Mozart Hall To-Klgbt
The John T. Ford Dramatic Association,
with their usual liberal disposition to do
good as well as to amuse and eutertain the
public, are to give to-night, at Mozart Hall,
a very select parlor entertainment. The
principal object Is to introduce Miss Louisa
Clarke in character. The lady herself has
shown her liberal and charitable disposition
by always cheerfully responding, on all oc
casions when called upon, to read for auy
charity purpose. The “Fords” have also
evinced a like disposition, as the reports
published of the net proceeds of benefits
.inn. hrtlwim chnw that thov hiivp nn* nnlv
given by them show that they have not only
given pleasant and agreeable performances,
but have contributed largely to several
charitable institutions in the city.
-The bill they propose to give tanight is
fine, and selected so as to please any taste
in the theatrical line. Tragedy, farcc.sing-
iug and recitations will comprise the pro
gramme.
The price of admission will be but
twenty-live cents, and as the performance
wili be given for good object, we hope
that their efforts will be properly appreci
ated and greeted by a crowded house.
There are a good many of our citizens
whese business requires them to remain in
the city during the summer, and we trust
they, with the members of societies who
have derived a benefit from the “Fords”
liberality, will encourage them in their
efforts to inaugurate a series of summer
entertainments.

The “pale faces” of the Internal Revenue

several schools between the hours of 9 a. m.
and 2 p. m., to which all interested are in

The good order, peace and dignity of the

million of dollars for the erection of a court
house away from the region of Bay street.

At the prize drill of the Georgia Hussars
Wednesday eveuiDg it was a somewhat re
markable circumstance that the three prizes
were all won by young men in the awkward
squad, who had not passed the drill com
mittee. This anomalous state of things is
accounted fo,- by the idea that, occupying a
position in the awkward 6quad, they were
determined to get out or that posiliou
soon as possible, and hence devoted careful
attention to the 6tudy of the manual and
became efficient from determined practice.
We say, Hurrah for the awkward squad.

Found Dead.
Yesterday morniDg, about four o’clock,
some of the inmates of the house on the
northwest corner of \ ork and Lincoln
streets had occasion to go down into the
servants’ apartments in the basement of the
dwelling, and were shocked at the discovery
that the cook, an elderly negro woman
named Elizabeth Williams, was lying dead
upon the floor. Dr. Thomas was summoned
immediately, who diagnosed the case aud
found that the deceased had died of “men
strual insufficiency,” and gave a certificate
to that effect. It seems that the woman had
been under medical treatment for some
time, though attending to her ordinary du
ties, and death overtook her while preparing
for her day’s labors. The body was re
moved to the residence of her relatives on
the corner of Zubly and Fahm streets.

In yesterday’s News appeared a report of
a case of an alleged nuisance, in which Dr.
J. J. Waring et al. are plaintiffs, and Mr.
W. P. Carmichael defendant, In which it
was stated that the nuisance consisted in
the erection of three gates on the Coston
Bluff road by Mr. C. We are informed that
the gates complained of are not placed on
Coston Bluff road, but are on Mr. Carmi
chael’s plantation—one at the entrance, and
the other two enclose his barnyard.

members were appointed a committee of
arrangements for that purpose: Lieutenant

MISTOKV OF SOLOVIOV* l.VitOfi, .
No. 1, SAVANNAH, GA.
BT ITS WORSHIPFUL MASTER, BROTHER J. H. RST1LL.
From the Louisville (Kjrj Masonic Age.
The records of Solomon's Lodge, No. 1, pre
vious to the Revolution, were destroyed, proba
bly 8 n ring the occupation of Savannah by the
British forces, 1778-82. Tradition says that the
Lodge was in existence as a military Lodge in
the rear 1783. and that it was instituted by
General James Oglethorpe, the founder of the
Colony of Georgia. The Masonic records show
that it was chartered in 1735, and in the Regis
ter of the Grand Lodge of England it bears the
number 46, while its specified number in its old
charter was No. 124. The Lodge now works,
however, under a charter issued by tne Grand
Lodge of Georgia in the year 1786, and a close
examination of its minutes shows that Solo
mon's Lodge tor as it was then known. Solomon
Lodge*, actually resohed itself into a Grand
body and issued to itself this charter. It reads
as f , flows :
•We, the Grand Lodge of the most ancient
an.1 honorable fraternity of Free and Accepted
Masons, according to the old institution of tlie
State of Georgia, by virtue of. and in pursu
ance of the right and succession legally derived
from the mo.-t noble and right worshipful
Thomas Thyne. Lord Viscount Weymouth,
Grand Master of England for the year of Ma
sonry, 5735, by his warrant, ' etc.
After this preamble, which shows by its
phraseology that it is a copy of an older docu
ment, comes the usual formula and naming,
and by comparing the signatures on the charter
with the roll of the officers of the Lodge, it will
be seen that every Grand Officer was a member
of Solomon's Lodge, and had held, or was then
holding, the same relative position in it which
they held in the Grand Lodge. 1 he names
affixed are those of W. Stephens. Grand Master;
James Ja'.kscn. D. G. Master: George Hour
toun, 8. G. Warden: Thomas Elfe. J. G. War
den: James Habersham. G. Treasurer; Samuel
Stirke. G. Secretary.
This charter Is dated December 27,1786, while
the minutes of Solomon's Lodge, No. 1, now in
it9 possession, show that it was at work pre
vious to that date under its present name and
number, having assumed the seniority in num
ber a its first meeting a’ter the close of the
revolutionary war. thus proving that this ven
erable l>ody is the mother Lodge of the Grand
Lodge of the Empire State of the South, and
the oldest Masonic Lodge now in existence in
America.
Under its present charter forty-four Masters
have served, several of them holdirg office for
only six months, the By-Laws from 1795 to 18U'>
providing for semi-annual elections, probably
to provide Fast Masters to fill up the Grand
Lodge Several Masters held office for very
lung terms—R. W. Pooler for ten years consecu
tively, and then for three years more, making
thirteen years in all. while the late Richard T.
Turner was elected nineteen terms, MfBB Of
them cons-cutively. From 18 4 to 1834 the
Igjdge was independent of the Grand body, and
it was owing to this fact that it passed un
scathed through fire of the anti-Masonry ex
citement. caused by the disappearance of Mor
gan In 1835 this breach, which had been
caused by an alleged violation of an agreement
on the part of the Grand Lodge, was healed,
and Solomon’s Lodge was readmitted, retain
ing its old number (1). wtiich had in the mean
time been given to Social Lodge, No. 1. of
Augusta, and thus tc-day there ore two subor
dinate bodies in Georgia bearing this ranking
number.
There are many interesting reminiscences
connected with this ancient Lodge. When
General Washington visited the city in 1790,
among those who welcomed him, as stated in
the papers of that day. was “George Houstoun,
Grand Master of M&s-ms.' This brother was a
Baronet in the colonial times, and was called
**Sir George Houstoun" in the records of the
Lodge uo to the time of his death. He was
Master »>f the Lodge before and after the Revo
lution.
Gen-ral James Jackson, a distinguished sol
dier of the Continental armv, and who received
the surrender of Savannah from the British,
was, as the records show, also a very active
member of Solomon’s Lodge. He was Gover
nor of Georgia from 1 98 to 1801.
General (Marquis) de La Fayette, the friend
of Wrshington. and the hero of the battle of
Brandvwine, revisited America in 1825. and,
among other cities, honored Savannah with his
presence. On this occasion he officiated at the
laying of the corner stones of monuments to
two other heroes of the Revolution. General
Nathaniel Greene and Count Casimer Pulaski.
He was an honored visitor of FolomonV Lodge,
and there is now preserved amongst its archives
a sword which was pre-ented by him to the
brethren.
In later years it has nun.bereu among its
members other historic names, among them
that of the unfortunate Cuban hero. General
Narcisaa Lopez, who was garroted at Havana
by the Spaniards in 1851.
James Habersham, Esq., the first Pcn inaster
General of the United States, was for many
years an officer of this Lodge.
Among its archives is preserved a gavel made
from the oak at Sunbury where the brethren
firs assembled, and also a Bible, which, tradi
tion sajs, wes presented by General Ogle
thorpe. Of the former we will have more to
say in this article.
We find from the records that at the first
communication held after the Revolutionary
war, the Ixidge adopted a resolution not to
charge dues to members, except fr< in the
date of the evacuati- n of the city by the Brit
ish troops ; also, one appointing a committee
to look after the interest* and property of the
Lodge, ami another authorizing a committee
to provide a suitable place for the future meet
ings of the Lodge. Among the names of those
present at the first communication, after the
close of hcntilitie* in tb” la'jt century, we find
Sir George Houstoun, General James Jack*ot.
James Ilabersham. Leonard Cecil, James Box
Young, Samuel Beecroft, Janies Clark. James
Hobkirk. Thomas Palmes. George Faries, and
others, whose names are historical in our com
iuunity, and are perpetuated by descendants
now in our midst.
The meetings ijnmediately after the Revolu
tionary war were held at Mr. Joh*iLowry'-.
coffee house, which stood at the corner of
Dravton and Bay streets, where the Savannah
BanK and Trust Company's building now
stands. In 1786 the Lodge met at the house of
Brother Abraham DaCosta, and at another pe
riod during the s*me year tbt- residence of
Brother John Hamilton. From this it would
appear at that date the Lodge had m regular
meeting place, although efforts had already
been inaugurated to secure one. On March 16,
1786. Brother DaCosta took the initiatory m the
project for providing a Lodge room by present
ing, as bis contribution. the entire frame of a
house, brother T. Anderson offered to raise
the tame without expense, and Brother John
Habersham contributed the shingles necessary
to cover the same.
These gentlemen and several others were ap
pointed a committee to superintend the con
struction of the heus*, and at a subsequent
meeting they were authorized to receive dona
tions to assist id its completion.
In August, 1789, the Louge ».emov>d toCopp’s
Long Room, but the death of Brother Copp,
during the following month, necessitated an
other move, and the Lodge was transferred to
the residence of Mr. William Norman, where
meetings were held for one month, October.
1789.- After this ptriod the Lodge met regu
larly for some tirpe J)t the “Filature,’' a public-
house situated on Reynold’s Square, dn the
site now occupied by a block of buildings known
as Cas-el’s Row. This o'd landmark was de
stroved by fire about thirty-five years ago.
Nothing scejns to have been accomplished by
the committee appointed in 1786 for the pur
pose of supervisiiig the construction of a build
ing upon the contributions of Brothers DaCosta
and others, as we find the Lodge continued to
occupy the rooms in the “Filature” for many
years afterward, and subsequent proceedings
sustain the impression induced by this omissi* n
in the records, that the project was temporally
abandoned.
On the 26th of September, 1795. a committee
from the Lodge, comi-ding of James B. Young,
Worshipful Master, Thomas Palmes, Senior
Warden. ..ud Green Siu.psou. Junior Warden,
entered into an Mgreent-nt with William Child
whereby the latter leased from the Lodge the
lot of land corner of Wliitaker and President
streets, adjoining on the west the lot then oc
cupied by General Lachlan McIntosh, and
frontiu? on Whitaker street, for the period of
fifteen years, at the expiration of which time
its possession, together with such Improve
ments as the sqid Child might hnve placed
thereon, was to |>e yielded tb the said Muster
and Wardens or their successors iu office. The
price stipulated for this lot was £12 sterling
per annum, to be paid in quarterly instalments.
Thu- agreement was recorded in the offiue of
the Superior Court on the lflth of April, 1798, at
which t ine James Bulloch was clerk,
On the 3d of April, 1798, Joseph Prescott.
James Simpson, Joseph William Spencer and
James Doore, a comm’ttee fivm Solomon's
Lodge, obtained from Mr Child thirty feet of
the lot leased to him. running east, upon the
reduction of $20 in the annual rental. This
action is explained in the presentation of a re
port from a committee resjiecting the building
of a L< dge room, on the other portion of the
lot. for the use of which the thirty additional
feet were required.
On June 16, 1798, proposals were “presented
by the Standing Committee, from Brother
Heniy. for erecting a building for tho Lo,ige.
The same wa* received and read, and it was
oruered that the material* for the building be
purchased as soon as possible.”
The work was immediately commenced upon
this lot—(bounded by Whitaker, State and
President streets, and lot of General McIntosh,
on St. Jam* s Square)— and the building hail
progressed so well that on tbe 20th of March.
1799, the brethren of Solomon s Ledge, No 1,
Hiram Lodge, No. 2, and the officers of the
Grand Lodge, assembled for »he .pui^ose of
laying the Oom«r stone o£ the first Masonic
buildn.g erected within tbe limits of this State.
The procession’was formed'at fhe “Filature"
and marched to the site of the proposed edifice
on President street, between, Whitaker and
Barnard streets, where, to qnote from the
records, “Right Worshipful Master James Box
Young. Senior Warden of the Grand Lodge of
Georgia, by particular request of Solomon’s
Lodge, No. 1. placed the foundation stone lu
operative Masonic order, and depo B ited theem
blems of com, wu»e ana oil. and various pieces
of Federal m“uey, in the hollow square in the
centre of the same. The Grand Senior Wa’deii
then pronounced an elegant oration suitable to
the occasion.’’
While the hail was in process of construction
the brethren met sometimes at Mrs. Eppinger s
public house, on South Broad street, (another
h gtorical structure, by the way i. and at Brother
Child’s residence, erected on the land leased
by him from the Lodge, at the corner of Presi
dent and Whitaker streets. The old place is
yet standing, and at present occupied by Mrs.
Myers as a cigar store
The Masonic building made slow progrefs,
and in April. 1800. we find it was determined to
raise it sever, feet from the ground. From this
action we infer it was originally intended the
building should only be two stories in height,
and the brick basement was an after-bought
One brother, Simeon Wright. - n the n {^' t
above alluded £H~.e ten dollars toward raising
the building; still its construction was further
delayed for the want ot funds, when, at rast, in
October, 1800, a lottery scheme was devised for
the purpose of accomplishing tbe desired ol>-
jecLand It was proposed to issue tickets to the
number of one hundred, of the value of ten dol
lars each,redeemable alternately on the first and
fifteenth of each month, until the redemidion
was conclude* 1. the tiotaeL> being numbered
from ore to one hundred, aiid tfie lowest num
ber to take the precedence*. By this scheme
the requisite Am&unt was realized, the work
pushed, forward rapidly, and on Saturday after
noon, December 5.1801. tbe Masonic f raternitv
assemblt-d to dedicate the first Masonic Hall
built in Georgia, which was done with the usual
ceremonies.
Solomon’s Lodge is the ofiv Masonic body
surviving of tho§g that existed d uring tbe Latter
part oj tfie n*st century and tbe first part of the
p»*ent century. Among the defunct Lodge*
are Hiram’s Lodge, No. 2, L Esperance, No. 6,
and Union, No. 10, so that, in sedition to the
honor ot being the oldest Masonic body in
America, the mother cf Georgia Lodge*, Solo
mon’s Lodge enjoys the distinction of having
successfully passed through tbe severe ordea a
of wars of great magnituue, acd other vicissi
tudes and trials.
As above stated. Solomon's Lodge with the
advent of the present century occupied their
first hall, and from t h « time it would seem its
prosperity and growth was on the increa***.
They continued to occupy this building—the
double two ttory frame tenement, on brick
basement, y* t standing on President street—for
fifty-seven vears. In iSM. however, it was de
cided to sell the veoertble building, and it was
purchased, together with the adjoining lot, by
the city authorities for the purpose of erect ng
a guard house But this intention was subse
quently abandoned. an1 the property was re-
siolJ bv the city to the late John J. Kelley, who
bequeathed it to the Bethesda Orphan Bouse,
ano; her old society funded in 1750), who are
now the owners.
The Lodge however, continued to occupy a
portion of the building fur meeting purposes
for several years after its sale, as is above inti
mated. The funds derived from the sale were
properly invested and a acinmittee appointed
to purchase a suitable site for another t uilding
Tbe lot on th* northeast corner of Broughton
and Bull streets was purchased : arrangements
for building were promptly perfected, and Hie
work of construction com menced andrigon *u«ly
prosecuted On the 9ih of February. 1859. it
was c Jinp'.eted and turned ov*r to the Ledge,
and preparations were concluded for the dedi
cation of the second Masonic Hall erected by
this ancient Lodge, on the 10th of February,
the ceremonies of which were of a very im
posing character.
At night, the event was celebrated by one of
the grandest balls that had ever taken ’place in
the city, and the season wa* one freighted with
plcasaut remembrances long cherished by the
p* rticipants.
The r -ceipt of the following letter, at the first
meeting in the new hall, constituted quite a
pleasant incident :
“Sav4wxah. February 10. 1S59.
•George W. Adams. Chairman
“Committee Solomon s Loilae. Ko. 1 :
“Dear Sib —Please allow me. through you. to
present to Solomon’s Lodge. No. 1, of this city,
the accompanying gavel made from a piece of
the oak from Sunbury, Liberty county. The
late Sheftall Sheftall. my uncle, heard from bis
father. Mordeoai Sheftall, tue historical tradi
tion connected with that place. After thg tree
was burnt down, Mr. John Stevens, of Liberty
county, knowing the veneration I had for it.
procured a block of it for me, some fifteen
v«*ars since. From that block the accompany
ing gavel Is made.
"Respectfully, etc.,
“Perla Sheftall Folomoxs.”
The gavel was received and is now in use. as
is hereinbefore mentioned, and appropriate
acknowledgments were returned the donor.
On the occupation of the city by the Federal
army. December 23, 1861, the building norrowlv
escaped destruction, and it was only through
the pronr pt measures of the late General John
W. Geary, who was in command of the divia-
ion of United States troops which entered the
city, and who ordered a guard placed around
the building, with instructions to drive off the
rabble, who had already commenced sacking
the stores, that this misfortune was averted.
General Geary was Grand High Priest of the
Grand Chapter of Pennsylvania, and was after
the war elected Governor of that State.
On the 31st of October, 1865. a letter was re
ceived by Solomon’s Lodge from Colonel C. C.
Jones. Jr., of New York, formerly Mayor of
Savannah, tendering for their acceptance a
chair made o' a portion of the oak at Sunbury.
under which, if trailition be relied upon. General
Oglethorpe organized the first Masonic Lodge
of Georgia. The sla'sof the chair were made
of a Pride of China tree growing near.
The letter was received and appropriate ac
tion taken thereon.
Under date of June 7. ^1866. the Secre
tary of the Lodge, in accordance with a
resolution duly adopted and recorded, re
quested in writing Vtorshipful Brother P. M.
Richard D. Arnold, now deceased, to address
the Lo«lge in the presentation of the chair, snd
appointed tbe 21st of June as the time for the
!>erformaiice of that interest ing duty.
Un tlie evening appointed, an unusually large
number of the Fnitemity, representing fullv a
dozen States and Gr*at Britain assemble.! at
the hall al the hour announced. After an E. A.
Lodge had been opened iu due form. Worship
ful Brother P. M. Arnold was escorted to the
Lodge room by the comm ttee and proper offi
cials and was received with Masonic honors
Brother Estill. chairman of the committee ap-
l*ointed for the purpose, introduced Brother
Arnold in a few remarks Tbe speaker deliv
ered a beautiful and interesting address, from
which we give Sbme extracts us throwing light
ui>on tlie history of Solomon's L«»dge :
“The committee of this Lodge have devolved
upon me the duty of presenting to it, from the
Hon. Charles O. Jones, now of New York city,
but a native of our own Georgia, a relic which
jiossesses a double interest to us as Masons and
as Georgians, for it is intimately associated with
the great founder of Georgia. Oglethorpe a
name synonymous with courage and benevo
lence.
“The history of Freemasonry in Georgia is
inseparable from that of Oglethorpe. We are
proun to clahu him as a Brother, uroudto know
that he valued an*l appreciated tne high toned
benevolence of the Craft.
“Lying in Ps appropriate place I see before
me one. if not the most valued, of the treasures
of this, one of the oldest Ledges of A. Y. M.
now working in these United States. It is a
copv of the Bible, presented to this Lodge by
Oglethorjie. in the year 1735. which has been in
the i>o session of this Lodge since that time,
and on it have leen received the vows of hun
dreds upon hundreds who have jienetrated into
the glorious light,of our Craft through the por
tals "f Solomon’s Lod^e.
“I come now to add another material link in
the chain of memory which endears this great
and ko<k1 man in an especial manner to us.
“In ever? human breast there is a strong de
sire to possess tangible mementoes of loved
«»n»M who have preceded us to tbe land of shad
ows and death, of great national events, and of
perjons dLtingui^h-d in rjigiou* or political
Liscory. Does not fhe jewel of little intrin-ic
value liecoroe almost priceless when associated
with the fact that it was once worn by a l>eloved
one now at rest * Does not the treasured lock
of hair which may have been severed from the
lx*dy after the dews of death had settled on the
ttrow. fill us with the deepest emotions as we
press it to our lq»s ? Does not the Charter Oak
of Connecticut, and me historical Eim of Penn
sylvania. long since been cut into small sec
tions and elaborated by art. to commemorate
the important acts which w ere transacted under
their teen green and waving branche* ? Do not
1 * • •%- god reUgioua t*n+bi4*i*siti acquire renewed
force when brought into contact with some
relic of saint or martyr consecrated by our un
doubting faith ?
“Such a memento, in the name of the Hon.
Charles C. Jones. I now present, in the chair
before me.
“Amongst the finest natural situations of our
seaboard is the village of Sunbury, if it < an
now be called even a village. Its bn*ezy bluff
was shaded by many specimens of this glorious
species of oak
“Among them was one conspicuous for am
plitude of branch and extent of shade, and I
must here observe that no one who has never
seen one can form a protier notion of tlie great
surface of groupd sbgded by the largest of
then*.
“With this tree tradition has associated the
name of Ogletlwuq*®- It wasOglethonie’s Oak.
as I am trtistworthilv informed by old natives
an l former residents of the once flourishing
town of Sunbury. Grati‘ude and affection live
to foster these reminiscences, and refuse to
apply « pritfual exeges's to {.hqir tradition that
under this favorite oak the gentle and kind
founder of Georgia was a-tlist*»;i|ed to seek a
shelter from the wet. and enjoy the refreshing
sea breezps which b]ow then aud blow cow over
the blurts "f Sunbury.
“Under its spreading bran -hes. traditam as
serts that the first Masonic Lodge of Georgia
was inst tilted. Time and stonn withered tne
tree to its bare trank. Of the wood of that
trunk was constructed the frame and seat of
the nn*dest tamp chair now before you.”
For several years the subject of erecting a
handsome Masonic Temple engaged the atten
tion of Solomon's Lodge, but soiqe difficulty
was occasioned insecurih.k *heuesired l<*cation,
amliiwir^r u.Uiis no definite action was taken
iii the matter until September. 1871, when the
lot and a half, on which stood a wooden build
ing. corner of Liberty and Whitaker streets,
was purchased.
Kxcrtvation was commenced in Novejnber.
1872. and the foundation was laid so rapidly
that by the middle cf I>ecember ensuing every
thing was in readiness for laying the corner
..stone, and Thurs'2>\y. the 25th. was appointed
:;s the day f*»r that service. At half-past tw»»
o’clock lu the afternoon Solomon's Lodge mu
sembled iu force and full regalia in the hall <>o
Bull street and marched the Hite uf the new
edifice.
The stone was lowered inti', position with the
usual ceremonies, after which a short addrees
was delivered by the Grand Master, and the
exercises were concluded with the benediction,
l he attendance at this ceremony was unusually
large and brilliant, the streets in the immediate
vicinity being thronged with ladies.

have stocked their extensive warerooms
with a magnificent lot of furniture
of every description, aDd are en
abled through the facilities they
possess to offer the very lowest prices to
the public. Among their recent receipts
are fifty refrigerators of the latest patents
in walnut and ash. with water cooler com
bined. These refrigerators are of a style
that will add to the appearance of a dining
room and they possess the merit of saviug
the consumption of ice. No family* should
be without one.

most handsome patterns of matting, select
ed with special care, aud also a large assort
ment of the latest styles of window shades,
lace curtains, and an extensive stock of up
holstery goods generally. An inspection of
their extensive warerooms, 1G9 and 171
Broughton street, would certainly well repay
fhose who are in need of anything to be
found in a large and first class furniture and
carpet emporium. mh27-d<fcwif
