bee industry was evidently not a success, as I can only find two records in the minutes where sales of honey were made. On the 24th of June, 1805, beside partaking of an excellent dinner, and the usual refreshment, it was decided to take a suflBcient sum out of the treasury to cover the expense of building a pulpit in St. Andrew's Church. On January 7th, 1805, as Bro. Stephen Coon was lying on his deathbed, and as he was not likely to page nine A timely Discourse The Lod<;;e in Troublous Times History of Union Lodge remain long in this world, it was his wish and desire that the Lodge grant him the sum of fifteen dollars to purchase the lot on which he lived at that time, for his widow. His request, and I may add many similar requests for charity, was granted. Bro. Coon passed away during the month of January, and at the regular Communication cf the Lodge in February, it was passed unanimously in the Lodge that the price of three gallons of whiskey, drunk at Bro. Coon's funeral, be taken out of the treasury. I have no apology to make for the amount of whiskey drunk by our ancient brethren. There was a distillery close at hand, whiskey was very cheap, and seems to have been the favourite beverage in those early days. On December 27th, 1808, a church procession was held, and a well adapted discourse was delivered by Bro. John Palmer from these words, " And the cup was found in Benjamin's sack." After the service, a dinner was served at Crook's Hotel. On June 24th, 1809, Bro. Hixson agreed to furnish the room for the use of the members, also candles, for six shillings per night. He also agreed to furnish one quart of whiskey, for which he was to be paid extra. During the troublesome times from 1812 to 1815, no meetings of the Lodge were held. This may be accounted for by the fact that during this period this district was infested with American troops. Many of the members were engaged in active service in defence of their country. That many of them died during the war is proven by the minvites. A motion was passed at the first meeting in 18 16, declaring that all notes held against deceased brethren should be destroyed. page ten Some Statistics An Official visit Pyecautionary Diligence THE FIRST OFFICIAL VISIT AND OTHER MATTERS IN MAY 1 8 17, the Lodge moved to Bro. Cargill's house, and Bro. Cargill was called upon to furnish a good dinner for the occasion. In the same year the brethren were called upon to mourn the death of Grand Master Jarvis. During the years 18 18 to 1 821, the Lodge was in a most flourishing condition, as far as the attendance of members was concerned. On December 27th. 18 18, the names of twenty members and four visitors were recorded, and almost as many were present at each meeting during these years. The first notice of the visit of a District-Deputy to the Lodge, is recorded on October i, 18 19. An emergent meeting had been called to receive Bro. McAllister, a Deputy appointed to visit the various Lodges under the jurisdiction of the Grand Convention at Kingston. He was complimented by the Lodge in the following manner : " We, the Master, Wardens and Brethren of Union Lodge, do hereby declare that Bro. McAllister has visited our Lodge, in our lodge- room at Grimsby, and by his unremitted attention has merited our unanimous applause, for which we return him our sincere thanks." A flattering resolution such as the above, would be liable to upset the mental equilibrium of many of the District Deputies of our day and generation. On November i6th, 1820, a lock was purchased for the better security of the Lodge chest, which contained the rolls, records and implements. Great caution was observed in these early days in the selection of candidates, and the brethren very frequently used the blackball when they considered a candidate was unworthy of admission into Masonry. page eleven m" T r^mm History of Union Lodge A Masonic Interregnum The Lodge Resuscitated Guarding the Ancient Landmarks Brethren guilty of un masonic conduct, were often suspended, and reported to Grand Lodge. The action of our ancient brethren in these respects is commend- able, and worthy of emulation by ourselves. On May 6th, 1824, the request of Bro. Wolverton, that on account of his great age, he be exempt from paying dues except when he attended, was granted. From 1827 to 1854 no meetings of the Lodge were called, at least no records are forthcoming which would shew that any communications took place dur- ing these years. These were the dark days of Masonry in Canada. In searching for information relative to this period, I have been told that the cause of dormancy of the Lodge was due to the political troubles of the time, and to the action ofa man named Morgan. If any of those present outside the pale of Masonry are anxious to know who this man Morgan was, what he did, or what became of him, the records of our Lodge are at their disposal, and a searching examination may be made. The Lodge was resuscitated in 1854. Brothers Dr. Lundy, John W. Lewis, and Samuel Kitchen were chiefly instrumental in the work of restoration. During the twenty-seven years of the dormancy of the Lodge the records, jewels and implements, were carefully guarded by Bro. Samuel Kitchen. They were locked in a box, and for a portion of the time were concealed in a cave on the side of the mountain and covered with brushwood and leaves. I am told that it was with some reluctance that his wife parted with this treasure on the restoratiorj of the Lodge. The box is still in existence, and is in the possession of R. Wor. Bro. Forbes, The ceremony of Installation of the Officers in 1854 was performed by R. W. Bro. Sir Allan MacNab, who at this time held the responsible position of Prime Minister of the Parliament of Canada. page tw elve Of a pleasing Diversion Of seemly Joyous Festivities OF A FESTIVE OCCASION OF MUCH MERIT THE FIRST candidate initiated after the restoration of the Lodge, was Bro. Andrew Randall, who is at the present time the old- est living member of the Lodge. During the last half of this century, the Lodge has continued to hold meetings without interruption. True, it has had its days of prosperity and its days of adversity, but its old age has been strong and vigorous. The events of these years can scarcely be characterized as ancient history, but there are one or two events of which I wish to speak. I am indebted to a copy of the Canada Gazette of July 4th, 1863, for an account of a festival held on June 24th, of that year. As this event happened only thirty-six short years ago, undoubtedly some of those within the hearing of my voice were present on that occasion. The following is a brief summary. " Wednesday, June 24th, being the anniversary of St. John the Baptist, a number of the brethren of Barton, Strict Observance, St. John's and Acacia Lodges of Hamilton, with Union Lodge of Grims- by, united in celebrating the Festival of their Patron Saint, by a picnic at Grimsby. At 3:10 p.m., two car loads of the brethren and their friends, accompanied by a number of the fair sex, left the Hamilton Station by the Accommodation east. On arriving at Grimsby, the excursionists were received by the brethren of Union Lodge, who conducted I hem to a beautifully shady grove between the railway track and the lake shore. A large plot of ground had been carefully sodded for dancing, and immediately after the arrival of the party, the festivities commenced. Some found pleasure in the dance, others strolled about the woods, while more sought recreation and amuse- ment in strolling along the wave-washed shore. Thus ' all went merry as a marriage bell,' until page thirteen And of Sundry Influences Merit is Recogni::ed Epilogue History of Union Lodge six o'clock, when dinner was announced, and with appetites sharpened by the amusements of the afternoon, they gathered round the festive board. After full justice had been done to the good things, several toasts were proposed and responded to, and then dancing was resumed with renewed vigour. As the shades of evening fell, four large fires, placed on elevated positions, were lighted, throwing a bright, lurid glare over the scene. Until eleven o'clock, the dancing was kept up with great spirit, and during those few short hours, more than one susceptible city youth felt the be- witching power and sweet influence of soft tender glances from country lassies. They cannot be blamed for that though, for it is certainly almost impossible to withstand the power of those dear Grimsby girls." Another interesting event took place in March, 1873. It was the presentation of a Past Master's gold pencil, and a Royal Arch Jewel to R. W. Bro. Forbes, who was Master of the Lodge for four consecutive years. Twenty-five years later, a P. M.'s gold jewel with diamond setting was presented to his son, Wor. Bro. W. D. Forbes. It is a matter of pride and pleasure to the Masons of Grimsby, that amongst the many social and other changes of a century, Masonry has lived and flourished in this section. Fourteen lodges were established in Ontario, prior to the foundation of Union Lodge, and of these, only four are now in existence. In conclusion, may we lift the curtain and take but a glance into the dim, distant future ? Will Union Lodge be in existence a hundred years hence ? We venture not only to hope, but also predict that Masonry will be a potent factor, and an educating influence in our midst until time shall be no more. page fourteen Our Celebratio n Our celebration at Grimsby Park to-day will be an event in our history for future generations to chronicle. In the meantime, let us emulate what we consider elements of success in the characters of our ancient brethren; let us be true to the principles which Free Masonry inculcates, and by square conduct, level steps, and upright intentions, strive to ascend to those immortal mansions whence all goodness emanates. page fifteen THOSE WHO HAVE SAT IN THE EAST FROM the Records of the Union Lodge, No. 7, A.
