REPORTS OF DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS.
FIRST DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, D. D. G. M. for the first Masonic district, begs leave to report:—
There are seven chartered Lodges in this district, and one working under a dispensation. Owing to ill health I have not been able to visit all of them myself, but obtained the aid of Bros. T. J. Murray, and Stephen Perkins, P. M.
Bro. Murray visited Adoniram, No. 27 and Freedom, No. 42 ; and Bro. Perkins, Arundel, No. 76. The other Lodges I visited myself.
As I last year made a full detailed report, I do not think it necessary to record more than what is worthy of note.
Saco Lodge, No. 9, continues to advance as would be expected, under the care of W. T. J. Murray as Master. They have not only a Charity Fund, but the present year, they have obtained a respectable Library composed of some 30 or 40 volumes of standard works on Masonry; and I would beg leave to state, that in my humble opinion, a good Library is among the first things with which a Lodge should be furnished ; for with the light and information which standard works will furnish, we should be better enabled to work our way under all difficulties.
Arundel Lodge, No. 76, at Kennebunk Port, was visited by Bro. Stephen Perkins.
Page 38
He reported books well kept, and the Lodge in as thriving circumstances as could be expected. Many of the most prominent members are sea-faring men, and necessarily being absent a great part of the time, not very full meetings are the result.
York Lodge, No. 22, has not done much work the past year. They adhere to the principle, not to admit any but such as will stand the test of the Master Workman's square. Harmony is the prevailing sentiment of the Lodge.
Fraternal Lodge, No. 55, at Alfred, I visited Aug. 10th, by the request of the Master. I was in hopes they had commenced work, but I found they had not. The W. Master had procured a neat and convenient Hall, but was destitute of some necessary furniture, and also part of their regalia. There is some tardiness in some of the members, in helping to furnish the necessary furniture, in order to commence work in good order. I expected at that time that they would soon commence work, but have since learned by Bro. Murray, that they have not made much progress since I last saw them. He also reported that there was a good prospect of their commencing soon, if a little encouragement was given them. A committee has been appointed to procure all the necessary articles, and I have no doubt at the next session of the Grand Lodge, they will give a good account of their stewardship.
Oct. 2nd, by request, I visited St. John's Lodge, at South Berwick, in company with the officers of York Lodge ; and there opened a Masters' Lodge and found that a number of candidates had been balloted for; and also, that their appointed officers were old Masons, some of whom had not been in a Lodge for twenty years. It wag necessary that we should confer the degrees for them. W. M. A. Lunt conferred the three degrees on five candidates, on that and the following day, as I thought that the case demanded it. They have had to obtain assistance from W. T. J. Murray and others to assist them in working on several other occasions.
They have now collected quite a number of the first men in the place, obtained a commodious hall, fitted it up in good style, have a neat set of Jewels ; and when they receive their charter, and organize, they will have a Lodge that will do honor to the fraternity.

Adoniram Lodge. I find the Brethren still affected by the consequences of the unhappy difficulties that occurred in their Lodge in 1851, and which resulted in the chartering of a Lodge in their immediate vicinity; a circumstance much to be regretted, as it was of short duration, and for the time disabled one of our best and oldest Lodges. The Brethren are now however united, and a good spirit prevails among them. The Records of the Lodge are well kept, and their prospects more flattering than for some time past.
Freedom Lodge has probably, at no time since its removal, been in a better condition than at present, They have done a good share of work the past year; have taken much pains to inform themselves in the correct method of work and lectures, and have made good progress in the Art. The Records are well made, the brethren all united in the good work, and every thing betokens the future growth and prosperity of their Lodge.

SECOND DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of the Second Masonic District, respectfully asks leave to submit his Annual Report.
There are in this District, seven Lodges, all of which I visited in March.
Oriental Lodge, No. 13, Bridgton, is the oldest Lodge in the District. This Lodge is not in as prosperous a condition as is desirable. Its members are remotely situated from their place of meeting, and from each other, and appear to take but little interest in Masonry, (with few exceptions.) The place where they meet is very uninteresting, and derogatory to the Institution, especially to its members. They hold their Communications at North Bridgton. Stated Communications, Monday on or before full moon, two o'clock P. M. Date of Charter, March 12th, 1804. Annual Election at stated communication in October.

JOSEPH COVELL, D. D. G. M
May I, 1856.
THIRD DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned. District Deputy Grand Master of the Third Masonic District, herewith presents his annual Report.
There are in this District, eight Lodges, most of which I have visited once, and some of them a number of times each ; the others, I was not able to visit at the time fixed upon, on account of the state of my health at the time, and which had continued poor through the past winter. I therefore hope some brother may be appointed to the office the coming year, who is better able to discharge its duties, and make amends for my short comings.
Page 43
The Lodges in this district are all in a sound and healthy condition, and most of them have made large additions to their numbers, as their returns will show.
The whole number of members returned in this District the past year, are five hundred and thirty-two.
Number of initiations, one hundred and twenty.
| Amount of initiation fees, | $120 00 |
| Amount of annual fees, | 66 23 |
| Whole amount, | $186 23 |
Which has been paid to the Grand Treasurer.
A short time since, quite a number of the brethren of Harmony Lodge, of Gorham, petitioned for and received a Dispensation from the M. W. G. Master, to form a new Lodge, to be located in the village of Saccarappa, in Westbrook, to be called Temple Lodge. I understand they will apply to the Grand Lodge at this session for a, Charter.
Two of the Lodges in this District I find have, in one instance in each Lodge, infringed upon the Constitution of the Grand Lodge, by conferring the three degrees upon one and the same candidate, the same evening. But I was informed by the W. Masters, that they were extreme cases of necessity, and had their assurance that the case should not be repeated. In some instances I find the Returns of the Lodges incomplete. Some have not given the names of resident Master Masons in their vicinity, not members of any Lodge. I am therefore unable to give you the definite number of non-affiliated Masons in this District; in other cases, the Secretary has neglected to give the dates of initiation, crafting and raising.
All which is respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM ALLEN, D. D. G. Master. Portland,
May 1, 1856.

FOURTH DISTRICT
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of the Fourth Masonic District, respectfully asks leave to submit the following Report.
There are eight Lodges in this District, all of which I have visited the past year except two, and have found them in a flourishing and healthy condition.
I have received returns from all these Lodges to April 1st, with the fees, amounting to $177 48, including initiations and the annual fees, which I have paid over to the Grand Treasurer and taken his receipt for the same.
The two Lodges alluded to were King Solomon's at Waldoborough, and Bristol at Bristol, which I was prevented from visiting, owing to the extremely bad travelling; but I engaged two good brethren living in the vicinity of those Lodges, viz. Bro. S. B. Dockham to visit King Solomon's, and Bro. E. W. Stetson to visit Bristol; which duty they performed and made report to me, which was highly satisfactory.
I examined the Records and By-Laws, and found them all in excellent order.
I found harmony and brotherly love prevailing in these several Lodges, with a strong desire to comply with all the requisitions of the Grand Lodge.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
HENRY CLARK, D. D. G. Master.

FIFTH DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of the Fifth Masonic District of Maine, asks leave to submit his annual Report.
The Fifth District has been divided the past year, and five Lodges taken off and made into a new District, viz. Northern Star, Somerset, Key-Stone, Maine, and Blue Mountain Lodges, District No. 10. Two Lodges have also been taken from the Third and Fourth, and annexed to this District, which makes the fifth now a very convenient district.
There are now nine working Lodges in this district, one of which has resumed work within the year, after lying dormant for thirty years. This Lodge was annexed to this district in December last, and I was not informed of it until the last of the month, and my business was such that I could not visit it until this Spring. I found them anxious to do right, and they were on the whole, doing as well as could be expected under the circumstances.
I have visited all the Lodges in this District twice, except Waterville and Village, and some of them more. I have distributed all the necessary Blanks to the several Lodges under my superintendence, as I have received them from the Grand Secretary; and have given all the instruction in the Work and Lectures that time would permit. In fact, I spent the time while visiting the Lodges, very pleasantly to myself, and L hope with profit to them as well as pleasure. All the Lodges have made their returns up to April 1, 1856. Whole number of members, 383; initiations during the year, 80 ; fees to the Grand Lodge, $124 86; all of which I have paid over to the Grand Treasurer, and he has signed duplicate receipts therefor.
Masonry is prosperous and in a very healthy condition in this district generally, and the brethren seem to be actuated by the spirit of Friendship and Brotherly love in all their masonic intercourse with each other and with the world.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
STEPHEN WEBBER, D. D. G. Master.

SIXTH DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The District Deputy Grand Master of the Sixth Masonic District, asks leave to report—
That there are nine Lodges in the District, viz :—Amity, at Camden ; Phoenix, at Belfast; Mount Hope, at Hope; King David's, at Lincolnville; Mariner's, at Searsport; Howard, at Frankfort; Unity, at Freedom; St. John's, at Rockport; and Star in the West, at Unity. Two of these are working under Dispensation, viz., Star in the West at Unity, and St. John's at Rockport. All of these I have visited once, and some several times. I have distributed all necessary Blanks to the several Lodges under my superintendence, as I have received them from the Grand Secretary; have installed the officers elect of three Lodges, and have given such instruction as I thought proper, so far as time and opportunity would admit. I find the Lodges and brethren in general, well united.
Number of members, 335. Number initiated the past year, 63.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
JOHN GLOVER, D. D, G. Master.
Portland, May 1, 1856.
SEVENTH DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of the Seventh Masonic District, asks leave to report:—
That there are twelve working Lodges within this District, one of which, St. John's, at Bangor, is under Dispensation; and all of which, excepting Pioneer at Plantation, No. 11, Mechanic's at
Page 47
Orono, and St. John's at Bangor, I have visited once, and several of them twice or more, during the past year. R. W. Jabez True, Deputy Grand Master, visited Mechanic's Lodge on my behalf, in February last. Pioneer Lodge is located so far away that I have not found it convenient to make it an official visit, nor have I been able to find any brother travelling in that direction, whom I could deputize to perform that duty. I have distributed all the blanks and documents furnished me by the Grand Secretary, among the several Lodges within the District.
I have found, in visiting the Lodges, but two out of the twelve, fully acquainted with the Work and Lectures, as authorized by the Grand Lodge. Most of the Lodges appear to be enjoying a healthy prosperity. The Hall of Meridian Splendor Lodge at Newport, was partially destroyed by fire early in last winter, in consequence of which, their meetings and work have been suspended until recently. They have now resumed their meetings regularly.
Pacific Lodge at Exeter has, the past winter, fitted up a new and very convenient Hall, which was to have been duly consecrated on the 22d of February last, had the weather and travelling permitted.
All of the twelve Lodges have made their returns up to April 1st.
The whole number of members in this District is 436. Initiations during the past year, 62. Amount of fees to the Grand Lodge, $115 00. This sum I have paid over to the Grand Treasurer. All of which is respectfully submitted.
E. B. AVERILL, D. D. G. Master. May 1, 1856.
EIGHTH DISTRICT.
To the most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of the Eighth Masonic District, would ask leave to report—
That there are three Lodges in that District, namely, Felicity, No. 19, at Bucksport; Lygonia, No. 40, at Ellsworth; and Rising Sun,
Page 48
No. 70, at Orland. All of these I have visited once, and most of them thrice, in the course of the season; installed their Officers, by request; examined their Records and By-Laws, and found them in good condition, and received their Be turns, together with their Lodge, dues, amounting to the sum of Forty-five Dollars, twelve and a half cents.
All which is respectfully submitted.
SAMUEL CARTER, D. D. G. Master.
May 1, 1856.
NINTH DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of said District, asks leave to make his annual report.
He has attended to the duties of the office which he had the honor to receive by appointment from the Most Worshipful John Miller, Grand Master of the State of Maine, and has the pleasure to say that peace, prosperity and brotherly love prevail among all the Lodges, and a general desire to venerate the ancient landmarks and usages of the Institution; that the several members maintain a respectable character, within and without the Lodges; no cause of discipline has been reported, and no one has been expelled from the Order. The Institution is so managed, and such is the general deportment of its members, that Masonry has attained a higher character and standing than heretofore—its light stands higher and shines brighter than before; its influence is seen and felt far and wide, and its character is becoming more known and extensive, so that the community are induced to think there is some good in the Institution; and the obsolete idea that Masonry was the work of darkness and the devil is not very prevalent. These facts should
Page 49
cause the Fraternity to rejoice and be glad, and to resolve to double their diligence to advance its progress, always remembering that the greatest vigilance is required to advance any good cause ; and may all be disposed to do whatever their hands find to do with all their might, looking to the great Architect of the universe to guide and direct them, praying that he would continue to bless and prosper the Institution, and to extend its influence to earth's remotest bound, so that every brother man, however remote may be his situation, shall come under its salutary influence and be partaker of its benefits ; then will come that time predicted, when all shall know the Lord, and every man shall do to his fellow man as he would he should do to him. Then there will be one great united family of man, and all will be free and accepted Masons. So mote it be.
I have received the returns and dues of Warren and St. Croix Lodges, which amount to $27 62, which amount I have forwarded to the Grand Treasurer, by mail.
I have not received the dues from Eastern Lodge, and no return from Washington Lodge.
Agreeably to a dispensation from the M. W. John Miller, Esq., Grand Master of the State of Maine, dated September 16th, 1855, I did on the 27th day of September, A. D. 1855, at Lubec, dedicate in due and ancient form, a new and commodious Hall, built by the brethren of Washington Lodge, for their use and accommodation. It is a very handsome and convenient hall, standing on their own land, and reflects much credit on the brethren for their enterprise and spirited exertions.
All communications made to me intended for the Grand Lodge, or for the several Subordinate Lodges, have been duly attended to, and documents and blanks from time to time received, have been distributed ; a new supply will be wanted, particularly diplomas.
Being unable to visit all the Lodges in this District, I appointed some suitable brothers to perform that duty, some of whom have made their reports, which are hereunto annexed and constitute a part of this report.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
J. C. TALBOT, D. D. G. Master.

Milltown, March 19th, 1856.
Hon. J. C. Talbot—
Dear Sir :—Yours was received. I should have written you "before ; but owing to the bad travelling and storms, I have not been able to visit the Lodge until Monday evening last. I examined the work, and find the Lodge is endeavoring to work in conformity to the recommendation of the Grand Lodge at the annual Communication last May. The Records of the Lodge appear to be correctly kept;. and I trust that St. Croix Lodge will endeavor to live up to the true principles of Masonry, so that she may be a shining light in the grand constellation of Free Masonry. The present officers are— W. John Manning, Master; Sumner T. Waldron, S. Warden ; C. F. Washburn, Junior Warden ; E. N, Harris, Secretary ; F. Williams, Treasurer ; Wm. McHenry, Tyler; Alex. Gilmore, Sen. Deacon ; James Simpson, Jun. Deacon.
I have not put the names of the officers in proper form, so I will give you the names of the Stewards, which are,—A. S. Townsend and Edward Guest.
If any other information is wanted, please write and I will attend to it with pleasure.
I am, yours truly, M. HASTINGS.
Eastport, February 27, 1856.
R. W. J. C. Talbot,—
Agreeably to your request I have visited Eastern Lodge, No. 7, and beg leave to make the following Report:—
The By-Laws are the same as when you last visited the Lodge, and are strictly in accordance with the requirements of the M. W. G. Lodge and the principles and usages of the Fraternity. The Records have been kept in a regular and systematic style, and are all correct. I would here state that the Lodge was visited last Fall by Bro.
Page 51
Dockham, who had been appointed by the Grand Lodge as Grand Lecturer, from whom we got the revised Work and Lectures ; and I am happy to say, that the officers have qualified themselves, and discharge their duties correctly and promptly. This Lodge is in a flourishing condition and are constantly adding to their number those whom I trust will prove worthy brethren and be an honor to the Institution. I regret that it was not convenient for you to make us a visit, personally.
I remain, yours respectfully and fraternally,
JOHN L. BOWMAN, P. Master.
TENTH DISTRICT.
To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Maine.
The undersigned, District Deputy Grand Master of the Tenth Masonic District, asks leave to submit the following Report:—
This is a new District, composed of five Lodges, viz., Maine, No. 20 ; Northern Star, No. 28 ; Somerset, No. 34 ; Blue Mountain, No. 67, and Key-Stone, No. 80. I have distributed the doings of the Grand Lodge and the necessary blanks to the several Lodges. I have visited all the Lodges in the District in the course of the year, and found them in a sound and healthy condition. Brotherly love and harmony prevail, and I found a general disposition to keep up the "ancient landmarks" of Masonry, and guard well its portals.
The Lodges in this District are all in a flourishing condition, except Northern Star, which sensibly feels the loss of many worthy brothers, who are now members of Key-Stone Lodge. I found the brethren rather desponding, but endeavored to encourage them, as I could see nothing discouraging in their situation. They own a convenient Lodge room, decent regalia and furniture, and have about
Page 52
four hundred and fifty dollars in funds. They are rather "rusty," but have abundant talents to perfect themselves in the work and lectures.
None of the Lodges have a special Charity Fund, but consider all their funds, charity funds, except what is absolutely necessary for Lodge expenses.
The Lodges have adopted the work and lectures as approved by the Grand Lodge, except Northern Star and Somerset. I recommended to them to employ a Grand Lecturer, as they both had abundant funds for that purpose.
I do not learn that they, as yet, have taken any steps to inform themselves in the approved work and lectures.
Maine Lodge, No. 20, at Wilton, returns thirty-three members. Initiated seven. Rejected two.
Northern Star Lodge, No. 28, at North Anson. No return.
Somerset Lodge, No. 34, at Skowhegan, returns fifty-nine members. Initiated five. Resident Master Masons, not members of any Lodge, twenty-two.
Blue Mountain Lodge, No. 67, at Phillips, returns twenty-six members. Initiated five.
Key-Stone Lodge, at Solon, returns thirty-seven members. Initiated eight.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
JOHN H. WILLARD, D. D. G. Master.
