GRAND  OFFICERS'  REPORTS 


GRAND  MASTER 


To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois  of  the  Independent  Order  of 

Odd  Fellows: 

Brothers. — In  obedience  to  the  Constitution  of  this  Grand  Lodge, 
I  make  report  of  my  actions  as  Grand  Master  for  the  past  year. 

The  principles  of  our  Order  and  its  fundamental  laws  have  been 
long  tried  and  have  been  found  to  be  right  and  just.  Our  brothers 
can  live  by  them  in  peace  and  harmony.  The  needy  are  relieved;  the 
aged  and  the  orphans  are  protected  by  them. 

This  has  been  a  busy  year  in  Odd  Fellowship.  In  addition  to  the 
usual  cares  that  devolve  upon  the  Grand  Master,  there  came  with  this 
year  an  innovation  in  the  methods  of  holding  Schools  of  Instruction. 
There  also  came  that  great  calamity  to  our  brotherhood  caused  by  the 
floods  of  the  Ohio  and  Mississippi  rivers. 

The  labors  of  the  Grand  Maaster  have  tested  his  strength  and 
power  of  endurance.  Still  he  feels  that  the  honor  of  having  been  Grand 
Master  of  this  great  jurisdiction  was  worth  his  every  effort. 

No  doubt  I  have  made  many  mistakes.  To  guard  against  making 
more,  I  have  often  called  in  conference  my  associate  Grand  Lodge 
Officers  and  abided  by  their  counsel  and  advice.  I  thank  each  of  them 
for  their  splendid  services. 

The  brotherhood  at  large  have  been  unanimous  in  responding  to 
every  call  made  upon  them. 

After  having  gone  over  the  State  of  Illinois  three  separate  times 
in  the  interest  of  our  Order  and  after  having  met  thousands  and  thou- 
sands of  Brothers  and  Sisters,  I  cheerfully  commend  each  and  every 
one  of  them  as  among  the  best  people  in  the  State  of  Illinois.  I  know 
that  their  influence  for  good  is  felt  all  over  this  great  State.

VACANCIES  FILLED. 

Immediately  after  my  installation  I  received  the  resignation  of 
the  Hon.  J  Otis  Humphrey,  Past  Grand  Master  and  Past  Grand  Repre- 
sentative, as  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Odd  Fellows' 
Orphans'  Home  at  Lincoln,  Illinois. 

Brother  Humphrey  had  been  a  member  of  this  board  continuously, 
with  the  exception  of  one  year,  from  the  foundation  of  the  Home,  and 
to  him  is  due  much  of  the  success  of  the  Home.  I  am  quite  sure  that 
the  Fraternity  at  large  appreciates  his  services  and  thanks  him  for  tbe 
same. 

I  appointed  as  his  successor  Gen.  James  Henry  Harris,  Major 
General  commanding  the  Patriarchs  Militant  of  Illinois  for  quite  a 
number  of  years,  General  Harris  to  serve  one  year,  the  unexpired  term 
of  Brother  J  Otis  Humphrey.

FIRST     COMMUNICATION     TO     SUBORDINATE     AND     REBEKAH 

LODGES. 

Sullivan,  111.,  Dec.  2,  1912. 
To  the  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodges  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O. 

O.  F. — Greeting: 

Your  Grand  Master  is  more  thankful  than  he  can  express  for  the 
honor  you  have  conferred  upon  him.  He  will  during  the  year  devote 
the  major  portion  of  his  time  to  the  Order.  He  urges  upon  every 
Lodge  and  every  individual  member  that  all  matters  brought  to  his 
official  attention  should  come  to  him  in  the  regular  way,  and  that,  be- 
fore putting  the  burden  upon  him,  you  first  endeavor  to  settle  the 
matter  by  the  aid  of  your  Lodge  Deputy  and  the  law  as  announced  in 
the  Code. 

INCREASE  IN   MEMBERSHIP. 

Our  beloved  Order  in  the'  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  won  the  loving 
cup,  offered  by  Grand  Sire  John  B.  Cockrum,  for  the  largest  gain  in 
membership  last  year,  and  our  jurisdiction  now  stands  at  the  head  of 
the  column  in  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge.  I  ask  the  Brothers  and 
Sisters  of  Illinois  to  maintain  this  position. 

FRATERNALISM. 

The  basic  and  fundamental  laws  of  our  Order  are  right.  I  do  not 
expect  to  recommend  any  changes  therein.  My  endeavors  shall  be  to 
improve,  in  minor  details,  and  the  work  of  our  Order.  I  ask  every 
Brother  and  Sister  to  bring  to  bear  upon  the  problems  presented  in 
your  Lodge  room  practical  business  methods,  combined  with  a  true 
fraternal  spirit.

I  Nov.    18.    1913. 

OUR   HOMES. 

I  recommend  to  the  Brothers  and  Sisters  of  the  Order  that  each 
and  every  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodge  in  the  State  send  one  of  its 
members  to  visit  one  or  the  other  of  our  Homes  during  the  year.  I 
have  no  right  to  make  this  as  a.  request.  I  simply  urge  that  this  be 
done.  Nothing  will  inspire  your  membership  with  enthusiasm  more 
than  to  receive  such  a  report  as  a  visitor  to  either  of  the  Homes  must 
necessarily  make  upon  their  return  to  their  Lodge. 

ENDOWMENT. 

We  have  now  approximately  $80,000.00  in  the  combined  endow- 
ment funds  of  our  Homesi.  I  shall  be  pleased  if  we  can  increase  this 
amount  to  $100,000.00  by  contributions  to  be  made  to  these  funds  dur- 
ing the  year.  It  is  my  desire  that  each  Subordinate  and  Rebekah 
Lodge  contribute  to  each  of  these  funds  during  the  year  and  that  such 
contribution  be  brought  by  the  Representative  to  the  next  session  of 
our  Grand  Lodge. 

REPRESENTATIVES. 

A  custom  prevails  in  some  Subordinate  Lodges  to  elect  a  Repre- 
sentative for  a  term  of  two  years,  with  a  previous  understanding  that 
he  will  resign  after  attending  one  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  thus 
permit  some  other  Brother  to  attend  the  following  year.  Practically 
making  the  term  of  Representative  one  year,  when  the  law  provides 
it  shall  be  two  years;.  Your  Grand  Master  is  decidedly  in  favor  of  a 
Representative  serving  two  years.  If  he  is  faithful  and  makes  a  good 
report,  upon  his  return  to  his  home  Lodge,  of  the  proceedings  of  the 
Grand  Lodge,  I  believe  it  is  wisdom  to  re-elect  him  for  another  term 
of  two  years. 

DROPPED  FOR  NON-PAYMENT  OF  DUES. 

One  of  the  most  serious  problems  confronting  our  Order  isi  the 
solution  of  the  problem  how  to  prevent  "dropping  for  non-payment  of 
dues."  At  the  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  1911  a  committee  was 
appointed  to  investigate  and  report  upon  this  question.  The  session 
just  recently  closed  continued  the  committee,  with  instructions  to  co- 
operate with  the  Grand  Master  in  this  matter.  During  the  coming 
year  a  circular  letter  will  be  directed  to  the  various  secretaries  asking 
for  information  xipon  this  question.  I  earnestly  request  prompt  and 
complete  answers  be  given  to  these  inquiries.  I  desire  that  all  financial 
secretaries  use  their  best  endeavors  to  keep  the  accounts  of  every 
member  of  the  Lodge  so  that  every  member  will  always  be  beneficial. 
After  a  Brother  becomes  non-beneficial  it  is  but  a  short  step  to  being 
dropped  for  non-payment  of  dues.

RITUALISTIC  WORK. 

The  lessons  and  teachings  of  our  Order  are  second  to  none.  It 
should  be  the  desire  of  every  Lodge  to  render  the  ritualistic  work  in 
each  degree  so  that  the  proper  lesson  be  conveyed  to  the  candidate. 
When  the  ritualistic  work  is  properly  performed  the  candidate  will 
surely  receive  the  lessons  meant  by  the  founders  of  the  Order. 

SCHOOLS  OF   INSTRUCTION   FOR  THE  COMING  YEAR. 

In  the  past,  twenty-five  or  more  Schools  of  Instruction  of  one  day 
each  have  been  held  throughout  the  State.  At  these  Schools  of  Instruc- 
tion it  has  been  attempted  to  instruct  in  all  four  of  the  degrees,  also 
there  has  been  some  oratory  and  banqueting.  Trying  to  retain  so  much 
information  has  caused  confusion,  this  was  apparent  to  all  who  at- 
tended. It  will  be  my  purpose  -to  hold  at  least  ten  Schools  of  Instruc- 
tion of  three  days  each.  Then  each  degree  will  have  due  consideration. 
These  schools  to  be  located  in  such  cities  that  will  be  most  easy  of 
access,  considering  hotel  and  railroad  facilities,  for  the  accommodation 
of  the  Brothers.  No  banquet  will  be  expected.  These  Schools  will  be 
for  work. 

LODGE    DEPUTY. 

The  Lodge  Deputy  should  be  a  Brother  or  Sister  in  whom  the  entire 
Lodge  has  confidence,  as  to  frankness  and  true  fraternalism.  Upon 
receipt  of  this:  letter  I  direct  that  you  proceed  to  select  by  vote  of  the 
Lodge  a  qualified  Past  Grand  or  Past  Noble  Grand  from  among  your 
members  for  the  office  of  Lodge  Deputy  for  the  ensuing  year.  The 
Lodge  Deputy  recommended  should  be  well  posted  in  the  unwritten 
work  and  have  a  clear  conception  of  the  ritualistic  work.  Harmony 
in  the  Lodge  depends  to  a  great  extent  upon  the  Lodge  Deputy. 

CONCLUSION. 

There  is  no  organization  among  men  that  can  do  more  good  for 
humanity  in  general  than  our  organization.  We  care  for  the  orphan, 
the  widow  and  the  aged.  We  render  kindly  service  to  the  Brothers 
and  Sisters  in  distress.  We  have  an  army  of  over  150,000  Brothers  and 
Sisters  in  Illinois.  Let  us  remember  that  the  reputation  of  our  great 
Order  depends  upon  the  fidelity  with  which  each  one  of  us  keeps  the 
faith. 

The  Supreme  Ruler  of  the  Universe  has  looked  down  upon  and 
approved  the  conduct  of  our  Order,  and  permitted  us  to  prosper  beyond 
our  expectations.

PAMPHLET  ON   ODD   FELLOWSHIP. 

On  January  1,  1913,  in  compliance  with  legislation  passed  by  the 
last  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge,  I  appointed  John  H.  Sikes,  Grand 
Secretary;  James  Ewing  Davis,  Grand  Representative;  and  H.  M. 
Blood,  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors,  as  a  special  committee  to 
prepare  a  pamphlet  on  Odd  Fellowship  for  general  distribution  among 
the  fraternity  in  Illinois.  Fifty  thousand  of  the  following  pamphlets 
prepared  by  this  committee  have  been  printed  and  distributed  through- 
out the  State.  Many  incidents  of  special  good  resulting  from  this 
pamphlet  can  be  related  by  those  who  have  had  charge  of  its  distri- 
bution. 

The  pamphlet,  as  printed  below,  was  interspersed  with  reduced 
pictures  that  appear  in  the  Picture  Book  of  Our  Homes  and  are

In  sharing  the  sorrows  of  others 
Your  own  are  less  hard  to  bear. 

Do  something  for  somebody,  striving 
To  help  where  the  way  seems  long, 
And  the  homeless  hearts  that  languish 
Cheer  up  with  a  little  song. 

Do  something  for  somebody  always, 
"Whatever  may  be  your  creed, 
There's  nothing  on  earth  can  help  you 
So  much  as  a  kindly  deed.

To  smooth  out  the  wrinkles  of  care, 
Do  something  to  cheer  up  the  lonely 
That  you  have  with  you  everywhere."

INDEPENDENT  ORDER  OF  ODD  FELLOWS. 
Its  Origin. 

April  26th,  1819,  in  the  City  of  Baltimore,  five  men  out  of  the 
ordinary  walks  of  life,  with  palms  calloused  and  muscles  hardened  by 
manual  labor,  gathered  in  a  candle-lighted  room  and  then  and  there 
planted  seed  recently  imported  from  England,  which  took  root  and 
grew  into  a  mighty  oak  of  human  achievement,  the  Independent  Order 
of  Odd  Fellows.  Conceived  and  nurtured  by  men  who  felt  the  need  of 
brotherly  love,  men  who  had  left  the  homes  of  their  childhood  and 
taken  up  the  struggle  of  life  in  a  new  country.  Odd  Fellowship  has 
ever  been  on  the  side  of  and  very  near  to  the  man  who  needs  a  friend. 

The  Order  today  numbers  thousands  on  its  rolls  who  are  blessed 
with  a  full  share  of  this  "world's  goods,"  but  it  has  never  forgotten — 
yea,  it  is  proud  of  its  humble  beginning.  The  man  of  wealth  may  and 
does  seek  membership,  but  his  wealth  alone  could  not  gain  him  admit- 
tance in  one  of  our  smallest  Lodges. 

OUR    MEMBERS. 

Odd  Fellowship  replenishes  and  increases  its  ranks  from  that 
great  "Middle  Class,"  if  we  may  use  the  term,  from  which  our  presi- 
dents have  come  and  from  which  the  nation's  defenders  most  always 
come. 

Odd  Fellowship  does  not  concern  itself  with  the  religious  beliefs 
of  men,  other  than  that  they  shall  believe  in  a  Supreme  Being.  It 
leaves  to  the  individual  conscience  of  its  members  the  right  to  worship 
God  according  to  the  light  given  them. 

Odd  Fellowship  carries  out  to  a  practical  conclusion  the  belief  in 
the  "Fatherhood  of  God  and  the  Brotherhood  of  Man." 

"With  the  divisions  and  classifications  of  human  society  our  Order 
holds  no  fellowship."  Men  of  any  and  all  political  beliefs  meet  on 
common  ground  and  under  a  common  flag — The  Stars  and  Srtipes. 

FRATERNAL  AND  BENEFICIAL. 

The  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows  is  a  beneficial  as  well  as 
fraternal  Order.  It  obligates  iself  alike  to  every  member,  rich  or  poor, 
that  in  case  of  sickness  he  shall  receive  out  of  the  common  treasury 
a  fixed  amount  each  week,  and  that  such  weekly  benefit  shall  not  be 
considered  "charity,"  but  that  to  which  he  is  fully  entitled,  as  a  matter 
of  right.  It  also  contracts  with  every  member  that,  in  the  event  of 
death,  his  body  shall  have  a  decent  burial. 


Tuesday.         I        GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.                                 2S 
Nov.     18.     1913.  ) ~ 

Our  obligations  go  out  further  than  to  the  member  alone.  They 
take  in  the  wife,  if  she  becomes  a  widow,  and  the  children  of  a  member, 
if  they  become  orphans. 

This  Order  in  the  beginning  recognized  and  has  ever  cherished 
the  principle  that  being  a  real  brotherhood  we  are  bound  to  take  the 
place  of  our  deceased  brother  to  the  extent  of  our  ability  in  the  rearing 
.and  educating  his  orphaned  children. 

OUR  ORPHANS'   HOME. 

To  this  end  we  have  built  and  equipped  an  Orphans'  Home  at 
Lincoln,  Illinois,  consisting  of  158V2  acres  of  land  and  seven  main 
buildings,  viz.:  Administration,  School  and  Chapel,  Domestic  Science, 
Manual  Training  and  Dormitories.  Total  value  two  hundred  thousand 
dollars  ($200,000.00).  Here  our  children  are  taken  in,  clothed,  fed  and 
educated.  They  receive  a  training  which,  in  most  cases,  it  would  be 
impossible  for  the  parents  to  give,  if  living.  They  are  not  only  trained 
in  the  usual  school  branches,  but  each  one  is  fitted  for  some  useful 
occupation  so  that,  when  they  shall  have  reached  maturity  and  become 
men  and  women,  they  will  be  able  to  take  their  places  in  our  citizen- 
ship and  become  useful  members  thereof. 

We  maintain  a  modern  manual  training  school  for  our  boys  and 
a  domestic  science  school  for  our  girls,  in  addition  to  the  eight  grades 
of  the  common  school. 

While  many  of  the  children  in  our  home  have  come  from  parents 
who  have  suffered  and  died  from  tuberculosis  and  are  therefore  in  a 
low  state  of  physical  development,  our  system  of  life  at  the  Home, 
with  its  wholesome  and  nourishing  food,  its  fresh  air  and  pleasant 
surroundings,  has  made  a  wonderful  record  for  turning  out  physically 
and  mentally  perfect  young  men  and  women.  Our  Orphans'  Home  at 
Lincoln  is  a  home  in  every  respect  and  not  an  institution.  It  is  not 
a  charity,  but  comes  to  our  orphaned  children  as  a  matter  of  right, 
because  of  the  membership,  in  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Felliws, 
of  their  fathers  when  living. 

OUR  OLD  FOLKS'  HOME. 

This  Order  owns  and  maintains  at  Mattoon,  Illinois,  an  Old  Folks' 
Home,  consisting  of  136  acres  of  land,  the  Home  buildings,  Chapel, 
etc.,  valued  at  one  hundred  and  seventy-five  thousand  dollars  ($175,- 
000.00).  Here  an  Odd  Fellow  may  go,  who  has  reached  that  age  when 
he  or  his  wife,  or  both,  shall  no  longer  be  able  to  stand  the  pace  in 
this  life  of  rush  and  struggle,  not  as  a  matter  of  charity,  but  as  a 
matter  of  right,  and  there  in  peace  and  comfort  spend  the  remaining 
years  of  their  lives.     With  physicians  and  nurses  in  constant  attend-

ance  to  minister  to  their  bodily  ailments,  the  best  the  market  affords 
is  provided  and  placed  within  their  reach,  that  those  who  are  not 
actually  sick  may  enjoy  the  bountiful  blessings  of  a  greatly  prospered 
fraternity. 

ODD    FELLOWSHIP    IS   WORLD   WIDE. 

Odd  Fellowship  is  not  confined  to  any  one  location  or  even  state, 
but  its  members,  Lodges  and  institutions  are  spread  far  and  near 
throughout  this  broad  land  and  everywhere  in  North  America  and  be- 
yond the  seas.  Wherever  men  enjoy  liberty  of  thought  and  action 
there  may  be  found  the  three  links  of  Friendship,  Love  and  Truth. 

With  more  than  two  million  men  and  women  banded  together  for 
unselfish  reasons,  this  mighty  army  triumphs  over  the  forces  of  ad- 
versity and  brings  light  and  happiness  into  thousands  of  homes  which 
would  otherwise  be  dark  and  dreary,  indeed. 

THE  LARGEST  FRATERNAL  ORGANIZATION. 

This  is  the  largest  fraternal  organization  in  point  of  numbers  in 
the  world.  From  the  rocky  coast  of  Maine  to  the  Golden  Gate  and 
from  the  land  of  "nine  months  winter"  to  perpetual  summer,  members 
of  this  Order  are  found,  and  the  traveler  receives  a  hearty  welcome 
because  he  is  an  Odd  Fellow. 

OUR  CREED. 

The  teachings  of  Odd  Fellowship  are  broad  and  liberal  in  the  ex- 
treme. What  an  Odd  Fellow  is  bound  to  do  for  a  fellow  member  he  is 
taught  that  he  ought  to  do  for  those  who  are  not  members.  No  man 
can  enter  into  the  practice  and  teachings  of  Odd  Fellowship  without 
becoming  more  liberal  in  his  thought  and  action  towards  his  fellow 
men,  a  better  citizen,  a  better  father,  husband  or  brother  and  enlarging 
the  sphere  of  his  usefulness.  To  the  young  man  it  is  an  inspiration; 
to  the  middle  aged  man,  a  support,  and  to  the  aged,  comfort. 

This  Order  wars  against  vice  in  all  its  forms.  No  true  Odd  Fellow 
will  give  aid  or  comfort  to  the  enemies  of  society.  The  laws  of  the 
land  are  paramount  and  to  break  the  laws  is  to  forfeit  membership  in 
the  Order.  Odd  Fellowship  stands  upon  high  moral  ground  and  fights 
for  the  home  and  humanity. 

Many  men  who  are  now  taking  their  places  among  the  most  suc- 
cessful business  men,  or  are  leaders  in  public  affairs,  received  their 
early  training  in  an  Odd  Fellows'  Lodge  room.  Participation  in  the 
Lodge  room  has  had  the  effect  of  bringing  out  and  developing  latent 
abilities  that  would  otherwise  have  remained  obscure,  to  the  loss,  not 
only  of  the  individual,  but.  to  our  state  and  country.

A   CHARACTER   BUILDER. 

This  Order  is  a  builder  of  character.  It  abhors  deception  and 
cherishes  the  truth.  Its  influence  is1  felt  everywhere  and  always  on  the 
side  of  good  citizenship,  honesty  as  between  man  and  man  and  obed- 
ience to  law  and  order. 

Any  man  of  good  moral  character,  in  good  bodily  health  and  a 
believer  in  a  Supreme  Being,  willing  to  subscribe  to  our  laws  based 
upon  the  foregoing  general  principles,  may  seek  membership,  and,  if 
accepted,  be  afforded  opportunity  to  participate  in  the  work  of  our 
Order  where  more  is  accomplished  with  little  money  than  can  possibly 
be  hoped  for  if  expended  as  an  individual.  Five,  six  or  seven  dollars 
a  year,  as  the  case  may  be,  maintains  a  membership  in  this  great  Order, 
and,  added  to  a  like  amount  from  one  hundred  thousand  other  members 
in  Illinois,  produces  the  fund  out  of  which  our  work  is  financed. 

NOT  ADMITTED. 

It  does  not  admit  saloon-keepers,  bartenders  or  professional 
gamblers  to  membership. 

COST. 

The  expense  of  all  of  the  degrees  in  a  Subordinate  Lodge  is  from 
fourteen  ($14.00)  to  twenty-five  ($25.00)  dollars,  according  to  the  fees 
charged  by  the  Lodge  in  which  you  make  application.  The  dues  aver- 
age from  four  ($4.00)  to  eight  ($8.00)  dollars  per  year,  payable 
quarterly. 

INVITATION. 

Would  you  like  to  identify  yourself  with  this  great  fraternal  and 
beneficial  organization — The  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows? 

FRIENDSHIP. 

'"Tis  friendship   that  ties  men   together  as   brothers, 
When  one  shares  success  with  the  failure  of  others, 
And  Heaven  will  bless  them  who  cheerfully  give 
Their  time  and  their  talent  in  helping  men  live. 
What  virtue  this  friendship  has  gathered  in  store, 
Will  rest  in  the  bosom  of  love  evermore, 
And  these  with  the  emblem  of  truth  will  adorn, 
The  life  that  plants  roses  where  once  was  a  thorn."

SCHOOLS  OF  INSTRUCTION. 

On  January  4,  1913,  a  conference  of  Grand  Lodge  officers  was  held 
in  Bloomington,  Illinois,  to  determine  upon  the  character  and  length 
of  the  Schools  and  the  places  where  the  Schools  would  be  held. 

The  first  one  of  these  Schools  was  called  to  be  held  in  Springfield, 
Illinois,  beginning  January  27th.  Notice  of  this  School  was  sent  out  to 
the  Lodges  easily  accessible  to  Springfield,  by  the  following,  circular:

At  the  conference  of  the  Grand  Lodge  officers  held  in  Bloomington. 
above  mentioned,  it  was  decided  to  hold,  and  -Schools  were  held,  in

Special  Sessions  of  the  Grand  Lodge  were  held  at  the  same  timo 
as  the  Schools  at  Quincy,  Olney  and  East.  St.  Louis. 

At  a  later  date  it  was  determined  to  hold  a  school  of  instruction 
at  Champaign,  September  10  and  11,  and  at  Monmouth  a  School  and 
Special  Session  of  the  Grand  Lodge,  October  21  and  22. 


30  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  [N    Tu^da^( 


/  Nov.    18.    1013 


Each  of  these  Schools  and  Special  Sessions  was  advertised  by 
a  circular  similar  to  the  one  used  for  Springfield  and  in  addition  there- 
to there  went  from  the  Grand  Master's  office  to  each  Lodge  and  to 
every  District  Grand  Master  in  the  counties  surrounding  the  city  where 
the  School  was  being  held,  a  circular  letter  urging  the  Brotherhood  to 
attend. 

The  Grand  Master,  Deputy  Grand  Master,  Grand  Secretary,  Chief 
of  Examiners  and  Instructors,  all  attended  the  majority  of  these 
Schools.  Many  of  them  were  attended  by  other  Grand  Lodge  Officers, 
by  Directors  of  Work,  District  Deputy  Grand  Masters  and  Degree  Staff 
Captains. 

It  was  not  possible  for  the  Grand  Master  to  attend  all  of  these 
Schools.  Those  he  did  attend  demonstrated,  far  beyond  his  expecta- 
tions, the  great  interest  that  the  Brotherhood  has  taken  in  the  proper 
exemplification  of  the  Ritualistic  work  and  I  do  not  hesitate  to  say 
that  the  good  done  by  these  schools  will  be  far  reaching  and  lasting; 
and  that  the  effects  of  these  schools,  should  they  be  not  continued,  will 
be  seen  and  appreciated  for  at  least  five  years  yet  to  come. 

There  was  upon  an  average  fifty  Lodges  represented  at  each  of 
these  Schools.  Many  of  the  Brothers1  came  over  one  hundred  miles  in 
very  inclement  weather  and  staid  until  the  School  was  over,  not 
missing  a  session. 

Brother  Blood,  Brother  Darnall  and  Brother  Abney  I  have  not 
seen  beaten  in  their  respective  rolls.  While  it  was  no  part  of  Brother 
Darnall's  duty  to  assist  Brother  Blood  and  Brother  Abney  in  conduct- 
ing these  Schools,  I  do  not  believe  he  missed  any  of  them,  nor  did 
Brother  Blood  and  Brother  Abney  only  a  few. 

As  an  illustration  of  the  regard  in  which  our  Chief  of  Examiners 
and  Instructors  and  Deputy  Grand  Master  is  held  by  the  Fraternity, 
I  desire  to  say  that  during  the  School  at  East  St.  Louis  Brother 
Wiikerson,  the  Grand  Secretary  of  the  State  of -Missouri,  was  present  at 
one  or  two  of  the  sessions. 

Through  the  office  of  Grand  Secretary  Sikes,  Brother  Wiikerson 
invited  Brother  Blood  and  Brother  Darnall  to  come  to  St.  Louis  as  the 
guests  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Missouri  and  render  just 
such  a  School  as'  had  been  given  throughout  Illinois  by  these  Brothers. 
Brother  Sikes  accepted  the  invitation  upon  the  part  of  Brother  Blood 
and  Brother  Darnall  and  they  visited  St.  Louis  June  20  and  21.  After 
their  return  to  Illinois  your  Grand  Master  wrote  a  letter  to  Brother 
Wiikerson  and  received  in  reply  the  letter  as  follows:

John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master, 

Sullivan,  111. 
Dear  Brother  Jennings: 

I  have  your  letter  of  late  date  and  note  your  desire  in  regard  to 
wanting  the  paper  giving  an  account  of  Brothers  Darnall  and  Blood's 
visit  to  this  city.  I  am  herewith  enclosing  you  the  National  Rebekah, 
which  gives  the  best  account.  A  visit  from  these  Brethren  to  St. 
Louis  was  one  of  'splendid  inspiration.  I  believe  it  was  generally 
•conceded  to  be  "the  best  meeting  of  the  kind  ever  held  in  the  city; 
which  was  largely  attended  by  Representatives  from  all  over  the  state. 
Every  single  one  of  them  were  delighted  and  claimed  to  be  very  much 
benefited.  These  two  Brethren  can  always  draw  a  big  crowd  in  St. 
Louis,  because  they  are  justly  worthy  of  it,  and  our  people  seem  to  be 
appreciative  of  such  efforts  put  forth  by  them. 
With  kind  regards,  I  am, 

Fraternally  yours, 

J.  W.  WILKERSON, 

Grand  Secretary. 
And  enclosed  copy  as  per  letter,  as  follows: 

A  MESSAGE  FROM  ILLINOIS  TO  MISSOURI. 

Brother  J.  W.  Wilkerson,  Grand  Secretary,  and  Brother  H.  A. 
Hamilton,  Grand  Master,  of  Missouri,  had  told  us  about  a  meeting  to 
be  held  in  St.  Louis  on  June  20  and  21,  at  which  would  be  present 
Deputy  Grand  Master  Warren  C.  Darnall  and  Chief  of  Examiners  and 
Instructors  H.  M.  Blood,  of  Illinois.  When  I  left  Kansas  City  for  St. 
Louis  on  the  morning  of  June  20,  it  was  in  the  same  mental  attitude  of 
that  "doubting  Thomas"  of  long  ago.  The  thought  uppermost  in  my 
mind  was:     "You  will  have  to  show  me" — and  I  was  shown. 

I  arrived  in  St.  Louis  a  little  late,  and  when  I  reached  the  hall 
could  hardly  get  in  because  of  the  vast  crowd  assembled.  I  saw  Past 
Grand  Master  Hiram  Lloyd  sitting  on  the  floor  and  I  immediately 
appropriated  the  seat  next  to  his.  I  remarked  to  him  that  all  of  St. 
Louis  must  be  there;  but,  on  looking  over  the  audience,  I  saw  gathered 
there  the  boys  from  all  parts  of  Missouri,  the  critics;  and  I  said  to 
myself,  "Illinois  would  better  make  good,  for  Missouri  is  watching." 

Our  Grand  Master,  Brother  Hamilton,  in  his  usual  happy  vein, 
introduced  Brother  H.  M.  Blood,  who  proceeded  in  pleasant,  yet  force- 
ful manner,  to  explain  the  purpose  of  the  Initiatory  Degree,  the  lesson 
it  should  teach,  and  how,  in  his  judgment,  it  ought  to  be  done.  And 
before  he  was   through  we   feel   sure  that  everyone   in   that  vast  as- 


32  JOURNAL   OF   PROCEEDINGS  j  Nov' "i  s''"p 


/  Nov.    18.    1913. 


semblage  was  saying,  as  I  was.  "Why  didn't  we  think  of  that  before?" 
And  when  he  was  through,  although  the  heat  was  intense  and  the  hour 
was  late,  only  a  few  of  the  older  brethren  left. 

Brother  Darnall  was  then  introduced  and  gave  just  as  thorough 
instruction  in  the  First  Degree,  leading  step  by  step  through  this 
beautiful  degree  of  Friendship,  contrasting  the  old  way  with  the  new; 
and  when  he  had  finished  we  were  convinced  that  Illinois  has  a  mes- 
sage, not  only  for  Missouri,  but  for  every  jurisdiction  under  the 
Sovereign  Grand  Lodge. 

On  Saturday  night  the  same  big  crowd  was  there,  eagerly  waiting 
for  instruction  in  the  other  two  degrees,  and  they  were  not  to  be  dis- 
appointed, for  the  interpretation  of  the  meaning  and  the  impersonation 
of  the  characters  of  the  Second  Degree  were  so  true  to  life  and  so 
deeply  impressive  that  those  who  came  to  learn  went  away  filled  to 
overflowing  with  new  enthusiasm.  Their  instruction  in  the  Degree  of 
Truth  was  no  less  impressive  than  in  those  that  preceded.  Brothers 
Blood  and  Darnall  have  thoroughly  studied  the  characters  employed  in 
our  degrees  and  they  have  a  clear  perception  of  the  lessons  to  be  taught 
the  candidate;  and  they  make  the  most  of  every  opportunity  to  em- 
phasize these  truths  and  to  fix  deep  in  the  heart  the  principles  of  Odd 
Fellowship.  The  novitiate,  when  thus -taught,  cannot  help  understand- 
ing the  principles  of  fraternity  when  they  are  through  with  him. 
Missouri  is  under  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  these  Brothers,  both  of  whom 
are  busy  business  men,  for  coming  to  our  jurisdiction — just  as  they  go 
about  in  their  own  jurisdiction — "without  money  and  without  price" — 
other  than  their  expenses.  The  good  they  have  done  will  live  after 
them,  going  on  and  on  to  help  future  generations.  Missouri  will  never 
be  unmindful  of  the  sacrifice  they  made  in  coming  to  St.  Louis,  and 
we  graciously  acknowledge  the  debt  we  owe  them.

Brother  Wilkerson  also  wrote  Brother  Darnall  under  date  of  June 
28,  as  follows:

Hon.  Warren  Darnall,

Dear  Brother  Darnall: 

Enclosed  please  find  check  of  $15.00  to  reimburse  you  for  car  fare 
paid  on  your  trip  to  this  city  last  week.  I  presume  you  have  begun 
to  think  that  I  was  not  going  to  send  you  this.  Really,  I  have  been 
so  awful  busy  all  week  that  I  have  just  deferred  this  from  moment  to 
moment. 

I  wrote  Brother  Sikes  about  your  meeting  here,  what  a  splendid 
success  it  was,  what  amount  of  good  that  you  and  Brother  Blood  did. 
and  how  pleasant  and  agreeable  you  were  at  all  times,  and  how  strongly

the  boys  all  fell  in  love  with,  you  and  all  those  sort  of  things.  Really, 
the  boys  are  still  talking  about  our  meeting.  Once  in  a  while  you

going  to  forget  you  and  Brother  Blood  for  this  kindness.  I  want  you  to 
feel  and  know  that  we  will  forever  consider  ourselves  under  lasting 
obligations  for  the  splendid  favor  growing  out  of  that  meeting. 

Hoping  you  are  feeling  good  and  getting  a  superlative  degree  of 
pleasure  out  of  this  old  life.  I  am. 

Sincerely  your  friend, 

J.   W.   WILKERSON. 

Grand  Secretary. 

I  cannot  commend  too  highly  the  efforts  of  the  Brothers,  Degree 
Staffs  and  Instructors  who  have  taken  part  in  these  Schools  during  the 
past  year. 

From  the  foregoing  section  on  Schools  of  Instruction  and  from  the 
report  of  Brother  H.  M.  Blood,  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors,  and 
of  Brother  Abney,  his  assistant,  printed  herewith,  to  which  I  call  your 
special  attention,  and  Brother  Darnall's  report,  I  feel  secure  in  recom- 
mending to  the  Grand  Lodge  a  larger  appropriation  with  which  to  de- 
fray the  expenses  of  these  Schools  of  Instruction  in  the  future.  There 
should  be  more  of  them  and  they  should  cover  the  jState  more  generally 
than  we  have  been  able  to  do  in  the  year  just  passed. 

FLOOD  AND   RELIEF. 

The  great  jurisdiction  of  Illinois,  although  third  in  the  galaxy  of 
the  jurisdictions  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  as  to  members,  has  al- 
ways been  first  to  respond  to  the  cry  for  relief.  This  is  true  datiner 
back  as  far  as  the  great  Chicago  fire  and  covering  all  the  national 
and  local  calamities  down  to  date. 

The  Odd  Fellows  of  Illinois  have  ever  been  prompt  and  liberal  in 
their  response  to  any  call  made  upon  them  for  relief,  either  of  national 
or  local  character. 

The  year  1913  brought  with  it  calls  for  relief,  both  national  and 
local,  and  Illinois  responded  with  its  old  time  and  usual  promptness  and 
liberality. 

The  jurisdiction  of  Ohio  was  the  first  afflicted  by  want  and  distress. 
Next  came  an  appeal  for  aid  from  our  own  State  along  the  borders  of 
the  Ohio  and  Mississippi  rivers  in  Southern  Illinois. 

On  account  of  the  forethought  of  the  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  in 
having  a  special  relief  fund  on  hand,  it  was  within  the  power  of  the 
Grand  Master  to  respond  immediately  to  the  appeal  for  aid  that  came 
from  the  jurisdiction  of  Ohio. 

—3 


34 JOURNAL   OF    PROCEEDINGS  {  NovTUildaI<)13. 

The  wisdom  of  keeping  a  special  relief  fund  on  hand  in  our  juris- 
diction has  been  demonstrated  over  and  over  again. 

When  local  relief  was  needed  for  our  Brothers  and  Sisters  in 
southern  Illinois,  the  Grand  Master  sent  out  an  appeal  to  the  Sub- 
ordinate Lodges  for  aid.  The  response  to  that  appeal  ought  to  con- 
vince every  thinking  man  that  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows 
does  the  things  for  which  it  stands  and  does  them  promptly  and  well. 

The  Grand  Master  desires  to  thank  every  Lodge  and  individual 
who  contributed  to  this  relief  fund  and  recommends  a  vote  of  thanks 
of  this  Grand  Lodge  be  extended  to  each  Lodge  and  individual  who 
contributed  to  this  fund  and  to  the  committee  who  distributed  the 
fund. 

Personally,  the  Grand  Master  could  not  superintend  the  distribu- 
tion of  this  fund  and,  to  act  for  him,  he  appointed  as  a  Special  Com- 
mittee for  that  purpose  Past  Grand  Master  Henry  A.  Stone,  of  Van- 
dalia,  chairman;  H.  G.  Cormick,  Past  Grand  Conductor,  of  Centralia, 
secretary,  and  I.  C.  Abney,  Assistant  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instruc- 
tors, of  Creal  Springs,  treasurer. 

This  committee  distributed,  including-  the  $1,000.00  sent  to  Ohio, 
over  $4,093.93,  as  will  appear  from  their  detailed  report  hereto 
attached. 

The  loyal  Lodges  and  Brothers  of  Illinois,  in  response  to  the  appeal 
for  assistance,  contributed  the  sum  of  $5,094.75,  $120.00  of  which  was 
contributed  by  graduates  from  the  Odd  Fellows'  Orphans'  Home  at 
Lincoln. 

Could  anything  speak  more  highly  for  the  loyalty  of  our  Brother- 
hood and  the  teachings  of  our  Home  than  the  above  fact? 

I  would  not  feel  that  I  had  done  this  subject  justice  unless  I 
had  credited  in  this  report  Woodlawn  Park  Lodge  No.  825  with  having 
sent  the  first  contribution,  to-wit:  $50.00,  to  your  Grand  Master,  even 
before  any  appeal  had  been  made  for  relief;  he  having  received 
the  same  and  forwarded  it  to  Grand  Secretary  Sikes,  March  26,  1913. 

The   Details. 

The  first  information  your  Grand  Master  received  in  regard  to 
need  of  relief  came  in  the  following  telegram  from  Past  Grand  Master 
Hubbard: 

March   29,   1913. 
John  E.  Jennings.,  Sullivan,  111.: 

Just  received  following  telegram.  Grand  Master  Try;  Ohio  swept 
by  flood,  great  suffering.  Rush  money.  Telegram  intended  for  you  as 
Grand  Master.     Suggest  that  you  attend  to  this  immediately.

ance.

Ohio,  Indiana  and  Illinois.  Your  Grand  Master  telegraphed,  under  date

SECRETARY. 

Lexington,  Ky.,  March  29,  1913. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master,  Sullivan,  111. 

Dear  Brother  Jennings:— I  received  your  telegram  this  morning 
and  want  to  express  to  you  the  thanks  of  the  Odd  Fellows  of  Ken- 
tucky for  your  interest  in  offering  to  extend  assistance. 

There  has  not  come  to  this  office  any  complaint  from  a  single 
Lodge  in  Kentucky  of  any  trouble  regarding  the  flood.  In  1912,  the 
Odd  Fellows  of  Hickman,  Ky.,  suffered  very  severely  from  the  flood  in 
the  Mississippi  River  and  we  issued  a  call  in  this  Jurisdiction  for  help 
and  received  twice  as  much  as  was  necessary.  On  yesterday  we  issued 
a  call  to  the  Lodges  in  Kentucky  for  help  for  the  brethren  in  Ohio 
and  Indiana  and  the  response  has  already  begun. 

I  again  thank  you  and  if  occasion  arises  we  will  not  hesitate  to 
call  on  you  as  that  is  the  true  spirit  of  Odd  Fellowship.  With  very 
best  wishes  for  the   Order  in   Illinois. 

Yours  truly, 

R.  G.  ELLIOTT, 
Grand    Secretary.

Mr.  John  E.  Jennings,  Sullivan,  111. 

Wire  received,  Brother  Stone  did  not  arrive,  deplorable  condition 
here,  no  suffering  among  fraternity  men,  will  write  as  soon  as  mail  can 
go  out. 

A.  B.  CAPEL, 
Shawneetown,    111. 
Brother  Thurman  of  Cairo  was   cut  off  from  telegraphic   service 
and  Brother  Capel's  reply  did  not  reach  me  until  April  3. 

The  newspaper  reports  continued  to  magnify  the  flood;  also 
Company  "C",  Fourth  Regiment  of  Illinois  National  Guards,  located  at 
my  home,  Sullivan,  Illinois,  was  ordered  to  Cairo,  to  protect  life  and 
property. 

I  also  received  the  following  letter  from  Past  Grand  Master  Davis: 

LAKESIDE  LODGE  NO.   450  I.   O.   O.  F. 

Chicago,  111.,  March  28,  1913. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Sullivan,  111. 

Dear  Brother  Jennings: — I  herewith  enclose  to  you  check  for 
.$25.00  from  my  Lodge,  Lakeside  Lodge  No.  450,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  for  the 
relief  of  the  flood  sufferers.  We  will  leave  it  to  your  discretion  as  to 
what  jurisdictions  you  shall  send  this  money. 

I  belive  that  conditions  are  such  that  our  Order  ought  to  extend 
as  much  relief  as  possible.    I  also  believe  that  this  money  can  be  best

On  April  18,  I  received  the  following  letter  from  Indiana: 

GRAND   LODGE   OF   INDIANA— OFFICE   OF   THE   GRAND 

SECRETARY. 

Indianapolis,  Ind.,  April  18,  1913. 
To  the  Grand  Masters  and  Grand  Secretaries,  I.  O.  O.  F. 

Brothers: — Before  we  had  learned  the  extent  of  the  devastation 
caused  by  the  floods  in  this  state  we  felt  we  would  be  able  to  cope 
with  it  and  provide  our  members  with  such  relief  asi  they  ought  to 
have.  Later  developments  show  the  extent  of  the  disaster  to  be  so 
much  greater  than  we  at  first  anticipated,  and  so  much  beyond  what 
has  been  contributed  for  their  assistance,  that  it  is  deemed  absolutely 
necessary  that  we  should  have  the  co-operation  of  the  Order  through- 
out the  country. 

There  are  sixteen  towns  and  cities  already  reported  to  me  where 
Odd  Fellows'  homes  to  the  number  of  more  than  1,600  have  been 
destroyed,  and  who  have  appealed  for  assistance.  We  have  been 
very  liberal  in  our  contributions,  and  have  divided  these  among  the 
several  places,  but  the  amount  when  divided  is  so  small  that  it  can 
not  nearly  replace  these  unfortunate  Brothers. 

We,  therefore,  deem  it  our  duty  to  advise  you  all  of  this  fact  and 
ask  you  to  make  such  contributions  toward  the  relief  of  these 
members  as  shall  be  within  your  power. 

Yours  fraternally, 

W.   H.   LEEDY, 
Grand  Secretary.

To  which  I  replied  as  follows: 

April  29,  1913. 
Mr.  W.  H.  Leedy,  Grand  Secretary,  Indianapolis,  Ind. 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother: — Your  telegram  of  April  16th  and  letter  of 
April  18th  came  duly  to  hand  during  my  absence,  or  I  would  have 
answered  sooner.  In  reply  will  say  that  we  surely  sympathize  with 
those  who  suffer  in  our  Sister  jurisdictions  and  before  we  knew  the 
extent  of  the  calamity  we  contributed  $1,000.00  to  the  State  of  Ohio. 
Since  then  we  have  learned  of  great  suffering  in  our  own  and  other 
Sister  jurisdictions.  We  must  now  take  care  of  our  own  Brothers, 
and,  not  knowing  the  amount  required  to  relieve  our  own  distress, 
we  do  not  feel  justified  in  contributing  to  other  jurisdictions  as  much 
as  we  would  like  to  do  so.  It  may  be  possible  for  us  to  relieve  you 
to  some  extent  later. 

Yours  fraternally, 

JOHN    E.    JENNINGS. 

Grand  Master. 

On  April  4,  I  received  the  following  telegram  from  C.  A.  Keller,

Md.: 
John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master  I.  O.  O.  F.,  Sullivan,  111. 

Advised  by  Grand  Master  of  Ohio,  twenty  jurisdictions  not  yet 
contributed  to  flood  sufferers.  Don't  know  those  who  have  con- 
tributed, sending  the  message  to  all,  but  applies  only  to  those  who 
have  not  sent  remittances  to  L.  C.  Goodrich,  Grand  Master,  Troy, 
Ohio.    Necessity  for  relief  great.

To  which  I  replied  as  follows: 

April    8,   1913. 
Hon.   C.  A.  Keller,   Grand   Sire,   Baltimore,  Maryland. 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother: — Your  telegram  received,  and  in  reply 
will  say  that  the  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  forwarded  a  draft  for  One 
Thousand  ($1,000.00)  Dollars  to  the  Grand  Secretary  of  Ohio;  C. 
H.  Lyman,  March  31st,  for  the  benefit  of  the  flood  sufferers  in  Ohio; 
since  which  time  Illinois  has  become  greatly  afflicted  and  there 
is  great  suffering  along  the  Ohio  and  Mississippi  river  borders  of  our 
state. 

The  manner  in  which  members  of  our  fraternity  are  relieving  dis- 
tress is  truly  remarkable  as  well  as  most  fraternal  and  commendable. 

Yours  fraternally,

Attempt  to   Relieve. 

My  special  deputy  to  go  to  Shawneetown,  Illinois,  Brother  Henry 
A.  Stone,  P.G-.M.,  and  Brother  A.  E.  Eden,  of  the  Mileage  and  Per  Diem 
Committee,  who  was  sent  to  Cairo  with  Company  C,  4th  Regiment, 
I.  N.  G.,  reported  to  me  that,  on  account  of  the  extreme  high  waters, 
it  was  impossible  to  distribute  local  aid  at  Cairo  and  Brother  Eden 
returned  to  Sullivan  at  his  first  opportunity,  bringing  back  with  him 
in  total  the  draft  of  $1,000.00  that  I  had  sent  with  him.  Brother  Stone 
finally  reached  some  of  the  stricken  district  and  distributed  some 
temporary  aid. 

On  April  30,  the  following  circular  was  sent  to  every  county  in 
the  stricken  district: 

Special    Relief  Committee. 

Sullivan,  111.,  April  30,  1913. 
To  the  Subordinate  Lodges  I.  O.  O.  F.,  State  of  Illinois. 

Brothers: — On  account  of  the  destruction  and  distress  caused  by 
the  recent  floods,  an  appeal  was  made  to  the  Fraternity  in  this  State 
for  aid.    The  response  has  been  more  than  was  expected. 

During  the  extreme  high  waters,  although  the  Grand  Master  had 
representatives  at  the  points  of  greatest  danger,  there  was  little  they 
could  do  to  relieve  distress.  Now,  since  the  waters  have  receded 
somewhat,  there  must  be  organized  relief,  and  for  that  purpose  the 
Grand  Master  requests  that  each  Lodge,  any  of  whose  members  have 
suffered  lossi  by  reason  of  the  floods,  appoint  a  committee  of  three  to 
search  out  who  the  losers  are  and  how  much  they  have  lost  and 
make  a  full  and  complete  inquiry  into  the  conditions  of  such  Brothers 
and  Sisters.  This  committee  should  be  made  up  of  enthusiastic  and 
practical  Odd  Fellows.    It  should  be  appointed  immediately. 

The  Grand  Master  has  appointed  Past  Grand  Master  Henry  A. 
Stone,  of  Vandalia,  111.,  Harry  G.  Cormick,  Past  Grand  Conductor, 
of  Centralia,  111.,  and  I.  C.  Abney,  Assistant  Chief  of  Examiners  and 
Instructors,  of  Creal  Springs,  111.,  as  a  Special  Relief  Committee. 
They  will  have  charge  of  the  disbursement  of  the  relief  funds  to  those 
of  the  Fraternity  who  suffered  loss  from  the  recent  calamity.  This 
committee  has  organized  and  will  act  promptly  and  justly  upon  all 
cases  presented  to  them. 

Without  delay  the  Subordinate  Lodge  Committees  and  every 
member  of  the  Order  who  knows  of  want  and  distress  should  report 
the  names  and  addresses,  with  as  much  detail  as  possible,  to  one  of 
the  members  of  the  Special  Relief  Committee. 

Every  Brother  in  the  Order  who  is  acquainted  with  this  Special 
Relief   Committee  has    full   confidence   in   their   ability,   in   their   Odd

of  the  Fraternity  assist  them  in  every  way  possible.

In  addition  to  which  Brother  Stone  formulated  and  mailed  to  the 
stricken  districts  two  documents  that  will  appear  in  his  detailed  report. 

It  is  with  pleasure  that  I  submit  herewith  the  reports,  one,  two  and 
three,  of  this  committee:

Vandalia,  111.,  June  28,  1913. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  G.  M.,  Sullivan,  111. 

Dear  Grand  Master: — I  finished  my  report  for  the  Flood  Sufferers 
Committee  on  the  25th  in  five  copies,  and  sent  them  to  Brother  Cormick 
for  his  inspection  and  approval,  and  he  sent  it  on  to  Brother  Abney. 
who  has  indorsed  them  and  they  just  came  back  on  this  P.  M.  mail, 

I  now  have  the  pleasure  in  saying  our  work  is  done,  and  you  will 
find  the  original  report  herewith,  which  of  course  will  be  considered 
a  continued  report  in  connection  with  my  personal  visitation  at  time 
of  floods,  and  for  which  you  have  full  reports. 

I  also  send  the  itemized  expense  and  per  diem  accounts  of  Brother 
Cormick,  Brother  Abney  and  myself,  the  latter  being  in  two  reports. 

You  will  note  besides  the  per  diem  charged  in  my  three  expense 
reports,  which  cover  the  actual  time  consumed  on  these  visitations,  I 
have  taken  the  liberty  to  put  in  twelve  days  for  services  at  home. 
This,  however,  would  not  cover  more  than  one-third  the  actual  time  I 
put  in  on  the  work.  If  this  should  not  meet  with  your  approval,  advise 
me  and  I  will  put  that  amount  back  into  the  Flood  Fund.  I  will  en- 
close a  letter  which  came  today  from  Brother  Cormick,  stating  what 
he  thinks  of  the  report,  etc.  Brother  Abney  made  no  comments,  but 
he  signed  the  general  report.  I  will  thank  you  to  kindly  return  Bro 
Cormick's  letter.  I  have  sent  copy  to  the  Grand  Secretary.  Trust  the 
report  will  meet  your  approval. 

Sincerely  and  fraternally,

have  them  back  by  now.

Dear  Sir  and  Bro. — On  my  return  home  from  Jacksonville.  I  found 
vour  report  of  the  Special  Relief  Committee,  also  warrant  from  Brother 
Sikes  for  $93.93  to  cover  the  amount  you  had  overdrawn  the  Flood 
Sufterers'  account  in  the  Farmers  &  Merchants  Bank  at  Creal  Springs. 

Find  herein  warrant  for  this  amount.  You  had  better  send  me  a 
receipt  for  this  amount,  which  I  will  attach  to  your  report. 

You  have  certainly  made  a  splendid  report  and  saves  me  the 
trouble  of  going  over  all  this  subject  matter,  for  which  I  thank  you 
and  the  other  members  of  the  committee. 

I  believe  that  it  would  be  wisdom  on  our  part  to  make  it  known 
to  the  Fraternity  why  we  relieved  the  Brothers  in  Logansport,  Ind.. 


NovTU18dai913  \       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  5 1 

and  West  Terre  Haute,  Ind.  Understand,  I  am  not  objecting  to  the 
fact  that  you  did  it,  but  there  was  some  special  reason  why  you  did  it. 
We  can  attach  your  reasons  to  your  report  and  not  interfere  with  the 
logic  of  it  in  any  way. 

Your  letter  to  me  in  connection  with  the  report  is  a  splendid  letter 
and  I  enjoyed  it.  Your  statement,  cash  expended,  is  perfectly  satis- 
factory \o  me;  there  may  be  a  few  Brothers  in  the  Order  who  will  not 
approve  it  as  quickly  as  I  do,  but  we  will  take  good  care  of  it  when  it 
comes  to  the  Grand  Lodge  Session. 

I  am  glad  you  paid  the  Chicago  Brother  for  his  cyclone  loss.  I  am 
surprised  there  is  no  loss  at  Cairo. 

Personally,   I  want  to  extend  my  sincere  thanks  to  you  for  per- 
forming   this    Flood    Sufferers'    duty.      It    is    a    matter    which  I    was 
physically  unable  to  take  care  of. 
Again  thanking  you,  I  remain 

Yours  fraternally, 

JOHN  E.  JENNINGS, 

Grand  Master. 
Springfield,  111.  June  27.  1913. 
Mr.  Jno.  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master,  Sullivan.  Illinois. 

Dear  Brother  Jennings — Inclosed  please  find  a  warrant  on  the 
special  relief  fund  for  $93.93  in  favor  of  the  Grand  Lodge  Special 
Relief  Committee,  which  should  be  remitted  to  Bro.  Henry  A.  Stone, 
P.G.M.,  Chairman  of  the  Special  Relief  Committee. 

Bro.  Stone  informs  me  that  there  is  an  overdraft  for  this  amount 
being  carried  by  the  Farmers  and  Merchants  Bank  of  Creal  Springs. 

I  believe  that  the  Committee  has  done  good  work  and  that  the 
distribution  of  the  relief  has  been  done  as  satisfactorily  as  can  be 
expected. 

Fraternally  yours, 

JNO.  H.  SIKES, 
Grand  Secretary.

Hon.  John  E.  Jennings.  Grand  Master,  Illinois  I.  O.  O.  F.,  Sullivan.  111. 
Dear  Grand  Master — We,  your  special  committee,  appointed  to 
investigate  the  suffering  and  property  losses,  sustained  by  members 
of  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows  within  the  jurisdiction  of 
Illinois,  during  the  recent  floods,  and  to  extend  relief  to  those  in  need. 


52  JOURNAL  OF    PROCEEDINGS  J  x,,v' "is^'iM!- 

covering  a  period  of  over  two  and  one-half  months,  beg  to  report  that 
our  work  has  been  completed. 

We  submit  in  detail  the  results. 

March  30th,  1913,  the  Chairman  of  your  committee,  through  your 
instructions  by  telephone,  proceeded  to  the  flood  stricken  cities  of 
Shawneetown,  Equality,  and  Junction,  to  extend  immediate  relief  to 
the  members  of  the  Order  who  might  be  in  need  of  same. 

The  waters  at  this  time  were  at  the  highest  point  ever  recorded. 

Relief  was  extended  to  eleven  Brothers,  to  the  amount  of  $260.00, 
full  report  of  which  was  rendered  you  under  date  April  15th. 

April  17th,  you  appointed  your  committee  of  three  to  continua 
work  of  relief  after  the  waters  had  subsided. 

This  committee  immediately  organized  by  electing  Henry  A.  Stone. 
P.G.M.,  as  Chairman;  H.  G.  Cormick,  P.G.  Conductor,  Secretary;  and 
I.  C.  Abney,  P.G.,  Treasurer. 

Following  this,  you  issued  your  proclamation  to  the  Lodges  in 
this  jurisdiction,  as  follows,  to-wit: 

'•Sullivan,  111.,  April  30.  191 3. 
To  the  Subordinate  Lodges  I.  O.  O.  F..  State  of  Illinois: 

Brothers — On  account  of  the  destruction  and  distress  caused  by 
the  recent  floods,  au  appeal  was  made  to  the  Fraternity  in  this  State 
for  aid. 

During  the  extreme  high  waters,  although  the  Grand  Master  had 
representatives  at  the  points  of  greatest  danger,  there  was  little  they 
could  do  to  relieve  distress.  Now,  since  the  waters  have  receded 
somewhat,  there  must  be  organized  relief,  and  for  that  purpose  the 
Grand  Master  requests  that  each  Lodge,  any  of  whose  members  have 
suffered  less  by  reason  of  the  floods,  appoint  a  committee  of  three  to 
search  out  who  the  losers  are  and  how  much  they  have  lost  and  make 
a  full  and  complete  inquiry  into  the  conditions  of  such  Brothers  and 
Sisters.  This  committee  should  be  made  up  of  enthusiastic  and  practi- 
cal Odd  Fellows.     It  should  be  appointed  immediately. 

The  Grand  Master  has  appointed  Past  Grand  Master,  Henry  A. 
Stone,  of  Vandalia,  111.,  Harry  G.  Cormick,  Past  Grand  Conductor,  of 
Centralia.  111.,  and  I.  C.  Abney.  Assistant  Chief  of  Examiners  and 
Instructors,  of  Creal  Springs.  111.,  as  a  Special  Relief  Committee. 
They  will  have  charge  of  the  disbursement  of  the  relief  funds  to  those 
of  the  Fraternity  who  suffered  loss  from  the  recent  calamity.  This 
committee  has .  organized  and  will  act  promptly  and  justly  upon  all 
cases  presented  to  them. 

Without-  delay  the  Subordinate  Lodge  Committees  and  every  mem- 
ber of  the  Order  who   Know  of  want   and   distress  should   report  the 


Nov     18     1913  1       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  53 

names  and  addresses,  with  as  much  detail  as  possible,  to  one  of  the 
members  of  the  Special  Relief  Committee. 

Every  Brother  in  the  Order  who  is  acquainted  with  this  Special 
Relief  Committee  has  full  confidence  in  their  ability,  in  their  Odd 
Fellowship  and  in  their  desire  to  relieve  distress.  Let  every  member 
in  the  Fraternity  assist  them  in  every  way  possible. 

Done  at   Sullivan,   Illinois,  April  26,  1913. 

Attest:  JOHN   E.    JENNINGS, 

JNO.  H.   SIKES,  Grand  Master. 

Grand  Secretary." 

As  responses  were  received  from  the  Lodges,  the  following  letter 
(Marked  Exhibit  "A"),  together  with  a  supply  of  blank  application? 
(Marked  Exhibit  "B"),  was  sent  to  them. 

Exhibit  "A." 

To  Subordinate  Lodges,  I.  O.  0.  F..  State  of  Illinois: 

Dear  Brothers — You  have  received  a  communication  from  John  E. 
Jennings,  Grand  Master,  stating  he  had  issued  to  the  Lodges'  of  Illinois, 
I.  O.  O.  F.,  an  appeal  for  aid,  on  account  of  the  recent  floods,  and  his 
request  that  each  Lodge,  any  of  whose  members  have  suffered  loss  by 
reason  of  the  floods,  appoint  a  special  committee  of  three  to  search 
out  who  the  losers  are  and  how  much  they  have  lost,  and  make  full 
and  complete  inquiry  into  the  conditions  of  such  Brothers  and  report 
at  once  to  the  Special  Relief  Committee  appointed  by  him. 

In  furtherance  of  such  instructions  from  the  Grand  Master,  we 
are  sending  you  herewith  application  blanks,  to  be  filled  out  by  each 
Brother  making  application  for  aid,  by  your  local  committee,  together 
with  such  other  information  your  committee  may  desire  to  give,  and 
forward  by  mail  as  soon  as  possible  to  HENRY  A.  STONE,  Chairman 
Committee,  Vandalia,  Illinois. 

When  responses  are  received  from  the  Lodges  addressed,  and  an 
estimate  of  the  total  losses  claimed,  this  relief  committee  will  visit 
each  place,  and,  after  investigating  each  case  with  the  local  committee 
and  the  applicants  as  far  as  possible,  will  make  distribution  according 
to  the  merits  of  each  case  and  in  proportion  to  the  amount  availnble 
and  at  our  disposal  in  this  Special  Flood  Sufferers'  Fund. 

Your  local  committee  in  securing  this  information  should  give 
each  applicant  to  understand  that  they  cannot  expect  the  Grand  Lodge 
to  fully  compensate  them  in  their  losses.  We  can  assist  them  only 
according  to  the  amount  of  money  placed  in  the  fund  by  the  donations 
received  from  the  Lodges  for  this  specific  purpose,  and  to  be  issued  to 
Brothers  who  are  in  actual  need  of  assistance  and  to  no  one  who  may 
be  financially  able  to  sustain  the  loss  himself.

Total  amount  received  through  the  Grand  Master's 

call    $     5.119.75

In  adjusting  the  estimated  losses,  as  reported  in  the  applications. 

the  Committee  carefully  considered  the  circumstances  of  each  and  if

Some  applications  as  a  whole  were  not  allowed,  for  we  could  not 
consider  them  objects  of  charity  an  dthey  were  not  suffering  for  neces- 
sities of  life. 

Where  applicants  had  received  cash  donations  from  other  sources, 
the  amount  was  deducted  from  the  amount  allowed. 

We  made  no  allowance  for  the  destruction  of  growing  crops,  as 
this  could  not  be  considered  any  more  than  loss  by  drouth  or  other 
natural  causes. 

We  have  endeavored  to  be  just  and  fair  with  every  brother,  and 
regret  that  the  percentage  might  not  have  been  100  cents  on  every 
dollar  of  loss. 

Trusting  our  efforts  may  meet  the  approval  of  every  applicant,  and 
the  Grand  Master,  we  beg  to  remain, 

Sincerely  and  fraternally,

to  you  for  the  confidence  reposed  in  us  by  placing  this  relief  work 
within  our  discretion,  and  for  the  help  and  advice  received  from  you. 
The  task  has  not  been  an  easy  one,  but  it  was  a  labor  of  Love.  We 
have  done  in  every  case  what  we  considered  was  right  and  just  to  the 
Brotherhood  interested,  and  for  the  "Good  of  the  Order."  We  trust 
that  it  may  meet  with  your  sanction  and  approval.

HENRY  A.  STONE, 
Chairman  Relief  Committee. 
Through  an  error  the  above  matter  was  not  printed  in  the  Grand 
Master's  report  of  the  Relief  Committee. 

GRAND  LODGE  SPECIAL  RELIEF  FUND. 

The  Grand  Lodge  Special  Relief  Fund  is  in  the  following  condition: 

Cash  on  hand  Nov.  1,  1912 $     2,206.87 

Cash  on  hand  Nov.  1,  1913 2,154.09 

In  concluding  my  report  upon  this  matter,-  I  feel  a  pride  in  the 
prompt  contribution  of  the  Brotherhood  and  the  business  manner  in 
which  this  fund  has  been  distributed.  This  Committee  gave  of  their 
time  and  energy  in  order  that  the  money  contributed  might  reach  the 
persons  distressed  and  I  desire  that  this  Grand  Lodge  scrutinize  this 
report.  I  am  sure  that  it  is  the  hope  of  the  Fraternity  that  Southern 
Illinois  will  never  again  be  visited  by  such  a  calamity. 

While  our  .Order  is  not  an  Insurance  concern,  it  does  stand  for 
the  relief  of  distress.  I  believe  that  the  foregoing  report  of  this  Com- 
mittee will  convince  the  Brotherhood  (if  such  was  needed)  that  our 
Fraternity  does  relieve  distress. 

ENDOWMENT  FUND. 

Our  Order  has  a  snug  endowment  fund  for  each  of  our  Homes. 
Now  is  no  time  to  argue  whether  or  not  an  endowment  fund  is  a  wise 
proposition.  It  is  not  large  enough  at  present  to  be  of  any  great  use 
to  us,  as  we  can  only  use  the  interest.  I  deem  it  proper  to  call  your 
attention  to  this  matter  and  ask  your  Lodge  if  they  feel  so  inclined  to 
contribute  some  amount  to  this  fund.  I  would  want  the  contribution 
to  be  absolutely  voluntary. 

I  submit  herewith  report  of  the  Committee  that  has  charge  of  this 
fund: 

First  Report  of  Endowment  Trustees. 
To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  O.  F.: 

Your  Trustees  of  the  Endowment  Funds  of  the  Orphans'  Home 
and  of  the  Old  Folks'  Home  were  instructed  at  the  session  of  1911, 
in  addition  to  the  usual  report  of  investments,  to  give  a  tabulated 
statement  each  year  which  will  show  the  following:  1.  Total  amount 
contributed  to  the  Endowment  Funds  by  individuals  and  organizations 
in  amounts  less  than  $500.00.  2.  Itemized  statement  of  contributions 
received  as  donations  or  bequests  in  amounts  of  $500.00  or  more.     3.

Interest  collected  on  each  fund  and  disposition  of  each.  4.  Total 
amount  invested  in  securities  in  each  fund.  5.  Cash  balance  on  hand 
in  each  fund.  G.  Total  amount  in  Endowment  Funds  of  the  two 
Homes,  including  securities  and  cash  on  hand. 

In  accordance  with  these  instructions  we  respectfully  submit  the 
following  report: 

From  moneys  received  from  the  paying  off  of  securities  on  hand, 
cash  contributed  at  the  session  of  1912  and  cash  on  hand  as  shown 
by  the  Grand  Treasurer's  report  of  1912  (detailed  reports  of  said 
amounts  to  appear  in  the  annual  reports  of  the  Grand  Treasurer  and 
of  the  Grand  Secretary),  we  have  made  the  following  investments: 

Orphan's'  Home  Fund — $7,000.00  first  mortgage  note  secured  by 
314  acres  rich  tillable  farm  land  in  Vermilion  county,  due  Jaunary 
1st,  1918,  netting  5  per  cent;  valuation  on  farm,  exclusive  of  building?, 
$39,250.00.  Maker  of  note,  Hugh  C.  Clements.  We  owe  a  balance  of 
$750.00  on  this  note. 

Old  Folks'  Home  Fund— $2,000.00  first  mortgage  note  secured  by  80 
acres  of  good  tillable  farm  land  in  Lee  county,  due  January  1st,  1918, 
netting  five  and  one-fourth  per  cent;  valuation  on  farm,  exclusive  of 
buildings,  $7,600.00.  Maker,  Albert  H.  Hill.  $500.00  Henderson  County. 
Illinois,  Drainage  District  No.  2  Bond,  netting  five  and  one-fourth  per 
cent,  dated  June  15th,  1913.  and  due  June  15th.  1925. 

In  our  opinion  these  investments  are  absolutely  safe  and  all  of 
them  net  five  per  cent  and  five  and  one-fourth  per  cent.  It  is  our 
desire  that  hereafter  all  securities  shall  net  at  least  five  per  cent. 
While  Illinois  farm  loans  are  preferable,  the  option  to  pay  off  these 
loans  before  they  become  due  is  somewhat  objectionable.  We  are 
favorably  impressed  with  Illinois  Drainage  Bonds  for  the  reason  that 
they  have  a  long  time  to  run  and  the  net  amount  of  interest  is  always 
attractive. 

The  individual  accounts  of  contributions  to  the  Endowment  Funds 
are  kept  by  the  Grand  Secretary.  The  Trustees  unanimously  decided 
in  our  report  this  year  we  should  give  a  detailed  report  of  amounts 
of  $100.00  or  more  instead  of  $500.00  or  more.  This  will  enable  a  large 
number  of  individuals  and  organizations  to  know  the  status  of  their 
accounts.  The  Grand  Secretary  has  been  very  careful  in  keeping  these 
accounts  but  the  manner  in  which  contributions  are  often  made  causes 
some  confusion  and  makes  the  task  somewhat  difficult.  This  year  we 
shall  give  the  total  amount  contributed  in  amounts  of  less  than  $100.00. 

1.  Total   amount   contributed   to   the   Endowment   funds  of 

the    two    Homes   by    individuals    and    organizations,    in 

amounts  less  than  $100.00 $  30,133.54 

2.  Detailed  report  of  organizations  and  individuals  having  contributed 

amounts  of  $100.00  or  more  to  the  Endowment  Funds:

special  interest  to  the  large  number  of  Brothers  and  Sisters  who  realize 
the  wisdom  of  building  up  a  substantial  Endowment  Fund  for  each 
Home.  These  funds  are  contributing  every  year  about  $3,000.00  toward 
the  maintenance  of  the  two  Homes  and  as  time  goes  on  this  will  be 
much  larger.    We  trust  that  hereafter  a  very  large  number  of  Brothers

and   Sisters   and   Lodges   and   other   organizations   will   remember   the 
Endowment  Funds  by  donations  and  bequests. 

Notice  received  of  will  executed: — Brother  John  Collman,  72 
years  of  age,  a  member  of  Walhalla  Lodge  No.  574,  of  Blue  Island,  has 
notified  the  Trustees  that  he  has  executed  a  will  in  which  he  be- 
queathes to  the  Endowment  Funds  of  the  Orphans'  Home  and  the  Old 
Folks'  Home  property  valued  at  approximately  $8,000.00.  He  leaves 
certain  other  property  to  his  Lodge  to  be  used  by  it  for  a  period  of  25 
years,  at  the  end  of  which  time  it  is  to  be  sold  and  the  proceeds  to  be 
placed  in  the  Endowment  Funds.  This  worthy  Brother,  who  has  spent 
a  lifetime  in  Odd  Fellowship,  is  entitled  to  great  credit  for  his  generous 
remembrance  of  the  helpless  orphan  and  the  helpless  aged  Brother 
and  Sister.  He  is  entitled  to  the  thanks  of  this  Grand  Lodge  and  we 
recommend  that  the  Grand  Secretary  be  instructed  to  write  Brother 
Collman  expressing  the  thanks  of  this  Grand  Lodge  for  his  generous 
remembrance  of  our  two  Homes  in  his  will.

REPORTS  OF  OFFICERS. 

I  submit  herewith  the  report  of  Warren  C.  Darnall,  Deputy  Grand 
Master,  and  W.  H.  Pease,  Grand  Warden: 

OFFICE    OF   WARREN    C.    DARNALL— DEPUTY    GRAND    MASTER. 

McLean,  111.,  October  15,  1913. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Sullivan,  Illinois. 

Dear  Grand  Master: — At  your  request  I  herewith  submit  a  record 
of  such  visitations  I  have  made  during  the  past  year  as  may  properly 
be  classed  as  official. 

Paramount  in  importance  were  the  State  Schools  of  Instruction, 
all  of  which  I  attended. 

Unlike  former  Schools,  it  was  determined,  at  the  Council  of 
Grand  Officers  held  in  Bloomington  early  in  January,  to  devote  three 
days  to  each  School  and  limit  the  number  held. 

Full  details  concerning  these  Schools  will  no  doubt  be  fully 
explained  in  the  report  of  Brother  H.  M.  Blood,  Chief  of  Examiners  and 
Instructors,  and,  in  order  to  avoid  burdening  the  record  with  useless 
material  and  repetitions,  I  will  be  as  brief  as  circumstances  seem  to 
warrant. 

The  first  School  was  held  in  Springfield,  beginning  January  27th, 
and  was  successful  from  every  viewpoint.  The  attendance  was  good 
and    the   interest    sustained    throughout   the    entire    three    days.      Past

Grand  Master  E.  R.  Sayler  and  many  other  Brothers  prominent  in 
the  Order  were  in  attendance. 

The  second  School,  at  Vandalia,  was  somewhat  marred  by  the 
indisposition  of  the  Grand  Master,  which  prevented  his  attendance, 
yet  the  results  attained  were  in  every  way  satisfactory.  I  desire 
to  especially  mention  the  enthusiastic  assistance  during  this  School  of 
Past  Grand  Master  and  Past  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors. 
Brother  Henry  A.  Stone. 

The  third  School,  at  Bloomington,  was  attended  by  all  the  Grand 
Officers  detailed  for  this  work  except  Brother  Abney.  The  interest  was 
good  and  the  results  very  satisfactory.  At  the  sessions  during  which 
degree  work  was  exemplified  the  capacity  of  the  hall  was  taxed  and  the 
visiting  staffs  conferring  the  work  received  an  ovation.  A  pleasant 
feature  of  this  meeting  was  the  unexpected  attendance  of  Grand 
Representative  James  Ewing  Davis. 

The  burden  of  the  fourth  School  at  Quincy  fell  upon  the  Deputy 
Grand  Master  and  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors  until  the  last 
day  when  the  Grand  Secretary  arrived  and  later  on  the  Grand  Master, 
who  had  been  unavoidably  detained,  appeared  in  time  to  officiate  at 
the  special  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  close  the  School.  The 
attendance,  however,  was  uniformly  good  and  much  interest  and 
enthusiasm  was  manifested  by  the  Brethren  of  the  western  part  of  the 
state  who  came  for  many  miles  to  be  present  at  this  meeting. 

Olney  was  not  originally  designated  as  a  place  for  holding  a  state 
School  in  this  series,  but  so  much  pressure  was  brought  to  bear  upon 
the  Grand  Master  by  the  Brethren  of  the  eastern  part  of  the  state, 
that  the  fifth  School  was  advertised  and  held  in  the  home  town  of  the 
veteran  Grand  Scribe;  Brother  Sam  Baker.  A  splendid  meeting 
resulted  and  much  good  was  accomplished.  Aside  from  the  usual 
quota  of  Grand  Officers  in  attendance  we  noted  with  pleasure  the 
presence  of  the  Grand  Chaplain,  Brother  0.  L.  Markman. 

The  sixth  School  was  held  at  Peoria  and  although  the  attendance 
was  not  large  the  interest  was  good.  The  Grand  Master  was  unable 
to  be  present,  so  that  the  valuable  assistance  of  Grand  Marshal,  Brother 
J.  J.  Crowder,  was  all  the  more  timely. 

The  final  School,  in  East  St.  Louis,  beginning  April  21st,  was  in 
many  respects  the  most  brilliant  of  the  series.  The  East  St.  Louis 
Brethren  are  certainly  alive  to  their  opportunity  and  are  doing  their 
part  in  furthering  the  work  of  Odd  Fellowship  in  that  rapidly  growing 
city. 

On  Friday,  February  7th,  following  the  Vandalia  School,  you  were 
unable  to  fill  your  date  with  the  Brethren  at  Kinney  and  at  your 
request  I  officiated  at  the  dedication  of  their  new  hall.

The  week  beginning  Monday,  May  5th,  the  Grand  Officers  spent 
with  the  Brethren  of  Cook  County  as  the  invited  guests  of  the  Depu- 
ties' Association.  The  usual  number  of  visitations  were  made  and  the 
splendid  entertainment  furnished  by  the  Association  and  resident 
Brethren  served  to  strengthen  if  possible  the  bonds  of  Brotherly  Love. 

Monday  evening,  May  12th,  by  special  invitation  and  at  their 
expense,  I  addressed  the  Brethren  at  Paxton  in  an  open  meeting,  an 
audience  of  splendid   people. 

Tuesday,  May  14th,  in  company  with  Grand  Representative,  James 
Ewing  Davis,  and  others,  I  officiated  at  the  laying  of  the  corner  stone 
for  the  new  building  erected  by  the  Lodge  at  Lee  Center.  Although 
the  day  was  stormy  there  was  a  good  attendance  and  a  very  satis- 
factory meeting. 

Sunday,  June  1st,  I  delivered  the  memorial  address  for  the 
Brethren  at  LaHarpe,  and  also  found  time  for  a  short  closed  meeting, 
for  Odd  Fellows  only,  at  their  urgent  request. 

Monday,  June  9th,  I  was  called  to  Herrin  for  two  meetings,  fore- 
noon and  afternoon.  In  the  forenoon  a  closed  meeting  for  instruc- 
tion in  Odd  Fellowship  and  in  the  afternoon  a  meeting  open  to  the 
public.     Good  attendance  and  splendid  interest  shown. 

Thursday,  June  19th,  assisted  at  the  annual  County  picnic  at 
Bloomington  and  that  night  departed  with  Brother  H.  M.  Blood  for 
St.  Louis  to  fill  the  special  engagement  previously  made  between  the 
Grand  Officers  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Missouri  and  the  Grand  Officers 
of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois.  This  engagement  covered  a  period  of 
two  days  and  nights,  the  days  being  given  over  to  special  instruction 
and  consultation  and  the  night  sessions  to  regulation  Illinois  ritualistic 
School  work.  Brother  Blood  and  I  were  treated  to  a  practical  demon- 
stration of  the  famous  Missouri  hospitality  that  did  our  hearts  good 
and  judging  from  the  atmosphere  that  pervaded  all  through  this 
meeting  we  feel  that  it  was  mutually  helpful  and  will  mark  an  epoch 
in  the  fraternal  activities  of  these  neighboring  jurisdictions. 

Saturday,  July  19th,  by  special  invitation  and  at  the  expense  of  the 
Brethren  of  Dorchester,  I  addressed  them  on  the  occasion  of  their 
annual  picnic. 

Friday,  June  27th,  I  attended  and  assisted  in  the  special  School  of 
Instruction  at  Jacksonville  on  the  occasion  of  the  dedication  of  their 
splendid  new  building. 

On  Saturday,  August  2d,  at  your  request,  I  represented  you  at  tbe 
annual  Field  Day  exercises  of  the  Cook  County  Lodges,  which  were 
held   at  White   Sox   Park,   Chicago. 

Monday,  September  1st,  I  attended  the  annual  meeting  of  the 
Association  of  Fraternal  Homes.  This  association  is  certainly  on 
the  right  track  and  its  activities  should  result  in  much  good  to  all

interested.     The   meeting  this   year   was   held  at  the  Orphans'   Home 
at  Lincoln. 

Wednesday,  September  3d.  in  company  with  yourself  and  other 
Grand  Officers,  I  attended  and  participated  in  the  dedication  of  the 
splendid  new  building  of  Columbia  Lodge  No.  21  at  Peoria. 

September  10th  and  11th,  in  company  with  yourself  and  Brother 
Blood,  I  assisted  at  the  School  of  Instruction  at  Champaign.  A  profit- 
able meeting. 

Tuesday,  September  23d,  in  company  with  Grand  Warden,  Brother 
Pease,  and  Past  Grand  Master,  Brother  William  M.  Groves,  and  the 
Grand  Officers  of  the  Rebekah  Branch,  I  addressed  the  Brethren  at 
Beardstown  on  the  occasion  of  the  annual  picnic  of  the  Central  Illinois 
I.  0.  0.  F.  Association.  A  splendid  meeting,  and  very  much  enjoyed 
by  all. 

Monday,  October  6th,  by  special  invitation  I  visited  the  Brethren 
of  Englewood  Hill  Lodge  and  addressed  an  open  meeting.  The  occasion 
was  their  first  meeting  in  their  new  hall  at  69th  and  Halsted.  A  very 
enjoyable  occasion. 

Wednesday,  October  &th,  you  called  the  Grand  Officers  in  council 
at  the  office  of  the  Grand  Secretary  in  connection  with  final  arrange- 
ments for  the  approaching  Grand  Lodge  session.  After  the  meeting 
adjourned  we  enjoyed  the  hospitality  of  our  genial  Grand  Secretary, 
Brother  John  H.  Sikes. 

One  engagement  remains  to  be  filled.  A  School  of  Instruction  for 
the  Brethren  of  Monmouth  and  vicinity  is  booked  for  Tuesday  and 
Wednesday,  October  21st  and  22d.  With  this  School  will  the  outlined 
work  of  the  term  be  completed.

DEDICATION    OF   BUILDINGS   BY    BROTHER    DAVIS. 

Chicago,  October  24,  1913. 
Hon.   John  E.   Jennings,  Grand  Master,   Sullivan,   111. 

Dear  Brother  Jennings — Acting  under  your  instructions,  on  the 
11th  day  of  June,  1913,  I  dedicated  the  Odd  Fellows'  Temple  at  Aurora 
I  was  assisted  by  the  following  Brothers:  W.  H.  Pease,  Grand  Warden; 
Howard  Robertson,  Grand  Chaplain;  Chas.  E.  Boyer,  Grand  Marshal: 
W.  G.  Hobbs,  Grand  Herald.  The  four  Grand  Heralds  of  the  North, 
South,  East  and  West  were  A.  B.  Shadwick,  Fred  Strohm,  Nelson  Foley 
and  Sven  Windrow.  The  dedication  was  under  the  able  supervision 
of  Brother  H.  M.  Blood,  Chief  of  Instructors. 

This  is  a  magnificent  Temple  and  cost  $50,000.  The  large  hall 
was  filled  to  its  complete  capacity  with  interested  spectators.  The 
Temple  is  a  three  story  building,  of  which  the  two  Odd  Fellow 
Lodges  will  occupy  the  top  floor.  They  already  have  a  tenant  for  fifteen 
years  at  $3,000  a  year  for  the  second  floor.  The  Order  in  Aurora  is 
enjoying  a  wonderful  degree  of  prosperity. 

FREEPORT. 

On  Sunday,  October  12th,  I  dedicated  the  Odd  Fellows'  Temple  at 
Freeport.     I  was  assisted  by  the  following  Brothers: 

Grand  Marshal     Rev.  E.  T.  Cornelius 

Grand  Warden  ; Bert  Giesey 

Grand  Chaplain  Rev.  C.  E.  Sayer 

Grand    Herald    Al.    Dittman 

Outside  Guardian    E.   E.   Horr 

Herald  of  the  North    W.   H.   Manchester 

Herald  of  the   South    W.   Rubendall 

Herald    of    the    East    Emil    Seard 

Herald  of  the  West  George  Foss 

This  is  the  largest  temple  of  the  Odd  Fellows  in  our  state.  It 
is  four  stories  high;  on  the  main  floor  there  is  an  auditorium  and 
balcony,  which  seats  1,600  people;  the  two  lodges  of  Freeport,  and  the 
other  branches  of  the  Order,  will  occupy  the  Lodge  room,   which  is

about  50  by  80  and  22  feet  from  the  floor  to  the  ceiling.  The  top  floor 
has  been  rented  for  a  term  of  years,  and  the  auditorium  has  been 
rented  for  a  term  of  years  for  one  night  a  week.  I  understand  that 
they  secure  $1,200  a  year  for  the  auditorium  for  the  one  night  a  week. 

Preceding  the  dedication  there  was  a  magnificent  parade.  It  was 
impossible  for  more  than  one-half  of  the  people  to  witness  the  dedi- 
catory exercises.  The  exercises  closed  Wednesday  night,  when  the 
four  degrees  were  conferred  upon  a  class  of  80  candidates. 

This  temple,  together  with  its  furnishings,  cost  approximately 
$50,000.  The  dedication  of  this  temple  has  been  the  means  of  arousing  a 
splendid  monuments  to  Odd  Fellowship  in  our  state. 

I  hereby  express  to  you  my  sincerest  thanks  for  the  honor  bestowed 
upon  me  in  assisting  in  the  work  of  the  dedication  of  these  two 
splendid  monuments  to  Odd  Fellowship  in  our  State. 

Sincerely  and  fraternally  submitted, 

JAMES  EWING  DAVIS.

PETITION   FOR    REIMBURSEMENT 

By  Lily  of  the  West  Lodge  No.  407,  for  costs  and  expenses  incurred 
in  connection  with  ligitation  ordered  by  former  Grand  Masters:

TO  THE  GRAND  LODGE  OF  THE  INDEPENDENT  ORDER  OF  ODD 

FELLOWS,  OF  THE   STATE  OF  ILLINOIS. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master: 

Your  petitioner,  Lily  of  the  West  Lodge,  No.  407,  I.  O.  O.F.,  respect- 
fully represents  that  it  is  a  Subordinate  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois, 
having  been  instituted  by  and  under  the  authority  of  the  Grand  Lodge 
of  the  State  of  Illinois.  Your  petitioner  represents  that  it  is  subject 
to  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the  Grand  Lodge. 

Your  petitioner  further  represents  that  Edward  Roos,  a  member 
of  this  Lodge,  had  an  attack  of  paresis  on  the  4th  day  of  September, 
1904,  at  Fond  du  lac,  Wisconsin,  and  that  on  September  5,  1904,  the  day 
following,  the  said  Edward  Roos  was  removed  to  the  Milwaukee  Sani- 
tarium at  Wauwatosa,  Wisconsin,  at  which  institution  he  remained 
from  that  time  until  the  date  of  his  death,  October  21,  1907.  The 
remains  were  brought  to  Chicago,  and  he  was  buried  on  the  23d  day 
of  October,  1907.  The  two  hundred  dollars  ($200.00)  funeral  expenses 
provided  for  by  the  By-Laws  of  said  Lodge  were  paid  by  your  peti- 
tioner. On  the  16th  day  of  November,  1904,  the  said  Edward  Roos  was 
adjudged  insane  by  the  Probate  Court  of  Cook  County.  Illinois.  The 
hearing  was  exparte  and  no  notice  of  this  hearing  was  given  to  the 
lodge. 

The  wife  and  family  of  Edward  Roos  did  not  notify  the  Lodge  of 
his  sickness.  No  physician's  certificate  of  his  sickness  was  ever 
furnished  the  lodge.  The  lodge  inquired  of  the  family  of  Edward 
Roos  as  to  where  the  said  Edward  Roos  was.  The  family  replied  that 
they  would  not  permit  any  member  of  the  lodge  to  visit  him. 

No  claim  for  sick  benefits-  was  ever  m|ade  by  the  family  of  Edward 
Roos  during  the  lifetime  of  the  said  Edward  Roos,  and  not  until  several 
months  after  the  death  of  the  said  Edward  Roos. 

When  the  claim  for  sick  benefits  was  made,  the  lodge  submitted 
the  claim  to  the  Hon.  Owen  Scott,  then  Grand  Master.  Brother  Scott 
directed  the  lodge  not  to  pay  the  claim  for  sick  benefits.  Just  at  the 
close  of  Brother  Scott's  term  the  family  of  Brother  Roos  asked  that 
the  matter  be  investigated  more  fully,  and  Brother  Scott  recommended 
that  the  case  be  referred  to  the  incoming  Grand  Master  for  further 
examination  and  action.  Your  petitioner  refers  to  the  Journal  of  1908, 
on  page  370  in  the  Grand  Master's  supplemental  report,  which  is  as 
follows: 

"A  CLAIM  FOR  BENEFITS. 
"Mr.  Otto  Roos,  son  of  Edward  Roos,  deceased,  late  a  member  of 
Lily  of  the  West  Lodge.  No.  407,  presented  a  claim  for  sick  benefits  to 
said  lodge  on  account  of  his  father.     I  gave  said  claim  such  investi- 
gation as  I  had  opportunity  to  make,  and  sustained  the  action  of  the 


NovTUl|dai913  }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  JT, 

Lodge  in  refusing  to  pay  benefits   for  the  period   from   September  5, 
1904,  to  October  21,  1907. 

"The  family  of  our  deceased  Brother  are  of  the  opinion  that  the 
Lodge  is  indebted  to  them  for  benefits  covering  the  period  mentioned. 
In  order  that  no  injustice  may  be  done,  I--recommend  that  the  case  be 
referred  to  the  incoming  Grand  Master  for  further  examination  and 
action.     . 

OWEN  SCOTT,  Grand  Master." 

The  Honorable  W.  M.  Groves,  who  succeeded  Brother  Scott  as 
Grand  Master,  appointed  Brother  A.  T.  Roner  as  his  special  Deputy 
to  conduct  a  thorough  investigation  and  report  all  the  facts  in  con- 
nection with  the  case.  Brother  Roner  went  into  the  matter  very  ex- 
tensively and  heard  testimony  on  behalf  of  the  family  and  also  on 
behalf  of  the  Lodge.  He  reported  to  the  Grand  Master  that  in  his 
opinion  the  claim  should  not  be  sustained  and  Grand  Master  Groves 
approved  the  decision  made  by  his  special  Deputy,  Brother  Roner,  and 
the  Grand  Lodge  approved  the  Grand  Master's  action. 

See  Grand  Lodge  Journal.  1909,  page  71  ,which  is  as  follows: 

"THE  ROOS  CASE." 

"On  page  370  of  the  Journal  of  190S.  in  the  Grand  Master's  Sup- 
plemental Report,  he  refers  the  claim  of  Mr.  Otto  Roos,  son  of  Edward 
Roos,  deceased,  late  member  of  Lily  of  the  West  Lodge  No.  407,  to  me 
for  further  investigation,  and  I  appointed  as  my  special  deputy,  Bro. 
A.  T.  Roner,  who  gave  the  claim  a  thorough  investigation,  and  re- 
ported to  me  that,  in  his  opinion,  the  Lodge  should  be  sustained  in 
refusing  to  pay  the  claim,  and  I  concurred  in  his  opinion." 

The  Grand  Master's  action  was  approved  by  the  Grand  Lodge. 
See  Fourth  Report  of  the  Committee  on  the  State  of  the  Order,  Journal 
1909,  page  439. 

On  the  19th  day  of  November,  1909,  suit  was  instituted  in  the 
Municipal  Court  of  Chicago  by  Rosa  Roos,  Otto  Roos  and  Ida  Roos, 
Trustees  under  the  last  will  and  testament  of  Edward  Roos,  against 
Lily  of  the  West  Lodge,  to  recover  the  sum  of  One  Thousand  Dollars 
($1,000)  for  sick  benefits. 

The  Lodge  defended  this  suit  and  on  June  30,  1910,  the  court  found 
the  issues  for  the  plaintiffs  and  assessed  the  plaintiff's  damages  in  the 
sum  of  Six  Hundred  ,Sixty-nine  Dollars  ($669). 

On  July  23,  1910,  the  Lodge  filed  its  writ  of  error  in  the  Appellate 
Court. 

On  the  11th  day  of  December,  1912,  the  judgment  of  the  Municipal 
Court  was  affirmed  by  the  Appellate  Court. 

The  Appellate  Court  based  its  decision  upon  Section  211 4  of 
Merrills'   Code,   1906,   which   provides   as   follows:      "A  Lodge   Bv-Law

requiring  certified  notice  of  sickness  or  disability  to  be  sent  to  the 
Lodge  once  a  week  or  once  in  two  weeks  may  not  be  enforced  against 
a  Brother  who  is  insane.  Such  a  Brother  is  incapacitated  from  com- 
plying with  it." 

Relative  to  this  the  Court  said:  "This  constitutes  an  express 
declaration  by  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  Order  binding  upon  the  Sub- 
ordinate Lodge,  of  which  the  deceased  was  a  member,  that  the  pro- 
visions of  the  By-Laws  of  the  Subordinate  Lodge  relating  to  the  notice 
here  involved  may  not  be  enforced  against  a  Brother  who  is  insane, 
and  that  such  Brother  is  incapacitated  from  complying  therewith." 

Your  petitioners  filed  a  petition  for  rehearing  in  the  Appellate 
Court  and  this  petition  was  denied. 

On  the  9th  day  of  January,  1913,  your  petitioners  paid  the  amount 
of  the  judgment,  Six  Hundred  Sixty-nine  Dollars  ($669)  and  interest. 
on  the  same,  amounting  to  Eighty-four  and  45/100  Dollars  ($84.45), 
and  in  addition  to  the  above  your  petitioner  has  paid  the  following 
amounts  for  court  costs: 

Appearance  fee  in  Municipal  Court $    2.00 

Docket  fee,  Appellate  Court 10.00 

Paid  stenographers  for  writing  up  record 52.00

Your  petitioner  represents  that  it  has  acted  under  the  instructions 
of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  has  always  obeyed  the  mandates  of  the  Grand 
Lodge,  and  that  in  so  doing,  in  this  matter  it  has  been  required  to  pay 
out  and  has  paid  out  in  addition  to  the  amount  of  the  judgment  and

Nov.    18.    1913.  1 : '_±. 

I  recommend  that  the  amount  of  money  expended  by  Lily  of  the 
West  Lodge  to  reimburse  for  court  costs  and  expenses  be  repaid  by 
this  Grand  Lodge. 

CORRESPONDENCE. 

The  correspondence  of  the  Grand  Master's  office  this  year  has 
been  something  wonderful.  There  have  been  sent  out  of  this  office 
over  6,200  letters;  2,025  of  these  letters  were  the  circular  letters  sent 
out  in  reference  to  dropping  for  non-payment  of  dues.  The  remainder 
does  not  include  any  part  of  the  official  communications  that  have  been 
sent  out  from  the  Grand  Secretary's  office  to  the  various  Lodges  of  the 
state,  nor  the  monthly  vouchers  and  warrants  that  arrive  at  and  go 
from  the  Grand  Master's  office  from  each"*of  the  Homes. 

This  means  that  the  Grand  Master  has  received  over  4,200  letters, 
that  he  has  read  and  answered  them.  Of  this  number  about  600  refer 
especially  to  the  Rebekah  Branch  of  the  Order.  In  addition  to  the  con- 
siderable time  required  in  dictating  answers  to  these  4,200  letters,  there 
is  connected  therewith  the  necessity  of  making  a  more  or  less  examina 
tion  of  the  law,  about  which  most  of  these  letters  inquire. 

If  the  Grand  Maste/  s  recommendation  in  regard  to  placing  some 
of  this  burden  upon  the  President  of  the  Rebekah  Assembly  should  be 
carried  into  effect,  the  Grand  Master  will  not  only  be  relieved  of 
writing  about  600  letters,  but  he  will  also  be  relieved  of  looking  up  the 
law  about  which  the  good  Sisters  inquire.  I  can  safely  say  that  this 
would  save  the  Grand  Master  at  least  one-tenth  of  his  time,  which 
means  more  than  one  whole  month  of  his  term  of  office. 

It  is  true  that  the  law  provides  that  the  Grand  Master  is  not  bound 
to  answer  any  communication  not  under  seal  of  the  Lodge  or  from 
his  District  Deputy  Grand  Master.  "While  this  is  true,  the  humblest 
member  of  the  Order  feels  that  he  has  a  right  to  communicate  with 
the  Grand  Master  and  if  the  Grand  Master  simply  replies:  "My  Dear 
Brother:  Since  your  letter  is  not  under  the  seal  of  the  Lodge  and  you 
are  not  my  Deputy,  I"  am  not  bound  to  answer  the  same." 

The  same  two-cent  postage  and  letter  that  carried  this  information 
to  the  humble  Brother  would  also  carry  the  information  the  humble 
Brother  was  asking  for. 

As  Grand  Master  for  the  year  1913  there  has  been  no  communica- 
tion come   into   my  office  that  has   not  been   properly   acknowledged. 

I  refer  to  this  matter  of  correspondence  that  the  Brotherhood 
may  know  the  necessity  of  the  appropriation  for  stenographer  and 
office  expenses  which  I  deem  to  include  postage  as  well  as  office  rents. 

In  addition  to  the  correspondence  above  referred  to  there  is  a  vast 
amount  of  long  distance  telephone  and  telegraph  charges  to  be  paid 
by  the  Grand  Master.

DROPPED   FOR    NON-PAYMENT    OF    DUES. 

There  was  a  special  committee  appointed  by  Grand  Master  Hub- 
bard consisting  of  Brother  Geo.  F.  Howard,  P.G.M.,  Joseph  B.  Brown. 
Grand  Representative,  and  Brother  J.  R.  Baker,  to  investigate  the 
causes  of  members  being  dropped  from  the  Order  for  non-payment  of 
dues  and  other  reasons. 

At  the  last  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  this  committee  made  a 
very  complete  report  showing  great  thought  and  consideration  on  the 
subject.  The  committee  also  recommended  that  the  further  consider- 
ation of  the  subject  be  referred  to  the  incoming  Grand  Master  with  full 
power  to  act.  The  report  of  the  committee  and  recommendations  were 
laid  over  one  year.     See  G>J.  1912,  page  406. 

The  experience  of  the  Grand  Master  during  the  past  year  demon- 
strates to  him  the  correctness  of  the  report  of  this  committee.  Or. 
January  24,  1913,  the  following  circular  letter  was  sent  with  a  post 
card  addressed  to  the  Grand  Master,  enclosed  for  reply: 

Sullivan,  111..  January  24,  1913. 
To  the  Omicers  and  Members  of  Subordinate  Lodges,   I.  O.   0.   F.   of 
Illinois: 

A  Special  Committee  on  "Dropped  Members"  reported  several 
recommendations  to  the  last  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  was  con- 
tinued and  instructed  to  act  in  connection  with  the  incoming  Grand 
Master  to  devise  ways  and  means  to  prevent,  if  possible,  the  dropping 
of  members  for  non-payment  of  dues,  and  to  further  this  plan  the 
Grand  Master  requests  that  each  Subordinate  Lodge  furnish  to  him  the 
name  and  post  office  address  of  those  Brothers  who  are  in  arrears 
and  liable  to  be  dropped  for  non-payment  of  dues. 

A  post  card  addressed  to  the  Grand  Master  is  inclosed  for  your 
reply.  It  will  be  the  duty  of  the  Financial  Secretary  to  furnish  this 
information  from  his  records  and  forward  this  post  card  to  the  Grand 
Master. 

Thanking  you  in  advance  for  this  favor,   I  remain. 

Yours  fraternally, 

Attest:  JOHN   E.   JENNINGS. 

JNO.  H.   SIKES,  Grand  Master. 

Grand  Secretary. 

In  reply  to  this  circular  were  393  letters  received  containing  the 
names  and  addresses  of  2,025  members.  To  each  of  th.e  2,025  members 
was  sent  the  following  letter: 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother: — I  am  informed  by  the  Secretary  of  your 
Odd  Fellows  Lodge  that  you  are  in  arrears  for  dues  and  you  are  liable 
to  be  dropped  for  non-payment  of  dues  in  the  near  future. 


Tuesday         7       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  JJ 


Nov.    18.    1013.  ( 


I  am  writing  you  this  letter  to  urge  you  to  pay  your  dues  and 
continue  in  good  standing  in  the  Order,  so  that  you  may  help  in  the 
great  work  our  Order  is  doing.  Possibly  some  day  our  Order  may  be 
of  great  service   to  you. 

In  addition  to  the  immense  amount  of  relief  being  extended  by 
each  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodge  in  Illinois,  we  are  educating  and 
fitting  for  life  160  orphan  children,  in  our  Orphan's  Home  at  Lincoln, 
and  caring  for  129  aged  members  in  our  Old  Folks'  Home  at  Mattoon., 
If  Odd  Fellowship  in  Illinois  alone  does  no  more  than  the  above,  ought 
you  not  continue  to  help  in  this  great  and  good  work? 

We  are  proud  of  the  record  Odd  Fellowship  has  made,  not  only  in 
Illinois,  but  throughout  the  world.  Today  we  number  over  150,000 
members  in  Illinois,  with  a  total  enrollment  throughout  the  world  of 
2,073,680. 

The  Order  is  expending  more  than  five  and  one-half  million 
dollars  annually  to  assist  those  in  distress.  Illinois  alone  expending 
the  large  sum  of  $335,363.53  in  1912. 

Fraternities  are  the  great  heart  schools  of  this  country,  in  the 
maintenance  of  which  each  Odd  Fellow  has  a  part  to  perform.  We* 
need  your  help  in  this  work. 

I  feel  that  you  want  to  continue  your  membership  in  this  the 
greatest  fraternal  organization  in  the  world,  and  that  the  cause  of 
your  arrearage  is  neglect. 

I  sincerely  hope  you  will  pay  up  and  continue  with  us. 

Yours  fraternally, 

JOHN   E.   JENNINGS. 

Grand  Master. 

One  hundred  and  thirty-two  letters  were  returned  to  my  office 
uncalled  for,  and  the  Grand  Master  received  41  replies  to  thisi  letter. 
There  was  dropped  for  non-payment  of  dues  3,716  during  the  year 
ending  March  31,  1913.  It  is  therefore,  still  uncertain  the  reason 
why  members  suffer  themselves  to  be  dropped. 

I  would  recommend  that  this  committee  and  the  incoming  Grand 
Master  use  a  follow-up  system,  obtaining  from  the  different  character  of 
Lodges,  large,  small  and  medium,  city  and  country,  the  names  and  post 
office  addresses  of  a  sufficient  number  of  members  who  were  dropped  to 
make  the  list  representative,  then  the  Grand  Master  direct  a  personal 
letter  with  return  postage  included,  consisting  largely  of  questions 
easily  answered,  inquiring  of  the  members  for  such  information  as  the 
committee  and  Grand  Master  desires.  Tabulate  the  information  and 
report  to  the  next  Grand  Lodge  what  their  efforts  have  developed.  I 
believe  in  this  way-  we  can  arrive  at  some  practical  plan  to  prevent 
the  great  loss  by  dropped  members.

OUR  HOMES. 

The  Orphans'  Home  at  Lincoln,  during  the  year  1913,  has  had 
its  customary  success.  Owing  to  the  legislation  passed  at  the  last 
session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  "Half  Orphans"  are  now,  under  certain 
conditions,  admissible  to  the  Home.  Many  of  such  have  been  admitted  » 
thus  increasing  the  cost  of  maintenance  and  the  requirements  of 
school  purposes.     These  conditions  must  be  met. 

The  report  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Orphans'  Home  show 
that  this  Home  is  in  splendid  condition  in  every  respect.  It  shows 
that  a  new  dormitory  building  is  ready  for  dedication  and  it  is  our 
plan  to  dedicate  this  building  Thursday  afternoon,  November  20. 

For  the  first  time  in  a  number  of  years  the  directors  of  this  Home 
have  run  the  Home  during  the  year  inside  of  the  amount  appropriated 
for  that  purpose.     I  desire  to  compliment  them  upon  this  fact. 

In  the  report  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  this  Home  they  suggest 
three  important  matters. 

First — That  before  a  child  is  eligible  to  admission  into  this  home 
its  parent  upon  whom  its  admission  depends,  shall  have  been  a 
member  of  the  Independent  Order  of  the  Odd  Fellows  continuously 
for  five  years,  and  that  he  shall  have  been  continuously  a  member  of 
the  Order  in  the  jurisdiction  in  Illinois  for  a  period  of  three  years. 

Second — That  the  board  of  directors  be  permitted  to  utilize  the 
present  chapel  building  for  school  purposes. 

Third — That  an  appropriation  of  $15,000  be  granted  for  the  con- 
struction of  a  new  chapel. 

VISITATIONS   OF   THE   GRAND   MASTER. 

The  Grand  Master  has  visited  this  home  several  times  during  the 
year  and  has  always  found  it  in  the  very  best  condition.  I  desire 
especially  to  mention  to  his  visit  to  the  Home  on  Friday,  June  6,  1913, 
to  attend  the  seventeenth  annual  commencement  of  the  students 
of  the  home.     The  following  program  was  furnished:

The  Grand  Maslter  was  honored  by  being  permitted  to  deliver  the 
"Class  Address."  There  were  many  other  interesting  addresses  made 
by  leading  members  present.  According  to  a  long  established  custom 
of  the  Grand  Lodge,  the  Grand  Master  was  permitted  to  deliver  to 
each  of  the  twelve  graduates,  a  $10.00  gold  piece  with  the  compliments 
of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois.  There  is  no  doubt  in  the  mind  of  the 
Grand  Master,  but  that  the  gold  pieces  really  did  more  good  than  the 
addresses. 

I  desire  to  compliment  Superintendent  and  Matron,  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
Lucas  and  all  the  other  help  about  the  home  for  the  orderly  and" 
cleanly  manner  in  which  the  home  is  maintained  at  all  times. 

I  re-suggest  that  every  Lodge  in  the  state  delegate  some  Brother 
or  Sister  to  visit  this  Home  during  the  next  twelve  months  and  report 
the  conditions  discovered  back  to  their  Lodge. 

RECOMMENDATIONS. 

The  Grand  Master  would  recommend  that  such  legislation  be 
passed  as  will  require  the  parent  of  a  child  to  have  been  a  member  of

the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows  for  at  least  five  continuous  years 
and  a  member  of  the  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  for  at  least  three  con- 
tinuous years  last  past,  before  the  orphan  or  half  orphan  shall  be 
eligible  to  admission  to  this  home. 

I  also  recommend  that  the  Board  of  Directors  of  this  Home  be  per- 
mitted to  use  the  chapel  building  now  upon  said  premises  for  school 
purposes  in  such  manner  as  may  be  approved  by  the  Grand  Master, 
Deputy  Grand  Master  and  Grand  Warden  of  this  Grand  Lodge. 

I  am  informed  by  the  County  Clerk  of  Logan  county  that  none  of 
the  properties  of  the  I.  O.  0.  P.,  Orphans'  Home  are  taxable  for  either 
state,  county  or  municipal  purposes.  This  being  true,  I  am  in  favor 
of  a  reasonable  appropriation  for  a  new  chapel  at  the  Orphans'  home  at 
Lincoln,    111. 

OLD   FOLKS'    HOME. 

I  have  visited  the  Old  Folks'  Home  at  Mattoon  many  times  during 
the  past  year.  These  visits  have  been  of  from  the  length  of  two  hours 
to  a  day  and  a  half.  I  have  gone  over  the  farm,  stock  pens,  barns, 
implement  sheds,  hot  house  and  heating  plant,  in  fact,  all  of  the  build- 
ings in  connection  with  the  home  and  I  am  pleased  to  say  that  I  have 
uniformly  found  them  in  splendid  condition.  The  home  proper  is  a 
model  of  cleanliness  and  orderly  arrangement. 

I  desire  the  Brotherhood  to  know  and  always  remember  that 
there  is  a  wide  distinction  between  our  Home  at  Mattoon  and  our 
home  at  Lincoln,  in  so  far  as  complete  satisfaction  among  the  members 
is  concerned.  To  demonstrate  the  good  faith  of  one  Brother  and  his 
wife,  as  members  of  the  Home,  I  desire  the  Fraternity  to  read  the 
following  letter: 

I.    0.    O.    F.    HOME,    MATTOON,    ILLINOIS. 

August   16,   1913. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master,  Sullivan,  Illinois. 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother: — I,  H.  W.  Franke,  member  of  I.  O.  O.  F., 
Home,  in  behalf  of  my  dear  companion,  feel  it  my  duty  as  a  true  Odd 
Fellow  to  thank  the  Board  of  Trustees  and  the  management  of  our 
home,  for  the  many  courtesies  received  at  their  hand  through  you. 
Worthy  Grand  Master,  also  for  their  cheerful  willingness  in  consulta- 
tion with  our  home  Doctor,  Dr.  Bryan,  to  undergo  the  serious  operation 
which  looks  to  me,  very  successful,  from  the  condition  she  was  in  this 
morning. 

She  is  in  the  Memorial  Hospital  in  Mattoon,  and  I  do  hope  and  pray 
for  her  speedy  recovery. 

Thanks  to  the  Sisters  and  Brothers  of  the  Home  for  their  sympathy 
and  flowers  which  they  give  me  to  take  to  her  to  the  hospital,  which

she  appreciated  very  much.  She  told  me  that  those  flowers,  as  she 
looked  at  them,  meant  more  to  her  than  if  they  had  put  them  on  the 
top  of  her  casket. 

Also  I  have  to  thank  the  Odd  Fellows  of  this  state,  through  you, 
Worthy  Grand  Master,  for  the  good  they  are  doing  for  humanity's  sake. 
God  bless  you,  Grand  Master,  Officers  and  all  the  members  of  our  Order, 
is  the  prayer  of  your  Brother  in 

F.  L.  and   T., 
H.  W.  FRANKE. 

It  would  not  be  true  to  say  that  I  have  received  no  complaints 
in  regard  to  the  Old  Folks'  Home.  I  have  received  complaints,  and 
upon  the  receipt  of  each  and  every  one  I  have  made  a  personal  visit 
to  the  home  and  investigated  the  matters  to  the  best  of  my  ability  and 
time  at  my  disposal.  I  am  pleased  to  report  to  this  Grand  Lodge  that 
none  of  the  complaints  that  I  have  received  in  regard  to  the  Old  Folks' 
Home  at  Mattoon  have  been  of  any  material  importance  after  the  same 
had  been  inquired  into. 

Brother  and  Sister  North  are  entitled  to  all  the  credit  that  the 
average  member  of  the  Order  are  inclined  to  give  them.  It  is  cer- 
tainly a  test  of  patience,  endurance  and  temper  to  control  the  good 
Brothers  and  Sisters  in  this  home.  I  feel  that  Brother  and  Sister 
North  have  exercised  these  virtues  and  controlled  the  home  in  a  mas- 
terful manner. 

There  are  some'  changes  in  regard  to  the  management  of  this  home 
that  I  would  make  or  that  you  would  make,  but  after  the  changes  were 
made,  it  would  remain  a  serious  question  as  to  whether  or  not  we  had 
bettered  the  conditions,  except  in  one  or  two  instances  that  I  will 
mention  later  on. 

Considering  the  dry,  hot  summer,  the  farming  industry  at  the 
home  is  certainly  to  be  complimented,  so  is  the  prudent  manner  in 
caring  for  what  little  there  was  raised  upon  the  farm  during  the 
season. 

I  am  informed  by  the  report  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  home 
that  they  have  managed  the  home  this  year  within  the  amount  of 
money  that  was  appropriated  for  that  purpose  by  the  last  Grand  Lodge 
session. 

There  is  no  set  of  men  that  have  more  difficult  problems  than  this 
board  of  trustees.  I  have  met  with  them  and  know  them  so  well  per- 
sonally that  I  am  convinced  that  no  part  of  their  private  business 
obtains  the  care  and  attention  as  does  the  affairs  of  the  Old  Folks' 
Home  at  Mattoon. 

The  advisory  board  of  the  home  at  Mattoon,  also  the  advisory  board 
of  the  home  at  Lincoln,  is  constituted  of  Sisters  who  give  of  their  time 
and  energies   for  the  betterment  of  these  two  homes,   they  answer  a

splendid  purpose  and  can  be,  and  are,  a  great  service  to  each  of  the 
home  boards. 

RECOMMENDATIONS. 

The  Grand  Master  desires  to  recommend  that  there  be  con- 
structed at  the  Old  Folks'  Home  at  Mattoon,  Illinois,  a' separate  dining 
room  of  sufficient  size  to  accommodate,  upon  the  ground  floor,  the 
Superintendent  and  Matron,  the  day  and  .light  nurses  and  all  other 
help  employed  in  and  about  the  home,  and  that  the  second  story  of 
the  building  be  fitted  up  for  sleeping  purposes. 

The  Grand  Master  desires  to  further  recommend  that  an  isolated 
building  be  constructed  at  the  Old  Folks'  Home  in  Mattoon  in  which 
to  care  for  that  class  of  members  coming  to  the  home,  who  are  really 
fit  patients  for  a  hospital  and  not  fit  members  for  our  Old  Folks'  Home 
during  the  time  that  it  has  no  isolated  building  in  which  "to  care  for 
them. 

Many  Brothers  and  Sisters  are  admitted  into  the  home  as  proper 
members  for  the  home,  but  the  increase  of  years  and  the  infirmities 
that,  come  with  them  transpose  the  same  Brothers  and  Sisters  into 
purely  hospital  patients  and  we  should  have  some  place  at  the  home 
in  which  to  care  for  them. 

MEETINGS  OF  THE  ASSOCIATED   FRATERNAL  CHARITIES. 

The  third  annual  meeting  of  this  association  was  held  at  the  Odd 
Fellows  Orphans'  Home,  at  Lincoln,  Illinois,  Monday,  September  1,  19i3, 
which  your  Grand  Master  attended,  together  with  Deputy  Grand  Master 
Darnall,  Superintendent  and  Matron  of  the  Old  Folks'  Home.  Brother 
and  Sister  North,  and  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Lucas,  of  the  Orphans'  Home, 
Brother  Pumphrey  and  wife,  Superintendent  and  Matron  of  the  Illi- 
nois Masonic  Home,  of  Sullivan.  Illinois.  Brother  Clark  and  wife,  Sup- 
erintendent and  Matron  of  the  Knights  of  Pythias  Home  of  Decatur, 
111.,  and  the  Superintendent  of  the  Illinois  Masonic  Orphans'  Home,  at 
LaGrange,  111.,  Brother  Moulton  and  Brother  Dixon  of  the  Masonic 
Fraternity.  Brother  Owen  Scott  representing  the  Eastern  Star 
Home  of  Macon,  Illinois,  and  several  other  prominent  fraternity  people 
were  present. 

Brother  Warren  C.  Darnall  was  elected  chairman  for  the  next  year 
of  this  association;  Brother  W.  K.  Whitfield.  Grand  Chancellor  of  the 
Knights  of  Pythias'  Domain,  of  Illinois,  was  elected  vice-president. 

Addresses  were  made  by  most  of  the  members  present. 

The  main  purpose  of  this  organization  has  been  to  ascertain,  if  pos- 
sible, a  method  by  which  a  hospital  could  be  erected  by  the  three  fra- 
ternities. Masonic.  Odd  Fellows  and  Knights  of  Pythias,  in  which  to 
care  for  the  hospital  patients  of  each  fraternity. 


KlovTUl|dai913  !       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  83 

Since  the  holding  of  this  meeting  in  Lincoln,  I  am  creditably 
informed  that  the  Masonic  fraternity  in  Illinois,  has  provided  an 
appropriation  of  $50,000.00  with  which  to  construct  an  isolated  hospital 
building  in  connection  with  the  Illinois  Masonic  Home  at  Sullivan, 
111.,  therefore  in  the  future  the  matter  of  a  hospital  will  be  eliminated 
from  the  meetings  of  this  association,  the  next  one  of  which  will  be 
held  at  Sullivan,  at  the  Illinois  Masonic  Home. 

The  meetings  of  this  association  accomplish  great  good  in  bringing 
together  the  superintendents  and  matrons  of  the  various  fraternal 
homes  of  the  state  and  in  the  course  of  time  avails  each  superintendent 
and  matron  with  the  privilege  of  visiting  and  inspecting  the  homes 
of  the  other  fraternal  Orders. 

Your  Grand  Master  approves  of  these  meetings  and  recommends 
that  the  superintendents  and  matrons  of  both  our  homes  attend  the 
next  meeting  of  this,  association. 

ODD  FELLOWS'  LEAGUE  AND  RELIEF  BOARD. 

At  one  time  there  were  two  separate  Odd  Fellows'  concerns  in  Chi- 
cago that  undertook  to  relieve  transient  Brothers.  They  were  com- 
bined a  few  years  ago  and  now  exist  as  the  "Odd  Fellows'  League  and 
Relief  Board,"  of  which  Bro.  J.  W.  Jackson  is  President  and  Col.  Harold 
A.  Jensen  is  Secretary,  and  their  headquarters  are  Room  49,  54  W. 
Randolph    St..    Chicago,    Illinois. 

By  direction  of  the  Grand  Lodge,  this  Odd  Fellows'  League  and 
Relief  Board  assumes  the  duty  of  caring  for  distressed  Brothers  and 
Sisters  in  Cook  county  and  especially  in  the  city  of  Chicago,  that 
arrive  there  from  other  jurisdictions. 

It  is  with  pleasure  that  I  can  recommend  the  work  of  this  board. 
I  have  visited  their  quarters  and  the  President  and  Secretary  have 
shown  me  the  records  of  many  cases  where  they  have  been  of  the 
greatest  value  to  the  distressed  members  of  the  Fraternity. 

In  my  official  communication  of  July  15,  I  said:  "I  desire  to  call 
the  attention  of  the  Lodges  of  Cook  county  to  their  obligation  to 
support  the  Odd  Fellows'  League  and  Relief  Board.  I  also  desire  to 
remind  every  other  Lodge  in  the  State  that  a  small  contribution  to 
this  Relief  Board  would  be  a  splendid  aid  to  the  Relief  Board  in  Chi- 
cago and  to  the  honor  and  the  credit  of  the  country  everywhere." 

The  necessity  for  the  above  suggestion  is  as  great  now  as  then. 
Nothing  advances  the  interest  of  our  Order  as  thoroughly  and  satis- 
factorily as  the  relief  of  distress  and  it  is  with  pleasure  that  I  sub 
mit  the  report  of  the  Odd  Fellows'  League  and  Relief  Board,  recently 
filed  in  my  office:

Chicago,  111.,  Sept.  16,  1913. 
Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master  ,1.  O.  O.  F.,  Sullivan,  111. 

Dear  Brother  Jennings — Complying  with  your  request  for  an  early 
report  of  the  work  of  the  League  for  the  past  year,  I  beg  to  submit 
for  your  approval  the  following  report  of  the  present  condition  of  the 
League,  and  a  general  report  of  the  work  accomplished  during  the 
past  year. 

I  am  pleased  to  be  able  to  say  that  the  Organization  is  prospering, 
and  that  the  work  is  constantly  increasing.  You  will  note  from  the 
figures  as  stated  in  this  report,  that  the  variety  of  the  cases  taken  care 
of  is  greater  than  ever.  We  endeavor  to  give  each  case  our  prompt 
and  personal  attention,  and  thus  bring  about  satisfactory  results. 

I  am  pleased  to  report  that  the  majority  of  Subordinate  and 
Rebekah  Lodges  in  Cook  county  are  very  prompt  and  liberal  in  their 
support,  there  are  but  very  few  of  the  Lodges  that  do  not  pay  the 
ten  cents  per  member  a  year  as  requested  by  the  Grand  Master. 

The  office  furniture,  etc.,  is  in  a  very  good  condition;  several 
improvements  have  been  made  during  the  year. 

The  receipts  from  all  sources  during  the  past  year  were  $1,963.86, 
and  disbursements  for  the  same  period,  $1,648.94;  216  Brothers,  24 
Sisters,  10  sons  and  7  daughters  of  Odd  Fellows  applied  for  employ- 
ment; 175  letters  of  recommendation  were  given,  136  of  whom  re- 
ported having  secured  positions.  These  applicants  represented  21 
states,  and  several  jurisdictions  in  Canada.  247  Brothers  and  Sisters, 
representing  32  states  and  Canada,  were  reported  sick,  dead  or  injured. 
These  were  cared  for  by  the  League,  or  referred  to  the  nearest  local 
Lodge.  72  Brothers  and  Sisters,  representing  23  states  and  Canada, 
applied  for  and  were  given  financial  relief  amounting  to  $1,607.13,  of 
which  $1,581.33  were  paid  back  to  the  League.  32  requisitions  were 
issued  for  reduced  rates  on  hospitals;  25  nurses  were  furnished  at 
reduced  rates;  8  members  referred  to  the  Legal  Board;  14  Brothers 
reported  missing,  several  of  these  were  located  through  the  efforts 
of  the  League.  Several  of  the  above  mentioned  cases  have  taken 
days  and  weeks  to  conclude,  but  as  the  result  we  have  had  the  pleasure 
of  seeing  Brothers  and  Sisters  benefitted  thereby. 

We  greatly  appreciate  the  many  courtesies  extended  us  by  the 
Grand  Master,  and  feel  confident  that  your  successor  will  do  the  same. 

Fraternally  yours, 

HAROLD   A.   JENSEN, 

General  Secretary. 

TENT  AT  STATE   FAIR. 

According  to  an  ancient  custom,  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Odd  Fellows 
have  maintained  a  "Rest  Tent"  during  the  session  of  the  Illinois  State 


Tuesday,        J       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  85

Fair.  We  maintained  a  tent  at  the  Fair  this  year.  It  was  in  charge 
of  Brother  A.  H.  Gardner,  Grand  Sentinel,  and  furnished  shade  and 
rest  for  many  weary  sojourners. 

At  the  same  time  the  Grand  Master  is  inclined  to  be  of  the  opinion 
that  unless  our  Order  can  obtain  better  accommodations  from  the 
Fair  Association  in  the  future  that  the  Order  abandon  this  feature. 
I  am  of  the  opinion  that  Brother  Gardner  and  Brother  Horn  did 
everything  possible,  within  their  means,  to  make  this  tent  attractive 
and  a  desirable  place  for  the  meeting  of  Odd  Fellows  and  the  leaving 
of  parcels,  etc.  In  my  visitations  to  the  tent  the  conditions  were  not 
at  all  satisfactory  to  me  and  I  recommend  that  the  Grand  Lodge 
appropriate  a  sufficient  amount  of  money  to  maintain,  on  the  State 
Fair  Ground  at  Springfield,  111.,  in  some  suitable  position,  a  desirable 
and  comfortable  retreat  where  Odd  Fellows  and  Rebekahs  may  leave 
their  packages  and  meet  and  greet  each  other  in  comfortable  and 
pleasant  surroundings  or  that  the  Grand  Lodge  abandon  the  main- 
taining of  any  rest  tent  on  the  State  Fair  grounds. 

THE    MATTER   OF    HOME    PICTURES. 

By  instructions  of  the  last  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  a  pamphlet 
entitled  "The  Home  Picture  Book"  was  issued.  Many  tnousands  of 
these  books  have  been  issued  and  sent  out  and  under  date  of  February, 
1913,  the  following  circular  letter  was  sent  from  the  Grand  Master's 
office  in  regard  to  this  book:

HISTORY  OF  OUR   HOMES. 

A  very  neat  and  handsomely  bound  volume  containing  a  History 
of  Our  Orphans'  Home  at  Lincoln,  and  Old  Folks'  Home  at  Mattoon, 
was  prepared  by  a  committee  appointed  by  Grand  Master  Hubbard, 
published  and  distributed  to  the  Fraternity  in  Illinois. 

This  little  book  is  of  immense  value  to  the  Fraternity  and  it  should 
be  well  preserved  in  the  hands  of  every  member  in  the  State.  Every 
individual  Odd  Fellow  who  desiresi  to  know  the  exact  facts  in  regard 
to  our  Homes  can  obtain  them  from  this  little  book  that  sells  for  only 
25c  per  copy.  It  was  distributed  to  the  Fraternity  throughout  the 
State  free,  in  accordance  with  the  following  circular,  and  owing  to 
the  fact  of  its  great  volume,  the  history  itself  is  omitted  from  this 
report. 

Sullivan,  111..  July  15,  1913. 
To  the  Officers  and   Members  of  the  Subordinate  Lodges,  I.  O.  O.  F. 

of  Illinois: 

By  action  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd 
Fellows  of  the  Jurisdiction  of  Illinois  and  on  the  recommendation  of 
the  then  Grand  Master,  Hon.  James  Ewing  Davis,  a  committee  was 
appointed  by  his  successor,  Grand  Master  W.  A.  Hubbard,  to  prepare 
for  publication  a  History  of  the  Homes  for  Odd  Fellows  and  their 
dependents  in  Illinois. 

That  committee  has  completed  its  works.  The  History  has  been 
published  and  is  now  ready  for  distribution. 

By  action  of  the  same  Grand  Lodge  it  was  directed  that  one  copy 
of  this  History  be  furnished  to  each  Lodge  in  the  State. 

The  copies  of  this  History  are  now  ready  to  go  out  to  the  various 
Lodges  of  the  State  free  of  charge  and  expense. 


NovTUl|dai913  }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  8/ 

It  has  been  determined  by  the  Finance  Committee  of  the  Grand 
Lodge  of  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows  that  these  books 
shall  be  sold  to  individuals  or  to  Lodges  at  the  price  of  twenty-five 
cents. 

This  little  book  entitled  "History  of  our  Homes"  is  one  of  the 
best  compilations  of  facts  in  connection  with  our  Homes  that  has  been 
made  so  far.  When  your  Lodge  receives  its  copy  of  this  production  I 
request  that  the  Noble  Grand  of  your  Lodge  cause  to  be  read  so  much 
therefrom  as  the  time  of  the  Lodge  will  permit,  so  that  the  Brotherhood 
may  know  many  things  of  our  Homes  which  are  to  them  at  present 
unknown. 

Send  your  orders  for  extra  copies  to  John  H.  Sikes,  Grand  Secre- 
tary, Springfield,  Illinois,  at  25c  per  copy. 

I  desire  to  call  the  attention  of  the  Lodges  of  Cook  county  to  their 
obligation  to  support  the  Odd  Fellows'  League  and  Relief  Board.  I 
also  desire  to  remind  every  other  Lodge  in  the  State  that  a  small 
contribution  to  this  relief  board  would  be  a  splendid  aid  to  the  Relief 
Board  in  Chicago,  and  to  the  honor  and  credit  of  the  country  every 
where. 

Done  at  Sullivan,  Illinois,  this  15th  day  of  July,  A.  D.  1913.

GRAND    LODGE   VISITATIONS. 

On  account  of  the  fact  that  the  Grand  Master,  during  the  past 
year,  has  not  enjoyed  robust  health,  he  has  been  compelled  to  decline 
many  invitations  during  the  year.  However,  he  has  made  the  follow- 
ing visitations: 

December  4,  1912 — G.  Carducci  No.  948;  reception  in  Chicago.

It  will  thus  be  seen  that  considerable  of  the  Grand  Master's  time 
was  required  away  from  his  office. 

FOREIGN  CORRESPONDENCE. 

During  the  year  it  has  been  necessary  for  the  Grand  Master  to 
have  correspondence  with  the  jurisdictions  of  Arkansas,  Indiana, 
Colorado,  Alabama,  Washington,  Missouri,  New  York,  Ohio  and  Ver- 
mont. 

I  am  pleased  to  say  that  matters  concerned  were  of  no  serious 
importance  and  that  there  was  promptness  upon  the  part  of  each 
jurisdiction  in  answering  my  letters  and  that  there  is  but  one  matter 
at  this  time  open,  and  that  is  between  the  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  and 
the  jurisdiction  of  Missouri.

The  Case. 
Ben.  Lee,  a  member  of  Success  Lodge  No.  160,  of  Missouri,  came 
into  the  jurisdiction  of  my  home  Lodge,  No.  158,  Illinois,  took  sicl: 
with  typhoid  fever;  complications  arose  which  necessitated  the  ampu- 
tation of  one  of  his  limbs  above  his  knee,  incurring  an  expense  of  a 
little  over  $360.00.  The  Grand  Master  took  up  this  matter  with  the 
Grand  Secretary  of  Missouri  and  he  has  been  assured  that  the  Grand 
Lodge  of  Missouri  will  properly  look  after  this1  case;  the  local  Lodge 
to  which  Brother  Lee  belonged,  being  of  small  resources. 

We  have  the  satisfaction  of  having  received  a  splendid  letter 
from  the  Father  of  Brother  Lee  and  some  of  his  friends,  which  here 
follows : 

Kirksville,  Illinois,  Oct.,  1913. 
To  the  Officers  and  Members  of  Moultrie  Lodge  No.  158,  I.  O.  O.  F., 
Sullivan,  111.: 

My  Dear  Brothers) — I  take  this. method  of  offering  you  my  heart- 
felt thanks  for  the  kindness  and  cheer  you  have  shown  toward  my 
beloved  son,  Mr.  Ben.  Lee,  in  his  awful  suffering  and  distress,  and 
now  as  I  have  done  all  I  can  do  here,  I  will  go  to  my  home  in 
Missouri,  ever  praying  for  the  blessings  of  the  high  Heaven  to  rest 
upon  you  and  our  beloved  Brotherhood  the  world  over.  May  God 
bless  us  and  help  us  to  fraternalize  the  world. 

I  once  was  young,  but  now  I  am  old,  yet  I  have  not  seen  the 
righteous  forsaken  nor  his  seed  begging  for  bread. 

Truly  yours  in  F.  L.  &  T., 

F.  A.  LEE, 
P.G.  of  Success  Lodge  No.  160,  Success,  Mo. 
We  the  undersigned  wish  to  join  our  father  and  friend  in  express- 
ing our  thanks  to  the  members  of  Moultrie  Lodge  No.  158,  I.  O.  O.  F. 
and  all  friends  for  their  sympathy  with  us  in  this  calamity.

Great  Sachem  of  the  Improved  Order  of  Red  Men,  in  reference  to  a 
small  matter  that  is  in  process  of  settlement,  and  from  a  letter  just 
received,  I  feel  sure  the  matter  will  be  closed  up  before  the  end  of 
my  term,  for  which  I  desire  to  thank  Great  Sachem  Somers. 

The  Grand  Master  is  exceedingly  pleased  with  the  communications 
from  the  various  Grand  Jurisdictions  named  and  desires  to  appreciate 
his  thanks  herewith.

COMMUNICATIONS  FROM  GRAND  SIRE. 

I  received  the  following  letter  from  the  Grand  Sire: 

SOVEREIGN   GRAND  LODGE  OF  THE  I.  O.  O.  F. 
Office  of  the  Grand  Sire. 
C.  A.  Keller,  Grand  Sire. 

San  Antonio,  Texas,  U.  S.  A.,  April  7,  1913. 
Mr.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  Sullivan,  Illinois. 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother — On  January  2d  I  mailed  two  letters  of 
which  the  enclosed  are  copies.  I  cannot  find  that  I  ever  received  any 
reply  to  either. 

I  am  now  in  receipt  of  a  letter  from  a  Chicago  Brother  in  which 
he  says: 

"I  received  some  time  ago  a  copy  of  your  letter  to  the  Grand 
Patriarch  of  this  State,  dated  Jan.  2d,  1913,  relative  to  laws  of  the 
Order  concerning  drinking,  smoking,  etc.,  in  the  Lodge  meetings.  This 
fact  of  course  became  generally  known  to  the  members  of  the  Order, 
but  it  appears  that  the  Subordinate  Lodges  of  this  city,  or  their 
Deputies,  have  not  received  a  copy  of  this  letter,  as  we  have  had 
numerous  inquiries  at  this  office  whether  or  not  the  Grand  Master 
of  this  Jurisdiction  has  taken  the  matter  up  with  his  Deputies.  Not 
knowing  whether  or  not  you  had  instructed  him  to  do  so,  we  did 
not  communicate  with  him  about  the  matter,  but  we  were  requested 
by  a  Brother  this  morning  to  call  your  attention  to  the  fact  that 
several  Lodges  in  this  county  had  not,  nor  their  Deputies,  received 
these  instructions,  and  up  to  the  present  time  we  have  not  been  able 
to  find  ONE  Lodge  or  Deputy  in  the  Subordinate  Lodge  that  have  re- 
ceived them.  While  we  believe  that  the  law  is  generally  complied 
with,  we  should,  nevertheless,  like  to  be  informed  on  the  subject  of 
the  Subordinate  Lodges." 

Please  issue  a  circular  at  once  to  all  the  Subordinate  Lodges  and 
also  to  your  Deputies  concerning  the  enforcement  of  the  law  as  to 
smoking  and  drinking  and  give  me  the  information  desired  by  May 
1st,  if  possible. 

The  "anti-smoking  law"  was  not  intended  to  prohibit  Brothers 
from  smoking  in  any  side  room,  social  room,  or  even  ante-room,  but 
no  smoking  should  be  allowed  in  the  Lodge  room  where  the  sessions 
are  held  from  the  time  it  is  opened  until  it  is  finally  closed. 

Yours  fraternally, 

C.   A.   KELLER, 

Grand  Sire. 

To  which  I  replied  as  follows:

April  9,  1913. 
Hon.  C.  A.  Keller,  Grand  Sire,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  San  Antonio,  Tex. 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother — Your  letter  of  April  7th,  with  a  copy  of  two 
other  letters  attached,  just  received,  and  I  hasten  to  inform  you  that 
I  never  received  the  original  letters  sent  out  under  date  of  January 
2d.  Had  I  received  those  two  letters,  I  would  certainly  have  promptly 
acted  upon  them. 

I  will  immediately  issue  a  circular  directed  to  the  Subordinate 
Lodges  of  this  jurisdiction;  also  to  the  Deputies,  upon  the  two  points 
covered  in  these  letters  and  will  mail  copies  thereof  to  you,  and  will 
report  as  soon  thereafter  as  I  can  obtain  tangible  information. 

I  have  been  attending  Schools  of  Instruction  in  various  localities 
of  the  State  since  January  and  have  come  in  personal  contact  with 
thousands  of  Brothers  from  hundreds  of  different  Lodges  and  my 
correspondence  has  been  somewhat  voluminous,  and  I  have  had,  up 
to  this  time,  but  one  objection  or  complaint  in  reference  to  smoking 
in  the  Lodge  room  in  violation  of  the  law,  and  none  in  regard  to  liquor. 

I  feel  that  the  Chicago  Brother  should  report  to  me.  I  know  there 
is  no  disposition  on  the  part  of  the  Grand  Master  of  this  jurisdiction, 
or  any  of  his  Deputies  in  Cook  county,  to  wink  at  or  tolerate  any 
violation  of  the  law  of  the  Order. 

I  am  glad  you  have  sent  these  letters,  because  I  desire  to  do  my 
full  share  this  year  and  I  certainly  would  have  omitted  this  feature 
had  you  not  sent  me  these  letters. 

Again  thanking  you,  I  remain, 

Yours  fraternally, 

JOHN   E.   JENNINGS, 
Grand  Master  I.  O.  O.  F.  of  111. 

And  in  pursuance  to  the  foregoing  correspondence  the  following 
circular  letter  'was  distributed  to  the  Lodges  throughout  the  State  and 
a  copy  thereof  forwarded  to  the  Grand  Sire. 

OFFICE  OF  JOHN   E.  JENNINGS— GRAND   MASTER. 

Sullivan,  111.,  April  12,  1913. 
To  the  Offlcersi  and  Brothers  of  the  Subordinate  Lodges,  I.  O.  O.  F., 
of  Illinois. 
From  a  letter  issued  by  the  Grand  Sire  I  learn  that  he  desires  to 
know  whether  or  not  the  laws  of  the  Order  in  regard  to  the  use  of 
intoxicating  liquors  in  and  about  the  Lodge  room  are  being  violated 
in  your  Lodge,  by  bringing  of  beer,  wine  or  other  liquor  into  an 
adjoining  room  or  ante-room  at  suppers  or  banquets  and  indulged  in 
after  Lodge  is  closed.

/Nov.    is.    l!ii:i. 


The  Grand  Sire  also  desires  to  know  if  the  anti-smoke  law  is 
being  violated  in  your  Lodge,  or  if  the  Noble  Grand  of  your  Lodge  is 
in  the  habit  of  declaring  a  "recess"  in  order  that  the  Brothers  may 
indulge  in  a  smoke,  or  if  the  Brothers  smoke  in  the  Lodge  hall  while 
Lodge  is  in   session. 

The  Grand  Sire  announces  the  rule  to  be  as  follows;: 

"The  'anti-smoking  law'  was  not  intended  to  prohibit  Brothers 
from  smoking  in  any  side  room,  social  room  or  even  ante-room,  but 
no  smoking  should  be  allowed  in  the  Lodge  room  where  the  sessions 
are  held  from  the  time  it  is  opened  until  it  is  finally  closed." 

If  any  Brother  of  the  fraternity  has  any  complaint  to  make  on 
account  of  the  violation  of  the  law  in  regard  to  the  use  of  liquors  or 
smoking  in  the  Lodge  room  while  the  Lodge  is  in  session,  I  desire 
that  he  report  the  same  to  the  Grand  Master  at  once,  either  under 
seal  of  the  Lodge  or  above  his  individual  signature. 

The  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  in  our  great  fraternity  stands  for  the 
enforcement  of  the  law  in  every  respect  and  does  not  tolerate  evasions 
or  violations  thereof. 

I  desire  to  hear  from  any  and  every  Brother  who  has  a  complaint 
to  make  in  this  respect. 

Yours  fraternally, 

JOHN  E.   JENNINGS, 

Grand  Master. 

SALOON    KEEPERS    MEMBERS  OF   THE    ORDER. 

The  correspondence  came  to  my  office  from  result  of  the  fore- 
going correspondence  developed  the  necessity  of  appointing  special 
deputies  in  the  city  of  Chicago  to  investigate  the  matter  and  report 
upon  the  question  of  saloon  keepers  and  bar  tenders  being  members 
of  our  Order  in  Chicago. 

The  Grand  Master  appointed  a  sufficient  amount  of  Deputies  to 
cover  the  situation.  They  made  separate  reports  to  the  Grand  Master. 
Their  first  report  was  the  occasion  of  my  first  visit  to  Chicago,  October 
4th  and  6th.  The  result  of  this  visit  was  not  satisfactory  and  I 
appointed  another  meeting  one  week  later  and  had  my  deputies  notify 
the  Lodges  complained  against  of  this  meeting  and  asked  that  the 
Lodge  be  represented  at  the  meeting.  The  situation  was  gone  over 
thoroughly  and  based  upon  the  reports  of  my  special  deputies,  the 
resignation  of  membership  was  required  of  those  Brothers  about  whom 
there  was  no  doubt. 

The  Lodges  seemed  to  be  satisfied  to  require  these  Brothers  to 
resign  and  I  feel,  that  so  far  as  the  positive  information  is  concerned, 
that  we   obtained   the   resignation   of  those   members,   who   would   be

members  in  violation  of  the  provisions  of  our  law  in  regard  to  saloon 
keepers  and  bar  tenders. 

RECEIVING   CANDIDATES   FOR    LESS  THAN    REGULAR    FEES. 

It  has  come  to  my  knowledge  that  two  Lodges  in  Chicago  were 
receiving  members  for  less  than  the  fee  required  by  our  law.  I 
appointed  a  special  deputy  for  each  Lodge  to  investigate  these  mat- 
ters. One  Lodge  has  completely  settled  the  shortage  that  arose  by 
reason  of  taking  in  members  for  less  than  the  regular  fee. 

The  deputy  appointed  for  the  other  Lodge  has  not,  as  yet  made 
his  final  report  in  reference  to  that  Lodge,  but  from  correspondence 
had  with  him  and  the  Lodge,  I  feel  satisfied  that  they  will  also 
make  good  the  shortage  that  occurred  by  reason  of  taking  in  can- 
didates for  less  than  the  regular  fee  provided  by  our  law. 

EGYPTIAN    LODGE  CASE. 

The  following  letter  states  the  result  of  the  case  better  than 
your  Grand  Master  can  state  it,  because  of  the  fact  that  it  has  been 
pending  four  or  five  years: 

OFFICE   OF  WILLIAM    D.   LYERLE— STATE'S   ATTORNEY   UNION 

COUNTY. 

Jonesboro,  111.,  September  8,  1913. 
Mr.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master  I.  O.  O.  F.,.  Sullivan,  111. 

Dear  Brother — I  have  your  favor  of  August  20th,  in  which  you 
ask  me  to  send  you  a  report  on  the  case  of  the  Grand  Lodge  vs. 
Thos.  Boswell,  et  al,  members  of  Egyptian   Lodge. 

At  the  direction  of  a  former  Grand  Master,  I  brought  suit  for 
the  Grand  Lodge  against  a  number  of  the  members  of  Egyptian  Lodge, 
now  defunct.  The  suit  was  brought  to  the  November  term,  1912,  of 
our  circuit  court,  but  was  continued  by  agreement  until  the  next 
March  term.  On  March  the  17th,  1912,  by  direction  and  under  agree- 
ment with  the  then  Grand  Master,  I  went  to  Moorehouse,  Missouri, 
for  the  purpose  of  taking  depositions.  For  this  service  I  was  to  be 
paid  $20.00.  At  the  November  term,  1912,  the  cause  was  finally  tried 
by  a  jury  and  a  verdict  of  $56.41  obtained  against  Thos.  Boswell,  the 
only  defendent  into  whose  hands  we  could  actually  trace  the  money. 

I  did  not  consider  Boswell  solvent  and  agreed  to  give  him  some 
time  if  he  would  pay  off  the  judgment,  which  he  finally  has  done,  but 
not  until  I  had  an  execution  issued  and  served  on  him.  I  collected 
the  full  amount  of  the  judgment  $56.41  and  $1.27  interest  on  same. 
I  have  also  collected  the  advance  fee  of  $6.00  which  the  former 
Grand  Master  had  sent  me  when  I  brought  the  suit. 


()4  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  { N    Tuesdiay. 


I  Nov.    18.    1913. 


We  were  two  days  in  circuit  court  in  the  trial  of  that  case  and 
my  services,  not  including  the  taking  of  the  depositions  in  Missouri, 
were  reasonably  worth  the  judgment  and  more,  but  I  have  charged 
for  that  service  only  $35.00,  making  my  total  charge  for  services, 
$55.00. 

In  addition  to  this  charge  I  have  paid  out  for  telegrams  to  the 
Grand  Secretary  in  connection  with  this  suit,  80  cents,  making  the 
total  amount  claimed  by  me  to  be  $55.80.  I  have  collected  in  all 
including  the  judgment,  $56.41,  interest  $1.27  and  advance  fee  $6.00, 
making  a  grand  total  of  $63.68,  leaving  a  balance  due  the  Grand  Lodge 
after  the  payment  of  my  charges,  the  sum  of  $7.88. 

I  am  sending  you  herewith  my  check  payable  to  the  Grand  Lodge 
for  the  sum  of  $7.88,  the  balance  in  my  hands. 

I  would  further  report  that  the  jury  in  this  case  with  the  excep- 
tion of  one  or  possibly  two  men,  were  in  favor  of  a  much  larger 
judgment,  but  the  amount  finally  agreed  upon  after  many  hours  of 
deliberation,  was  a  compromise  verdict.  I  urged  that  an  appeal  be 
taken,  but  the  Grand  Master  at  that  time  did  not  seem  disposed  to  do 
so  and  the  matter  was  allowed  to  stand. 

I  hope  that  I  have  made  my  report  full  and  complete  enough  to 
give  you  all  the  desired  information. 

If  I  can  be  of  service  to  you  in  the  future,  I  shall  be  glad  to 
do  so. 

Yours  fraternally, 

W.    D.    LYERLE. 

This  case  grew  out  of  the  burning  of  an  Odd  Fellow's'  hall.  The 
trustees  collected  the  insurance  and  refused  to  pay  over  to  the  Grand 
Lodge  the  insurance  money.  It  is  my  information  that  all  the  books 
and  records  of  the  Lodge  were  destroyed. 

The  suit  that  has  just  been  ended  was  prosecuted  more  for  the 
purpose  to  demonstrate  to  Lodges  and  trustees  that  the  funds  of 
defunct  Lodges  belong  to  the  Grand  Lodge,  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  and 
that  correct  settlements  must  be  made,  than  to  acquire  any  consider- 
able sum  of  money,  as  the  various  Grand  Masters  through  whose 
hands  this  case  has  passed  have  always  been  aware  of  the  chances 
of  obtaining  a  very  small,  if  any,  judgment. 

CARBONDALE    PROPERTY. 

By  action  of  the  last  Grand  Lodge,  document  No.  148,  G.J.  page 
412,  the  Grand  Master  and  Grand  Secretary  were  directed,  upon  receipt 
of  $750.00  to  execute  and  deliver  a  deed  to  certain  property  in  Car- 
bondale,  111.,  to-wit:  Regular  lots  Nos.  595,  596,  597  and  598,  in  said 
city,  formerly  bequeathed  to  the  Odd  Fellows  Orphans'  Home;   trans-

NECROLOGY. 

On    February    10,    1913,    I    received    the    following   telegram    from

JOHN  H.   SIKES." 

On  receipt  of  the  above  telegram,  I  immediately  requested  Grand 
Warden,  W.  H.  Pease,  tp  attend  the  funeral  of  Brother  Willard  as  the 
personal  representative  of  the  Grand  Master. 

On  February  11  Grand  Warden  Pease,  together  with  Brother  Blood, 
Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors,  attended  the  funeral. 

Past  Grand  Secretary  Willard  has,  no  doubt,  done  more  to 
systematize  the  business  of  Odd  Fellowship  in  Illinois,  and  more  to 
collect  and  codify  the  laws  of  our  Order  in  Illinois,  than  any  other 
one  individual  since  the  introduction  of  the  Order  in  this  State.  He 
was  a  veritable  encyclopedia  of  Odd  Fellows'  customs  and  laws  and 
uses  and  business  methods.  His  work  will  live  long  in  Odd  Fellowship, 
not  only  in  Illinois,  but  throughout  the  Sovereign  Grand  Jurisdiction. 

ANNIVERSARY    PROCLAMATION. 

Sullivan,  111.,  March  10,  1913. 
To   the    Subordinate   and   Rebekah   Lodges   of   Illinois,   I.    O.    O.   F., — 

Greeting: 

Dear  Brothers  and  Sisters — Honorable  C.  A.  Keller,  Grand  Sire  of 
the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  of  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows, 
in  accordance  with  the  usage  and  the  resolution  of  the  Sovereign  Grand 
Lodge,  has  issued  a  proclamation  dated  Feb.  19,  1913,  enjoining  all 
Subordinate  and  Rebekah  "Lodges  to  celebrate  the  Ninety-fourth  Anni- 
versary of  our  Order,  on  April  26,  1913,  by  suitable  observance  of  the 
day  and  by  public  thanksgiving  to  Almighty  God  for  His  manifold 
mercies  to  us  as  individuals  and  as  an  Order. 

Now,  therefore,  I,  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master  of  the  Inde- 
pendent Order  of  Odd  Fellows  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  by  virtue  of  the 
authority  in   me  vested   and  in  compliance  with  the  proclamation  of 


96  JOURNAL   OF    PROCEEDINGS  \ 


)  Nov.    IS.    1913. 


the  Grand  Sire,  suggest  and  direct  that  each  Subordinate  and  Rebekah 
Lodge  in  the  jurisdiction  of  Illinois  celebrate  the  Ninety-fourth  Anni- 
versary of  our  Order  by  proper  exercises,  either  on  April  26,  1913,  or 
on  some  other  day  near  thereto  that  may  be  convenient  for  your 
membership. 

Brothers  and  Sisters,  in  celebrating  this  birthday  of  our  Order, 
let  it  appear  in  all  our  exercises  that  we  realize  that  our  prosperity 
as  an  Order  is  due  to  the  fact  that  the  All  Wise  Ruler  of  Heaven  and 
of  Earth  has  looked  with  favor  upon  our  achievements  and  has  per- 
mitted us  to  prosper.  From  a  membership  of  five  in  1819,  we  have 
grown  to  a  membership  of  over  1,600,000  in  1913.  There  has  been 
no  such  growth  in  any  other  fraternal  order  instituted  among  men. 
Truly  for  this  we  should  be  thankful. 

A  general  dispensation  is  hereby  granted  to  all  Subordinate  and 
Rebekah  Lodges  which  observe  this  anniversary,  in  accordance  with 
this  proclamation,  to  wear  the  regalia  of  the  Order  upon  such  occasion 
and  in  accordance  with  our  established  laws. 

Done  at  the  city  of  Sullivan,  Illinois,  this  tenth  day  of  March, 
A.  D.  1913,  and  in  the  year  of  our  Order  the  ninety-fourth. 

Attest:  JOHN  E.  JENNINGS.

anniversary  of  the  Order,  as  adopted  by  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,

Illinois;  at  twenty-five  cents  per  copy. 

MEMORIAL   DAY   PROCLAMATION.

Greeting: 

Dear  Brothers  and  Sisters — According  to  the  requirements  of  a 
standing  resolution  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  and  a  proclamation 
of  the  Grand  Sire,  C.  A.  Keller,  I  do  hereby  name  the  second  Tuesday 
of  June  next,  being  the  10th  day  of  June,  1913,  as  Memorial  Day,  and 
request  all  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodges  that  have  suffered  loss 
in  membership  by  death  to  assemble  on  that  day  or  on  any  more 
convenient  day  adjacent  thereto,  in  appropriate  services  in  memory 
of  their  deceased  members.  A  general  dispensation  to  wear  the 
regalia  of  the  Order  at  such  memorial  services  is  hereby  granted  to 
all  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodges  within  this  jurisdiction.

I.  O.  O.  F.  DEPUTIES  ASSOCIATION  OF  COOK  COUNTY. 

For  a  number  of  years  past  this  Association  has  been  holding  an 
annual  event  some  time  during  the  month  of  May,  consisting  of  having 
the  Grand  Lodge  Officers  pay  a  visit  to  the  city  of  Chicago  and  Cook 
county,  usually  covering  a  period  of  one  week. 

The  Grand  Master,  together  with  the  other  Grand  Lodge  officers, 
had  the  great  pleasure  of  enjoying  the  first  week  in  May,  1913,  with 
the  Brothers  of  Cook  county. 

During  the  same  week  a  number  of  the  State  Officers  of  the 
Rebekah  State  Assembly  were  also  in  the  city,  and  Wednesday  night 
of  the  week  was  devoted  to  a  joint  reception  of  the  Grand  Lodge 
Officers  by  the  Brothers  and  Sisters  of  Chicago.  The  entertainment 
furnished  each  evening  was  a  success  and  was  appreciated  by  all  con- 
cerned. 

CAN  BE  MADE  MORE  USEFUL. 
My  experience  has  lead  me  to  know  that  this  Association  can  be 
made  more  useful  to  the  Grand  Master  and  the  Grand  Lodge,  by  the 
"Grand  Master  visiting  the  meetings  of  this  Association  more  frequently 
than  once  a  year.  It  can  be  made  a  splendid  channel  through  which 
to  transact  the  business  with  the  Lodges  of  Cook  county,  as  the  fol- 
lowing business  correspondence  will  demonstrate:

Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  Illinois,  Sullivan,  111. 
Dear  Bro.  Jennings — At  the  late  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  at 
Peoria,  Article  II,  Membership,  Section  5,  of  the  Constitution  for  Sub- 
ordinate Lodges,  was  amended,  having  two  "provisos"  added  to  it: 

"Provided,  that  in  cities  with  nine,  or  more,  Lodges,  the  Secre- 
tary shall  immediately  notify  all  Lodges  in  the  same  place,  giving  the 

—7 


JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  \  v    T"''^la >'

applicant's  name  in  full,  day,  year  and  place  of  birth,  occupation  and 
place  of  residence,  and  the  names  of  the  two  Brothers  recommending 
him,"  and  "Provided,  that  in  cities  with  nine,  or  more,  Lodges,  the 
Investigation  Committee  shall  not  report  before  the  second  meeting 
after  the  application  has  been  referred  to  them." 

This  legislation  was  asked  for  by  this  Association,  for  the  benefit 
of  the  Lodges  in  Chicago  only,  as  there  is  no  other  city  in  this  State 
"with  nine,  or  more,  Lodges,"  with  the  object  in  view,  through  pub- 
lication to  prevent  Lodges  from  being  imposed  upon  by  applicants 
from  other  parts  of  the  city,  where,  their  characters  being  known,  they 
could  not  possibly  obtain  membership. 

The  Association  of  I.  O.  O.  F.  Deputies  of  Cook  County,  the  mem- 
bership of  which  is  made  up  of  the  representatives  of  the  Grand 
Master,  whose  duties,  among  others,  are  to  see  that  existing  laws  are 
properly  enforced,  now  ask  your  authorization  for  issuing  a  "Weekly 
I.  O.  O.  F.  Bulletin,"  to  be  mailed  to  each  of  the  one  hundred  Lodges 
in  the  City  of  Chicago,  under  regular  letter  postage,  and  to  contain 
not  only  the  nahies  of  applicants  for  membership,  but  also  rejections, 
suspensions  and  expulsions,  notice  of  which  the  Lodges  are  compelled 
to  send  to  sister  Lodges  under  seal  of  the  Lodge.  Such  weekly 
circular  would  save  the  Lodges  materially  in  printing,  postage,  etc., 
besides  insuring  more  promptness  in  notifications. 

The  Association  will  meet  next  on  Saturday,  December  14,  and  we 
would  appreciate  very  much  hearing  from  you  by  that  time. 
Fraternally  yours  in  F.  L.  &  T.

Sullivan,  111.,  January  10,  1913. 
To  the  Officers  and  Brothers  of  the  Subordinate  Lodges,  I.  O.  O.  F., 

Located  in  the  City  of  Chicago: 

New  legislation  passed  at  the  last  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge, 
I.  O.  O.  F.  of  Illinois,  makes  it  necessary  that  every  Subordinate  Lodge, 
I.  O.  O.  F.,  located  in  the  city  of  Chicago  shall  notify  every  other 
Subordinate  Lodge,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  in  the  city  of  Chicago,  Illinois,  of  the 
name,  date  and  place  of  birth,  occupation,  place  of  residence  of  the 
applicant,  and  the  names  of  the  Brothers  recommending  the  applica- 
tion of  all  candidates  for  membership  by  Initiation  or  otherwise. 

The  Grand  Master  has  authorized  the  Association  of  I.  O.  O.  F. 
Deputies  of  Cook  County,  W.  L.  Helton,  President  and  Sven  Windrow, 
Secretary,  to  publish  and  distribute  weekly  to  every  Lodge  in  Chicago, 
a  bulletin  containing  the  information  required  by  the  new  legislation. 
This  authority  given  to  the  Deputies  Association  by  the  Grand  Master, 
does  not  bar,  exclude  or  prohibit  any  Lodge  or  number  of  Lodges  from 


Tuesday          }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.                                   QQ

complying  with  the  new  legislation  in  some  other  manner  or  form, 
than  that  adopted  by  the  Deputies  Association  and  does  not  compel 
any  Lodge  or  number  of  Lodges  to  adopt  the  method  of  notification 
used  by  the  Deputies  Association. 

The  Grand  Master  does  urge  the  use  of  the  Deputies  Association  in 
giving  the  notice  required  by  the  new  legislation  and  will  treat  the 
notice  given  by  the  Deputies  Association  as  a  compliance  with  the  law. 

The  Grand  Master  would  also  urge  upon  every  Lodge  in  the  City 
of  Chicago  to  contribute  the  usual  sum  per  Capita  to  the  support  of 
the  Odd  Fellows  League  established  and  maintained  in  the  city  of 
Chicago  for  the  use  and  benefit  of  all  Odd  Fellows. 

Yours  fraternally, 

Attest:  JOHN  E.  JENNINGS, 

JNO.  H.  SIKES,  Grand  Master. 

Grand  Secretary. 

The  officers  of  this  Association  have  been,  so  far  as  I  am  aware, 
men  of  ability  and  influence  and  men  who  have  the  interest  of  the 
Order  at  heart.  I  desire  to  thank  them  for  the  many  courtesies  shown' 
to  me  and  my  associate  Grand  Lodge  Officers. 

DEGREE  TEAMS  AT  GRAND  LODGE. 

It  was  provided  by  a  motion,  G.  J.  1912,  page  411,  in  connection 
with  document  145,  that  the  incoming  Grand  Master  appoint  a  com- 
mittee of  three  to  draft  a  suitable  resolution  of  thanks  engrossed  and 
framed  for  the  kind  services  rendered  to  the  Order  by  the  Degree 
Staffs  of  Kent  Lodge  No.  689  and  I  Will  Lodge  No.  141,  during  the 
session  of  this  Grand  Lodge  (1912). 

Brother  Hubbard  appointed  this  committee  and  I  permitted  it  to 
stand,  and  the  committee  has  reported  to  me  that  they  have  fulfilled 
their  mission  and  have  caused  suitable  resolutions  of  thanks  to  be 
engrossed  and  framed  and  presented  them  to  the  two  Lodges  inter- 
ested. The  expense  thereof  will  no  doubt  appear  in  the  Grand  Secre- 
tary's and  Grand  Treasurer's  report. 

Some  suitable  inducement  should  be  held  out  to  the  Lodges 
generally  throughout  the  State  to  encourage  their  Degree  Teams  to 
strive  for  the  honor  of  putting  on  the  Degrees  during  the  Session  of 
the  Grand  Lodge. 

APPOINTMENT   OF    ENTERTAINMENT   COMMITTEE. 
According  to  a  resolution  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  passed 
several  years  ago,  the  following  notification  was  sent  out  to  Brother 
Sikes  shortly  after  the  adjournment  of  the   last  Grand  Lodge.     We 
are  expecting  Springfield  to  do  the  occasion  justice: 


100  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  {  Nov^l 8^101- 

Sullivan,  Illinois. 
To  the  I.  O.  O.  F.  Organizations  of  Springfield,  Illinois: 

Dear  Brothers  and  Sisters — Pursuant  to  a  resolution  passed  by  the 
Grand  Lodge,  I.  O.  O.  F.  of  Illinois  some  years  ago,  I  hereby  appoint 
a  committee  for  the  purpose  of  making  all  necessary  arrangements 
for  the  entertainment  of  the  coming  sessions  of  the  Grand  Lodge, 
Illinois  State  Rebekah  Assembly,  and  Grand  Encampment,  to  be  held 
in  Springfield,  during  the  month  of  November,  1913. 

This  committee  will  consist  of  the  present  Noble  Grand  and  Vice 
Grand  of  each  of  the  three  Subordinate  Lodges,  and  the  Noble  Grand 
and  Vice  Grand  of  the  two  Rebekah  Lodges  and  the  Chief  Patriarch 
and  High  Priest  of  the  Encampment,  all  of  Springfield,  Illinois. 

In  addition  to  these  twelve  Brothers  and  Sisters,  I  name  the 
following  members,  with  power  to  appoint  other  members  as  deemed 
necessary,  viz.:  Judge  J.  Otis  Humphrey,  P.G.M.;  E.  R.  Sayler,  P.G.M. ; 
Jno.  H.  Sikes,  Grand  Secretary,  and  Mrs.  Mary  P.  Miller,  Secretary  of 
the  Illinois  Rebekah  Assembly. 

I  suggest  that  the  entire  committee  convene  for  the  purpose  of 
organization  upon  a  call  to  be  issued  by  Grand  Secretary  Jno.  H. 
Sikes,  the  time  and  place  to  be  indicated  by  him. 

Trusting  this  commjittee  will  be  able  to  entertain  the  coming 
sessions  acceptably  to  the  visitors  who  may  be  in  Springfield  at  that 
time,  I  am,  > 

Fraternally  yours, 

JOHN  E.  JENNINGS, 

Grand  Master. 

GROWTH  OF  THE  REBEKAH  ASSEMBLY. 

The  report  of  Grand  Secretary  Sikes  promulgated  June  2,  1913, 
shows  a  wonderful  increase  in  numbers  of  Rebekah  Lodges  and 
membership. 

The  Rebekahs  of  Illinois  have  done  a  great  work  for  the  good  of 
our  Fraternity.  Their  gentle  and  pleasing  ways  and  their  untiring 
determination  make  them  the  best  solicitors  in  the  world.  They  have 
no  trouble  in  raising  funds  to  finance  any  proposition  they  undertake. 
They  have  done  wonders  for  both  of  our  Homes  and  I  know  that,  at 
present,  they  are  contemplating  valuable  improvements,  especially  at 
the  Orphans'  Home  at  Lincoln,  and  if  this  Grand  Lodge  will  only  give 
them  the  opportunity,  they  will  accomplish  greater  wonders  in  the 
future. 

I  have  not  had  the  pleasure  of  meeting  with  them  at  their  various 
district  meetings  (except  at  Mattoon),  for  which  I  am  very  sorry 
and  desire  to  express  my  regrets  therefor. 


Tuesday,        ]       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  0.  O.  F.                               101 
Nov.     IS.     1013.  \ '_ 

The  Grand  Master  recommends  that  such  legislation  be  enacted 
that  will  empower  the  President  of  the  Rebekah  State  Assembly  of 
Illinois  to  answer  all  questions  pertaining  to  the  law,  customs  and 
usages  of  the  Rebekah  Branch  of  the  Order;  that  she  be  empowered 
to  appoint  the  District  Deputy  Grand  Masters  for  the  Rebekah  Lodges; 
that  she  be  empowered  to  grant  dispensations  for  entertainment  pur- 
poses to  Rebekah  Lodges;  that  she  be  empowered  to  issue  commis- 
sions and  grant  dispensations  for  the  institution  of  new  Rebekah 
Lodges;  and  that  she  be  empowered  to  revoke  or  suspend  the  charter 
of  delinquent  and  offending  Rebekah  Lodges,  preserving,  throughout 
the  above  suggested  legislation,  that  the  person  or  Lodge  feeling 
itself  wronged,  the  right  to  appeal  to  the  Grand  Master  or  to  the 
Grand  Lodge  at  the  next  session  thereof. 

DECISIONS    AND    THE    REVISION    OF    CODE. 

The  Grand  Master,  during  the  year  passed  has  rendered  an  im- 
mense number  of  decisions  touching  both  branches  of  the  Order. 
Most  of  them  have  been  of  small  import,  many  of  them  may  not  have 
been  right. 

At  the  suggestion  of  the  Grand  Sire,  I  reversed  myself  in  one 
decision  and  decided  as  the  Grand  Sire  requested. 

That  decision  was  upon  the  question  of  whether  or  not  a  penalty 
could  attach  should  the  Noble  Grand  permit  the  Rituals  of  the  Sub- 
ordinate Lodge  to  be  taken  from  the  Lodge  room.  The  Grand  Sire 
held  that  there  could  be  a  penalty  inflicted  upon  the  Noble  Grand  for 
permitting  such  action.  I  promptly  held  the  same  way  on  receipt  of 
the  Grand  Sire's  letter. 

There  have  been  no  other  appeals  from  my  decisions.  Nine  out 
of  ten  of  the  decisions  asked  for  from  the  Grand  Master  could  bo 
answered  by  the  person  making  the  inquiry,  or  by  the  Lodge  Deputy, 
by  referring  to  the  Code.  It  is  only  occasionally  that  a  question  in- 
volving the  construction  of  some  uncertain  or  conflicting  laws,  is 
called  for.  Such  questions,  to  be  sure,  should  be  answered,  not  par- 
ticularly by  the  Grand  Master,  but  by  some  one  who  is  learned  and 
especially  trained  in  the  civil  law  of  our  land,  as  well  as  in  the  laws 
of  our  Order. 

Many  sections  of  Merrills'  Code,  1906,  are  inoperative  in  applica- 
tion, for  the  reason  of  the  many  changes  in  our  Grand  Lodge  Consti- 
tution and  By-Laws  and  to  a  person  not  trained  in  the  examination  of 
law  books,  the  present  Code  oftimes  conflicts  with  the  real  law  of  the 
Order,  and  the  present  Code  oftimes  misleads  the  casual  examiner. 

On  account  of  the  above  matters,  I  recommend  that  Merrills'  Code, 
190G,  be  revised  and  brought  down  to  date,  and  especially  those  sec- 


102  rOURNAL   OF   PROCEEDINGS  LT    Tu?|da?k^n 

. ; I  Nov,    18.    mi/;. 

tions  that  are  inoperative,  and  that  in  the  new  revision  those  sections 
of  Merrills'  Code,  1906,  that  have  become  inoperative  and  conflicting 
be  either  omitted  or  especially  noted,  to  avoid  confusion. 

GRAND  LODGE  OFFICERS  ON    HOME   BOARDS. 

The  Grand  Master  would  recommend  such  new  legislation  be 
passed  as  will  change  the  law  in  regard  to  the  Board  of  Directors  of 
the  Orphans'  Home  at  Lincoln,  and  the  Board  of  Trustees  at  Mattoon, 
so  that  the  Grand  Master,  the  Deputy  Grand  Master,  and  the  Grand 
Warden,  shall  each  be  made  at  least  ex-officio  members  of  each  of 
these  boards  and  that  they  be  required  to  meet  at  least  quarterly 
with  each  of  these  boards;  and  that  they  be  empowered  with  the  right 
to  vote  upon  the  selection  of  a  Superintendent  and  Matron  at  each  of 
the  Homes  and  required  to  attend  the  board  meeting  at  which  the 
selection  of  the  Superintendents  and  Matrons  will  be  made. 

LAST   LETTER  TO   LODGES. 

The  following  is  the  last  communication  of  the  Grand  Master  to 
the  Subordinate  Lodges  of  the  State,  promulgated  under  date  of 
October  29,  excepting  the  paragraph  headed  "Endowment  Fund"  and 
"Article  X  of  the  Grand  Lodge  Constituted,"  which  are  omitted  from 
this  place  in  my  report  to  avoid  duplication. 

Sullivan,  111.,  Oct.  29,  1913. 
To  the  Officers  and  Members  of   Subordinate  Lodges,  I.   O.   O.  F.   of 

Illinois: 

Dear  Brothers — There  will  soon  be  another  Grand  Lodge  session 
of  the  Grand  Lodge  I.  O.  O.  F.  of  Illinois.  It  will  be  held  this  year 
in  Springfield,  Illinois,  beginning  Tuesday  evening  at  7:00  o'clock, 
November  18,  1913.  There  will  be  a  Special  Session  of  the  Grand 
Lodge  at  3:30  o'clock  Tuesday  afternoon,  November  18,  1913. 

Representatives  to  the  Grand  Lodge  are  not  entitled  to  mileage 
and  per  diem  if  the  semi-annual  report  and  per  capita  tax  of  their 
Lodges  has  not  been  received  by  the  Grand  Secretary  prior  to  the 
first  of  November. 

I  desire  to  quote  from  Past  Grand  Master  James  Ewing  Davis' 
Journal  of  1911: 

"The  Grand  Lodge  pays  out  approximately  $12,000.00  every  year 
to  hold  its  Grand  Lodge  session.  This  is  not  a  pleasure  trip,  neither 
is  it  an  excursion,  but  it  is  an  assemblage  of  the  Representatives  of 
the  Odd  Fellows  of  the  State  of  Illinois  to  meet  together,  exchange 
ideas  and  execute  plans  which  will  thereby  better  enable  us  to  pro- 
mote the  principles  of  Odd  Fellowship."  And  I  desire  to  add  that  I  do 
not  approve  of  a  Representative  being  elected  for  a  term  of  two  years, 


Nov^lS^lblS  }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  103 

then  after  one  year  resigning,  so  that  some  other  Brother  may  attend 
Grand  Lodge. 

In  order  to  prevent  conflict  in  the  transaction  of  the  business  of 
the  Grand  Lodge,  the  Encampment  and  the  Rebekah  State  Assembly 
and  the  various  entertainments  provided  for  the  Representatives  as 
an  experiment  this  year,  the  Grand  Lodge  officers  have  concluded  to 
start  the  work  and  festivities  on  Monday. 

Monday,  November  17,  H.  M.  Blood,  Chief  of  Examiners  and  In- 
structors, will  hold  a  School  of  Instruction  in  the  forenoon  and  after- 
noon. Public  reception  at  7:30  p.  m.  in  the  First  Christian  church, 
corner  of  Sixth  and  Cook  streets. 

We  are  thus  endeavoring  to  get  the  addresses  of  welcome,  re- 
sponses and  music  that  usually  takes  two  or  three  hours  from  our 
regular  session  Tuesday  night  finished  on  Monday  night.  The  above 
plan  will  also  furnish  entertainment  to  the  Brothers  and  Sisters  who 
arrive  in  Springfield  on  Monday. 

Credentials. 
The  Committee  on  Credentials  will  be  in  session  at  the  Grand 
Secretary's  office  Monday  and  thereafter  until  their  duties  are  ended. 
Each  Representatives  should  personally  see  to  it  that  his  credentials 
are  properly  signed  and  sealed.  Representatives  who  did  not  attend 
last  year  should  bring  the  copy  of  their  credentials  with  them. 

Laid   Over   From   the   Last   Session. 

CHANGE  OF   LODGE   CONSTITUTION. 

We  will  vote  this  year  upon  the  question  of  whether  the  Repre- 
sentatives of  ten  Lodges  may  require  a  vote  of  the  Grand  Lodge  by 
yeas  or  nays  or  whether  a  request  of  fifty  Representatives  shall  be 
required  to  obtain  a  vote  of  the  Grand  Lodge  by  yeas  or  nays.  See

Past  Grand  Masters  who  go  upon  this  committee  upon  the  expiration 
of  their  term,  without  appointment.  See  G.  J.  1912,  page  406,  Docu-

PERMANENT  BUILDING  FOR  GRAND  SECRETARY. 

The  question  of  voting  upon  the  Grand  Lodge  erecting  a 
permanent,  fire  proof  building  for  the  Grand  Secretary  and  location 
thereof,  will  be  voted  upon  at  this  session.     See  G.  J.  1912,  page  407.

BROTHER  VAN  PRAAG'S  AMENDMENT. 

A  proposed  amendment  to  the  Constitution  of  the  Grand  Lodge 
which  provides  that  Grand  Lodge  officers  may  be  nominated  by  any 
Past  Grand  sending  the  name  of  a  brother  and  stating  the  office  for 
which  he  is  nominated,  to  the  Grand  Master  at  any  time  prior  to  the 
first  day  of  May.  The  Grand  Master,  immediately  after  the  first  day 
of  June  ascertains  whether  or  not  the  Brother  nominated  will  accept 
or  decline.  On  the  first  day  of  June  the  Grand  Master  transmits  to 
the  Grand  Secretary  names  of  all  who  have  accepted  nominations  and 
the  Grand  Secretary,  before  July  first,  transmits  to  the  several  Lodges 
the  names  of  the  nominees,  with  suitable  blanks  for  holding  the  elec- 
tion. 

At  the  last  regular  meeting  of  the  Subordinate  Lodge  in  the  month 
of  July,  the  Past  Grands  in  good  standing  of  each  Lodge  shall  be 
entitled  to  vote  by  ballot  for  Grand  Lodge  officers.  Tellers  shall  be 
appointed  and  returns  abstracted  of  the  vote  to  the  Grand  Master  and 
Grand  Secretary,  one  each,  and  the  Grand  Secretary  shall  at  the 
following  sessions  of  the  Grand  Lodge  deliver  the  abstract  of  votes 
received  by  him  to  the  Committee  on  Returns  for  comparison  with  the 
reports  of  the  Grand  Master.  The  Brothers  receiving  the  highest  num- 
ber of  votes  shall  be  declared  duly  elected  for  the  offices  to  which  they 
were  respectfully  nominated. 

This  amendment  contains  some  minor  details.  See  G.  J.  1912. 
pages  414-415-416-417-418. 

CHANGE  IN  NUMBER  OF  STANDING  COMMITTEES. 
The  question  of  reducing  the  number  upon  each  of  the  standing 
committees  and  some  other  regulations  in  reference  to  appointments 


Nor^li^lbia  1       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  105 

of  committees  and  changing  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Committee  on 
Judiciary  and  Appeals  will  also  be  voted  upon.  See  G.  J.  1912,  page 
417. 

Promptness   in    Business. 

I  have  thus  called  your  attention  to  the  unfinished  business  laid 
over  from  last  session,  so  that  you  may  come  to  the  Grand  Lodge 
prepared  to  vote  upon  these  questions  without  any  lengthly  argu- 
ments. 

Dedication   of  New  Building. 

I  sincerely  request  each  Representative,  committeeman  and  Grand 
Lodge  officer  to  co-operate  with  me  in  expediting  the  business  of  the 
coming  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge.  We  have  a  new  building  at  Lin- 
coln to  dedicate  and  we  desire  to  hold  this  ceremony  on  Thursday 
afternoon.  To  do  this  we  must  finish  our  business  one-half  day  sooner 
than  we  have  been  doing  heretofore.  Let  us  all  lend  our  efforts  in  this 
direction. 

Renew  Activities. 
The  hottest  and  driest  year  for  many  years  has  about  ended.  I 
did  not  expect  the  Subordinate  Lodges  to  be  active  during  the  hot,  dry 
summer,  but  I  was  disappointed.  Many  of  them  went  right  on  with 
their  work,  regardless  of  the  weather.  Now,  since  the  cooler  season 
has  arrived,  I  desire  to  urge  every  Subordinate  Lodge  in  the  State  to 
increase  their  membership  at  least  ten  members  between  now  and  the 
first  of  January,  so  that  the  total  showing  for  the  twelve  months  will 
be»  up  to,  or  above  the  average  for  Illinois. 

I  desire  to  thank  each  and  every  Brother  for  the  many  kindnesses 
shown  to  me  during  the  year. 

Yours  fraternaly, 
Attest:  JOHN  E.  JENNINGS,

PAST  GRAND  MASTER  M.  P.  BERRY'S  GENEROSITY. 

I  have  recently  received  official  notification  from  the  Board  of 
Directors  of  the  Odd  Fellows'  Orphans'  Home  of  a  very  pleasing  trans- 
action, and  quote  the  action  of  the  Board  of  Directors  in  explanation 
thereof  . 

Brother  James  Henry  Harris  was  instructed  to  draft  a  suitable 
resolution  relative  to  the  generous  and  useful  gift  of  $500.00  for  the 
Berry  Memorial  Library  by  Past  Grand  Master  M.  P.  Berry;  and 
Brother  J.  W.  Birney  is  to  have  the  resolution  engrossed,  then  it  is 
to  be  placed  with  the:  picture  of  the  new  cottage,  both  picture  and 
resolution  to  be  framed  and  a  copy  spread  on  the  minutes  of  this 
Board. 

Resolution  presented  by  Brother  James  Henry  Harris 
"Hon.  M.  P.  Berry,  P.G.M.,  Carthage,  111. 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother: — The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Odd  Fel- 
lows' Orphans'  Home  appreciate  with  the  entire  Order  that  whatever 
adds  to  the  beauty  and  excellence  of  the  Orphans'  Home,  correspond- 
ingly increases  the  Fraternal  reputation  of  the  Order  that  maintains  it. 

It  is  with  this  thought  in  view,  that  the  Board  of  Directors,  as  rep- 
resentatives of  the  Order,,  in  this  connection,  desires'  to  express  to 
you  its  appreciation  for  your  magnificent  donation  of  a  Library,  which 
not  only  will  be  a  source  of  great  usefulness,  but  bespeaks  the  gener- 
ous character  of  the  donor. 

In  directing  that  these  words  be  placed  upon  record  of  the  Board 
of  Directors  and  that  the  same  be  engrossed,  framed  and  presented  to 
you,  we  realize  that  we  inadequately  express  the  sincerity  of  our 
feelings. 

Yours   very   fraternally,

In  view  of  the  foregoing,  it  occurs  to  the  Grand  Master  that  a

mind  and  makes  such  a  splendid  and  useful  contribution  to  the  Odd 
Fellows,  Orphans'  Home  of  Illinois  should  receive  a  vote  of  thanks

THIRD   REPORT,  BY  BROTHER  M.  P.   BERRY,  OF  NO.  412. 
To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  O.  F.: 

Your  Committee  on  Finance  would  respectfully  report  as  follows: 

On  Friday,  October  17th,  1913,  your  committee  visited  our  Orphans' 
Home  at  Lincoln.  We  carefully  examined  the  books  and  accounts,  and 
checked  up  all  the  receipts  and  expenditures  of  the  Homes  during  the 
past  year.  We  also  went  through  and  examined  carefully  the  new 
building  for  girls,  which  has  just  been  completed,  and  spent  an  hour 
or  two  in  going  over  the  farm  and  viewing  the  stock  and  crops. 

We  were  highly  pleased  with  the  general  appearance  of  our  new 
building.  It  hasi  been  supplied  with  every  comfort  and  convenience 
that  could  be  desired,  and,  standing  among  the  other  buildings,  adds  a 
dignity  to  them  all. 

We  met  the  children  in  the  Chapel  and  were  pleased  with  their 
appearance  and  their  exercises.  We  believe  we  have  a  good  corps  of 
teachers  and  attendants,  and  that  our  children  are  receiving  the  best 
of  care  and  instruction,  as  evidenced  by  the  love  they  have  for  their 
superintendent  and  his  wife,  and  for  all  their  teachers  and  attendants. 
In  looking  into  their  happy  and  contented  faces  no  feeling  but  pleasure 
and  satisfaction  can  find  a  place  in  the  human  heart,  and  your  commit- 
tee departed,  carrying  only  these  feelings  with  them. 

We  found  the  receipts  and  disbursements  of  the  Home  for  the 
past  year  to  be  as  follows:

On  the  day  of  our  visit  there  were  175  children  in  the  Home; 
93  boys  and  82  girls.  115  of  these  are  half  orphans  and  60  full  orphans. 
From  the  above  figures,  every  member  of  our  Order  can  plainly  see 
to  what  size  our  Home  has  already  grown.  During  the  past  year 
$40,699.94  was  expended  in  its  support.  The  new  building  is  now  ready 
to  be  occupied,  and  already  the  applications  of  50  more  children  for 
admission  have  been  approved.  All  of  them  are  half  orphans.  This 
will  swell  the  number  of  children  under  our  care  to  225;  165  of  which 
will  be  half  orphans.  This  is  in  accordance  with  the  expressed  desire 
of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  portrays  the  warm  heart  of  every  true  Odd 
Fellow. 

The  coming  year  we  will  have  under  our  care  225  children.  The 
past  record  of  our  Home  proves  that  if  only  full  orphans  were  admit- 
ted, we  would  reach  our  linit  at  some  number  less  than  100  children, 


NovTUl|dai913  !       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  6.  F.  1  T7 

but  if  all  half  orphans  are  to  be  admitted  on  the  same  terms  as  full 
orphans  no  one  can  estimate  when  we  will  reach  our  limit. 

As  your  Finance  Committee  carefully  surveys  the  situation,  we 
feel  it  our  duty  to  call  the  attention  of  every  member  of  this  Grand 
Lodge  to  what  we  will  be  called  upon  to  meet  in  the  future,  in  order 
that  they  may  study  it  thoroughly  and  consider  it  well.  Every  con- 
servative business  man  will  see  at  a  glance  that  good,  careful  manage- 
ment and  the  application  of  sound  business  principles  will  be  abso- 
lutely necessary  in  the  future,  to  maintain  our  Orphans'  Home,  as  the 
cost  of  its  maintenance  will  increase  each  year. 

Your  committee  is  firmly  of  the  opinion,  that  several  children 
now  in  our  Orphans'  Home  are  very  largely  supported  and  cared  for 
by  our  Order  that  should  be  cared  for  by  their  surviving  parent.  It 
should  not  be  the  policy  of  our  Order  to  relieve  a  surviving  parent 
from  the  duty  and  responsibility  that  devolves  upon  every  parent,  to 
support  their  own  children  to  the  extent  of  their  ability.  At  present 
our  Order  is  pursuing  that  policy  to  some  extent,  and,  as  it  so  mate- 
rially affects  the  finances  of  our  Order,  your  Finance  Committee  feels 
it  is  within  their  province,  and  their  duty,  to  call  your  attention  to  it 
in  this  manner. 

Your  committee  regrets  to  see  that  the  Directors  of  the  Orphans' 
Home  have  again  overdrawn  their  Building  fund  nearly  $3,000.00.  We 
have  in  the  past  strongly  protested  against  this>  practice  and  feel  it 
our  duty  to  do  so  again.  We  believe  it  a  dangerous  practice  and  one 
that  ought  to  be  discontinued. 

All  of  which  we  respectfully  submit  for  your  consideration.

To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  O.  F.: 

Your  Committee  on  Finance  would  respectfully  report  as  follows: 
On  Thursday,  November  6,  1913,  your  committee  met  at  the  office 
of  the  Grand  Secretary  for  the  purpose  of  examining  his  books',  check- 
ing his  accounts  and  etc.,  and  taking  an  inventory  of  the  supplies  on 
hand.  We  found  the  business  of  his  office  in  excellent  condition,  his 
books  showing  very  clearly  all  receipts  and  disbursements,  from  what 
source  received  and  for  what  purpose  paid  out.  We  found  the  receipts 
of  his  office  for  the  six  months  ending  October  31,  as  follows:

Secretary  to  be  more  prompt  in  issuing  these  reports.  We  would  also 
call  attention  and  suggest  to  the  Secretary  that  the  mileage  and 
per  diem  of  your  representative  be  held  up  for  the  Lodges  which  have 
failed  to  pay  the  Orphans'  Home  building  tax,  until  the  same  was 
paid,  as  all  Lodges  should  pay  this  assessment  and  be  treated  alike.

FIFTH    REPORT,  BY  WILLIS   MELVILLE,  OF  693. 
To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  O.  F.: 

Your  Committee  on  Finance  would  respectfully  report  as  follows: 

We  made  our  annual  visit  to  the  Old  Folks'  Home  at  Mattoon, 
Illinois,  on  Saturday,  October  18th,  1913,  for  the  purpose  of  auditing 
the  accounts  and  inspecting  the  Home. 

*  We  found  Brother  and  Sister  North  in  charge  of  the  Institution. 
Brother  North  is  a  practical  farmer  and  a  substantial  business  man, 
and  his  wife  is  an  ideal  person  for  the  position  she  fills,  and  the 
Order  owes  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  Brother  North  and  his  wife  for  the 
personal  sacrifices  they  are  making  in  taking  charge  of  the  Home. 

In  our  inspection  of  the  Home  we  find  that  the  farm  has  been 
kept  up  in  splendid  condition,  and  that  the  buildings  are  in  good 
repair,  with  the  exception  of  a  range  in  the  kitchen,  which  should  be 
replaced  by  a  new  one,  and  a  new  sidewalk  should  be  built  on  the 
rear  of  the  building.  These  much  needed  additions  would  cost  little 
money.  Otherwise  the  farm  and  buildings  are  kept  in  excellent 
order,  and  as  well  as  any  farmer  could  keep  the  premises  if  they  were 
his  own. 

The  live  stock  is  in  a  healthy  condition,  and  the  results  from  the 
farm  are  more  than  satisfactory. 

Your  Committee  desire  to  commend  the  Trustees  and  the  present 
Superintendent  for  the  businesslike  manner  in  which  the  affairs  of 
the  Home  are  being  conducted. 

The  membership  as  enrolled  on  October  1st  was  141.  of  which 
there  were  29  Sisters  and  112  Brothers.  There  were  admitted  during 
the  year,  33,  withdrawn,  6,  and  lost  by  death,  15.    At  last  report  there

CONCLUSION. 

During  the  year  passed  I  have  been  made  under  obligations  to 
each  and  every  Grand  Lodge  Officer  with  particular  distinction,  by 
numerous  actions  upon  the  part  of  each,  of  care,  kindness  and 
assistance.  A  more  loyal,  true  hearted  lot  of  men  I  have  never  met. 
The  recollections  of  my  association  with  them  will  be  the  most  pleas- 
ant of  my  life.  They  are  gentlemen,  every  one.  They  are  gentlemen 
in  the  truest  sense  of  the  word. 

The  foregoing  lines  apply  to  my  Lodge  and  Special  Deputies  and 
Committeemen  also.  While  I  have  not  been  so  closely  in  touch  with 
them  as  I  have  been  with  the  other  Grand  Officers,  there  has  not  been 


124  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  { Nov.' '  18^1913. 

a  single  unpleasantness  between  us,  and  I  thank  each  and  every  one 
of  you  to  the  very  depths  of  my  heart. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  I  had  in  mind  several  self-imposed 
tasks  that  I  intended  to  accomplish  during  my  term  and  now,  at  its 
conclusion,  I  find  that,  on  account  of  not  being  blessed  with  robust 
health  during  the  past  twelve  months,  many  of  these  self-imposed 
tasks  have  not  been  accomplished. 

The  welfare  of  the  Order  has  been  uppermost  in  my  mind  every 
minute  of  the  past  year.  I  very  respectfully  beg  pardon  and  apologize 
for  every  mistake  I  have  made  and  I  sincerely  thank  every  member 
of  the  Order,  both  in  the  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Branches,  for  the 
many,  many  favors  I  have  received. 

May  the  same  degree  of  blessings  and  success  come  to  our  Order 
in  the  future  that  it  has  enjoyed  in  the  past. 
Yours  fraternally,

did  not,  however,  look  upon  my  appointment  as  Chief  of  Examiners 
and  Instructors  as  ornamental,  but  have  tried  to  take  the  appointmem 
seriously  and  have  endeavored ,  to  perform  as 'much  woi*k  as  possible 
during  the  term,  and  the  time  has  now  arrived  when  I  must  make  my 
report  to  you.  I  do  riot  wish  to  burden  you  with  long  and  drawn  out 
details  but  shall  confine  myself  to  the  more  important  facts. 

There  has  been  a  good  deal  of  work  done  in  the  Lodges  throughout 
the  State  to  improve  the  character  of  our  Degree  work  and  there  is  a 
great  deal  more  to  be  done.  I  have  endeavored  to  impress  upon  the 
membership  the  necessity  of  high  class,  intelligent  Degree  work  if 
our  Order  is  to  continue  to  prosper  and  to  hold  a  high  position  in  the 
estimation  of  thinking  people.  In  most  cases  it  has  been  sufficient  to 
call  just  attention  to  this  important  work.  The  Staff  Captains  and 
Degree  Staffs  have  made  marked  improvement  over  the  work  formerly 
done. 

SCHOOLS. 

Early  in  the  beginning  of  this  term  you  arranged  for  a  number  of 
schools,  at  which  were  present  the  Grand  Master,  Deputy  Grand  Master, 
Grand  Warden,  Grand  Secretary  and  Assistant  Chief  of  Examiners  and 
Instructors,  as  well  as  myself,  and  these  Schools  were  held  as  follows: 

Springfield.  January  27th,  28th  and  29th. 

Vandalia,  February  3d.  4th  and  5th. 

Bloomington,   February  24th,   25th  and  26th.

Olney,  March  24th.  25th  and   26th.

126  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  {  Nov^ll^lbl.S 

As  a  general  thing  these  meetings  were  well  attended  and  groat 
interest  was  shown  in  the  work.  They  covered  the  Initiatory,  First. 
Second  and  Third  Degrees,  taken  up  in  detail,  followed  by  Staff  work. 
In  distributing  these  Schools  throughout  the  State  attention  was 
given  to  securing  locations  where  accommodations  were  ample  and 
railroad  and  interurban  facilities  would  bring  Representatives  from  the 
greatest  number  of  Lodges.  I  believe  that  great  good  has  come  from 
these  Schools  because  it  has  given  an  opportunity  for  study  in  detail 
of  the  Ritualistic  charges.  Deputy  Grand  Master,  Warren  C.  Darnall, 
who  was  formerly  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors,  attended  these 
Schools  and  participated  in  the  work,  which  I  assure  you  was  highly 
appreciated,  not  only  by  myself,  but  by  every  one  present.  In  dividing 
the  work  with  Brother  Darnall  it  made  it  easier  for  me  and  added 
variety  to  the  Schools.  Brother  Darnall's  ability  is  unquestionable.  He 
is  a  deep  student  and  has  given  much  time  to  the  work,  and  I  want 
to  assure  you  and  Brother  Darnall  that  I  appreciate  the  great  assist- 
ance he  has  given  me.

In  the  middle  of  the  term  I  wrote  to  each  one  of  the  Directors  to 
report  to  me  the  work  they  had  done  and  give  me  an  idea  of  what  they 
expected  to  accomplish  before  the  end  of  the  term.  Answers  were  re- 
ceived and  in  most  cases  they  reported  activity  in  their  respective 
Districts,  and,  notwithstanding  that  there  is  no  provision  in  our  law 
for  expenses,  many  of  these  Directors  have  spent  considerable  sums  of 
their  own  money  in  furthering  the  interests  of  the  Order.  I  believe 
they  deserve  great  credit  for  the  work  they  have  done  purely  for  the 
love  of  the  Order.  Under  another  heading  will  be  found  extracts  from 
the  reports  received  to  date  from  Directors,  space  preventing  the  print- 
ing of  these  in  full.

Where  no  county  is  mentioned  it  means  that  there  is  no  Official 
Examiner  and  Instructor  in  that  county.  I  take  this  method  of  calling 
attention  to  the  fact  so  that  the  Lodges  and  membership  therein  will 
make  an  effort  to  qualify  at  least  one  member  at  the  earliest  possible 
date. 

COOK   COUNTY. 

On  account  of  the  large  number  of  Lodges  in  Cook  county  there 
have  been  many  calls  on  ine,  and  at  nearly  all  of  these  meetings  I  have 
tried  to  confine  my  work  to  the  Ritual  as  much  as  possible.  I  believe 
a  good  deal  of  good  has  been  done  by  arranging  lectures  on  the  dif- 
ferent degrees  and  inviting  several  Lodges  to  participate  in  a  convenient 
hall. 

Some  of  the  meetings  have  been  more  pretentious  than  others,  for 
instance:  A  series  of  Schools  was  arranged  by  Chicago  Lodge  No.  55, 
wherein  one  degree  was  taken  up  each  night,  beginning  Wednesday, 
April  16th,  and  continuing  one  each  month  for  four  months.  The 
work  in  Chicago,  I  believe,  is  fairly  well  in  hand  and  the  Lodges  are 
striving  to  do  a  high  grade  of  Degree  work.  We  have  in  this  city  a 
number  of  German  Lodges  and  these  Lodges  are  under  the  directorship 
of  Bro.  F.  W.  Chas.  Eberhard.  Brother  Eberhard  is  a  splendid  Degree 
Captain,  a  member  of  New  Chicago  Lodge  No.  506,  and  I  took  advantage 
of  his  Staff  to  give  some  exhibition  First  Degrees  in  German  in 
Adelphi  Lodge  No.  8,  Dec.  29th.  and  Cook  County  Lodge,  Feb.  26th. 
This  was  a  revelation  to  the  English  speaking  Brethren  and  created 
wide  spreading  interest,  especially  in  the  King. 

SCHOOL  AT  ST.  LOUIS. 

Through  Grand  Secretary  John  H.  Sikes,  arrangements  were  made 
by  the  Grand  Secretary  of  Missouri  to  hold  a  school  in  the  city  of  St. 
Louis  on  June  20th  and  21st.  Together  with  Deputy  Grand  Master 
Warren  C.  Darnall,  I  went  to  St.  Louis  and  we  were  warmly  received 
by  our  Brothers  "across  the  river."     The  meeting  was  a  complete  sue

cess  and  our  work  fully  appreciated.  All  expenses  of  this  visit  were 
taken  care  of  by  the  Grand  Officers  of  that  jurisdiction.  There  were 
representatives  at  that  meeting  who  traveled  more  than  three  hundred 
miles  to  attend,  which  goes  to  show  the  interest  the  School  created. 

DIRECTORS  OF  WORK. 

The  following  extracts  are  taken  from  reports  of  Directors  of  Work 
so  far  received  to  date: 

Dr.  C.  A.  Robbins,  District  No.  2 — 

Brother  Robbins  reports  a  large  amount  of  work  accomplished  in 
his  District.  He  has  personally  qualified  six  Official  Instructors  besides 
instructing  a  large  number  who  will  eventually  be  entitled  to  com- 
missions. He  has  communicated  with  every  Lodge  in  his  District  and 
urged  them  to  form  County  Associations  for  the  purpose  of  holding 
county  meetings  at  least  once  a  year.  He  has  spent  seven  whole  days 
and  twenty-five  nights  in  holding  these  meetings  and  expended  more 
than  fifty  dollars  ($50.00)  in  actual  cash  out  of  his  pocket  in  traveling 
expenses.  At  the  date  cf  his  report,  Oct.  9th,  he  still  had  twelve  more 
meetings  to  hold  before  the  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge.  I  want  to 
congratulate  Brother  Robbins  on  his  untiring  efforts  in  the  interests  of 
Odd  Fellowship  in  his  District. 

Feed  W.  Beckstrom,  District  No.  5 — 

Brother  Beckstrom  reports  that  the  Lodges  in  his  District  are  in 
splendid  condition  and  says,  "as  you  are  no  doubt  aware  that  two  of 
our  Moline  Lodges  sent  their  Staffs  to  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  and 
brought  home  the  first  prize  in  the  First  Degree  and  the  second  prizo 
in  the  Initiatory  Degree,  it  will  not  be  necessary  for  me  to  report 
further  as  to  the  work  done  at  home  last  year." 

He  further  reports  that  many  of  the  Lodges  are  doing  degree 
work  every  night  and  that  they  are  organizing  a  new  lodge  at  Silvis 
and  expect  to  have  it  open  in  the  very  near  future. 

W.  C.  Weaver,  District  No.18— 

Brother  Weaver  reports  some  activity  in  his  District.    He  says  that 
while  he  personally  has  been  able  to  do  but  little  work,  nevertheless 
the  Lodges  seem  to  be  more  or  less  active.     Prospects  good. 
Addison  Richey,  District  No.  22 — 

Brother  Richey  has  written  all  Lodges  in  his  District  and  expects 
before  the  end  of  the  term  to  be  able  to  visit  each  one.  He  says  that 
nearly  all  of  the  Lodges  in  his  District  have  fairly  good  degree  staffs 
and  gives  the  very  encouraging  information  that  the  work  is  done 
without  the  use  of  rituals. 


Nov^li^lGlS  I       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  1 33 

F.   E.   McDougall,   District   No.   26— 

Brother  McDougall  lives  in  Jacksonville  and  was  not  appointed  a 
Director  until  about  the  first  of  July.  Since  then  he  has  taken  hold 
of  the  work  with  his  usual  vim  and  has  offered  the  Lodges  in  his 
District  the  benefit  of  mini's  Staff,  of  which  he  is  the  captain.  Brother 
McDougall  is  a  firm  believer  in  high  class  staff  work  and  I  have  no 
doubt  that  he  will  make  his  Directorship  felt  in  his  District. 

C.  G.  Barnwell,  District  No.  30— 

Brother  Barnwell  has  evidently  been  busy  in  his  District.  I  quote 
the  following  from  his  letter:  "Waggoner  Lodge  was  organized  last 
February  and  the  class  of  work  they  are  doing  is  commendable.  They 
came  to  Litchfield  October  14th,  to  put  on  the  Initiatory,  First  and 
Second  Degrees  to  be  watched  by  brothers  of  older  Lodges  in  this 
vicinity,  with  more  than  ordinary  interest."  This  speaks  well  for  a 
young  Lodge. 

Arthur  L.  Mason,  District  No.  31 — 

Brother  Mason  reports  a  good  deal  of  activity  on  his  part  in  hiB 
District  during  last  term.  He  has  made  more  than  twenty-five  visits 
to  various  Lodges  and  instructed  them  in  the  Unwritten  Work  and 
Ritualistic  Work.  He  reports  the  Lodges  in  very  good  condition  in 
most  cases.  In  many  of  these  Lodges  he  has  spent  a  week  in  a  place. 
He  is  giving  special  attention  to  Lodges  that  are  in  need  of  assistance 
and  expects  to  make  a  report  showing  improvements  in  the  near 
future. 

W.  W.  Yeck,  District  No.   34— 

Brother  Yeck  reports  that  most  of  the  Lodges  in  his  District  have 
good  Staffs  and  are  doing  good  work,  and,  while  they  have  been  more 
or  less  quiet  during  the  warm  weather,  prospects  are  good  for  the 
immediate  future.  He  has  given  instructions  on  numerous  occasions 
and  held  Schools  of  Instruction  in  Staff  Work. 

J.  A.  Giberson,  District  No.  35 — 

Brother  Giberson  reports  that  on  account  of  his  being  tied  up  in 
business,  being  Secretary  and  Treasurer  of  the  State  Association  of 
Fire  Insurance  Agents  and  national  organizer  for  the  National  Associa- 
tion of  Fire  Insurance  Agents,  he  has  been  unable  to  give  very  much 
personal  attention  to  this  work  and  desires  that  some  other  Brother  in 
his  District  be  appointed  as  Director  of  work  for  the  coming  year. 

A.  W.  Burbank,  District  No.  40 — 

Brother  Burbank  has  been  very  busy  in  his  District.  Held  several 
Schools  of  Instruction  in  a  number  of  Lodges  and  inspected  the  work 
done  by  numerous  staffs.  He  reports  that  the  Lodges  seem  to  be 
doing  well  and  enthusiasm  running  high.

F.   W.   Ciias.   Eberhard,   District  No.   43    (German)  — 

On  account  of  these  Lodges  being  distinctive,  inasmuch  as  they 
work  in  German,  and  to  give  the  Brethren  an  idea  of  the  German 
Lodges  in  Cook  county,  I  forward  his  report  in  full,  which  I  believe 
will   be   of   interest. 

"As  requested  I  give  you  the  following  report  of  District  No.  43. 

"New  Chicago  No.  506 — Has  a  good  staff  consisting  of  chief 
captain  and  an  assistant  captain  of  each  degree  and  sixty-four  members

First  Degree  at  Adelphi  Lodge  December  29th,  1912;  and  Cook  County

"Olympia  Lodge  No.  477 — Is  waking  up  from  a  long  sleep,  has  a 
good  staff,  doing  good  work. 

"Robert  Blum  Lodge  No.  58 — Trying  hard  to  get  a  staff  but  it 
seems  they  have  not  enough  young  members  or  don't  let  them  come 
up. 

"Hutten  Lodge  No.  398 — Not  doing  much. 

"On  the  whole,  District  No.  43,  is  in  a  very  promising  condition. 
Lily  of  the  West  No.  407  bought  a  church  and  rebuilt  same  for  a 
temple,  which  affords  them  facilities  for  good  floor  work.  New  Chicago 
ma*de  an  attempt  to  write  the  North  Side  Lodges  concerning  the  build- 
ing of  a  temple  for  Odd  Fellows  only,  so  it  could  be  arranged  especially 
for  Odd  Fellow  degree  work,  but  did  not  succeed  as  yet.  The  commit- 
tee is  standing  and  the  matter  will  be  taken  up  again. 

"Koerner  is  planning  to  build  their  own  hall." 

T.   B.    Blair,   District   No.   45— 

Brother  Blair  is  one  of  the  oldest  staff  captains  in  the  state  and  a 
member  of  Congress  Lodge  No.  362.  Brother  Blair  has  been  active  in 
bis  District;   visited  many  Lodges  and  encouraged  many  of  the  staffs

in  their  work.  He  reports  the  Lodges  making  good  progress  and 
much  activity  in  the  way  of  candidates,  etc.  In  some  of  the  Lodges 
where  help  was  needed  more  than  others,  he  has  given  them  special 
attention,  with  good  results. 

Victor  E.  Bkevitz,  District  No.  47 — 

Brother  Brevitz  isi  the  staff  captain  of  John  E.  Ericsson  Lodge  No. 
361,  and  he  has  given  a  good  deal  of  time  to  work  in  his  District.  He 
has  qualified  eleven  Brothers  in  the  unwritten  work,  and  recom- 
mended commissions.  Has  visited  nearly  all*  of  the  Lodges  in  his 
District,  and  reports  them  in  good  condition.  On  account  of  the  nature 
of  his  business  calling  him  out  of  town  a  good  deal,  he  says,  he  has 
been  severely  handicapped,  but  he  has,  nevertheless,  found  time  to 
accomplish  much  good  in  his  District. 

i.  C.  ABNEY.   ASS'T.  CHIEF  OF   EXAMINERS  AND   INSTRUCTORS. 

Following  is  the  report  of  Brother  I.  C.  Abney,  Assistant  Chief  of 
Examiners  and  Instructors,  of  Creal  Springs.  This  report  I  forward  to 
you  in  full  which  I  believe  will  be  of  interest: 

I.      C.      ABNEY— ASSISTANT      CHIEF      OF      EXAMINERS      AND 
INSTRUCTORS,   CREAL   SPRINGS,  ILL. 

To  the  Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Sullivan,  Illinois. 

Dear  Grand  Master  Jennings: — Obedient  to  your  request,  and  fol- 
lowing the  practice  of  my  honorable  and  worthy  predecessors,'  I  have 
the  honor  of  submitting  for  your  consideration  my  first  annual  report, 
as  Assistant  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors  of  the  I.  O.  0.  F..  in 
the  jurisdiction  of  the  (State  of  Illinois  for  1912  and  1913. 

It  is  with  a  sincere  feeling  of  appreciation  and  gratitude  for  the 
fraternal  assistance  which  has  been  rendered  me  by  yourself  and  all  of 
the  officers  of  the  Grand  Lodge  with  whom  I  have  been  associated  in 
my  official  duties  during  the  year. 

In  submitting  this  report,  it  brings  to  my  mind,  at  the  beginning 
of  the  year,  the  great  and  wise  counsel  of  those  words  and  encourage- 
ment of  yourself  and  the  other  Grand  Officers,  whose  experience  and 
knowledge  were  imparted  to  me,  and  brought  me  to  see  the  grandeur 
of  those  beautiful  lessons  taught  in  our  beloved  order. 

It  is  not  my  intention  to  offer  any  suggestions  whatever,  in  my 
report,  knowing  full  well  that  your  report,  together  with  the  report 
of  our  worthy  and  honorable  Chief  of  Examiners  and  Instructors,  (H. 
M.  Blood),  will  embody  everything  relating  to  our  beloved  Order. 

November  25,  I  put  the  Initiatory  degree  on  for  New  Burnside 
Lodge  No.  625'.

I  have  examined  and  recommended  certificates  to  twenty-six 
Brothers  during  the  year,  and  have  instructed  a  great  many  Brothers 
in  the  degrees  in  the  unwritten  work. 

I  will  not  include  in  my  report  the  work  of  your  relief  committee 
to  the  flood  sufferers,  as  P.G.M.  Henry  A.  Stone,  Chairman,  and  Brother

I  wish  to  extend  my  gratitude  to  Brothers  Stone  and  Cormick  for 
their  kindness  and  courtesy  to  me  during  this  work. 

I  have  given  my  time  to  the  details  of  my  own  department,  but 
very  encouraging  activity  is  reported  in  all  the  other  departments  of 
the  order,  all  which  speaks  of  the  great  success  of  your  administration, 
of  which  I  beg  to  extend  my  hearty  congratulations.

MONMOUTH    SCHOOL   AND    SPECIAL   SESSION    OF    THE    GRAND 

LODGE. 

This  School  was  held  under  the  auspices  of  Warren  Lodge  No.  160 
and  Monmouth  Lodge  No.  577.     It  was  a  fine  success. 

Deputy  Grand  Master  Darnall,  Grand  Warden  Pease,  Grand  Secre" 
tary  Sikes  and  myself  were  the  Grand  Lodge  Officers  in  attendance. 

The  school  opened  Tuesday  evening,  October  21.  The  degree  staff 
of  Galesburg  Lodge  No.  478  conferred  the  Initiatory  Degree  in  good 
shape. 

Past  Grand  Masters  Chas.  S.  Harris,  Geo.  C.  Rankin  and  Martin 
W.  Schaefer  attended  this  School. 

The  first  degree  was  taken  up  and  finished  Wednesday  morning. 
Wednesday  afternoon  was  given  to  the  study  of  the  second  and  third 
degrees.  At  4  o'clock  p.  m.,  a  special  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  con- 
vened and  fifty-nine  Past  Grands  received  the  Grand  Lodge  and  Past 
Grand  degrees. 

I  believe  I  am  safe  in  saying  that  this  was  the  most  successful 
School,  taking  it  all  around,  that  we  have  held  this  year.  The  attend- 
ance was  splendid  both  day  and  evenings. 

CONCLUSION. 

During  the  past  year  I  have  attended  more  than  one  hundred 
meetings  of  one  kind  and  another,  which  includes  everything  from  lay- 
ing a  cornerstone  for  a  Lodge  hall  to  one  session  Schools.  I  have  tried 
to  go  wherever  and  whenever  called,  making  myself  useful  according 
to  my  ability.

My  relations  with  the  Brethren  and  the  Grand  Officers  have  been 
most  cordial.  Nothing  has  occurred  to  mar  the  perfect  harmony  of 
action.  I  have  enjoyed  every  minute  of  the  time  spent  in  the  work,  and 
only  regret  that  I  have  not  been  so  situated  as  to  give  even  more  time 
to  the  needs  of  the  Order.  l 

My  correspondence  with  the  lodges  and  members  during  the  year 
has  been  considerable,  and  I  have  tried  to  be  prompt  in  answering 
letters  and  giving  such  information  as  properly  comes  under  the 
heading  of  this  department. 

Trusting  that  the  work  under  way  will  be  carried  on  to  a  final 
and  successful  conclusion,  and  with  best  wishes  for  our  Order  during 
the  coming  year.  I  have  the  honor  to  remain,

INTRODUCTION 

To  Hon.  John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master  of  I.  O.  O.  F.  of  Illinois: 

Dear  Sir  and  Brother:  We  take  pleasure  in  submitting  to  you 
herewith,  and  through  you  to  the  Grand  Lodge,  the  twenty-first  annual 
report  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  I.  O.  O.  F.  Orphans'  Home,  at 
Lincoln,  Illinois,  for  the  year  ending  September  30,  1913. 

A  careful  expenditure  of  the  liberal  appropriation  made  by  the 
Grand  Lodge  at  the  1911  session  to  increase  the  capacity  of  the  Home 
has  been  exercised  by  the  Board  of  Directors. 

Careful  and  thorough  investigations  of  other  similar  Homes  by 
the  Board  as  to  the  kind  of  a  dormitory  building  to  construct  caused 
us  to  determine  upon  a  fire-proof  building,  64x97  feet,  three  stories 
high,  with  a  large  porch  acrss  the  front  of  the  entire  width  of  the 
building,  a  basement  under  the  entire  building  with  concrete  floors  for 
use  as  a  play  room,  the  first  and  second  floors  to  be  used  for  living 
rooms,  each  having  four  sleeping  rooms  (corner)  with  nine  single 
beds  in  each  room,  or  seventy-two  beds  in  all,  besides  a  room  on 
each  floor  for  use  of  the  governess,  the  adjoining  rooms  containing 
individual  lockers  for  each  resident,  two  linen  rooms  for  the  bedding, 
two  toilet  rooms  with  ample  bath  and  toilet  conveniences,  and  a  day 
or  reading  room  with  a  fire  place  and  book  case,  a  wide  corridor  the 
full  length  of  the  building,  and  a  front  -and  side  entrance.  The  third 
floor  has  one  large  room  for  hospital  use,  a  much  needed  room  for 
the  proper  care  of  the  sick  and  where  isolation  can  be  had,  if  need  be, 
a  wide  corridor,  a  room  for  the  use  of  a  nurse,  linen  room  for  bedding 
and  a  toilet  room  with  all  of  the  modern  conveniences,  electric  light 
wires  in  steel  conduits,  piped  for  gas.  We  are  gratified  to  report, 
although  delayed  in  completing  more  than  we  had  anticipated,  this 
building  is  now  complete  and  ready  for  dedication,  and  we  hope  you 
will  ask  the  Grand  Lodge  in  a  body  to  take  part  in  the  dedicatory 
services  during  the  session  of  1913,  thereby  enabling  the  Representa- 
tives to  personally  see  and  examine  and  to  be  able  to  report  to  their 
several  Lodges  what  we  sincerely  believe  to  be  another  splendid  monu 
ment  to  the  protection  and  education  of  our  orphans. 

FURNISHING  THE   NEW   DORMITORY. 

Owing  to  the  heavy  demands  made  upon  the  funds  of  the  Grand 
Lodge  during  the  past  few  years,  we  refrained  from  asking  for  an 
appropriation  to  furnish  the  new  building  last  year,  believing  that  the

Nov.    la    1913 


Lodges*  of  this  great  commonwealth  would  be  only  too  glad  of  the 
opportunity  to  contribute  for  this  purpose.  We  had  more  than  enough 
applications  from  Lodges  who  sent  us  the  total  sum  of  $3,363.20,  which 
the  Board  used  to  purchase  the  furnishings  alike  throughout  the 
building,  and  a  plate  with  the  name  of  the  donor  will  be  found  on  the 
door  of  each  room.  A  complete  list  of  donations  will  be  found  else- 
where in  this  report. 

We  wish  to  express  our  appreciation  and  gratitude  to  those  who 
contributed  so  generously,  enabling  us  to  provide  permanent  ac- 
commodations for  the  girls  and  boys  knocking  for  admission  to  the 
Home. 

RESIDENT  MEMBERS. 

There  are  now  in  the  Home  93  girls  and  82  boys,  of  which  65  are 
full  orphans  and  110  are  half  orphans  (term  used  for  those  having  a 
surviving  parent).  And  we  have  on  file  applications  for  50  half  or- 
phans who  have  been  approved  by  the  Board.  There  are  in  the  Home 
111  children  12  years  of  age  and  under.  After  all  have  been  admitted 
that  have  been  approved,  there  will  be  room  for  about  25  more. 

NO    LIMITATION    ON    APPLICANT. 

Up  to  this  time  the  Board  have  been  able  to  care  for  all  applicants 
and,  while  the  Grand  Lodge  has  never  placed  any  limitations  on  the 
membership  of  the  parent  in  order  that  the  child  be  admitted  to  the 
Home,  the  crowded  condition  of  the  Home  now,  we  believe,  warrants 
action  to  be  taken  along  the  same  lines  as  are  in  force  concerning  the 
admission  to  the  Old  Folks'  Home,  viz.:  the  father  be  required  to  be- 
long to  the  Order  for  at  least  five  years  and  hold  membership  in 
Illinois  for  not  less  than  three  consecutive  years,  as  a  safeguard,  to 
avoid  the  filling  of  the  Home  with  half  orphans,  thus  barring  full 
orphans  or  the  orphans  of  parents  who  were  contributing  members 
for  a  long  term  of  years. 

EDUCATION  OF  OUR  ORPHANS. 

A  year  ago  we  called  attention  to  the  needs  of  more  room  for 
school  purposes  when  the  new  dormitory  was  completed,  and  that 
time  has  now  arrived  and  we  wish  again  to  direct  your  attention  to  the 
crowded  condition  of  each  of  the  four  school  rooms  and  the  utter 
impossibility  of  giving  the  children  the  attention  which  we  believe 
that  you  would  have  us  give  them.  So  your  Board  have  considered 
several   plans,   holding  of  half  school   days,  to   which   objection   was 


142  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  )  x     Tuesday 


i  Nov.     18.     v>i:; 


raised  of  the  impossibility  of  completing  their  school  work  before  they 
must  leave  the  Home;  that  the  half  basement  be  taken  that  is  now 
used  for  a  gymnasium,  to  which  objections  were  raised  that  its  use 
would  mean  sickness,  as  it  is  damp  at  certain  seasons  of  the  school 
year;  to  the  dividing  of  the  chapel,  which  is  a  part  of  the  school  build- 
ing, by  folding  doors,  making  two  good  school  rooms.  We  believe  this 
latter  plan  is  the  better,  but  that  would  call  for  a  new  building  to  be 
used  for  chapel  purposes. 

CHAPEL. 

Hence  the  Board  have  carefully  considered  the  subject  and  find 
that  a  sum  of  money,  about  $15,000.00,  will  be  needed  to  erect  a  two 
story  building,  suitable  for  the  purpose,  that  will  seat  300  people,  the 
upper  floor  to  be  left  unfinished  until  needed,  when  it  will  make  good 
rooms  for  the  use  of  the  employees  of  the  Home.  The  seats  and 
memorial  windows  now  in  the  chapel  could  be  removed  and  used  in  the 
chapel  building.  Permit  us  to  go  farther  and  say  that  we  could  get 
along  with  half  this  sum  of  money  the  coming  year,  the  balance  to  be 
paid  after  the  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  1915. 

SOME  OF  THE  NEEDS  OF  THE  HOME. 

About  500  feet  of  fire  hose  and  a  hose  reel  are  needed  so  that  in 
case  of  fire  the  employees  of  the  Home  could  attach  it  to  the  fire  plug 
and  have  water  playing  on  the  fire  many  minutes  before  the  fire  de- 
partment of  Lincoln  could  reach  the  home.  This  is  especially  neces- 
sary in  the  spring  of  the  year,  when  the  streets  leading  to  the  Home 
are  almost  impassable.  It  seems  to  us  that  this  should  be  bought  at 
once,  since  so  many  preciousi  lives  are  at  stake  and  the  buildings  so 
close  to  each  other. 

Two  new  pianos  are  needed  for  the  new  dormitory  building. 

A  stoker  for  use  on  the  new  boiler  would  mean  a  good  saving  in 
the  use  of  fuel  to  the  Home. 

An  ice  house  is  needed,  so  that  ice  could  be  packed  by  the  Home 
each  winter  instead  of  buying  it  from  the  local  ice  company.

How  to  Gain  Admission. 

Lodges  or  guardians,  wishing  to  place  in  the  Home  children  who 
are  eligible  to  its  benefits,  should  apply  to  the  Superintendent,  Dr. 
J.  A.  Lucas,  Lincoln,  Illinois,  for  a  blank  form  of  application.  The  blank 
application  must  be  signed  by  the  guardian,  if  the  child  is  a  full  orphan. 
And  every  child,  before  admission,  must  have  a  guardian.  If  a  half 
orphan,  the  living  parent  must  sign  the  application.  The  Lodge,  of 
which  the  father  was  a  member,  if  dead,  or  is  a  member,  if  living,  must 
also  sign  the  application  (under  seal).  The  application  should  be  re- 
turned to  the  superintendent  who  will  present  it  to  the  Board  of 
Directors  for  consideration  at  their  first  rneeting  thereafter. 

Domestic  Science  Building. 

The  Rebekahs  of  Illinois  are  constantly  doing  something  under  the 
wise  direction  of  the  Assembly,  in  providing  for  their  building  donated 
to  the  Home.  Since  carpeting  the  entire  dining  room  with  linoleum 
the  Domestic  Science  Committee,  consisting  of  Mrs.  May  Keiser,  P.P.; 
Mrs.  Lina  D.  Carlin,  P.P.;  and  Mrs.  Kate  Troxell,  P.P.,  have  decided 
to  remove  one  of  the  stairs  and  part  of  the  wall,  in  order  that  addi- 
tional room  may  be  made  to  the  dining  room.  By  so  doing  it  will  not 
be  necessary  for  them  to  enlarge  the  dining  room  further  than  this 
for  this  year.  Otherwise  it  would  have  been  necessary  to  have  taken 
out  one  end  of  the  dining  room  and  added  to  it  in  order  to  accommo- 
date the  large  number  of  new  children  that  will  be  in  the  Home  by  the 
time  the  Assembly  meets.  However,  if  the  children  continue  to  come 
to  the  Home  in  the  future  as  they  have  asked  to  do  the  first  of  the 
year,  it  will  only  be  a  little  while  until  more  dining  room  space  will 
be  required.  The  Home  feels  more  than  grateful  to  the  good  Rebekahs 
of  Illinois  for  their  kindly  thoughtfulness  of  our  dear  children. 

The  Assembly. 

The  generous  donation  of  $57.63  for  the  Thanksgiving  dinner  was 
used  in  providing  a  turkey  dinner  that  would  have  pleased  the  appe- 
tite of  an  emperor.  If  you  could  only  have  heard  the  pleasant  remarks 
about  how  the  children  loved  you  all  for  your  thoughtfulness,  you 
would  have  been  repaid  a  thousand  times.  The  children  did  give  a 
hearty  vote  of  thanks  to  the  Assembly,  which  means,  of  course,  all  the 
Rebekahs  of  Illinois,  for  the  kind  and  generous  gift. 

Three  hundred  dollars  was  provided  for  a  sewing  woman.  One 
has  been  in  the  constant  employment  of  the  Home,  to  the  great  benefit 
of  the  children.

Christmas  and  Holidays. 

It  seems  that  every  year  grows  better  than  the  year  before.  The 
children  thought  they  had  the  time  of  their  lives,  but  this  year  the 
donation  was  more  generous  than  ever  before.  You  have  read  the 
letters  of  appreciation  in  the  Odd  Fellows'  Herald  and  I  am  sure  that 
these  have  conveyed  to  you  the  full  meaning  of  what  it  is  to  be  an 
Odd  Fellows'  orphan.  All  kinds  of  toys,  dolls  and  playthings  of  every 
description  were  sent  in  by  the  good  Sisters  and  Brothers  for  our 
children.  Money  was  sent  to  buy  presents  and  this  was  duly  acknowl- 
edged by  receipt  and  letter.  The  gifts  were  too  numerous  to  place  in 
the  report,  for  it  seems  to  me  it  would  take  a  separate  report  if  we 
named  everything.  To  all  those  who  were  so  thoughtful  of  our  children 
we  wish  to  express  our  deepest  appreciation  and  gratitude. 

Schools. 

We  have  perhaps  the  only  complete  school  in  Logan  county.  I 
mean  by  that  we  have  all  grades  up  through  the  eighth,  manual  train- 
ing and  domestic  science.  This  makes  a  complete  school.  Here  the 
children  receive  a  literary  and  musical  education,  as  well  as  learning 
practical  house-keeping,  sewing,  manual  training,  cooking,  etc.  Grad- 
uates from  the  eighth  grade  may  be  admitted  to  the  high  school  with- 
out examination.  Careful  attention  is  given  to  both  instrumental  and 
vocal  music.  The  manual  training  boys  do  much  of  the  repairing  work 
about  the  Home,  in  making  the  necessary  changes,  remodeling  our 
basements,  barns,  etc.,  besides  the  regular  school  work. 

We  find  ourselves  greatly  handicapped  this  year  on  account  of 
the  lack  of  school  room.  Our  third  and  fourth  grades  are  so  crowded 
that  it  now  looks  as  if  we  should  be  obliged  to  have  half-day  sessions. 
We  hope  that  our  Grand  Lodge  will  see  fit  to  give  us  at  least  two  more 
rooms,  which  next  year  will  be  crowded  full  of  children. 

Grand  Master  John  E.  Jennings  delivered  the  class  address. 
Warren  C.  Darnall,  Deputy  Grand  Master,  also  delivered  an  address. 
Grand  Secretary  Sikes,  Chairman  Chas.  W.  Keiser,  Secretary  Birney 
and  G.  M.  Carson,  of  the  Board,  spoke  briefly.  Chairman  Keiser  pre- 
sided and  the  Superintendent  presented  the  diplomas. 

The  teachers  for  this  year  are: 

Miss  Flora  Sheets  (a  former  Home  girl),  principal  and  teacher  in 
the  seventh  and  eighth  grades. 

Miss  Clara  Wonderley,  fifth  and  sixth  grades. 

Miss  Olive  Ramsey,  third  and  fourth  grades. 

Miss  Blanche  Baldwin,  first  and  second  grades.

Miss  Huldah  Peters,  vocal  and  instrumental  music. 

Miss  Pauline  Kamm,  domestic  science. 

Harold  C.  Porter,  manual  training. 

Prof.  H.  O.  Merry,  band. 

There  were  twelve  graduates  in  the  eighth  grade. 

Band. 
Our  band  was  greatly  broken  up  when  seven  of  our  boys  and  girls 
went  to  their  guardians,  on  account  of  the  age  limit,  but  under  the  skill- 
ful management  and  direction  of  Prof.  H.  O.  Merry,  than  whom  we 
think  there  is  no  better,  we  expect  the  newly  organized  band  to  come 
up  to  the  high  standard  for  former  proficiency  by  the  time  the  Grand 
Lodge  meets.     Segurd  Carlstrom  continues  as  leader  of  the  band. 

New  Building. 

The  new  building,  authorized  by  the  Grand  Lodge,  is  now  complete 
and  will  be  ready  for  occupancy  soon.  We  expect  by  the  time  the 
Grand  Lodge  meets,  when  it  will  be  formally  dedicated,  that  it  will  be 
almost  full  of  children.  It  accommodates-  seventy-two.  As  we  de- 
scribed this  building  quite  fully  the  last  time,  we  think  it  unnecessary 
to  enter  into  further  description,  only  to  say  that  the  building  is  the 
very  best,  from  the  architectural  as  well  as  builder's  standpoint,  we 
have  on  the  ground.  We  believe  that  unless  torn  down  by  a  storm 
it  will  stand  for  one  hundred  years  or  more  as  a  monument  of  the 
ability  and  careful  construction  by  our  Board  of  Directors. 

DOMESTIC  SCIENCE  BUILDING. 

The  permanent  committee  from  the  Rebekah  Assembly  have 
planned  to  enlarge  the  main  dining  room  in  their  building  by  remov- 
ing a  part  of  the  west  wall  between  the  dining  room  and  a  hall  stair- 
way adjoining,  which  was  not  needed,  and  in  this  way  care  for  the 
increased  membership  of  the  Home. 

They  have  replaced  the  old  refrigerator  which  was  too  small  for 
the  needs  of  the  Home  with  a  much  larger  one,  and  they  intend  deco- 
rating the  inside  walls  of  this  building  this  fall,  thus  keeping  this 
splendid  building,  erected  and  given  by  them  to  the  Order,  in  the  very 
best  condition,  all  of  which  is  appreciated  very  much  by  the  Board. 

District  Assembly  No.  28  has  just  furnished  a  room  in  the  Domestic 
Science  building  at  a  cost  of  $123.63. 

FRATERNAL  CONGRESS. 

By  invitation  from  the  Board,  the  superintendents,  matrons,  direc- 
tors, trustees  and  the  Grand  Officers  of  the  Odd  Fellows,  Masonic  and

_T /  Nov.    18.    1913. 

Knights  of  Pythias  fraternal  orders,  met  with  the  Board  at  Lincoln 
at  the  Home  on  Monday,  September  1st.  There  were  about  50  present. 
The  object  of  the  meeting  was  to  discuss  freely  the  management 
of  our  Homes,  and  we  believe  much  information  of  value  was  given  at 
this  meeting. 

We  were  especially  pleased  to  have  with  us  on  this  occasion  the 
chairman  and  Secretary  of  the  Odd  Fellows'  Old  Folks'  Home  Board 
of  Trustees;  Brothers  L.  M.  Kagy,  J.  W.  Yantis.  P.G.R.;  Owen  Scott 
and  Deputy  Grand  Master  Warren  C.  Darnall.  Deputy  Grand  Master 
Warren  C.  Darnall  and  the  Secretary  of  our  Board,  J.  W.  Birney,  were 
unanimously  chosen  president  and  secretary  of  the  Fraternal  Congress 
for  the  coming  year.  An  invitation  from  the  Old  Folks'  Masonic  Home 
at  Sullivan,  to  meet  there  in  1914,  was  accepted. 

FERMANENT  IMPROVEMENTS  MADE  DURING  THE  PAST  YEAR. 

Many  much  needed  permanent  improvements  have  been  made 
during  the  past  year,  to  which  we  wish  to  direct  your  attention:

reading  room;  a  new  $350.00  upright  piano  won  by  Dr.  J.  A.  Lucas  in 
a  popularity  contest  and  presented  by  him  to  the  Home;  30  hand 
painted  pictures  framed  and  hung  in  the  corridors  of  the  new  dormi-

Carl   Schoen. 

Carl  Albert  Schoen,  son  of  Mrs.  Lottie  Schoen,  of  Girard,  died 
August  4,  1913,  aged  11  years,  6  months  and  24  days. 

Carl  had  been  in  the  Home  almost  five  years  and  during  the  entire 
time  seemed  to  be  in  the  best  of  health,  up  to  within  three  days  of  his 
departure.  He  was  taken  suddenly  ill  and,  notwithstanding  all  the 
medical  skill  attending  him,  they  were  unable  to  restore  him  to  health. 
We  had  five  different  doctors,  but  the  disease  baffled  all. 

We  miss  Carl  at  the  Home  and  the  shock  was  very  great,  as  he  only 
lived  three  days  after  his  sickness.  The  Odd  Fellows  of  Girard  put 
him  away  to  rest  with  tender  care  and  great  affection.  No  Odd  Fellow 
could  have  been  given  more  attention  nor  could  hands  have  been  more 
loving  than  were  those  of  the  Rebekahs  and  Odd  Fellows  of  Girard. 

Rev.  C.  H.  Turner,  of  the  Methodist  church,  preached  the  funeral 
sermon  in  the  Christian  church  of  Girard. 

This  makes  the  seventh  child  of  the  Home  to  leave  us  in  the  last 
twenty-one  years.

FINANCIAL   STATEMENT. 

Cash  Donations,  Etc. 
The  following,  given  in  detail,  are  the  cash  receipts  by  donations 
and  otherwise  during  the  year.  Useful  and  valuable  articles  have  been 
given  as  in  former  years,  for  which  we  are  very  thankful,  but,  as  they 
have  been  duly  acknowledged  by  letter  and  in  The  Odd  Fellows'  Herald, 
from  time  to  time,  it  seems  unnecessary  to  again  enumerate  them,  as 
they  would  require  much  space  and  expense.

CONCLUSION. 

The  year  has  passed  only  too  quickly  and  with  the  foregoing 
report  we  hope  our  work  will  meet  with  your  approval.  Each  member 
of  the  Board  of  Directors  is  appreciative  of  the  generousr  support 
accorded  the  Home,  and  we  owe  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  the  Grand 
Lodge,  Rebekah  Assembly,  Grand  Encampment,  Lodges  and  Encamp- 
ments and  members  of  the  Order  for  their  liberal  appropriations  and 
donations  tbat  have  enabled  us  to  care  for  and  make  the  children 
happy. 

While  the  requirements  grow  more  each  year  with  the  growth  of 
the  Order,  there  comes  to  each  individual  member  of  the  Board  the 
greater  joy  from  increased  labors  of  love. 

The  Advisory  Board  met  with  us  .twice  during  the  year  and  our 
joint  meetings  were  harmonious  and  pleasant  and  many  good  ideas 
were  given  the  Board  by  our  co-workers  and  we  were  glad  indeed  to 
have  their  helpful  co-operation. 

Superintendent  and  Matron,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  J.  A.  Lucas,  have  spared 
nothing  in  their  conscientious,  loving  efforts  to  make  the  Home  life 
ideal,  ever  willing  and  anxious  to  do  everything  in  their  power  for  the 
Home,  its  residents  and  the  Board.  We  can  not  conceive  how  it  is 
possible  to  do  more  than  this  worthy  Superintendent  and  Matron  have 
done  and  are  doing  every  day  of  the  year  as  loyal  foster  parents  of 
our  girls  and  boys. 

Our  teachers  and  governesses  have  a  very  important  part  in  the 
education  and  daily  care  of  the  175  children  and  we  feel  that  their 
selection  could  not  well  be  improved  upon.

Our  farmer  and  his  assistants  and  all  of  the  help  employed  on  the 
farm  and  in  the  kitchen,  our  laundryman  and  engineer,  all  have  th« 
good  of  the  Home  at  heart  and  a  cheerfulness  and  happiness  prevail 
among  all  of  the  employees!  that  acts  as  rays  of  sunshine  upon  our 
girls  and  boys. 

We  are  grateful  to  you,  Grand  Master,  for  your  advice  and  counsel, 
likewise  to  every  one  who  has  helped  along  in  this  work,  and  to  the 
fraternal  papers  whose  columns  have  carried  many  messages  to  and 
from  the  brotherhood  and  sisterhood,  we  wish  to  acknowledge  our 
gratefulness. 

We  close  our  report  in  the  firm  belief  that  the  needs  of  our 
Orphans'  Home  will  be  as  generously  cared  for  in  the  future  as  in  the 
past.

To  the  Grand  Master,  Jno.  B.  Jennings,  and  Members  of  the  Grand 
Lodge  I.  O.  O.  F.: 

We  take  pleasure  in  submitting  to  you  the  sixteenth  annual  re- 
port of  the  Old  Folks'  Home,  at  Mattoon,  for  the  year  ending  September 
30th,  1913. 

The  year  has  been  an  active  one,  with  its  usual  cares  and  enjoy- 
ments. Many  new  members  have  been  admitted,  and  quite  a  number 
are  now  placed  upon  the  waiting  list  to  be  admitted  as  soon  as  room 
can  be  provided.  The  death  rate  among  the  members  has  been  low, 
as  viewed  by  the  tables  of  expectancy,  but  still  fifteen  have  been 
called  by  the  grim  messenger  of  death.  Among  those  taken  were 
Sister  Hannah  Foss,  who  died  at  the  advanced  age  of  96  years,  and 
Brother  Stephen  Hess,  aged  87  years.  Brother  Hess  was  the  first 
member  admitted  to  the  Home,  having  entered  the  Home  May  11, 
1899. 

The  health  generally  has  been  good  throughout  the  year,  the  sani- 
tary conditions  of  the  Home  have  been  excellent,  and  the  general 
healthy  condition  of  the  Home  never  better  than  now. 

Perfection  can  not  at  all  times  be  expected  in  earthly  institutions, 
but  your  trustees  have  given  their  best  endeavor  to  minimize  any 
unpleasant  conditions  that  might  arise. 

Brother  and  Sister  J.  T.  North  have  been  in  charge  of  the  Home 
as  Superintendent  and  Matron  during  the  year,  and  the  results  of  their 
earnest  labor  can  be  seen  in  the  splendid  healthy  surroudings  of  the 
farm,  garden  and  buildings.  Cleanliness  and  avoidance  of  wastefulness 
has  characterized  their  efforts,  and  they  have  been  able  to  surround 
themselves  with  employees  that  have  yielded  cheerful  helpfulness  in 
the  performance  of  their  duties. 

There  are  at  present  141  members,  112  Brothers  and  29  Sisters,  an 
increase  of  12  members  over  last  year.  The  average  age  is  72,  and 
28  are  over  80  years  old. 

The  year  has  brought  many  visitors  to  the  Home,  not  only  from 
our  own  jurisdiction,  but  from  neighboring  and  foreign  states,  and 
they  left  with  the  management  much  encouragement  by  their  many 
expressions  of  appreciation  as  to  the  condition  of  the  Home  and  the 
care  of  its  members. 


l88  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  {Nov^ll^lbl" 

The  members  generally  have  been  respectful  to  the  rules  and 
helpful  both  in  labor  and  deportment.  A  very  few  have  made  com- 
plaint, but  close  investigation  has  revealed  but  little  or  no  merit  in 
the  complaints,  and  the  Board  and  management  have  endeavored  to 
cure  any  defect  that  might  arise. 

NEEDS  OF  THE   HOME. 

We  wish  again  to  call  attention  to  the  indispensable  need  of  mak- 
ing provision  for  the  care  of  that  class  of  our  brothers  and  sisters 
afflicted  with  physical  and  mental  disabilities'  that  make  it  imperative 
that  they  should  have  different  care  than  can  be  given  them  with  our 
present  facilities. 

With  the  number  of  old  people  now  in  our  Home  it  can  be  ex- 
pected that  there  will  be  a  gradual  passing  into  these  unfortunate 
conditions,  and  the  pressure  from  Lodges  to  get  this  class  of  their 
stricken  members  into  the  Home  is  growing  more  persistent.  Under 
the  rules  of  the  Grand  Lodge  they  are  not  now  entitled  to  member- 
ship in  the  Home,  but,  by  the  applicant  and  Lodge  glazing  the  truth 
and  withholding  some  of  the  facts,  the  trustees  have  been  imposed 
upon  to  such  an  extent  that  some  of  this  class  of  cases  have  been 
admitted.  If  the  Order  desires  that  these  sorely  afflicted  ones  shall 
be  cared  for  at  the  Home,  provision  must  be  made  for  an  isolated 
building  equipped  for  their  care,  convenience  and  comfort.  This  is  a 
matter  of  vital  importance,  and  we  trust  that  it  may  receive  your 
earnest  consideration. 

With  the  increased  number  of  members  we  find  that  our  dining 
room  will  all  be  needed  for  the  members,  and  are  planning  for  an 
additional  room  to  accommodate  the  management  and  their  help.  We 
believe  that  this  can  be  done  without  the  necessity  for  a  special  ap-' 
propriation  for  the  purpose. 

OUR  FARM,  GARDEN  AND  DAIRY. 

Our  farm  has  been  exceptionally  well  managed.  Brother  North  is 
a  practical  man  with  farm  and  stock,  and  the  latter  have  yielded 
splendid  results. 

Our  garden  has  done  much  to  supply  the  table  with  delicious 
vegetables,  notwithstanding  the  extremely  dry  season.  Our  dairy  has 
fallen  short  in  its  product,  owing  to  shortage  of  pasture,  but  we  are 
keeping  our  herd  in  good  condition.  Under  appropriate  headings  we 
submit  our  statistical  report.

CONCLUSION. 

We  trust  that  the  foregoing  report  will  meet  with  your  approval, 
and  the  Board  of  Trustees  desire  to  express  their  thanks  to  all  who 
have  aided  us  in  laboring  for  the  welfare  of  this  Home. 

To  the  Grand  Lodge,  the  Rebekah  Assembly,  the  Grand  Encamp- 
ment, and  to  the  Patriarchs  Militant  we  are  especially  grateful.  The 
Advisory  Board  have  been  kind  and  generous  of  their  time  in  aiding 
the  Trustees  and  in  visiting  and  giving  entertainment  to  the  old 
Brothers  and  Sisters.  The  Grand  Master  has  been  earnest  in  his 
endeavor  to  see  that  everything  in  reason  was  done  for  the  comfort 
of  the  members  of  the  Home.  He  has  thoroughly  investigated  any 
complaints  that  have  been  made  to  him,  and  has  freely  discussed 
matters  with  the  Board  of  Trustees,  and  the  conducting  of  the  business 
has  been  harmonious  between  the  Grand  Master  and  the  Board  of 
Trustees. 

We  desire  to  call  attention  of  the  representatives  and  members 
throughout  the  State  to  the  first  letter  sent  out  to  Lodges  by  Grand 
Master  Jno.  E.  Jennings,  in  which  he  urged  upon  each  Lodge  to  ap- 
point one  or  more  of  its  members,  each  year,  as  a  committee  to  visit 
the  two  Homes,  and  in  this  manner  get  in  closer  touch  with  the  great 
philanthropic  work  that  was  being  carried  on  by  our  Order  in  the 
conducting  of  these  Homes.  A  great  many  Lodges  have  not  availed 
themselves  of  this  suggestion,  but  we  hope  that  this  action  has  only 
been  delayed  and  in  the  near  future  we  may  be  able  to  have  them  go 
through  the  Homes. 

All  the  Grand  Officers  have  been  uniformly  courteous.  Brother 
James  Henry  Harris  made  a  special  trip  to  the  Home  to  give  his  aid 
in  the  repairing  and  improving  of  our  heating  plant,  the  Medical  Staff 
of  the  Patriarchs  Militant  again  made  a  thorough  inspection  of  the 
sanitary  condition  of  our  buildings.  The  moving  picture  outfit,  pre- 
sented to  the  Home  by  the  Grand  Encampment,  has  made  it  possible 
to  give  good  entertainments  for  the  enjoyment  of  the  members  of  the 
Home  and  is  much  appreciated  by  them.

appreciative  thanks.

REPORT  OF  GRAND  SECRETARY. 

To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  O.  F. 

I  herewith  submit  my  report  as  your  Secretary  for  the  year  end- 
ing November  1,  1913.  The  Order  throughout  the  jurisdiction  is  in 
splendid  condition,  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  the  increase  in  mem- 
bership was  less  than  in  previous  years. 

Many  jurisdictions  showed  a  net  loss  in  membership  during  the 
past  year.  Our  report  to  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  is  for  the  year 
from  April  1,  1912,  to  April  1,  1913,  thus  covering  nine  months  of  the 
presidential  year  which  is  generally  considered  an  off  year  for  pros- 
perity. Illinois  made  a  satisfactory  gain,  showing  an  increase  in  Sub- 
ordinate membership  of  2,205  and  an  increase  in  Rebekah  membership 
of  3.346. 

The  semi-annual  reports  received  for  the  term  ending  September 
30,   indicate  marked   activity. 

A  large  number  of  Schools  of  Instruction  have  been  held  during 
the  year  with  great  interest  and  success.  Much  depends  upon  a 
proper  interpretation  of  the  ritual  and  the  force  with  which  our 
lessons  are  imparted  to  candidates.  The  difference  between  a  Lodge 
thoroughly  qualified  to  exemplify  the  degrees  and  teach  the  beautiful 
lessons  of  the  Order  and  one  not  so  prepared  is  the  difference  between 
a  successful,  progressive  organization  and  a  dormant  one. 

It  is  encouraging  to  know  that  Odd  Fellowship  in  Illinois  is  taking 
higher  ground,  not  cnly  in  degree  work,  but  in  the  great  field  of  use- 
fulness  to  mankind. 

Our  Order  is  a  social,  an  educational,  and  a  beneficial  institution 
covering  a  very  wide  range  of  service.  The  three  links  is  a  badge  ef 
honor  and  in  no  state  can  they  be  worn  with  greater  pride  than  in  our 
own  beloved  Illinois.

GRAND   LODGE  JOURNAL  OF   1912. 

The  Grand  Lodge  Journal  for  the  session  of  1912  consisted 'of  579 
pages. 

To  arrange  copy,  read  proof,  and  index  the  Grand  Lodge  Journal, 
requires  the  entire  time  of  a  thoroughly  competent  person,  whom  we 
secured  in  the  person  of  Bro.  Past  Grand  Master  Owen  Scott. 

TRUSTEES   OF   THE   ORPHANS'  AND   OLD   FOLKS'    HOMES. 

All  bills  allowed  by  the  two  Boards  of  Trustees  are  forwarded  to 
me  with  an  attached  certificate  signed  by  the  President  and  Secretary 
of  the  Board  and  countersigned  by  the  Grand  Master.  These  bills  and 
vouchers  are  kept  on  file  in  my  office  for  future  reference,  and  orders 
on  the  Grand  Treasurer  are  drawn  for  the  several  amounts.  Upon 
these  vouchers  the  Grand  Master  and  myself  have  drawn  orders  on  the 
Grand  Treasurer  for  the  sum  of  $31,156.33,  to  pay  bills  contracted  by 
the  Trustees  of  the  Old  Folks'  Home,  and  the  sum  of  $41,534.85,  to  pay 
bills  contracted  by  the  Directors  of  the  Orphans'  Home,  making  a  total 
disbursement  for  these  two  charities  of  the  sum  of  $72,691.18. 


JUDICIARY  AND  APPEALS  COMMITTEE. 

As  Secretary  of  the  Judiciary  and  Appeals  Committee,  I  report 
that  four  sessions  of  this  committee  were  held,  as  provided  by  law, 
on  the  third  Tuesdays  of  November,  1912,  February,  May  and  August, 
of  the  present  year.     At  the  November  session  one  opinion  was  ren- 


20O  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  \  Vn  .Tu1e|da^' 


/Nov.    18,    inia. 


dered  and  the  By-Laws  from  62  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodges  were 
acted  upon.  At  the  February  session  five  opinions  were  rendered 
and  the  By-Laws  from  50  Subordinate  and  13  Rebekah  Lodges  were 
acted  upon.  At  the  May  session  1  opinion  was  rendered  and  the  By- 
Laws  from  78  Subordinate  and  13  Rebekah  Lodges  were  acted  upon. 
At  the  August  session  two  opinions  were  rendered  and  the  By-Laws 
from  69  Subordinate  and  9  Rebekah  Lodges  were  acted  upon. 

CHANGE    IN    ANNUAL    REPORT. 

Complying  with  Document  45,  page  349,  Grand  Lodge  Journal  1912, 
I  made  a  change  in  the  annual  reports  as  received  from  Subordinate 
Lodges.  Under  the  proper  headings  a  description  of  real  estate  and 
personal  property  owned  by  each  Subordinate  Lodge  is  given,  to- 
gether with  an  approximate  valuation.  In  this  manner  we  are  able 
to  secure  a  better  idea  of  the  property  owned  by  Subordinate  Lodge5?, 
as  well  as  a  comprehensive  idea  as  to  the  value  of  the  same. 

RELIEF   COMMITTEES. 

Complying  with  Document  95,  page  372,  Grand  Lodge  Journal, 
1912,  I  have  submitted  resolution  No.  2  of  the  Grand  Representatives'" 
report  to  the  Subordinate  Lodges  of  Illinois  for  suggestions  in  the 
matter  of  organizing  Relief  Committees. 

PAST  GRAND    MASTERS'  JEWELS. 

Under  action  had  by  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  on  Document 
152,  page  420,  Grand  Lodge  Journal,  1912,  providing  for  Past  Grand 
Masters'  Jewels,  I  report  that  twenty-four  Jewels  were  procured  and 
presented  to  the  following  Past  Grand  Masters,  viz.: 

Thomas  B.  Needles,  Augustus  W.  Berggren,  Geo.  F.  Howard,  J 
Otis  Humphrey,  Martin  W.  Schaefer,  E.  S.  Conway,  Henry  A.  Stone,

Scott,  Wm.  M.  Groves,  E.  R.  Sayler,  James  Ewing  Davis,  Wm.  A. 
Hubbard. 

GRAND    SECRETARY'S    OFFICE    QUARTERS. 

Under  instructions  from  the  Grand  Lodge,  found  on  page  618, 
Grand  Lodge  Journal,  1911,  the  Grand  Secretary  was  instructed  not 
to  enter  into  a  lease  for  office  quarters  for  a  longer  term  than  one 
year  after  the  expiration  of  the  lease  in  force,  which  expired  on  the 
30th  day  of  November,  1912. 


Nov^ll^lblS  1       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  26l 

Pursuant  to  these  instructions  a  new  lease  was  signed  for  one 
year,  which  terminated  on  Nov.  30,  1913. 

I  have  held  over  under  this  lease,  not  knowing  what  action  might 
be  taken   by  the  Grand  Lodge.

JUDICIARY  AND  APPEALS  COMMITTEE

PROCEEDINGS  OF  THE  FIRST  SESSION-FEB.  18,  1913. 


CASE  NO.  423. 


Paris  Wilson,  ]  Before   Committee  on  Judiciary 

vs.  I      and    Appeals,    February    Ses- 

New  Hope  Lodge  No.  263,  I.  O.  O.  F.  \      sion,  1913. 

Opinion  by  Brother  W.  E.  P.  Anderson,  of  No.  107. 

This  case  was  heard  and  decided  by  this  Committee  at  its  August 
session,  1911,  (see  Case  No.  423,  Grand  Lodge  Journal  of  1911,  at  page 
482)  in  which  benefits  were  claimed  by  Bro.  Paris  Wilson  at  the  rate 
of  three  dollars  per  week  from  September,  1908,  to  September,  1910. 
The  question  at  issue  then  being  whether  he  was  still  suffering  from  a 
stroke  of  paralysis  in  September,  1908  (at  which  time  it  then  appeared 
he  was  non-beneficiary)  or  whether  his  recent  incapacitation  was 
brought  about  by  other  causes.  From  the  record  and  evidence  before 
us  at  that  time,  we  held  that  he- was  still  suffering  from  his  affliction 
of  September,  1908,  and  sustained  the  action  of  the  Lodge  in  rejecting 
the  claim.  Subsequently,  probably  at  the  November  session,  1911, 
counsel  for  claimant  appearing  before  the  Committee  and  representing 
that  important  and  newly  discovered  evidence  had  been  found  favor- 
able to  claimant,  requested  that  the  case  be  reopened  and  sent 
back  to  New  Hope  Lodge  for  a  new  trial,  which  request  was  granted. 
It  now  appears  from  the  record  before  us  that  the  case  was  again 
heard  by  the  Lodge  on  August  12,  1912,  and  the  claim  again  rejected 
by  a  unanimous  vote,  and  it  is  now  before  us  on  appeal  by  claimant. 
Much  evidence  in  the  form  of  affidavits  and  the  depositions  of  one  or 
two  witnesses  has  been  introduced  and  the  case  strenuously  and  zeal- 
ously tried  and  argued  by  the  attorneys  for  both  the  claimant  and  the 
Lodge. 

The  case  being  one  of  considerable  importance  and  interest  to  all 
concerned,  and  also  one  which  possesses  a  sad  and  sympathetic  fea- 
ture, it  will,  in  our  judgment,  not  be  inopportune  to  go  into  the  facts 
and  circumstances  surrounding  it  at  more  length  than  is  usual. 

Bro.  Paris  Wilson  resided  with  his  family  on  a  farm  near  Table 
Grove,  McDonough  county,  Illinois,  and  on  or  about  the  22d  day  of 
January,  1901,  he  became  a  member  of  New  Hope  Lodge  No.  263,  I.  O. 


270                                        rOURXAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  (  x.     T"''s'l:i.v. 
; /  Nov.     is.    1D1... 

O.  P.,  located  at  Blandinsville,  Illinois.  On  or  about  March  1st,  1907, 
he,  together  with  his  family,  moved  on  a  farm  in  Kay  county,  Okla- 
homa, about  seven  miles  from  South  Haven,  and  about  three  and  a  half 
miles  from  Hunnewell,  in  the  State  of  Kansas;  there  was  no  Odd 
Fellows  Lodge  at  Hunnewell,  but  there  was  one  at  South  Haven.  At 
the  time  of  his  removal  to  Oklahoma  he  was  apparently  in  good  health, 
and  so  continued  until  September  or  October,  1907,  when  he  suffered 
a  stroke  of  paralysis,  and  in  September  or  October,  1908.  he  suffered 
a  second  stroke  which  resulted  in  his  being  committed  to  an  insane 
asylum  in  the  State  of  Kansas. 

Benefits  at  the  rate  of  three  dollars  per  week  from  September, 
1907,  to  September,  1910.  amounting  approximately  to  $368.00,  are 
now  sought  to  be  recovered  by  Bro.  Wilson  from  New  Hope  Lodge, 
and  the  question  for  us  to  determine  is  whether  Bro.  Wilson  had 
recovered  from  the  stroke  of  1907  and  whether  the  stroke  of  1908  was 
incident  to  and  the  outgrowth  of  the  stroke  of  1907.  Notwithstanding 
that  in  the  former  trial  counsel  for  claimant  contended  that  he  had 
recovered  from  the  stroke  of  1907  and  that  the  stroke  of  1908  was 
brought  about  by  other  causes,  while  he  was  beneficiary,  it  is  now 
contended  that  Bro.  Wilson  is  still  suffering  from  his  affliction  and 
incapacitation  brought  about  by  the  stroke  of  1907.  Since  the  case 
was  first  heard  it  has  developed  that  Bro.  Wilson  was  then  probably 
beneficiary  and  that  it  is  questionable  whether  he  was  beneficiary  at 
the  time  of  the  stroke  in  1908. 

The  evidence  on  the  part  of  the  claimant  is  substantially  as  fol- 
lows; and  which  we  have  confined  to  his  condition  physically  and 
mentally  from  September,  1907,  to  the  fall  of  1908,  when  he  had  the 
second  stroke,  as  there  is  no  dispute  but  that  the  stroke  of  1908  re- 
sulted in  his  becoming  and  is  now  a  physical  and  mental  wreck. 

Mrs.  Wilson,  the  wife  of  the  claimant,  states:  That  the  stroke  of 
September,  1907,  incapacitated  Bro.  Wilson  for  a  time  from  attending 
to  his  farm  duties,  and  that  while  under  the  doctor's  care  after  that, 
he  was  better  at  times,  went  about  his  farm  doing  light  work,  although 
there  were  days  he  could  do  nothing,  that  he  gradually  grew  worse 
and  was  able  to  do  but  very  little  work  on  his  farm  in  190S,  and  that  he 

had  a  second  paralytic  stroke  about  the  day  of  September.  1908. 

From  that  time  he  was  never  able  to  do  any  work  to  speak  of,  and 
gradually  grew  worse,  and  in  November,  1909,  he  was  taken  to  an  insane 
asylum  in  Kansas,  where  he  is  now  confined;  that  in  September  or  Oc- 
tober, 1908,  the  Lodge  at  New  Haven,  Kansas,  was  notified  by  whom  it 
is  not  disclosed),  and  two  of  its  members  came  out  to  see  him;  that  he 
was  unable  to  do  anything  for  a  month  or  two  before  his  last  stroke; 
that  she  had  made  diligent  search  for  her  husband's  Lodge  receipts  for 
dues  but  could  not  find  them,  although  he  claimed  that  he  had  paid

his  dues,  and  she  supposed  that  in  the  winter  of  1907  and  summer  of 
1908  he  was  not  in  good  standing  and  so  informed  the  two  brothers, 
although  (the  time  when  is  not  stated)  she  did  afterwards  find  them 
and  sent  them  to  Brother  M.  P.  Berry.  While  not  so  stated  the  in- 
ference is  that  they  showed  him  beneficiary  in  September,  1907. 

Statement  of  Frank  Young:  "Am  21  years  old,  now  live  at  Iuka, 
Kansas,  and  am  cashier  of  the  State  Bank  at  that  place.  1  am  the 
son  of  Mrs.  Ella  Wilson  and  a  stepson  of  Paris  Wilson.  In  1907  I  lived 
with  my  mother  and  stepfather  on  the  farm,  worked  for  him  for  wages 
in  1907  and  1908;  in  September  or  October,  1907,  Paris  Wilson  had  a 
paralytic  stroke  that  to  some  extent  rendered  him  unable  to  work; 
he  did  some  light  work  on  the  farm  but  not  any  heavy  work  and  was 
not  able  to  carry  on  his  farm;  he  gradually  grew  worse  after  the 
stroke  in  October,  1907,  until  he  had  his  second  stroke  in  1908,  after 
which  he  was  entirely  unable  to  do  anything.  I  believe  his  second 
stroke  was  in  September,  1908,  but  for  two  or  three  months  prior  to 
the  second  stroke  he  was  unable  to  do  anything  and  was  in  bad  shape. 
I  knew  my  stepfather  was  an  Odd  Fellow,  a  member  of  the  Lodge  at 
Blandinsville,  Illinois,  and  I  have  heard  him  say  that  he  had  paid  up 
and  could  not  find  his  receipts.  Paris  Wilson  was  in  Illinois  in  Sep- 
tember, 1907,  also  in  May,  1907.  He  had  his  first  stroke  after  he  came 
home  in  1907,  withfn  a  month  or  two  afterwards.  I  worked  for  him  on 
the  farm  in  1908  from  March  until  September,  when  I  went  to  school. 
Myself  and  Oscar  Alexander  and  another  man  or  two  did  the  work  on 
the  farm;  Wilson  was  under  the  doctor's  care  all  that  time  and  did 
very  little  work,  although  more  than  he  should  have  done  or  was  able 
to  do.  My  mother  thought  Wilson  was  not  in  good  standing  in  his 
Lodge.  She  searched  diligently  as  I  know  for  his  receipts  but  did  not 
find  them  until  1909.  I  know  my  mother  paid  Dr.  Hollingsworth,  our 
family  physician,  nearly  $450,  most  of  which  was  for  service  rendered 
my  stepfather." 

Statement  of  Oscar  Sutphen:  "Am  30  years  of  age.  Live  in  Ver- 
mont, Fulton  county,  Illinois,  and  have  known  Paris  Wilson  for  a 
good  many  years.  In  the  Spring  of  1907,  about  March  1st,  I  hired  to 
Wilson  to  work  for  him  on  his  farm  in  Oklahoma,  and  went  with  the 
family  to  Oklahoma  when  they  moved  there  from  Illinois  about  March 
1st,  1907.  I  worked  for  him  all  that  summer  on  his  farm  up  to  about 
January  1st,  1908,  and  lived  with  the  family.  Wilson,  so  far  as  I  know, 
was  in  good  health  March  1st,  1907,  when  we  started  to  Oklahoma,  he 
appeared  to  be  in  good  health  and  I  did  not  hear  him  complain  any; 
he  seemed  to  be  in  good  health  most  of  the  summer  and  worked  on 
the  farm  helping  to  put  in  the  crop  and  helping  to  put  up  the  hay. 
He  helped  to  do  most  of  the  farm  work  until  he  had  his  paralytic 
stroke,  which  was  late  in  the  fall  of  1907.    After  that  until  I  left  he  was 


2~.:  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  I  Nov^l^igi 3 

unable  to  do  anything.  His  mind  was  affected  as  well  as  his  body. 
I  did  not  see  him  after  about  January  1st,  1908,  until  he  came  back 
to  Illinois  (time  not  stated).  Mr.  Wilson  may  not  have  been  entirely 
well  during  the  summer  of  1907,  but  he  did  not  complain  much  if  any 
and  was  always  helping  about  the  work  on  the  farm.  I  have  no  inter- 
est in  the  matter  whatever;  am  not  related  to  the  parties.  I  cannot 
give  the  date  of  his  paralytic  stroke,  but  it  must  have  been  the  latter 
part  of  October  or  the  first  of  November." 

Deposition  of  Dr.  T.  J.  Hollingsworth:  "Residence,  South  Haven, 
Sumner  county,  Kansas.  Age  57  years.  Physician  and  surgeon.  Have 
been  in  practice  35  years;  know  Paris  Wilson  and  family;  was  his 
family  physician  in  1907-8  and  9.  Remember  of  Wilson's  having  a 
paralytic  stroke  some  time  in  the  fall  or  winter  of  1907.  To  the  best 
of  my  knowledge  it  was  during  the  time  of  putting  up  the  last  crop  of 
alfalfa  in  the  year  1907.  Remember  visit  to  him  at  time  of  first  para- 
lytic stroke;  made  ten  visits  during  the  month  of  November,  1907. 
(Itemizes  dates  of  visits,  first  one  being  Nov.  13th,  last  one  Nov.  19th.) 
At  the  date  of  my  first  visit  found  that  Wilson's  jaws  were  set;  I  was 
unable  to  separate  them;  he  was  not  sensitive  to  light  or  impressions 
tried  to  be  made  upon  the  person;  to  the  best  of  my  recollection  this 
lasted  four  days;  saw  Wilson  off  and  on  after  this  until  the  time  of 
his  second  stroke ;  remember  the  time  of  second  'Stroke;  there  were 
three  attacks;  they  came  on  every  little  while  and  he  grew  gradually 
worse." 

Interrogatory:  "What  would  you  say,  doctor,  as  a  physician,  as 
to  Paris  Wilson's  ability  to  attend  to  his  ordinary  farm  work  after  his 
first  paralytic  stroke?" 

Answer:  "I  would  consider  him  incapacitated,  as  he  was  danger- 
ous to  man  or  stock.  My  opinion  is  based  on  the  fact  he  was  trying 
continually  to  get  a  gun  or  butcher  knife  and  stated  he  would  do  the 
killing  act  if  he  could  get  the  opportunity." 

Q.  "How  did  this  paralytic  stroke  affect  the  mind  and  memory  of 
Mr.  Wilson?" 

A.  "It  destroyed  the  'faculty'  to  a  certain  extent,  the  lesion  being 
located  in  that  portion  of  the  brain  that  will  develop  vicious  traits." 

Q.  "What  was  Paris  Wilson's  condition  at  the  time  he  was  taken 
to  the  insane  asylum?" 

A.  "He  was  unsafe  to  be  left  with  his  family.  I  am  not  a  member 
of  the  Odd  Fellows  at  the  present  time;  I  knew  Paris  Wilson  was  an 
Odd  Fellow." 

Q.  "Did  you  at  any  time  report  his  condition  to  the  Lodge  at  South 
Haven  or  to  any  of  its  members?" 


NovTU18dai913  }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  273 

A.  "I  took  Mr.  Parnell,  an  Odd  Fellow,  with  me  to  Paris  Wilson  to 
see  him." 

Cross  Examination:  "I  cannot  positively  fix  the  date  of  the  first 
stroke.     The  first  stroke  did  not  occur  in  October,  1907." 

Q.    "How  did  you  know  that  this  was  the  first  stroke?" 

A.  "I  treated  him  ever  since  he  came  here  and  did  not  treat  him 
for  any  stroke  until  the  fall.  Think  I  heard  him  ask  for  a  gun  or  a  knife 
and  threaten  to  kill  four  or  five  times.  I  cannot  tell  from  my  books 
each  visit  I  made  to  him.  I  first  treated  Paris  Wilson  April  1,  1907, 
for  Bright's  disease  of  the  kidneys.  He  was  not  able  to  do  anything 
at  that  time;  he  never  did  recover  from  this  stroke;  there  is  probably 
a  connection  between  the  Bright's  disease  from  which  he  was  suffering 
in  April,  1907,  and  the  stroke  of  paralysis  which  he  had  in  October  or 
November,  1907,  and  which  has  been  called  the  first  stroke." 

Q.  "In  your  opinion,  as  a  medical  man,  did  the  strokes  of  ap- 
oplexy in  October  and  November,  and  any  further  similar  strokes,  re- 
sult from  Bright's  disease?" 

A.     "That  was  the  original  cause,  yes,  sir." 

Q.  "In  your  opinion,  would  any  great  or  sudden  excitement  have  a 
tendency  to  hasten  a  stroke  of  apoplexy?" 

A.     "Yes,  sir." 

Q.  "Did  you  visit  Paris  Wilson  at  his  home  before  his  first 
attack." 

A.    "I  have  no  recollection  of  visiting  him  at  his  home  before  this 
attack. 

Q.  "Did  you  hear  on  the  date  of  his  first  stroke  something  about 
a  letter  having  been  shown  to  him?" 

A.    "Yes,  sir." 

Q.     "Did  that  letter  in  your  judgment  produce  the  stroke?" 

A.     "I  do  not  think  so." 

The  deposition  of  J.  R.  Bensall  states  in  substance  that  his  age  is 
49  years,  a  justice  of  the  peace,  member  of  South  Haven  Lodge,  was 
District  Deputy  in  1907-8;  know  Paris  Wilson;  don't  know  whether  his 
sickness  was  officially  reported  or  not  to  my  Lodge,  but  it  was  talked 
of  in  the  Lodge  room  among  the  members  and  notice  given  for  us  to 
visit  him.  (Does  not  state  from  whom  notice  was  received.)  I  visited 
him  with  Mr.  Parnell;   we  stayed  all  night;   it  was  either  the  latter

part  of  September  or  first  of  October,  1908;  Mr.  Parnell  was  a  member 
of  the  Lodge  here  at  that  time.  I  don't  remember  that  we  made  any 
official  report  but  we  notified  the  Lodge  he  was  crazy;  I  don't  know 
of  the  Lodge  taking  any  action." 

Statement  of  I.  E.  Wittum:  "Am  24  years  old,  occupation,  farmer; 
in  the  year  1907-8  I  lived  on  a  farm  about  one  mile  from  Paris  Wilson, 
Oklahoma.  Knew  Paris  Wilson  and  his  family  well  during  three 
years;  saw  Mr.  Wilson  probably  two  times  a  week.  In  the  fall  of  1907, 
probably  in  September  or  October,  he  had  a  paralytic  stroke  which 
disabled  him  to  quite  an  extent;  he  did  not  do  much  work  on  his  farm 
after  that  for  the  next  year;  was  not  able  to  do  any  hard  work,  but 
was  often  up  and  around,  but  was  not  well  any  of  the  time,  and  I  know 
was  not  able  to,  and  did  not  do  much  work  except  a  little  light  work; 
in  the  fall  of  1908  he  had  a  second  stroke,  and  after  that  was  not  able 
to  do  anything." 

Statement  of  James  J.  Berry:  "Am  an  Odd  Fellow,  member  of  the 
Odd  Fellows  Lodge  in  Table  Grove,  Illinois;  know  Paris  Wilson  and 
have  known  him  for  several  years;  he  married  a  sister  of  my  wife;  in 
the  months  of  May  and  June,  1909,  I  saw  him  several  times;  he  was 
in  Table  Grove  two  or  three  weeks  at  a  time  and  I  saw  him  often 
during  the  time  he  was  there.  He  was  at  my  home  on  two  or  three 
occasions;  at  this  time  Paris  Wilson  was  in  very  bad  condition  physi- 
cally. Not  able  to  do  any  work;  hardly  able  to  take  care  of  himself; 
he  had  a  stroke  of  paralysis  the  fall  before,  as  I  understood  while  he 
was  living  in  Oklahoma,  and  when  in  Table  Grove,  during  the  months 
of  May  and  June,  1909,  he  was  almost  a  wreck  physically  and  mentally, 
his  body  was  partly  paralyzed,  his  mind  affected,  entirely  unfitting  him 
from  attending  to  his  duties  as  a  farmer  or  any  other  business.  I  knew 
Wilson  before  .his  sickness  in  1908.  He  was  a  strong,  ablebodied  man; 
I  understood  and  believe  it  to  be  true  that  after  his  stroke  in  Septem- 
ber, 1908,  he  was  unable  to  do  work  of  any  kind.  He  was  a  very  sick 
man." 

Statement  of  T.  E.  Detrich:  "Age  46  years.  Am  a  farmer.  Live 
two  and  a  half  miles  south  of  Hunnewell,  Kansas.  In  1907  and  1908 
I  lived  within  less  than  a  mile  of  the  farm  of  Paris  Wilson  in  Okla- 
homa; knew  Wilson  and  his  family  well.  In  the  fall  of  1907  Wilson 
was  taken  sick;  had  a  paralytic  stroke  as  I  understood.  From  that 
time  till  the  fall  of  1908  I  saw  him  often,  once  a  week  at  least,  and 
visitPd  with  the  family.  Mr.  Wilson  was  not  able  to  do  much  work 
on  the  farm  after  his  first  stroke  and  he  did  not  do  much,  but  some 
light  work,  but  he  was  not  able  to  run  his  farm  alone  and  do  the  work. 
He  gradually  grew  worse  until  the  fall  of  1908,  when  he  had  another 
stroke  which  entirely  disabled  him.     He  had  hired  men  in  1908  to  do

his  work  and  he  only  did  light  work;  later  in  the  summer  of  1908  was 
able  to  do  very  little." 

The  foregoing  comprises  the  testimony  supporting  the  claimant. 
If  anything  has  been  omitted  it  is  purely  through  inadvei'tence. 

Testimony  on  the  part  of  the  Lodge: 

Statement  of  John  Wilson:  "Am  a  brother  of  Paris  Wilson;  lived 
near  him  in  Kay  county,  Oklahoma,  in  1907  and  1908.  Some  time  in 
October,  1907,  a  letter  which  had  been  written  by  Paris  Wilson  to  a 
woman  in  Peoria,  Illinois,  for  the  purpose  of  arranging  a  meeting  be- 
tween Paris  Wilson  and  said  woman  for  an  immoral  purpose  was  re- 
turned unopened  to  Paris  Wilson  and  was  upon  its  return  opened  and 
read  by  the  wife  of  Paris  Wilson.  Mrs.  Wilson  confronted  Paris  Wil- 
son with  said  letter  and  he  fell  to  the  floor.  Mrs.  Wilson  thereupon 
telephoned  affiant  to  come  at  once  to  the  home  of  Paris  Wilson; 
affiant  and  his  wife  at  once  went  and  Paris  Wilson's  wife  showed  said 
letter  to  affiant  and  affiant's  wife  and  stated  the  circumstances  as 
above  set  forth  in  explanation  of  the  condition  of  said  Paris  Wilson. 
That  the  trouble  growing  out  of  the  discovery  of  said  letter  caused 
Paris  Wilson  to  have  an  attack  resembling  paralysis.  Affiant  further 
states  that  upon  the  arrival  of  Dr.  Hollingsworth  affiant  met  the  doctor 
before  the  doctor  saw  Paris  Wilson  and  explained  the  matter  to  him, 
and  that  the  doctor  said  there  was  no  need  for  the  public  to  know  the 
facts  and  that  he  would  pronounce  it  something  so  that  no  one  outside 
of  the  family  need  know  of  the  letter." 

Affiant  further  states  that  within  a  short  time,  at  most  a  month, 
Paris  Wilson  recovered  from  said  attack  and  resumed  his  work  and 
duties  as  a  farmer  and  that  thereafter  until  the  9th  of  October,  when 
he  had  a  stroke  of  paralysis  from  which  he  did  not  recover,  he  worked 
on  the  farm  frequently  attending  his  business  as  he  had  before  the 
attack  of  October,  1907,  above  mentioned.  That  he  was  able  to  per- 
form his  various  duties  as  he  had  been  previous  to  the  attack  of  Oc- 
tober, 1907.  During  1908  and  prior  to  October  9th  of  that  year  Paris 
Wilson  plowed,  worked  in  the  hay  field  and  did  some  of  practically 
every  kind  of  farm  work.  He  seemed  as  able  to  work  as  the  ordinary 
man  of  his  age  and  was  mentally  able  to  transact  his  business  at  the 
time  of  the  stroke  in  October,  1908,  and  several  days  prior  thereto, 
he  was  working  in  the  hayfield.  He  did  his  banking  business  much  of 
that  time." 

Statement  of  Lizzie  Wilson,  who  is  the  wife  of  John  Wilson  and 
who  corroborates  the  statement  of  John  Wilson  in  toto,  so  that  it  is 
not  necessary  to  take  the  time  and  space  to  repeat  it. 

Statement  of  Price  Wilson:  Lives  near  Industry,  Illinois;  is  a 
brother  of  Paris  Wilson;  that  on  or  about  the  5th  day  of  April,  1908, 


2/6  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  ( „    Tuesday, 


)  Nov.    18.    1913. 


he,  affiant,  saw  and  talked  with  said  Paris  Wilson  and  that  said  Paris 
Wilson  was  then  in  good  health  bodily  and  mentally;  affiant  further 
says  that  on  the  first  Monday  of  October,  1908,  he  left  Macomb,  Illinois, 
for  Hunnewell,  Kansas,  that  he  arrived  at  Hunnewell  the  following 
night;  that  upon  the  day  following  his  arrival  at  Hunnewell  he  went 
to  see  said  Paris  Wilson;  that  he  did  see  him  and  found  him  in 
excellent  health;  that  said  Paris  Wilson  worked  in  the  hayfleld  that 
day  and  informed  affiant  that  his;  (Paris')  health  was  good.  Affiant 
further  says  that  on  Friday  following  his  arrival  in  Hunnewell,  to-wit, 
October  9,  1908,  Paris  Wilson  had  a  stroke  of  paralysis  from  which  he 
never  recovered. 

Statement  of  Frank  Wilson:  "Am  a  nephew  of  Paris  Wilson; 
during  the  period  from  January  1st  to  October  9th,  1908,  saw  Paris 
Wilson  frequently,  and  Paris  Wilson  frequently  did  work  on  the  farm; 
that  on  at  least  one  occasion  during  that  period  Wilson  assisted  in 
stacking  hay." 

Statement  of  B.  A.  Ellsworth:  That  he  has  known  Paris  Wilson 
for  many  years,  to-wit,  from  and  during  1907  to  1909.  That  affiant 
for  several  years,  including  the  last  half  of  1907  and  all  of  1908,  was  a 
U.  S.  mail  carrier  and  carried  the  mail  to  Paris  Wilson,  depositing  it  in 
a  box  about  a  half  mile  from  the  residence  of  Wilson;  that  some  time 
in  the  fall  of  1907  he  heard  that  Wilson  had  had  an  attack  of  sickness 
of  some  sort,  but  as  to  the  exact  nature  of  this  attack  he  knows  noth- 
ing, except  by  hearsay.  That  from  about  the  first  day  of  January, 
1908.  until  the  9th  day  of  October,  1908,  he  frequently  saw  and  talked 
with  said  Wilson,  whom  he  knew  well,  and  that  during  that  time  Wil- 
son often  walked  from  his  residence  to  the  mail  box  aforementioned; 
that  during  said  time  he  often  saw  Wilson  plowing  and  doing  other 
farm  work  such  as  no  sick  man  could  perform;  saw  Wilson  working  in 
the  hayfield  at  various  times  during  said  period;  that  during  the^many 
conversations  between  affiant  and  Wilson  during  said  period  the  mind 
of  Paris  Wilson  did  not  seem  impaired. 

Affiant  further  states  that  Mrs.  Wilson's  enmity  to  him  arises  out 
of  political  matters  in  which  he  believes  he  was  correct,  and  that  at 
her  instigation  he  was  arrested  and  fined  for  playing  cards  on  Sunday, 
which  is  an  offense  under  the  laws  of  Kansas;  that  he  was  playing 
"pitch"  with  a  few  friends  and  that  no  stakes  of  any  kind  were  being 
played  for,  and  that  he  was  not  gambling. 

Affiant  further  states  that  only  a  few  minutes  before  I.  E.  Wittum 
signed  his  affidavit  in  this  case,  he,  Wittum,  stated  in  the  presence  of 
Dr.  F.  B.  May  and  others  substantially  as  follows:  "That  during  the 
period  between  January  1st  and  October  9th,  1908,  Paris  Wilson  was 
able  to  do  his  work  and  attend  to  his  business  as  well  as  any  ordinary 
man  of  Paris  Wilson's  age,  and  that  in  his   (Wittum's)   opinion,  Wil- 


NovTU18dai913  }      GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  277 

son's  stroke  of  1908  was  brought  about  by  a  quarrel  Paris  Wilson  had 
while  he   (Wilson)  was  digging  a  ditch." 

Statement  of  F.  B.  May:  That  he  is  a  practicing  physician  living 
in  Hunnewell,  Kansas;  was  such  and  resided  in  said  town  during  all 
of  1907  and  since  then  to  the  present  time.  That  he  never  attended 
said  Paris  Wilson  professionally,  but  knew  him  well  and  often  saw 
him  and  talked  with  him  between  October  1,  1907,  and  October  8, 
1908,  which  dates,  as  affiant  understands  and  believes,  are  the  dates 
respectively  of  the  first  and  second  "strokes"  or  attacks  which  the  said 
Paris  Wilson  had.  He  remembers  the  fact  of  the  strokes  well  though 
he  could  not  of  his  own  knowledge  give  the  dates;  that  after  said  first 
stroke  he  saw  Paris  Wilson  and  observed  him  frequently;  that  he  is 
convinced  from  his  observation  that  within  a  month  at  least  from  said 
stroke  Wilson  was  able  to  attend  to  his  business  affairs  as  fully  as 
before  said  stroke;  that  he  could  do  his  farm  work  without  injury  to 
himself;  that  Wilson  was  frequently  in  Hunnewell  from  January  1st, 
to  October  9th,  1908;  that  he  did  not  see  any  reason  during  that  period 
to  regard  Wilson  as  a  sick  man. 

Affiant  further  states  that  this  morning  (date  of  affidavit  being 
May  13,  1912,)  he  heard  I.  E.  Wittum,  who,  as  affiant  is  informed,  made 
an  affidavit  in  this  case,  say  in  the  hearing  of  B.  A.  Ellsworth  and 
others  substantially  as  follows:  "That  during  the  period  of  between 
January  1st  and  October  9th,  1908,  Paris  Wilson  was  able  to  do  his 
work  and  attend  to  his  business  as  well  as  any  ordinary  man  of  Paris 
Wilson's  age,  and  that  in  his  (Wittum's)  opinion  Wilson's  stroke  of 
October  9,  1908,  was  brought  about  by  a  quarrel  Paris  Wilson  had 
while  he  (Wilson)  was  digging  a  ditch." 

Statement  of  F.  L.  Bivins:  That  in  the  summer  of  1909,  in  the 
month  of  May  or  June,  saw  Paris  Wilson  on  the  streets  of  Blandins- 
ville;  talked  with  him  and  his  wife  about  his  benefits;  told  them  that 
he  was  not  entitled  to  benefits  as  he  was  behind  with  his  dues;  she  said 
she  would  like  to  see  the  law  concerning  it;  I  being  Noble  Grand. at 
the  time,  went  to  the  Lodge  room,  got  the  code  and  read  it  to  her; 
she  said  if  that  was  the  law  that  there  was  no  use  for  her  to  pay  any 
more  dues  for  him  for  the  doctors  all  said  that  he  would  never  be  any 
better  for  he  was  suffering  a  stroke  of  paralysis  which  he  had  in 
October  of  1908,  and  she  herself  did  not  think  he  would  be  any  better. 

Statement  of  H.  K.  Prather:  "I  heard  a  letter  written  by  Mrs. 
Wilson  to  William  Plowwright  (Secretary  of  New  Hope  Lodge)  read  in 
open  Lodge  which  stated  in  part  as  follows:  'I  herewith  send  you 
$2.50  in  payment  of  Paris'  dues.  I  see  by  his  receipts  that  Paris  is

Statement  of  J.  C.  Green:  That  in  a  letter  written  by  Mrs.  Ella 
Wilson  to  William  Plowwright,  Secretary  of  New  Hope  Lodge,  Mrs. 
Wilson  stated  in  part  as  follows:  "I  see  by  your  letter  and  Paris'  re- 
ceipts that  Paris  is  not  in  good  standing,  but  as  soon  as  he  becomes 
beneficiary  we  will  expect  his  sick  benefits." 

The  statement  of  Paris  Wilson  in  account  with  New  Hope  Lodge 
from  January  22d,  1901,  to  January  1st,  1910,  prepared  by  J.  P.  Gil- 
lam,  Secretary,  on  November  24th,  1910,  when  analyzed,  shows  that 
during  that  period  Paris  Wilson  was  beneficiary  from  September  21, 
'01,  to  April  3,  '02,  not  beneficiary  from  April  4,  '02,  to  December  26, 
'02,  beneficiary  to  April  2,  '03,  not  beneficiary  from  April  3,  '03,  to 
August  4,  '03,  beneficiary  to  April  2,  '04,  not  beneficiary  from  April  3, 
'o4,  to  September  4,  '04,  beneficiary  to  April  2,  '05,  not  beneficiary  from 
April  3,  '05,  to  September  4,  '05,  beneficiary  from  September  4.  '05,  to 
April  2,  '07,  not  beneficiary  from  April  3,  '07,  to  August  4,  '07,  benefi- 
ciary to  September  30,  '08,  not  beneficiary  from  October  1,  '08,  to 
February  10,  '09,  beneficiary  to  September  30,  '10. 

The  foregoing  comprises  the  testimony  on  the  part  of  the  defense. 

In  rebuttal  on  the  part  of  the  claimant: 

Mrs.  Wilson  states  with  reference  to  the  letter  referred  to  that 
Paris  Wilson  did  not  have  this  paralytic  stroke  immediately,  but  did 
have  it  on  the  same  day,  and  that  she  does  not  think  that  the  letter 
had  anything  to  do  with  it;  that  John  Wilson  is  a  half-brother  of  her 
husband  and  that  there  is  bad  feeling  between  the  families;  he  and 
his  two  sons,  who  also  file  affidavits  in  this  case,  Frank  and  Glynn, 
do  not  visit  or  speak  to  us,  and  that  concerning  the  affidavit  of  B.  A. 
Ellsworth,  mail  carrier,  that  he  did  not  pass  our  house  and  did  not  see 
my  husband  often;  that  he  is  very  angry  at  me  for  I,  as  mayoress  of 
Hunnewell,  had  him  arrested  and  fined  for  playing  cards  in  violation 
of  our  laws. 

I.  E.  Wittum  also  states  that  he  has  heard  the  affidavit  of  B.  A. 
Ellsworth  and  F.  D.  May  read  as  to  what  he  said  to  them  and  states 
that  I  did  not  state  to  them  that  Paris  Wilson  was,  during  the  period 
from  January  1  to  October  9,  1908,  able  to  do  his  work  and  attend  to 
his  business  as  well  as  any  ordinary  farmer  of  his  age.  I  made  no 
statements  to  them  that  in  any  way  contradicts  the  statement  I  have 
sworn  to  in  my  original  affidavit. 

OPINION. 

The  evidence  on  the  part  of  the  claimant  in  this  case  fails  to  fix 
with  any  definiteness  (with  one  exception)  the  dates  of  either  of  the 
strokes  of  the  said  Paris  Wilson  occurring  in  1907  and  1908.    And  with-

out  intending  to  cast  any  reflections  upon  either  the  claimant  or  his 
counsel,  the  failure  on  the  part  of  the  claimant  to  fix  these  dates 
specifically,  in  our  judgment,  savors  somewhat  of  "side  stepping." 
The  testimony  on  the  part  of  the  Lodge  establishes  clearly  to  our 
minds  that  the  claimant,  Paris  Wilson,  practically  recovered  from  the 
stroke  of  1907,  that  is  to  say,  he  was  in  such  physical  condition  that 
no  Lodge,  in  our  opinion,  would  have  paid  him  benefits  from  within  a 
month  at  least  after  his  first  stroke  up  to  the  time  of  his  second  stroke. 

It  is  also  clearly  established  to  our  minds  from  all  of  the  evidence 
in  the  case  that  the  second  stroke  suffered  by  Paris  Wilson  was  on  the 
9th  day  of  October,  1908,  at  which  time  he  was  not  beneficiary  and 
could  not  have  become  so  until  the  expiration  of  thirteen  weeks  from 
October  1st,  1908. 

It  is  attempted  to  be  shown  by  the  statement  of  Mrs.  Wilson  that 
the  testimony  of  the  two  brothers,  John  and  Price,  and  also  of  the 
nephews,  resulted  from  prejudice  on  account  of  the  fact,  as  she  states, 
of  there  being  bad  feeling  between  the  families.  We  cannot  reconcile 
ourselves  to  the  conclusion  that  a  man  would  be  so  depraved,  no 
matter  what  his  feelings  might  be,  that  he  would  wilfully  swear  against 
his  brother  or  relative,  especially  in  view  of  the  fact  of  the  wrecked 
mental  and  physical  condition  of  Paris  Wilson  at  the  time  this  testi- 
mony was  given.  We  do  not  deem  it  necessary  to  discuss  the  law 
pertaining  to  this  case,  or  the  action  of  New  Hope  Lodge  from  the 
fact  that  the  evidence  alone  clearly  convinces  us  that  the  claimant 
has  no  right  to  recovery  in  this  case. 

It  is  therefore  ordered  that  the  action  of  New  Hope  Lodge  in 
rejecting  said  claim  be  sustained  and  that  said  appeal  be  and  is  hereby 
dismissed.

Opinion  by  Brother  Henry  Phillips,  of  No.  16. 

The  contention  in  this  case  is  that  Watson  Lodge  No.  321,  I.  O.  O. 
F.,  is  indebted  to  Bro.  Davis  for  sick  benefits.    "The  payment  of  weekly

benefits  to  sick  members  is  the  distinguishing  characteristic  of  our 
Order  and  may  be  regarded  as  the  fundamental  principle  of  Odd  Fel- 
lowship."    (Thornton's  Code,  Sec.  1470.) 

The  Constitution  of  the  Order  provides  a  Visiting  Committee  of 
three  members,  one  of  whom  shall  be  the  Noble  Grand,  whose  duty  it 
shall  be  to  keep  themselves  informed  at  all  times  as  to  the  condition 
of  a  brother  who  has  been  reported  sick.  They  shall  report  to  the 
Lodge  to  what  benefits  he  is  entitled.  The  brother  who  is  sick  is  thus 
fully  surrounded  with  full  and  ample  protection  so  far  as  his  sick 
benefits  are  concerned.  Should  the  Visiting  Committee  for  any  reason 
fail  to  be  informed  of  a  brother's  sickness,  the  brother  himself  can 
inform  the  Visiting  Committee  of  such  sickness,  and  he  can  do  this 
without  any  feeling  of  constraint,  for  his  sick  benefits  are  a  right  to 
which  he  is  entitled,  and  not  a  charity  in  any  sense  whatever.  The 
Lodge  is,  in  this  manner,  put  upon  its  duty  and  given  an  opportunity 
to  investigate  and  relieve,  and  the  sick  brother  fails  in  his  duty  if  he 
neglects  to  so  inform  his  Lodge.  It  is  wrong  for  a  brother  to  leave  the 
facts  of  his  sickness  depending  upon  the  mere  recollection  of  others, 
who  may  forget  in  a  short  time.  What  the  law  of  the  Order  provides 
for  and  demands  shall  be  made  a  matter  of  record  on  the  books  of  the 
Lodge.  In  this  case  there  is  no  evidence  of  any  kind  to  show  or  tend- 
ing to  show  that  during  the  whole  eight  weeks  for  which  Brother 
Davis  claims  sick  benefits,  his  Lodge  had  any  knowledge  whatever 
of  his  sickness.  There  can  be  no  reasonable  excuse  for  such  negli- 
gence on  the  part  of  Brother  Davis.  The  law  of  the  Order  gave  him 
the  opportunity  of  compelling  the  Lodge  to  do  its  duty  in  case  such 
duty  was  being  omitted  or  neglected.  The  Lodge  is  not  to  blame  for 
failing  to  do  that  which  it  has  no  knowledge  is  necessary  to  be  done. 

In  this  case  Brother  Davis  is  clearly  in  the  wrong  by  failing  to 
notify  his  Lodge,  and  thus  enabling  the  Lodge  to  protect  itself  from  a 
charge  of  a  neglect  or  failure  to  do  its  duty.  The  cases  are  few  indeed 
when,  if  the  brother  does  his  duty,  the  Lodge  fails  or  neglects  the 
faithful  performance  of  its  corresponding  duty. 

The  opinion  of  your  Committee  in  this  case  is  that  the  action  of 
the  Lodge  in  refusing  the  benefits  claimed  should  be  sustained  and  the 
appeal  dismissed,  and  it  is  so  ordered.

Lecture  Lodge  No.  563,  I.  O.  O.  F.  J      sion,  1913. 

Opinion  by  Brother  Henry  Phillips,  of  No.  16. 

Through  a  mistake  on  the  part  of  this  Committee  at  the  last 
session  of  the  Grand  Lodge,  at  Peoria,  this  case  was  examined  and 
passed  upon  without  the  hearing  on  the  part  of  Bro.  Crawford,  who 
was  represented  by  Bro.  Howard,  P.G.M.,  of  Paris,  Illinois,  and,  upon 
the  application  of  Bro.  Howard,  a  rehearing  was  granted. 

At  this  February  session  of  the  Committee,  both  Bro.  Crawford 
and  the  Lodge  being  represented  by  representatives  and  counsel,  the 
matter  was  again  heard  and  after  due  consideration  the  opinion  for- 
merly rendered  was  not  in  anywise  changed,  such  opinion  being  as 
follows: 

"This  is  a  case  involving  the  payment  of  sick  and  funeral  benefits 
and  funeral  expenses.  The  case  was  heard  in  Lecture  Lodge  and 
attorneys  appeared  representing  both  sides  of  the  case.  The  simple 
question  before  the  Lodge  was  whether  Brother  Crawford  was  in  good 
standing  at  the  time  his  sickness  began.  This  was  reported  to  the 
Lodge  by  the  Visiting  Committee  on  December  19,  1911.  The  record 
shows  that  Brother  Crawford  was  paid  up  to  September  30,  1911.  On 
December  9th  he  paid  his  arrearage. 

The  By-Laws  of  Lecture  Lodge  provide  as  follows:  'That  any 
brother  suffering  himself  to  become  in  arrears  for  dues  accruing 
during  a  period  of  more  than  thirteen  weeks,  shall  not  become  bene- 
ficiary for  a  period  of  thirty  days  from  payment  in  full  of  all  arrears 
for  dues,  fines  and  assessments  charged  to  his  account.'  By  virtue  of 
this  penalty  in  the  By-Laws  of  the  Lodge,  Brother  Crawford  did  not 
become  beneficiary  until  thirty  days  from  December  9th.  The  evi- 
dence shows  that  at  the  beginning  of  Brother  Crawford's  sickness  he 
was  not  beneficiary. 

The  case  was  heard  by  the  Lodge  and  a  vote  taken,  and  the  claim 
was  rejected  by  unanimous  vote.  Your  Committee,  finding  that  the 
brother  was  not  beneficiary,  sustains  the  action  of  the  Lodge.  It  is 
therefore  ordered  that  the  appeal  be  dismissed."

Pontiac  Lodge  No.  262,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  "\  Before    Committee   on   Judiciary

A.  E.  Stapelton.  j      sion,  1913. 

Opinion  by  Brother  Chester  M.  Turner,  of  No.  199. 

The  record  in  this  case  discloses  that  there  is  one  charge  of  dis- 
orderly conduct  preferred  against  the  defendant  brother;  but  the 
specific  charges  or  specifications  are  four  in  number,  each  charging 
a  separate  offense. 

The  minutes  of  the  Lodge  proceedings  during  the  trial  show  that 
there  was  but  one  vote,  apparently  covering  all  of  the  specifications. 
This  is  manifestly  an  error,  as  the  members  of  the  Lodge  should  have 
an  opportunity  to  say  whether  each  one  of  the  specifications  has  been 
proven,  and  if  one  has  been  proven  and  the  others  not,  this  should 
appear.  It  may  well  be  that  a  brother  after  hearing  the  evidence 
might  conclude  that  the  brother  was  guilty  on  one  of  the  specifications, 
and  not  desire  to  vote  him  guilty  on  all,  and  thus  vote  to  acquit  or  con- 
vict, as  the  case  might  be,  without  giving  to  each  specification  its 
proper  consideration. 

(111.  Code,  paragraph  1690.    Journal  of  1895,  page  70.) 

In  considering  this  case  the  Committee  do  not  deem  it  necessary 
to  at  this  time  discuss  the  merits  of  the  controversy. 

For  the  reasons  stated  above  this  case  is  remanded  to  Pontiac 
Lodge  with  instructions  to  call  together  the  brothers  entitled  to  vote 
at  the  trial,  and  submit  to  them  each  specification  separately  for  their 
decision.

This  is  an  appeal  from  the  judgment  and  action  of  Oregon  Lodge

L.  V.  Rumery,  a  member  of  said  Lodge.  The  Lodge  refusing  to  grant 
the  claim  for  benefits,  an  appeal  was  taken  to  the  Lodge  Deputy,  who 
so  reported  to  the  Lodge,  whereupon  the  Lodge  appointed,  through  its 
Noble  Grand,  a  commissioner  to  take  evidence  and  report  according  to 
law  to  the  Lodge. 

The  commissioner  proceeded  according  to  the  laws  of  the  Order, 
taking  the  evidence  in  deposition  form  of  nine  witnesses,  including 
the  appellant,  the  attending  physician,  the  Recording  and  Financial 
Secretaries  of  the  Lodge  and  five  members  of  the  Lodge  in  good  stand- 
ing. Both  parties  being  represented  by  attorneys  before  the  commis- 
sioner. 

This  evidence,  all  of  which  was  full  and  explicit,  was  read  to  the 
Lodge  in  regular  session  on  the  8th  of  November,  1912,  attorneys  for 
both  sides  being  present.  Also  28  members  of  the  Lodge  in  good  stand- 
ing and  entitled  to  vote. 

The  ballot  was  then  taken,  which  resulted  in  9  votes  for  Brother 
Rumery,  and  19  votes  against,  the  claim  being  rejected. 

On  November  15th,  in  regular  Lodge  meeting,  Brother  L.  V.  Rumery 
gives  notice  of  appeal  from  the  decision  of  the  Lodge  to  this  Committee, 
which  is  before  this  Committee  in  proper  form. 

Your  Committee  having  very  carefully  considered  all  the  evidence 
of  witnesses,  and  certified  copies  of  the  Lodge  records  pertaining  to 
this  case,  find  that  Brother  L.  V.  Rumery,  57  years  of  age,  a  member 
of  Oregon  Lodge  No.  94,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  for  more  than  25  years,  met  with 
an  accident  on  the  27th  day  of  June,  1911,  falling  out  of  a  tree,  break- 
ing his  left  arm,  above  the  elbow  near  the  shoulder,  which  wholly  in- 
capacitated him  from  attending  to  his  usual  business,  which  was  that 
of  general  grocery  business. 

The  evidence  of  Doctor  B.  A.  Cottlow,  his  attending  physician;  is 
very  clear  and  conclusive  as  to  the  character  of  the  injury,  and  that 
for  more  than  eight  weeks  he  was  unable  to  attend  to  his  usual  duties 
connected  with  his  business,  and  he  strongly  advised  him  to  make  no 
attempt  which  might  retard  recovery. 

The  evidence  given  by  some  of  the  Lodge  members  shows  that 
Brother  Rumery  had  the  use  of  his  right  arm,  that  during  the  time  for 
which  he  claims  benefits  he  frequently  was  seen  in  his  store,  and  that 
he  waited  upon  customers  for  articles  that  did  not  require  wrapping  up, 
such  as  cigars,  or  packages  that  required  no  wrapping  up,  that  he 
should  not  be  entitled  to  benefits,  and  this  according  to  evidence  is 
their  only  reason  for  denying  him  his  benefits.  Our  Order  does  not 
contemplate  such  technical  excuses  to  evade  the  just  rights  of  its 
members.

Your  Committee  are  clearly  of  the  opinion  that  if  there  was  ever 
a  case  of  justly  entitled  benefits  this  is  one  of  them. 

Opinion:  Appeal  sustained.  The  action  of  the  Lodge  set  aside, 
and  the  Lodge  directed  to  pay  to  Brother  L.  V.  Rumery,  for  eight 
weeks'  benefits,  in  amount  according  to  the  By-Laws  of  the  Lodge.

Opinion  by  Brotber  Henry  Phillips,  of  No.  16. 

This  case  comes  to  this  Committee  on  an  appeal  from  the  action  of 
the  Rebekah  Lodge  in  expelling  Sister  Lou  Cummins  as  a  member,  be- 
cause the  Lodge  found  her  guilty  of  the  following  charges: 

1st.  Sister  Lou  Cummins  of  this  Lodge  had  dropped  members 
contrary  to  the  law  and  other  charges  based  upon  statements  made 
in  letters    to   the   Grand   Master. 

2d.  Complaint  is  found  to  be  true,  having  read  the  copy  of  the 
letter  she  wrote  to  Brother  Hubbard. 

3d.  Complaint  is  found  to  be  true,  having  looked  over  the 
Financial  Secretary's  book,  we  find  each  of  the  Brubecks  owed  the 
Lodge  $4.15,  or  three  years,  five  and  one-half  month's  dues,  but  that 
the  last  five  and  one-half  months  prior  to  them  dropped  had  not  been 
charged. 

4th.  Complaint  No.  4  is  sustained.  The  ballot  box  was  the  same 
one  used  since  the  Lodge  was  instituted. 

5th.  Complaint  No.  5  is  found  false,  so  far  as  the  M.  W.  Staples 
trying  to  run  the  Rebekah  Lodge  in  the  ground. 

6th.  Complaint  No.  6  is  sustained.  She  first  said  she  would  not 
recognize  him  as  an  officer,  but  if  he  takes  the  office  he  would  have 
to  put  on  petticoats.  We  therefore  find  her  guilty  of  defying  the 
Ledge  as  the  election  was  by  acclamation. 

There  is  evidently  considerable  feeling  in  the  matter,  but  we  are 
called  upon  simply  to  decide  under  the  law  whether  the  charges 
which  the  defendant  is  called  upon  to  answer  are  proper  and  whether 
the  penalty  is  just.  In  the  opinion  of  this  Committee  the  charges 
which  a  member  of  a  Lodge  may  be  called  upon  to  answer  should  be 
clear  and  specific  so  that  the  accused  may  have  opportunity  for  an- 
swering them. 


286  rOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  1  N^v  "is^vtl0. 

In  the  present  case  the  charges  as  will  be  seen  are  entirely  in- 
sufficient. No  specifications  whatever  are  given.  It  would  have  been 
impossible  for  the  accused  to  have  made  any  defense.  In  charge  No.  1 
it  is  alleged  that  the  accused,  who  was  Recording  Secretary,  secured 
the  suspension  for  non-payment  of  dues  of  certain  members  illegally. 
The  particulars  of  this  alleged  improper  suspension  are  not  given. 
The  evidence  shows  that  these  parties  were  in  arrears  for  dues  to  an 
amount  sufficient  to  justify  their  suspension. 

Considering  the  charges  entirely  insufficient  upon  which  to  base 
the  extreme  penalty  of  expulsion,  the  Committee  is  of  the  opinion 
that  the  action  of  the  Lodge  should  be  set  aside.  Even  though  the 
evidence  fully  supported  the  charges  made,  it  would  not  be  sufficient 
to  justify  expulsion. 

It  is  therefore  ordered  that  the  action  of  the  Lodge  be  set  aside 
and  that  Sister  Lou  Cummins  be  restored  to  membership  in  the  Lodge.

CASE  NO.  443. 


America  Lodge  No.  920,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  -\    Before   Committee  on  Judiciary 
vs.  y       and  Appeals. 

K.  A.  Flagg.  j    August  Session,  1913. 

Opinion  by  Brother  Henry  Phillips,  of  No. 16. 

This  case  comes  on  appeal  from  three  members  of  America  Lodge, 
located  at  Sherman,  seven  miles  north  of  Springfield.  The  charges  and 
trial  are  the  outgrowth  of  difficulties  resulting  from  the  organization  of 
a  new  Lodge  at  Sberman. 

In  1908  the  building  occupied  by  America' Lodge  was  destroyed 
by  fire.  Brother  Flagg,  the  accused,  was  at  that  time  Noble  Grand 
of  the  Lodge.  In  company  with  the  Trustees  Brother  Flagg  went  to 
Springfield  and  assisted  in  renting  a  Lodge  room  in  a  building  owned 
by  the  Reisch  Brewing  Co.  No  written  lease  was  made.  The  agent 
of  the  owner,  Mr.  Gus  Maurer,  rented  the  room  to  America  Lodge 
month  by  month,  at  a  rental  of  $5.00.  It  was  agreed  that  the  rent 
should  be  paid  for  the  Lodge  by  Brother  Flagg.  This  was  done  for 
about  three  years.  All  receipts  for  rent  are  shown  in  the  record  and 
were  to  America  Lodge  No.  920.  After  his  retirement  as  Noble  Grand 
in  April,  1910,  Brother  Flagg  was  elected  a  Trustee  of  said  Lodge  and 
his  name  recorded  as  such  in  the  recorder's  office  of  Sangamon  county. 
Thereupon  he  entered  upon  the  performance  of  the  duties  of  that 
office.  This  position  he  continued  to  hold  until  May  22,  1911,  when  his 
successor  was  duly  elected  and  qualified. 

The  record  shows  that  the  Lodge  room  was  rented  to  other  bodies 
when  not  occupied  by  America  Lodge  and  that  Brother  Flagg  received 
such  rentals  and  paid  the  Reisch  Brewing  Co.  for  the  Lodge.  Some 
time  about  May  1,  1911,  Brother  Flagg  went  to  the  owner  of  the  build- 
ing and  had  the  verbal  lease  to  the  Lodge  room  cancelled  and  rented 
it  in  his  own  name.     He  paid  the  rent  in  advance  for  the  months  of 


NovTU18dai913  I       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  289 

May  and  June.  The  accused  represented  to  the  owner  that  a  new 
Lodge  was  about  to  be  organized  and  that  it  would  meet  on  Friday 
night  and  America  Lodge  would  continue  to  meet  on  Monday.  Brother 
Flagg  told  Mr.  Maurer,  the  agent  of  the  building,  that  this  arrange- 
ment was  satisfactory  to  America  Lodge.  The  fact  was  that  America 
Lodge  knew  nothing  about  the  change  until  May  22d,  when  the 
accused  appeared  at  the  Lodge  and  announced  that  he  had  rented  the 
Lodge  room  in  his  own  name.  He  showed  a  letter  from  the  agent  con- 
trolling the  building,  confirming  his  statement. 

The  testimony  of  Brother  Flagg  on  this  point  is  as  follows:  (See 
page  70-1  Record.)  "After  I  read  the  letter  I  asked  them  to  deliver 
the  keys  over  to  me  in  'friendship,  love  and  truth.'  I  told  them  that 
their  meeting  night  was  not  going  to  be  interfered  with  in  any  way, 
shape  or  form,  that  they  could  use  the  room  Monday  night  just  the 
same  as  heretofore,  and  they  could  use  the  regalia  room  until  the  new 
Lodge  got  their  paraphernalia  and  then  we  would  want  it,  and  they 
could  have  the  use  of  the  hall  for  the  use  by  the  other  lodges  using 
their  furniture,  and  I  would  furnish  light,  heat  and  fuel.  Brother  Cox 
said  he  would  fight  the  key  question  to  the  finish.  I  made  a  remark  to 
him  that  if  they  wanted  to  force  me  into  a  law  suit  they  could  have 
one.  Brother  Cooper  gets  up  and  says  shoot  your  gun.  I  might  have 
said  in  my  talk  that  I  knew  where  I  stood  "all  the  time,  what  I  meant 
by  that  was  that  I  knew  of  the  understanding  that  I  had  with  Mr. 
Maurer  where  I  stood.  That  was  on  the  22d  of  May.  I  didn't  answer 
Mr.  Cooper  on  the  15th  because  I  had  no  writing  to  show  my  under- 
standing with  Mr.  Maurer."  Immediately  thereafter  the  Trustees  and 
other  members  of  America  Lodge  went  to  see  the  agent  of  the  build- 
ing and  earnestly  protested  against  the  invasion  of  the  Lodge's  rights 
by  being  ousted  without  its  knowledge  or  consent.  Finding  that  he 
had  been  deceived  by  Brother  Flagg  and  that  the  change  from  the 
Lodge  to  the  accused  was  very  unsatisfactory,  Mr.  Maurer  at  once 
gave  written  notice  to  K.  A.  Flagg  terminating  the  lease  on  July  31, 
1911,  the  date  to  which  rent  had  been  paid.  Thereupon,  America  Lodge 
No.  920  continued  to  occupy  the  building  as  heretofore.  Not  long  after- 
ward this  building  was  consumed  by  fire  and  the  Lodge  was  again 
homeless. 

On  May  8,  1911,  the  accused  asked  for  and  received  a  withdrawal 
card.  It  was  granted  on  the  same  night  the  request  was  made.  The 
two  conditions  prescribed  in  Section  1848  of  the  Code  for  granting  the 
card  on  the  night  application  is  made  were  not  met.  However,  for  the 
purposes  of  this  case  under  Section  1495  the  contention  of  the  parties 
is  not  material.  The  card  was  issued  and  the  Lodge  had  unquestioned 
disciplinary  jurisdiction  over  the  accused  at  that  time.     The  Lodge 

—19

I  Nov.    is.    in1,:'.. 


by  vote  revoked  the  card.   This  also  is  immaterial  as  the  Lodge  under 
many  decisions  had  jurisdiction  during  the  life  of  the  card. 

Complaint  was  made  to  the  Noble  Grand  of  America  Lodge  and 
charges  and  specifications  were  preferred. 

The  appellant  Lodge  abandoned  all  the  specificatiuns  except  the 
following:  "'That  said  K.  A.  Flagg  did,  while  acting  as  Trustee  of  said 
Lodge,  rent  said  hall  in  his  own  right  and  give  notice  to  America  Lodge 
and  the  members  thereof  that  he  had  so  done  and  he  then  and  there 
proceeded  to  collect  rents  from  other  Lodges  using  said  hall.  By 
means  whereof  your  committee  charge  that  K.  A.  Flagg  did  attempt  to 
defraud  America  Lodge  No.  920  of  its  hall  and  the  uses  and  privileges 
thereof,  as  aforesaid." 

On  this  Brother  Flagg  went  to  trial.  Change  of  venue  was  granted 
to  the  accused  and  the  case  was  sent  to  Springfield  Lodge  No.  465. 
On  July  14,  1913,  the  case  was  tried.  There  were  eighteen  members 
present  and  entitled  to  vote.  The  result  was  eight  for  conviction  and 
ten  for  acquittal.  From  this  decision  this  appeal  has  been  taken  by 
three  members  of  America  Lodge  No.  920. 

The  record  in  this  case  is  very  large,  there  being  141  pages.  It 
is  proper  to  say,  however,  that  it  all  comes  in  excellent  shape.  Though 
there  is  a  mass  .of  evidence,  objections  and  counter  objections,  many 
technicalities  and  trifling  contentions,  yet  the  issue  is  a  simple  one. 
Fortunately  there  is  practically  no  disagreement  between  litigants  and 
counsel  as  to  the  facts  as  shown  by  the  evidence. 

Your  Committee  has  gone  over  the  entire  record  thoroughly  and 
has  given  attorneys  unlimited  time  for  oral  argument.  A  single  ques- 
tion is  involved.  Did  Brother  K.  A.  Flagg,  while  a  Trustee  and  agent 
af  America  Lodge,  violate  "the  principles  of  the  Order  or  of  its  special 
obligations?"  It  is  clear  from  the  record  that  Brother  Flagg  sought  by 
sharp  practice  to  oust  the  Lodge  from  the  room  it  had  occupied  for 
about  three  years  and  secure  possession  and  control  of  the  same  for 
himself.  By  deception  and  misrepresentation  he  succeeded  in  doing 
this  for  two  months.  He  would  have  continued  in  possession  and  con- 
trol if  Mr.  Maurer  had  not  acted  upon  principles  of  fairness  and  justice. 
As  one  who  is  not  an  Odd  Fellow  his  action  is  in  striking  contrast  with 
the  scheme  of  deception  and  double  dealing  practiced  by  the  accused 
who  professed  to  act  with  the  Lodge  in  "Friendship,  Love  and  Truth." 
(See  record  page  70.)  He  said  this  in  connection  with  his  demand 
for  the  keys. 

Again  Brother  Flagg  said  (See  page  71)  "that  they  (the  Lodge) 
could  use  the  room   Monday  night  just  the  same  as  heretofore  and 


Tuesday  }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  2QI 


Xov.    18,    1913.  f 


they  could  use  the  regalia  room  until  the  new  Lodge  got  their  para- 
phernalia and  then  we  would  want  it  and  they  could  have  the  use  of 
the  hall  for  the  use  by  the  other  Lodges  using  their  furniture,"  etc. 

Again  Brother  Flagg  said  if  the  "friendship,  love  and  truth"  plan 
did  not  work  "that  if  they  wanted  to  force  me  into  a  law  suit  they 
could  have  one." 

Here  was  the  cool  proposition  to  take  from  this  Lodge  without  its 
knowledge  and  consent  its  place  of  meeting  after  three  years  of 
occupancy  satisfactory  to  the  owner.  The  agent  of  the  Lodge  while 
he  was  yet  a  Trustee,  his  successor  not  having  been  selected,  secures 
a  lease  of  the  Lodge  room  in  his  own  right.  He  will  dictate  terms  and 
will  soon  deprive  the  Lodge  of  its  regalia  room.  He  generously  offers 
to  allow  America  Lodge  to  use  its  own  furniture  and  rent  its  use  to 
other  bodies. 

What  was  the  duty  of  an  Odd  Fellow,  acting  on  the  principles  of 
"friendship,  love  and  truth?"  It  was  to  defend  the  Lodge  and  protect 
its  interests.  Here  was  a  man  in  a  village  of  108  people  conspiring 
to  organize  a  rival  Lodge  and  by  underhand  methods  take  from  the 
Lodge  of  which  he  was  a  member,  agent  and  Trustee,  its  place  of 
meeting,  the  only  one  in  the  village.  To  avoid  action  by  the  Lodge  he 
sought  and  obtained  a  withdrawal  card,  overlooking  the  law  that  dur- 
ing the  life  of  the  card  he  was  amenable  to  his  Lodge.  He  did  not 
resign  as  Trustee  or  agent  in  managing  the  business  of  the  Lodge, 
collecting  rents  from  other  lodges  and  paying  the  Lodge's  rent  to 
the  owner  of  the  building.  While  acting  in  that  capacity  he  sought  to 
injure  the  Lodge  by  supplanting  it  as  a  tenant.  Afterward  the  record 
shows  that  he  rendered  an  account  to  America  Lodge  of  moneys  col- 
lected and  paid  out  and  tendered  the  balance  he  showed  to  be  due. 
The  Lodge  refused  to  accept  it.  In  the  record  it  appears  that  the 
accused  went  to  an  attorney  employed  by  the  Lodge  in  this  case  and 
secured  his  services  in  a  civil  suit  in  the  Sangamon  County  Circuit 
Court  involving  precisely  the  same  state  of  facts  as  are  in  this  case  in 
the  Lodge. 

There  is  no  need  to  refer  to  the  ethics  of  an  attorney  who  would 
thus  accept  employment.  He  is  not  a  party  to  this  case.  It  could 
hardly  escape  notice,  however,  that  for  the  accused  to  employ  the 
Lodge's  attorney  so  that  he  could  not  further  care  for  its  interests  is 
not  an  act  in  accordance  with  the  principles  of  the  Order  or  its  obli- 
gations. 

Your  Committee  for  the  reasons  given  and  upon  undisputed  evi- 
dence are  unanimously  of  the  opinion  that  Brother  K.  A.  Flagg  is  guilty 
under  the  charge  made  of  conduct  unbecoming  an  Odd  Fellow.

It  is  therefore  ordered  that  the  action  of  Springfield  Lodge  No. 
465  be  reversed. 

It  is  further  ordered  that  Brother  K.  A.  Flagg  be  suspended  from 
all  the  rights  and  privileges  of  an  Odd  Fellow  for  six  months  from 
August  the  19th,  1913,  and  that  Springfield  Lodge  enter  this  order  on

Under  the  section  sought  to  be  amended  Grand  Lodge  Officers  are 
elected  in  the  Grand  Lodge,  and  under  Sec.  1  of  Art.  Ill,  the  Grand 
Lodge  is  composed  of  "one  representative  (who  must  be  a  Past  Grand 
in  good  standing)  from  each  of  the  Lodges  of  this  State,  and  all  other 
Past  Grands  in  good  standing  of  Lodges  of  this  jurisdiction." 

The  right  of  Past  Grands  to  vote  for  Grand  Officers  is  a  vested 
right  and  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  cannot  deprive  them  of  it.  See 
Busbee's  Digest,  707,  739,  1531,  1532  and  1537. 

For  the  foregoing  reason  I  return  said  amendment  without  my 
approval. 

Yours  fraternally,

Proposed  Fire-Proof  Building  for  Grand  Secretary's  Office 
Journal,  1912,  Doc.  No.  25. 

RESOLUTION. 

Whereas,  The  Grand  Lodge  of  this  State  was  chartered  in  the  year 
1838;  and, 

Whereas,  Our  Grand  Lodge  records  are  intact;   and, 

Whereas,  The  records  of  many  Subordinate  Lodges  have  been  de- 
stroyed by  fire  and  the  only  record  of  such  Lodges  and  their  members 
is  in  the  Grand  Secretary's  office;  and, 

Whereas,  In  case  of  fire  and  the  destruction  of  our  records  the 
same  could  never  be  duplicated  or  restored;   and, 

Whereas,  The  building  in  which  our  Grand  Secretary's  office  is 
now  located  is  not  fireproof;  and, 

Whereas,  The  office  of  the  Grand  Secretary  should  be  located  at 
the  capital  of  the  State,  regardless  of  the  residence  of  the  Brother  who 
fills  that  position;  and, 

Whereas,  The  loss  of  our  records  would  be  of  irreparable  damage 
to  our  Order;  and, 

Whereas,  The  growth  of  our  Order  has  been  so  great  that  it  is 
necessary  that  a  permanent  building  should  be  erected;   and, 

Whereas,  It  has  been  estimated  that  a  suitable  location  could  be 
secured  outside  the  business  district  of  Springfield  and  a  fireproof 
building  erected  for  Fifteen  Thousand  Dollars  ($15,000)  and  nol  to 
exceed  Twenty  Thousand  Dollars  ($20,000)  at  the  most;  and, 

Whereas,  This  matter  is  of  such  vital  importance  to  our  Order; 
be  it 

Resolved,  That  the  Grand  Lodge  secure  a  suitable  location  'n  the 
city  of  Springfield  and  erect  a  fireproof  building,  to  be  used  for  the 
Grand   Secretary's   office   and   the   preservation   of   our   Grand   Lodge

records,  at  an  expense  not  to  exceed  the  sum  of  Twenty  Thousand 
Dollars  ($20,000).     Be  it  further 

Resolved,  That  the  sum  of  Twenty  Thousand  Dollars  ($20,000), 
or  so  much  thereof  as  may  be  necessary,  be  appropriated  for  the 
erection  of  said  building;  be  it  further 

Resolved,  That  a  special  Building  Committee  be  appointed,  con- 
sisting of  the  incoming  Grand  Master,  Grand  Secretary-elect,  Grand 
Treasurer  and  the  three  (3)  members  of  the  Finance  Committee,  to 
secure  a  location  for  the  building  aforesaid,  prepare  the  plans  and 
cause  to  be  erected  the  building  hereinbefore  designated. 

Was  read  and  referred  to  Committee  on  Finance. 

Journal*   1912,   Doc.   No.   139. 

To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  O.  F.: 

Your  Committee  on  Finance  would  respectfully  report  as  follows: 
On  the  resolution  of  Brother  James  Ewing  Davis  and  the  com- 
munication from  the  Springfield  Commercial  Association,  concerning 
the  building  of  a  permanent  office  for  the  Grand  Secretary,  with  fire- 
proof vaults  for  the  preservation  of  our  records.  Your  committee  fully 
agree  with  the  resolution  of  Brother  Davis,  that  our  Order  needs  badly 
a  good  fireproof  building  in  order  to  preserve  our  records,  and  that 
in  view  of  their  great  value  to  our  Order  we  ought  not  delay  longer 
the  building  of  such  fireproof  vaults.  Last  year  the  Grand  Lodge 
passed  a  resolution  inviting  different  places  to  submit  propositions  to 
us  for  such  a  building.  No  offer  or  proposition  was  received  by  us 
except  the  communication  from  the  Springfield  Commercial  Associa- 
tion, which  states  that  it  is  interested  in  having  such  a  building 
erected  in  Springfield,  and  asking  us  to  give  them  further  information 
as  to  what  we  desire  and  what  we  need. 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  our  lease  on  the  offices  now  occupied  by 
our  Grand  Secretary  has  expired,  and  only  been  renewed  for  one  year, 
prompt  action  is  necessary. 

Your  committee  therefore  recommend  that  the  resolution  of 
Brother  Davis  be  adopted,  and  that  such  a  building  be  erected  in 
Springfield  at  a  cost  not  to  exceed  $20,000,  including  the  ground,  pro- 
vided, the  city  of  Springfield  will  contribute  the  sum  of  $5,000.  We 
further  recommend  that  in  case  said  city  pays  into  the  hands  of  our 
Grand  Treasurer  the  said  sum  of  $5,000,  that  there  be  appropriated 
from  our  funds  the  sum  of  $15,000,  or  so  much  thereof  as  may  be  need- 
ed to  complete  said  building,  $5,000  thereof  to  be  paid  in  1913,  $5,000 
to  be  paid  in  1914,  and  $5,000  to  be  paid  in  1915.     This  your  committee 


NovTU18dai913  }       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  0.  0.  F.  2Q7 

believe  can  be  done  without  raising  our  per  capita  tax  above  $1.00  per 
year. 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  our  present  lease  on  the  offices  now  occu- 
pied by  our  Grand  Secretary  will  expire  during  the  year,  we  also 
recommend  if  this  building  is  not  ready  to  occupy  during  the  year,  the 
Grand  Secretary  be  authorized  to  make  such  lease  of  said  offices  as  he 
may  find  necessary,  not  exceeding  one  year. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Signed  by  the  Committee. 

On  motion,  action  on  this  resolution  was  postponed  for  one  year 
and  that  the  resolution  be  submitted  to  the  Subordinate  Lodges  for  a 
referendum  vote  upon  the  question,  offers  being  received  prior  thereto 
from  any  and  all  cities  in  this  jurisdiction.     Motion  was  carried. 

(The  above  resolution  was  not  submitted  to  Subordinate  Lodges 
for  a  referendum  vote  for  the  reason  that  no  offers  were  received, 
other  than  the  following  from  the  Springfield  Commercial  Association) :

Dollars   ($5,000).

Mr.  J.  H.  Sikes,  Grand  Secretary,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  I.  O.  O.  F.  Bldg.,  City. 

Dear  Mr.  Sikes — In  regard  to  the  proposed  erection  of  a  fireproof 
building  in  the  city  of  Springfield,  to  be  used  for  the  Grand  Secretary's 
offices  of  the  I.  O.  O.  F.,  for  the  preservation  of  Grand  Lodge  records 
and  for  which  an  appropriation  of  Twenty  Thousand  Dollars  was  rec- 
ommended by  your  Finance  Committee,  in  Document  No.  139,  provided 
the  city  of  Springfield  would  contribute  the  sum  of  Five  Thousand 
Dollars. 

Will  say  that  this  matter  was  brought  to  the  attention  of  the 
Board  of  Directors  of  the  Springfield  Commercial  Association  at  a 
regular  meeting,  at  which  time  a  motion  was  introduced  and  unani- 
mously carried  that  the  sum  of  Five  Thousand  Dollars  be  raised  by 
this  Association  to  assist  in  the  construction  of  a  permanent  building, 
for  the  Secretary's  headquarters  in  this  city. 

The  following  extract  from  the  minutes  of  the  Board  meeting 
held  June  17th  is  sent  for  your  information  and  guidance: 

"A  communication  was  received  from  Mr.  J.  H.  Sikes,  Grand 
Secretary  of  the  I.  O.  O.  F.,  in  which  a  request  was  made  from  this 
Association  for  $5,000  to  assist  in  the  construction  of  a   permanent

building  for  the  Secretary's  headquarters  in  this  city.  A  motion  was 
made  by  Mr.  Conkling  that  $5,000  be  raised  for  this  purpose  and  that 
President  Holbrook  confer  with  Secretary  Sikes  in  regard  to  the  mat- 
ter.    The  motion  unanimously  carried."

time. 

Sec.  5.  At  the  last  regular  meeting  of  each  Subordinate  Lodge  in 
the  month  of  July,  the  Past  Grands  in  good  standing  of  such  Lodge

shall  be  furnished  by  the  Secretary  with  a  list  of  all  Past  Grands  of 
the  Lodge  who  are  not  more  than  thirteen  weeks  in  arrears  for  dues, 
and  no  Past  Grand  shall  be  permitted  to  vote  whose  name  does  not 
appear  in  said  list;  provided,  if  any  Past  Grand  whose  name  has  been 
omitted  shall  pay  his  dues  so  as  to  make  him  less  than  thirteen  weeks

receipt  to  that  effect,  to  have  his  name  added  to  said  list  and  to  cast

Grand  shall  appoint  two  tellers  from  among  the  members  of  the  Lodge, 
and  thereupon  declare  the  ballot  open,  and  the  same  shall  remain 
open  until  the  order  of  business  of  "Good  of  the  Order"  shall  have

tellers,  assisted  by  the  Secretary,  and  under  the  supervision  of  the 
Noble  Grand,  shall  count  the  votes  in  open  Lodge  and  announce  the 
result,  and  a  record  thereof  shall  be  entered  upon  the  minutes.     The

Noble  Grand,  Secretary  and  Tellers  shall,  on  the  same  evening,  make 
an  abstract  in  triplicate  of  the  votes  cast  for  each  candidate,  attach 
their  signatures  and  the  seal  of  the  Lodge  to  same,  and  immediately 
transmit  one  copy  of  said  abstract  to  the  Grand  Master  and  one  copy 
to  the  Grand  Secretary  (and  the  Grand  Secretary  shall  retain  these 
abstracts  unopened  until  after  the  last  day  upon  which  abstracts  may 
be  sent  in,  or  August  1st).  The  Secretary  of  the  Lodge  shall  retain

Committee  en  Returns  at  the  next  session  of  that  body.  The  Grand 
Secretary  shall,  at  the  following  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge,  deliver

Sec.  6.  The  Grand  Master  shall,  on  the  second  Tuesday  in  August, 
call  to  his  assistance  three  disinterested  Past  Grands,  residents  of 
the  city  in  which  the  Grand  Master  resides,  and  proceed  to  open  and 
count  the  votes  for  Grand  Officers.  If  any  of  the  returns  shall  be 
irregular,  or  want  any  of  the  requisites  prescribed  in  Section  5,  the 
Grand  Master  shall  immediately  transmit  said  irregular  returns  to 
the  Lodge  or  Lodges  making  said  irregular  returns,  and  call  attention 
to  the  irregularities,  and  request  the  correction  of  the  same.  After 
having  canvassed  all  correct  returns  and  transmitted  (if  there  be  any) 
said  irregular  returns  as  above  prescribed,  said  board  of  canvassers 
shall  adjourn  to  a  future  date,  not  less  than  fifteen  nor  more  than 
thirty  days,  when  they  shall  meet  and  complete  the  canvass.  The 
Past  Grands  having  the  highest  number  of  votes  shall  be*  declared 
duly  elected  to  the  offices  for  which  they  were  respectively  nominated. 
In  the  "event  of  a  tie  vote,  the  candidate  receiving  the  votes  of  the 
largest  number  of  Subordinate  Lodges  shall  be  declared  elected.  In 
the  event  of  death,  removal  or  declination  of  the  candidate  otherwise 
to  be  declared  elected,  the  candidate  receiving  the  next  highest  num- 
ber of  votes  shall  be  declared  elected.  The  Grand  Master  shall,  imme- 
diately after  the  vote  has  been  canvassed,  certify  the  result  of  the 
count  to  the  Grand  Secretary,  who  shall  notify  the  candidates  of  their 
election. 

Sec.  7.  The  returns  from  the  several  Lodges,  together  with  the 
tally  sheet,  properly  certified  to  by  the  Grand  Master  and  his  assist- 
ants, shall  be  sealed  up  and  returned  to  the  Grand  Lodge  at  the  com- 
mencement of  its  next  session,  for  revision  and  the  correction  of 
errors,  if  any  be  found  therein.  Such  returns,  together  with  duplicate 
returns  held  by  the  Grand  Secretary,  shall  be  referred  to  the  Commit- 
tee on  Returns,  who  shall  carefully  examine  the  same  and  report  to 
the  Grand  Lodge.

the  two-year  terms,  he  may  not  be  a  candidate  in  both  classes,  but 
must  state  in  his  acceptance  the  term  for  which  his  acceptance  is 
filed.

THE     FOLLOWING     WERE     THE     REPORTS     CONCERNING     OUR 

JURISDICTION. 

Illinois — John  H.  Sikes,  Grand  Secretary,  writes:  "Odd  Fellowship 
in  Illinois  has  suffered  a  slight  reaction  in  growth  during  the  year  1912. 
The  net  gain  in  Subordinate  membership  for  the  past  year  is  2,205,  and 
the  net  gain  in  Rebekah  membership  is  3,346.  Doubtless  the  political 
campaign  and  business  conditions  generally  have  had  something  to  do 
with  the  growth  of  the  Order  during  the  past  year.  We  are  holding 
many  schools  of  instruction  throughout  the  Jurisdiction  with  splendid 
results.  Onr  instruction  is  largely  directed  to  a  better  understanding 
and  exemplification  of  the  degrees  of  the  Order.  We  find  this  is  the 
weak  link  among  our  Lodges.  Wherever  a  Lodge  is  prepared  to  put  on 
the  degrees  of  the  Order  intelligently  and  impressively,  the  organiza-

tion  grows.  We  have  a  number  of  splendid  instructors  in  staff  work 
and  our  Lodges  are  doing  better  work  each  year.  We  have  issued  a 
large  amount  of  printed  matter  in  Illinois,  setting  forth  Odd  Fellowship 
in  its  various  phases1.  We  have  issued  a  beautiful  souvenir,  'Our 
Homes,'  which  has  had  a  large  circulation  throughout  the  Jurisdiction. 
We  have  issued  a  number  of  pamphlets  on  Odd  Fellowship,  the  latest 
of  which  is  a  sixteen  page  folder,  of  which  we  have  had  nearly  100,000 
printed.  These  folders  are  for  free  distribution  and  have  done  good 
work  for  Odd  Fellowship.  We  have  just  completed  a  beautiful  little 
book  of  ninety  pages,  entitled  'History  of  Our  Homes,  I.  O.  O.  F.' 
This  is  a  compilation  of  all  matter  pertaining  to  our  Homes  from  the 
earliest  action  taken  along  this  ilne.  We  are  satisfied  in  Illinois  that 
a  judicious  use  of  printers'  ink  can  be  used  to  further  the  interests 
of  Odd  Fellowship.  We  are  anticipating  a  splendid  growth  during  the 
year  1913." 

Sam  J.  Baker,  Grand  Scribe,  writes:  "In  submitting  the  annual 
report  of  the  Grand  Encampment  of  Illinois  it  gives  pleasure  to  add 
that  conditions  remain  good  in  the  Jurisdiction.  Our  growth,  as  you 
will  see,  has  been  one  that  indicates  activity  on  the  part  of  the  en- 
campments and  shows  the  personal  efforts  of  the  Grand  Encampment 
officers  have  proven  effectual  in  building  up  Patriarchal  Odd  Fellow- 
ship in  this  State.  The  present  year  presents  prospects  for  a  continued 
increase  in  our  membership  and  interest  in  this  branch  of  the  Order." 

Illinois — General  Joseph  Fairhall,  Department  Commander,  re- 
ports: "Your  favor  calling  for  a  report  from  this  Department  is 
received.  I  have  deferred  making  up  such  a  report  hoping  to  be  able 
to  speak  more  encouragingly,  but  realizing 'that  in  making  up  a  report 
you  require  the'  facts  to  be  stated,  and  although  at  times  this  may  be 
an  unpleasant  duty,  I  also  realize  that  a  soldier  has  no  alternative  but 
to  perform  a  duty,  however  unpleasant  it  may  be.  When  I  assumed 
command  of  the  Department  of  Illinois  on  January  6,  1913,  I  found  it 
to  consist  of  45  cantons,  several  of  which  are  practically  dead,  many 
quite  dead  and  past  revivification.  I  am  glad  to  say,  however,  that  the 
majority  are  waking  up  and  displaying  more  activity,  while  a  few  are 
worthy  of  special  mention.  Altogether  there  are  probably  33  or  34  out 
of  the  45  that  are  actually  alive.  The  Encampment  branch  has  grown 
very  rapidly  in  this  State  during  the  past  two  or  three  years,  and  I 
feel  that,  if  the  right  spirit  is  infused,  the  Patriarchs  Militant  will 
share  in  this  gain.  I  have  the  pleasure  to  inform  you  that  during  this 
first  six  months  of  my  official  term,  I  have  issued  warrants  for  four 
new  cantons,  each  averaging  twenty  men,  and  two  or  three  are  in 
process  of  evolution.  I  have  visited  many  cantons  in  different  parts 
of  the  state,  wherever  I  have  felt  that  I  could  be  of  service,  and 
expect  to  visit  many  more  before  the  year  closes.  I  regret  that  the 
financial  condition  of  the  Department  is  very  unsatisfactory  and  the 


326  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  Iv    -'"i's^'i 


/  Nov.    18,    1913. 


strictest  economy  will  be  necessary  for  the  next  year  or  more  in 
order  to  clear  off  the  indebtedness.  I  feel  that  some  changes  ought  to 
be  made  in  different  directions,  but,  before  doing  so,  I  am  looking  the 
ground  over  very  carefully  and  endeavoring  to  get  in  personal  touch 
with  each  individual  canton,  therefore  I  do  not  propose  to  make  any  of 
these  changes  until  1  am  sure  of  my  position,  and  that  they  will  be 
for  the  good  of  the  army  in  the  Department.  I  expected  to  meet  with 
friction  on  assuming  command,  owing  to  a  rigorous  line  of  discipline, 
and  a  strict  observance  of  the  code  being  established,  but,  instead,  I 
am  gratified  to  report  that,  instead  of  being  considered  a  martinet, 
the  rank  and  file  have  admitted  that  the  course  adopted  was  a  correct 
one.  and  it  is  having  good  effect.  Promptness  and  attentiveness  are 
points  upon  which  I  insist  on  strict  observance  and  I  try  to  impress 
upon  the  Department  the  words  of  a  once  great  general,  'That  he  who 
would  command  must  first  have  learned  to  obey,'  and  also,  realizing 
that  example  is  a  better  teacher  than  precept,  I  have  my  office  kept  up 
to  the  most  rigid  lines  of  promptness  and  dispatch,  all  correspondence 
being  attended  to  the  same  day  as  received,  while  strict  attention  is 
also  given  to  the  minutest  detail  connected  with  the  Department. 
This  gives  work,  and  plenty  of  it,  but  ultimately  I  feel  assured  that  it 
will  lead  to  success,  and  my  great  aim  is  to  carry  the  Department 
along  upon  lines  which  I  feel  sure  will  one  day  place  it  among  the  most 
prominent  of  the  divisions  of  the  army,  and  that  it  may  be  noted  for 
its  enthusiasm  and  efficiency,  as  well  as  numerical  .strength.  My 
predecessor  clothed  the  army  of  the  Patriarchs  Militant  in.  the  De- 
partment of  Illinois  with  the  dignity  which  it  demands,  and  in  this 
respect  I  intend  to  follow  in  his  steps.  I  hope  next  year  to  be  able  to 
give  you  a  more  satisfactory  and  complete  report,  and  in  the  meantime 
desire  to  assure  you  that  the  interests  of  the  Patriarchs  Militant  in 
this  Department  will  be  looked  after  to  the  best  of  my  ability." 

Illinois — Geo.  B.  Roller,  Grand  Patriarch,  writes:  "In  accord  with 
your  request  of  January  2  in  regard  to  smoking  and  drinking  in  and 
about  the  lodge  room,  I  have  sent  notices  to  each  Encampment  Deputy 
and  have  replies  from  nearly  all.  With  very  few  exceptions  they  re- 
port that  they  were  observing  the  law  in  that  regard,  and  the  few 
that  were  in  the  habit  of  smoking  under  'good  of  Order'  say  that, 
when  the  letter  was  brought  to  their  notice,  they  were  willing  to 
obey  the  law  in  that  respect.  My  observation  is  that  the  Patriarchs 
of  Illinois  are  law  abiding,  yet  there  are  quite  a  number  who  believe 
that  each  Encampment  should  be  allowed  to  regulate  themselves  in 
regard  to  smoking,  holding  that  the  Encampment  is  more  of  a  social 
than  a  beneficiary  branch,  and  those  that  desired  should  have  the 
privilege  of  smoking  under  good  of  the  Order;  however,  they  agree 
that  so  long  as  the  law  remains  they  will  obey  it." 


Tuesday.        1      GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  0.  O.  F.  327 


Nov.    18,    19 1.°,.  f 


John  E.  Jennings,  Grand  Master,  writes:  "I  have  been  attending 
Schools  of  Instruction  in  various  localities  of  the  State  since  January 
and  have  come  in  personal  contact  with  thousands  of  brothers  from 
hundreds  of  different  Lodges  and  my  correspondence  has  been  some- 
what voluminous,  and  I  have  had,  up  to  this  time,  but  one  objection 
or  complaint  in  reference  to  smoking  in  the  Lodge  room  in  violation  of 
the  law,  and  none  in  regard  to  liquor." 

DECISIONS. 

The  following  are  decisions  of  the  Grand  Sire  embodying  modifi- 
cations recommended  by  the  Committee  on  Judiciary,  which  were  ap- 
proved by  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge: 

Subordinate  Lodge  Decisions. 

Decision  1.  Question. — Wlhen  a  Subordinate  Lodge  has  two  or 
more  applications  for  same  degree,  can  the  vote  be  taken  collectively 
or  must  the  vote  be  taken  on  each  candidate  separately? 

Answer. — Must  vote  separately  on  each  candidate. 

Dec.  2.  Question. — Can  a  Grand  Lodge  pass  a  law  allowing  Sub- 
ordinate Lodges  where  they  have  two  or  more  applications  for  same 
degree  to  vote  collectively? 

Answer. — No. 

Dec.  3.  Question. — Is  it  legal  to  organize  a  Lodge  to  meet  on  the 
ground  floor? 

Answer. — I  know  of  no  law  prohibiting  it,  but  it  is  not  usually 
permitted  by  Grand  Masters  because  of  the  danger  of  not  being  suffi- 
ciently private  and  secure  from  intrusion.  In  1897  Journal,  15,168, 
15,534,  15,584,  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  held  that,  while  a  Lodge 
may  be  organized  in  a  good  building  on  the  ground  floor,  all  Lodges 
should  be  admonished  to  see  to  it  that  no  person  is  permitted  to  gain 
a  knowledge  of  what  is  going  on  in  the  Lodge  room  by  approaching 
too  closely. 

If  you  are  sure  the  Lodges  will  look  after  this  closely  and  avoid 
all  danger  of  exposing  the  secrets  of  the  Order  or  what  is  going  on  in 
the  Lodge  room,  and  the  prospects  are  favorable  for  a  good  Lodge 
and  the  members  will  agree  to  move  into  a  second  story  as  soon  as 
practicable,  I  can  see  no  reason  why  you  should  not  authorize  it. 

Dec.  4.  Statement. — A  member  of  Winnipeg  Lodge,  No.  7,  now 
resides  in  New  Zealand  and  wishes  to  transfer  his  membership  to  that 
Jurisdiction. 

Question. — Is  the  Transfer  of  Membership  Law  operative  as  be- 
tween Australia  and  Canada? 


3^8  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  jM    Tuesday, 


1  Nov.    18.    1013. 


Answer. — No.  The  law  was  amended  in  1911  so  as  not  to  extend 
to  or  affect  the  Quasi-Independent  Jurisdictions.  (Journal  1911,  289, 
374.  403.) 

Dec.  5.  Statement. — A  brother  of  the  Jurisdiction  of  Louisiana 
takes  a  withdrawal  card  from  his  Lodge,  which  card  is  dated  No- 
vember 12,  1906,  and  his  official  receipt  shows  his  dues  paid  to  De- 
cember 1,  1906.  He  sends  for  the  card  with  the  intention  of  depositing 
it  in  a  Lodge  in  Kansas.  On  November  22,  1906,  he  is  killed,  before 
he  has  a  chance  to  deposit  the  card  and  before  the  expiration  of  the 
date  to  which  his  dues  are  paid. 

Question. — Is  his  widow  entitled  to  funeral  benefits,  and  what 
was  the  brother's  standing  in  the  Order  at  the  time  of  his  death?  Of 
what  Lodge,  if  any,  was  he  a  member? 

Answer. — When  the  brother  took  his  withdrawal  card  he  severed 
his  connection  with  his  Lodge  and  stood  in  the  same  relation  to  it 
as  to  any  other  Lodge,  excepting  as  to  certain  control  over  him  for  one 
year.     (Busbee's  Digest,  Art.  283.) 

Dec.  6.  Question. — It  seems  there  is  a  difference  of  opinion  rela- 
tive to  the  disposal  of  applications  for  transfer  certificates.  Should  the 
transfer  certificate  be  issued  the  same  Lodge  meeting  night  the  notice 
is  received  from  a  Lodge  in  regular  form,  showing  that  the  brother  has 
been  elected  to  membership  in  another  Lodge,  or  should  the  issuance 
of  the  certificate  be  delayed  until  the  following  meeting? 

Answer. — The  Transfer  Law,  as  amended  (Journal  1911,  375,  403), 
provides  that,  when  notice  is  received  of  the  election,  "that  said 
Lodge  or  Encampment  shall,  unless  charges  are  pending  against  him, 
without  ballot  and  without  fee,  issue  a  transfer  certificate  and  send 
the  same  at  once  to  the  Secretary  or  Scribe  sending  for  same."  Under 
my  interpretation  of  this  law  the  certificate  should  be  issued  the  same 
night  notice  is  received,  unless  charges  are  pending  against  him. 

Dec.  7.  Question. — Is  it  legal  for  the  Mannausa  Printing  Company 
to  use  the  emblems  of  the  Order  on  "The  Odd  Fellow,"  taking  into 
consideration  that  it  is  a  private  enterprise?  Again,  if  it  should  be 
endorsed  by  some  of  the  Detroit  Lodges,  but  run  as  a  private  enter- 
prise, would  it  be  legal  for  it  to  use  the  emblems? 

Answer. — From  what  I  can  see  as  to  the  emblems,  or  marked  edi- 
torial on  page  4  of  "The  Odd  Fellow,"  I  do  not  discover  any  infraction 
of  the  laws  of  the  Order.  I  have  received  regularly  for  several  years 
about  thirty  Odd  Fellow  publications  and  nearly  all  of  them  display 
emblems  of  the  Order.  One  now  before  me  that  I  received  today  has, 
on  its  front  page,  eleven  (11)  emblems  of  the  Order.  This  periodical 
is  published  by  a  prominent  member  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
from  one  of  the  best  Odd  Fellow  Jurisdictions  in  this  country  and  is 


Nov^ll^l^  I       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  329 

as  much  a  "private  enterprise,"  so  far  as  profits  and  losses  are  con- 
cerned, as  any  other  newspaper.  In  fact  nearly  all  the  Odd  Fellow 
publications  in  this  country  are  "private  enterprises,"  entirely  inde- 
pendent of  any  Grand  or  Subordinate  Lodge,  just  as  "The  Odd  Fellow" 
of  Detroit  seems  to  be.  If  this  publication  does  not  violate  any  of  the 
previsions  of  paragraphs  6  and  7  of  Sec.  471  of  Busbee's  Digest,  then 
there  is  no  cause  for  complaint. 

Dec.  8.  Question. — Can  a  Lodge  or  Encampment,  with  its  prin- 
cipal officers,  in  a  body,  visit  another  Lodge  or  Encampment  in  the 
same  Jurisdiction? 

Answer. — Yes.  See  Journal  1857,  pages  2792  and  2828;  and  Jour- 
nal 1858,  pages  2890,  2910  and  2990.    Busbee's  Digest,  Sec.  2219. 

Dec.  9.  Statement. — I  have  a  very  warm  personal  friend,  a  Baptist 
minister,  who  has  been  blind  from  birth.  He,  is;  a  graduate  from  the 
state  school  for  the  blind  and  is  a  talented  man.  He  is  about  30  years 
of  age  and  receives  a  good  salary.  He  is  a  thorough  Odd  Fellow  at 
heart  and  in  his  every  day  life.  It  is  his  great  desire  to  become  a 
member  of  the  Order  and  if  there  is  any  possible  way  by  which  the 
degree  could  be  conferred  on  him  he  would  be  of  great  benefit  to  the 
Order. 

Question. — Can  he  be  admitted?  He  would  not  expect  any  bene- 
fits from  any  injury  he  might  receive  by  reason  of  his  blindness. 

Answer. — In  view  of  the  decisions  of  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
I  do  not  see  how  he  can  be  admitted.  See  Sees.  884  and  886  of  Busbee's 
Digest. 

Dec.  10.  Statement. — A  person  makes  application  for  membership 
to  our  Lodge  by  initiation  and  gives  his  occupation  as  "druggist."  We 
have  in  this  state  local  option,  Salt  Lake  City  has  license,  and  under 
the  different  classifications  we  have  "druggist  or  pharmacist  license" 
and  a  "druggist  or  pharmacist"  is'defined  as  a  person,  partnership  or 
corporation  which  compounds  or  disposes  of  drugs  or  medicines,  and  in 
the  course  of  its  business  also  disposes  of  intoxicating  liquors  not  to  be 
consumed  upon  the  premises.  All  licenses  are  granted  by  the  district 
judges. 

Question. — Is  the  applicant  eligible  under  Sec.  1643  (1641-1642), 
Busbee's  Digest,  for  membership? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Dec.  11.  Question. — Do  not  the  laws  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
require  the  funeral  expenses  to  be  paid  to  the  widow,  if  living,  no 
matter  whether  the  brother  was  buried  by  the  Order  or  not? 

Answer. — The  funeral  expenses  are  to  be  paid  to  the  person  by 
whom  they  were  incurred  whether  the  brother  was  buried  by  or 
under  the  auspices  of  the  Order  or  not.

Dec.  12.  Statement. — We  have  a  Subordinate  Lodge  in  this  Juris- 
diction, of  about  three  hundred  members,  which  Lodge  is  without 
assets  and  with  an  indebtedness  of  practically  one  thousand  dollars 
for  weekly  benefits  and  funeral  expenses  accrued  and  unpaid.  The 
members  of  the  Lodge  refuse  to  increase  the  present  rate  of  dues, 
namely,  six  dollars  per  year  (which  is  inadequate),  or  to  levy  a  special 
assessment  for  the  purpose  of  paying  the  indebtedness.  The  financial 
condition  of  affairs  in  the  Lodge  is  constantly  growing  worse.  Sections 
2  to  6  of  Art.  X  of  our  Subordinate  Constitution  provide  what  benefits 
shall  be  paid  and  to  whom.  Section  1  of  Art.  VI  makes  it  the  duty 
of  the  Noble  Grand  to  draw  upon  the  Treasurer  for  all  sums  that  have 
been  voted  by  the  Lodge,  or  that  may  be  necessary  to  pay  the  benefits 
provided  by  the  by-laws.  Our  Grand  Lodge  has  enacted  the  following 
legislation,  to-wit: 

"A  Lodge  has  the  right  to  provide  by  its  by-laws  that  special 
assessments  may  be  levied  on  its  members  for  purposes  recognized 
by  the  laws  of  the  Order,  but  has  not  the  right  to  levy  assessments 
otherwise  than  provided  in  its  constitution  and  by-laws,  except  in  case 
of  total  deficiency  of  funds,  when  a  specific  assessment  may  be  levied 
for  the  payment  of  benefits  and  necessary  Lodge  expenses. 

Question.— I  submit  the  question  to  yon  as  to  whether  or  not  a 
Grand  Lodge,  or  its  Board  of  Executive  Grand  Officers  during  the 
recess  between  Grand  Lodge  sessions,  has  the  power  to  suspend  a 
Lodge  in  the  condition  above  cited  for  failure  or  neglect  to  pay  weekly 
benefits  and  funeral  expenses,  where  there  is  no  local  legislation  au- 
thorizing such  suspension.  I  enclose  a  copy  of  the  Constitution  of  the 
Grand  Lodge  of  this  Jurisdiction.  See  Art.  I,  Sec.  2,  and  Art.  V,  Sec.  1. 
These  sections  contain  the  only  law  we  have  relating  to  the  subject 
matter. 

Answer. — Benefits  are  a  distinguishing  characteristic  of  our  Order 
and  may  be  regarded  as  the  fundamental  principle  of  Odd  Fellowship. 
The  receipt  of  such  benefits  is  a  right  and  not  a  charity,  and  it  is  the 
duty  of  subordinates  to  tax  their  members  in  order  to  pay  such  benefits. 
Busbee's  Digest,  Sec.  4. 

The  wTord  "may"  in  the  exception  in  your  Grand  Lodge  law,  above 
quoted,  should  be  construed  as  meaning  shall,  and  the  law  interpreted 
as  prohibiting  the  levy  of  special  assessments  by  a  Subordinate  Lodge, 
otherwise  than  provided  in  its  constitution  and  by-laws,  except  in  case 
of  total  deficiency  of  funds,  when  a  specific  assessment  shall  be  levied 
for  the  payment  of  benefits  and  the  necessary  expenses  of  the  Lodge. 

This  is  my  construction  of  your  laws,  and  I  believe  as  Grand 
Master  you  have  the  right,  with  the  approval  of  the  Grand  Officers,  to 
direct  that  Lodge  to  levy  a  special  assessment  sufficient  to  pay  the 
benefits  it  owes,  and  if  it  refuses  then  reclaim  its  charter.

I  do  not  believe  in  trifling  in  such  matters,  and  advise  forcing  the 
issue,  and  believe  your  Grand  Lodge  would  sustain  you  in  your  action. 

Dec.  13.  Statement. — The  following  provision  is  contained  in  the 
by-laws  of  one  of  our  Subordinate  Lodges:  "When  a  member  has 
received  the  sum  of  $300.00  sick  benefits  he  shall  be  entitled  and 
receive  only  one  dollar  per  week  for  any  sickness  which  may  occur 
thereafter." 

Question. — Is  such  provision  legal  under  the  minimum  benefit  law? 

Answer. — No. 

Dec.  14.  Question. — May  a  Past  Grand  Patriarch  use  his  jewel  in 
lieu  of  regalia  in  Subordinate  and  Rebekah  Lodges  as  well  as  in  the 
Encampment  branch? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Dec.  15.  Question. — May  a  Past  Grand  Master  use  his  jewel  in 
lieu  of  regalia  in  Encampment  and  Rebekah  Lodges  as  well  as  in 
Subordinate  Lodges? 

Answer.— Yes.     Journal  1911,  pages  286,  288,  376,  403. 

Dec.  16.  Statement. — At  the  close  of  a  special  feature  of  Lodge 
business,  such  as  an  official  visitation  by  Grand  Officers  or  the  con- 
'ferring  of  a  degree,  a  Lodge  takes  a  recess  and  retires  from  the  Lodge 
room  to  a  banquet  hall  for  the  purpose  of  partaking  of  a  spread  pro- 
vided for  the  entertainment  of  guests  and  others.  At  the  conclusion 
of  the  banquet  cigars  are  passed  and  members  smoke  during  a  pro- 
gram of  speaking,  etc.  After  the  social  hour  members  of  the  Lodge 
return  to  the  Lodge  room,  conclude  the  business  of  the  evening  and 
close  the  Lodge  in  regular  form. 

Question. — Under  such  circumstances  are  the  practices  referred 
to  unlawful? 

Answer. — No.     Not  in  Lodge  room. 

Dec.  17.  Statement. — A  Lodge  has  no  room  available  for  a  spread 
or  banquet  except  its  Lodge  room  and,  under  circumstances  as  above 
related,  the  Lodge  takes  a  recess  and  the  brothers  bring  in  tables  and 
provide  for  the  entertainment  of  their  guests  in  the  Lodge  room.  Here, 
as  above,  members  indulge  in  smoking  during  the  supper  and  exercises 
forming  a  part  of  the  social  function. 

Question. — Is  this  unlawful? 

Answer. — Yes.  Should  be  deferred  under  these  circumstances 
until  Lodge  finally  closes. 

Dec.  18.  Statement. — A  Lodge  meets  to  attend  the  funeral  of  a 
brother.  It  is  opened  in  regular  form;  the  brothers  leave  the  Lodge 
room  and,  in  carriages  provided,  go  to  the  place  of  the  funeral;  then 
to  the  grave,  performing  the  funeral  ceremonies,  after  which  they 
return  to  the  carriages  and  drive  back  to  the  Lodge  room  and  close  the

Lodge.  Oftentimes  the  cemetery  is  several  miles  from  the  Lodge 
room  and  the  drive  occupies  a  considerable  period  of  time,  during 
which  the  brothers  in  the  carriages  indulge  in  smoking. 

Question. — Is   smoking  under  such  circumstances   unlawful? 

Answer. — No,  but  doubt  the  propriety  of  it  on  such  an  occasion. 

Dec.  19.  Question. — The  anniversary  coming  on  Saturday  and  our 
members  considering  that  a  poor  night  for  our  celebration,  could  it  be 
held  on  some  other  night? 

Answer. — Yes.     See  Journal  1911,  pages  374  and  403. 

Dec.  20.  Statement. — A  brother  is  a  ward  of  a  state  asylum  and 
is  being  cared  for  by  the  state  and  has  no  legally  appointed  guardian. 

Question. — Should  the  Lodge  pay  benefits  and   to   whom?     If  to 
the  wife  could  the  brother  again  collect  benefits  if  he  should  gain  his  . 
mind  ? 

Answer. — Yes.  The  Lodge  should  pay  the  benefits;  first,  for 
the  relief  of  the  personal  needs  of  the  brother,  if  any;  second,  for 
relief  of  the  needs  of  his  wife  and  minor  children,  if  any;  and  any 
benefits  belonging  to  him  not  thus  expended,  to  be  held  in  a  separate 
fund,  to  be  accounted  for  to  him  in  the  event  of  his  recovery,  or  in  the 
event  of  his  death  to  be  paid  to  his  widow,  orphans  or  dependent  rela- 
tives if  there  be  none  such,  said  unexpended  benefits  to  revert  to  the 
general  fund  of  the  Lodge. 

Dec.  21 .  Question. — Is  a  man  who  is  a  subject  of  a  foreign  govern- 
ment holding  allegiance  to  said  government,  and  not  a  citizen  of  the 
United  States,  nor  having  ever  declared  his  intention  to  become  one, 
eligible  to  be  initiated  into  a  Lodge  of  our  Order? 

Answer. — Yes,  provided  he  has  "been  a  resident  within  the  Juris- 
diction a  sufficient  length  of  time  under  the  local  law  to  make  him 
eligible.     Busbee's  Digest,  Sections  919,  920,  923. 

Dec.  22.  Statement. — The  Grand  Master  of  Colorado  submitted  to 
me  a  copy  of  No.  3  of  Vol.  I  of  "Rowland's  Monthly  Record,"  of  April, 
1913,  purporting  to  be  published  in  the  interest  of  Rowland  Lodge,  No. 
31,  I.  O.  O.  F.,  in  which  seven  cards  advertising  different  private  enter- 
prises in  all  of  which  the  name  of  the  advertiser  is  prefixed  with  the 
word  or  abbreviation  "Bro.,"  and  asked  this  question: 

Question. — Is  it  legal  for  a  brother  to  issue  such  a  paper  for  the 
purpose  of  advertising  his  business  to  the  members  of  the  Order? 


XovTU18dai913  1       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  333 

Answer. — No.  It  is,  in  my  judgment,  not  only  illegal  for  the 
brother  to  publish  such  paper  for  advertising  his  own  private  business, 
but  it  is  a  violation  of  the  spirit  if  not  the  letter  of  the  law  for  a 
member  of  the  Order  to  have  his  card  advertising  his  private  business 
published  in  such  a  paper  with  "Bro."  prefixed  to  his  name. 

In  Art.  471  of  Busbee's  Digest,  Sec.  2,  it  is  provided: 

"No  member  of  the  Order  shall,  either  directly  or  indirectly,  use 
or  sanction  the  use  of  any  of  the  emblems,  the  name  or  any  of  the 
titles  or  the  mottoes  or  the  initials  thereof  of  this  Order  in  the  prose- 
cution of  any  private  business  or  enterprise." 

In  Sec.  4  of  said  Article  it  is  provided: 

"A  member  of  the  Order  shall  not  use  any  of  its  emblems,  its 
names  or  any  of  its  titles,  its  mottoes',  or  the  initials  thereof  in  any 
advertisement  or  public  display  not  authorized  by  some  law  of  the 
Order." 

Section  472  of  Busbee's  Digest  says: 

"Use  of  Name." — The  use  of  the  words  "Odd  Fellows"  is  a  use  of 
the  "Name"  of  the  Order  within  the  meaning  of  all  laws  forbidding  the 
use  of  such  name  *  *  *  1896  Journal,  15,043,  15,085;  1899  Journal, 
38,  365,  394." 

If  the  use  of  the  words  "Odd  Fellows"  is  the  use  of  the  name  of 
the  Order,  then  when  a  card  in  an  Odd  Fellows'  paper  advertises  "Bro. 
Sam  Jones,  Drugs  and  Druggist  Sundries,  etc.,"  or  "Bro.  John  Smith, 
Tonsorial  Parlor,  etc.,"  it  indirectly  uses  the  name  of  the  Order  for  a 
private  business  enterprise  because  it  is  intended  to  and  does  give  the 
information  to  the  public  that  an  Odd  Fellow  by  the  name  of  Sam 
Jones  or  John  Smith  is  running  such  business,  and  is  specially  catering 
for  the  support  and  patronage  of  the  Odd  Fellow  readers  of  such  paper. 

Dec.  23.  Statement. — Bro.  August  Bomke  was  recommended  by 
Bro.  John  Dehorty  and  Bro.  P.  S.  Bomke  (a  brother),  both  of  whom, 
in  enclosed  signed  statements,  state  they  knew  he  had  been  an  inmate 
of  an  insane  asylum,  but  did  not  consider  it  necessary  to  inform  the 
Lodge. 

The  three  members  of  the  investigating  committee  reported  fa- 
vorably on  his  application.  Of  the  three,  one  can  not  at  this  time  be 
reached,  the  other  two  members,  in  enclosed  statements,  state  they 
did  not  learn  before  recommending  him  that  he  had  been  an  inmate  of 
an  insane  asylum. 

Bro.  August  Bomke  was  admitted  to  the  Territorial  Insane  Asylum 
February  28,  1908,  buffering  from  melancholia.  Discharged  July  28,' 
1908.     (Records  only  state  he  was  discharged.) 

He  was  recommended  for  membership  in  Harmony  Lodge,  No.  3, 
May  13,  1912,  accompanied  by  a  certificate  signed  by  a  qualified  doctor

as  per  enclosed  blank  certificate.  Committee  reported  favorably  May 
20,  1912;  initiated  June  3,  1912;  received  the  third  degree  June  18,  1912. 
Became  an  inmate  of  the  Territorial  Insane  Asylum  November  6,  1912, 
suffering  with  paranoia  with  mania  and  is  still  an  inmate  of  the  insane 
asylum. 

Question  1. — Did  Bro.  August  Bomke  and  the  two  recommending 
brothers,  by  concealing  from  the  Lodge  his  previous  detention  in  an 
insane  asylum,  render  his  application,  initiation  and  membership 
illegal? 

Answer. — No.  His  initiation  was  legal  unless  he  was  insane  at 
that  time.  Journal  1905,  pages  75,  299,  323. 

Question  2. — Shall  Bro.  August  Bomke  be  expelled  from  the  Order 
or  shall  his  initiation  be  declared  void? 

Answer. — You  can  not  expel  him  unless  he  was  guilty  of  some 
fraud  in  gaining  admission,  and  you  can  not  declare  his  initiation  void 
unless  he  was  insane  when  admitted.  Busbee's  Digest,  995,  996,  997. 
Journal  1905,  pages  75,  299,  323. 

Question  3. — If  his  entrance  was  illegal  is  he  entitled  to  any  reim- 
bursement for  fees  and  dues  collected  to  date? 

Answer. — No. 

Question  4. — Were  Bro.  August  Bomke  and  the  brothers  who 
recommended  him  justified  in  concealing  from  the  Lodge  the  fact  of 
his  previous  detention  in  an  insane  asylum,  in  view  of  the  fact  that 
he  was  passed  by  the  examining  physician  and  it  had  been  four  years 
since  he  was  discharged  from  the  insane  asylum? 

Answer. — Unless  they  had  at  that  time  reason  to  believe  the  appli- 
cant was  still  insane  the  failure  to  tell  of  the  fact  of  his  previous  in- 
sanity could  hardly  be  called  a  willful  wrong,  especially  in  view  of  the 
fact  that  the  form  of  the  examining  physician's  certificate  submitted 
shows  that  the  doctor  certified  that  he  had  made  an  examination  of 
August  Bomke  and  found  no  diseased  condition  of  the  skin,  eyes,  ears, 
nose,  throat,  lungs,  heart,  abdominal  viscera,  including  an  examination 
of  his  urine,  and  general  nervous  system,  and  recommended  him  as 
a  good  risk  to  an  organization  paying  risk  and  death  benefits. 

Question  5. — In  the  event  of  a  decision  stating  him  a  member  in 
good  standing,  is  he  entitled  to  benefits — the  illness  having  originated 
previous  to  his  entering  our  Order? 

Answer. — Yes,  unless  he  was  insane  when  initiated,  and  this  must 
first  be  determined  under  a  proceeding  for  that  purpose,  of  which  he 
must  have  full  notice.    Journal  1905,  pages  75,  300,  323. 

Dec.  24.  Statement. — A  brother  who  holds  membership  in  the 
Jurisdiction  of  Ohio,  and  changes  his  residence  to  the  Jurisdiction  of 
West  Virginia,  takes  his  withdrawal  card  and  afterwards  applies  for

admission  to  a  lodge  at  his  place  of  residence  in  West  Virginia  by 
withdrawal  card  in  date. 

Question. — Should  he  be  admitted  under  the  Transfer  Law,  or 
should  he  be  required  to  pay  an  admission  fee? 

Answer. — He  should  not  be  admitted  under  the  Transfer  Law,  but 
required  to  pay  such  fee  as  is  provided  by  your  local  law.  Busbee's 
Digest,  Sec.  448. 

Dec.  25.  Statement. — A  brother  is  taken  seriously  ill  and  is  re- 
moved to  the  hospital  lor  an  operation.  He  had  a  private  room,  and 
the  doctor  ordered  that  a  private  nurse  be  procured,  as  it  was  a  critical 
case.  The  brother  paid  three  dollars  per  day  for  his  room,  and  in 
addition  to  that  had.  to  pay  twenty-one  dollars  per  week  for  the  nurse, 
also  her  board  and  laundry,  for  five  consecutive  weeks. 

Question. — Shouldn't  the  Lodge  pay  what  the  by-laws  provide  for 
watchers  (which  in  this  case  is  ten  dollars  and  a  half  per  week)  to- 
wards nurse  hire? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Dec.  26.  Statement. — On  January  15  Eureka  Lodge,  No.  13,  Dead- 
wood,  South  Dakota,  in  regular  session  voted  to  donate  one  hundred 
dollars  ($100.00)  to  the  Deadwood  Auditorium  fund  from  the  contin- 
gent fund  in  the  hands  of  the  trustees.  The  trustees  refused  to  pay 
over  the  money  on  the  ground  that  as  an  Odd  Fellows'  Lodge  we  have 
no  right  to  make  any  such  donations,  and  an  appeal  was  made  by  the 
Lodge  to  the  Grand  Master,  who  ruled  that  said  donation  could  be 
made,  as  it  would  be  a  benefit  to  the  property  owned  by  the  Lodge. 
The  trustees  then  gave  notice  that  they  would  pay  the  money  only 
under  protest  ordered  by  a  vote  of  the  Lodge.  The  Lodge  by  vote 
ordered  the  trustees  to  pay  said  donation  of  one  hundred  dollars  under 
their  protest. 

Question. — Where  is  the  law  permitting  such  donations  by  an 
Odd  Fellows'  Lodge? 

Answer. — There  is  no  such  law.  The  contingent  fund  can  not  be 
used  for  donations  or  subscriptions  for  public  uses.  Journal  1912,  page 
749.     Resolution  20,  page  775,  Report  40,  adopted  page  830. 

Dec.  27.  Question  withdrawn  and  decision  omitted  from  the 
printed  journal  of  proceedings.  See  Report  115,  page  140,  Daily  Pro- 
ceedings of  1913. 

Dec.  28.  Question. — Does  the  anti-smoking  law  prohibit  smoking 
in  the  ante-room  or  side  rooms  when  the  Lodge  is  in  session? 

Answer. — Our  law  prohibiting  smoking  in  the  Lodge  room  when  in 
session  does  not  deprive  brothers  of  the  privilege  of  smoking  in  any 
side  room  riot  an  ante  room,  or  in  the  Lodge  room  when  the  Lodge  is 
not  in  session.

Rebekah   Decisions. 

Dec.  29.  Statement. — A  Rebekah  Lodge  having  elected  officers 
according  to  law,  on  the  night  directed,  the  Noble  Grand-elect,  who 
has  been  advanced  from  the  Vice  Grand's  chair,  finds  she  must  undergo 
a  serious  operation  before  installation  takes  place,  and  does  so,  not 
being  present,  but  is  excused  by  Lodge  to  be  installed  when  able,  as 
per  Busbee's  Digest,  Art.  1443,  middle  part.  All  officers  except 
Noble  Grand  and  Conductor  and  one  Supporter  were  installed  second 
meeting  night  in  January,  the  retiring  Noble  Grand,  by  my  direction, 
being  inducted  into  the  Past  Grand's  chair,  and  by  virtue  of  the  first 
part  of  Art.  1443  directed  the  newly  installed  Vice  Grand,  after  the 
installation,  to  occupy  the  Noble  Grand's  chair,  temporarily  filling 
Vice  Grand's  chair  with  some  Past  Grand.  My  further  reason  for  such 
decision  was  Art.  1449,  and  Vice  Grand  did  appoint  subordinate  officers, 
mostly  from  a  list  furnished  by  Noble  Grand-elect.  Now  some  claim, 
according  to  the  ritual  in  installation  obligation,  retiring  Noble  Grand 
should  not  have  taken  the  Past  Grand's  chair,  but  should  continue  to 
serve  as  Noble  Grand  until  her  successor  is  installed.  I  claim  terms 
are  for  one  year  according  to  Rebekah  Code,  and  as  soon  as  an  officer 
qualified  to  preside  for  the  new  term,  as  the  Vice  Grand  is,  is  installed, 
then  the  former  Noble  Grand,  who  was  not  elected  for  that  term,  must 
give  way  to  such  qualified  officer.  I  claim  that  part  of  the  obligation 
is  so  that  when  no  election  may  have  taken  place  or,  when  there  has. 
the  old  officers  are  empowered  to  hold  office  legally  until  a  general 
installation  takes  place. 

Question. — Was  my  decision  correct? 

Answer. — No. 

Dec.  30.  Question. — Can  a  person  who  has  not  received  the 
Rebekah  degree  be  a  petitioner  for  a  Rebekah  charter? 

Answer. — Yes.  See  Section  27  of  the  Rebekah  Code,  Busbee's 
Digest,  page  702;  also,  Report  67,  pages  359,  401,  Journal  of  1911. 

Dec.  31.  Question. — Is  it  necessary  that  at  least  five  of  the  peti- 
tioners for  a  Rebekah  charter  hold  live  withdrawal  cards? 

Answer. — No. 

Dec.  32.  Question. — May  persons  holding  expired  withdrawal 
cards,  defunct  certificates  and  dismissal  certificates  join  in  the  petition 
for  a  Rebekah  charter? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Dec.  33.  Question. — Can  a  Past  President  of  a  Rebekah  Assembly 
out  on  a  withdrawal  card  institute  a  Rebekah  Lodge? 

Answer. — The  issuance  of  a  withdrawal  card  severed  her  con- 
nection with  her  Rebekah  Lodge  so  that  she  was  no  longer  a  member

of  a  Rebekah  Lodge  in  good  standing.  Under  Art.  Ill  of  the  Rebekah 
Code  as  amended,  1907  Journal,  250,  299,  309,  it  is  provided  that  the 
Grand  Master  shall  be  the  installing  (instituting)  officer,  who  may, 
however,  appoint  for  that  purpose  any  Past  Grand  or  Past  Noble 
Grand,  who  is  in  good  standing  in  a  Rebekah  Lodge. 

Dec.  34.  Question. — Is  Resolution  25,  pages  58  and  59,  Daily  Jour- 
nal of  1912,  to  be  construed  as  a  general  law  and  mandatory,  requiring 
all  reports  from  Rebekah  Assemblies  to  be  received  from  Secretaries 
thereof  direct  to  the  Grand  Secretary  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge, 
or  is  said  resolution  to  be  construed  as  permissive  only  where  au- 
thority is  granted  by  the  Grand  Lodges  respectively  to  so  report? 
In  other  words,  should  reports  for  Rebekah  Lodges  in  Jurisdictions 
having  Assemblies  be  received  by  the  Grand  Secretary  of  the  Sovereign 
Grand  Lodge,  some  from  the  Secretaries  of  Assemblies  and  some  from 
Grand  Secretaries  of  Grand  Lodges? 

Answer. — The  resolution  referred  to  is  not  mandatory. 

Dec.  35.  Statement. — There  are  two  Rebekah  Lodges  in  the  same 
town  and  each  have  candidates  ready  for  initiation.  The  degree  Staff 
of  one  of  the  Lodges  is  to  put  on  the  work  at  a  district  meeting  in  the 
same  town. 

Question. — Can  that  degree  staff  initiate  candidates  for  both 
Lodges? 

Answer. — A  degree  staff  at  a  district  meeting  can  only  exemplify 
the  degree  and  cannot  confer  it  by  initiation.  Candidates  must  be 
initiated  in  the  Lodge  electing  them  to  membership,  but  such  Lodge 
may  invite  the  degree  staff  of  another  Lodge  to  confer  the  degree  in 
the  Lodge  electing  the  candidate. 

Encampment  Decisions. 

Dec.  36.  Question. — In  the  absence  of  the  Chief  Patriarch,  High 
Priest,  Senior  Warden,  Junior  Warden,  Secretary  and  Treasurer,  and 
there  being  no  Past  Chief  Patriarch  present,  who  would  have  the 
authority  to  open  the  Encampment? 

.  Answer. — An  Encampment  can  not  be  opened  without  some  mem- 
ber present  qualified  to  preside.  Your  statement  shows  that  there 
was  no  member  present  so  qualified,  hence,  no  legal  meeting  could  be 
held. 

Dec.  37.  Question. — Are  Grand  Honors  only  conferred  upon  the 
Grand  Officers  in  the  branches  to  which  they  belong  as  such  officers? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Dec.  38.  Statement.— At  it  session  in  1895,  the  Sovereign  Grand 
Lodge  provided  that  Grand  Encampments  might  so  legislate  as  to  per- 
mit   Subordinate    Encampments    within    its    Jurisdiction    to    be    non- 


33§  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  \  N    Tuesday,

beneficial;  that  the  degrees  might  be  conferred  at  a  minimum  cost  of 
$1.00  each,  and  the  annual  dues  to  be  fixed  at  $1.00. 

Question  1. — Under  this  legislation  can  a  Subordinate  Encampment 
be  instituted  which  would  have  both  clauses  of  membership,  viz.:  bene- 
ficial and  non-beneficial,  or  must  the  entire  membership  be  either  one 
class  or  the  other? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Question  2. — What  is  the  proper  mode  of  procedure  in  this  case? 
Should  the  members  be  required  to  pay  an  additional  fee? 

Answer. — That  would  depend  upon  local  legislation. 

Dec.  39.  Statement. — Section  1,  Art.  XIV,  of  our  Grand  Encamp- 
ment Constitution  reads:  "The  revenue  of  this  Grand  Encampment 
shall  be  raised  for  the  purpose  of  defraying  the  necessary  expenses 
thereof." 

Section  1,  of  Art.  II,  of  the  Constitution  reads:  "It  is  invested 
with  power  *  *  *  to  do  all  other  acts  promotive  of  the  interest 
of  the  Patriarchal  branch  of  the  Order  in  this  jurisdiction,  not  incon- 
sistent with  the  Constitution  and  laws  of  the  Grand  Encampment  and 
of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  of  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd 
Fellows." 

Question. — Can  the  Grand  Encampment  (it  having  ample  funds) 
appropriate  $300.00  to  be  used  by  a  committee  in  preparing  entertain- 
ment and  parade  features,  as  an  inducement  to  the  Patriarchs  Militant 
to  attend  and  participate  in  the  public  functions  incident  to  the  meet- 
ing of  the  Grand  Encampment? 

Answer. — Yes,  under  the  above  provisions.  The  right  of  Grand 
Lodges  and  Grand  Encampments  to  expend  their  funds  for  such  pur- 
poses is  dependent  upon  and  must  be  determined  by  the  provisions 
of  the  Constitution  and  laws  of  the  respective  Grand  Bodies  on  the 
subject  of  revenues  and  disbursements.  In  respect  to  the  expenditure 
of  the  funds  of  Subordinate  Lodges  and  Encampments  an  entirely 
different  question  arises  for  obvious  reasons.  1896  Journal,  15,007,- 
15.008  and  15,071. 

Dec.  40.  Statement. — A  member  of  an  Encampment  was  dropped 
for  non-payment  of  dues.  While  out  of  standing  he  became  totally 
blind  and  now  wishes  to  be  reinstated  as  a  non-beneficial  member. 

Question. — Can  he  be  reinstated  in  any  manner? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Patriarchs  Militant  Decisions. 
Dec.  41.     Question. — Has  a  Chevalier  the  right  to  wear  his  head- 
gear as  a  part  of  his  uniform  at  the  Grand  Encampment  session? 


Tuesday         ?       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  339 


Nov.    18.    1913.  f 


Answer. — No.  There  seems  to  be  no  section  of  the  Patriarchs 
Militant  Code  giving  the  right  to  Chevaliers  to  wear  their  headgear 
except  in  subordinate  bodies,  Bnsbee's  Digest,  Sec.  27,  Patriarchs  Mili- 
tant Code,  page  61S,  and  Sec.  2395,  page  679.  At  the  Sovereign  Grand 
Lodge  session  in  3  911  Past  Grand  Sire  Pinkerton,  while  temporarily 
occupying  the  Grand  Sire's  chair,  ruled  that  a  Chevalier  entering  the 
Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  must  remove  his  chapeau  and  no  objection  or 
question  was  raised  as  to  his  ruling  and  I  take  it  that  this  action 
amounted  to  an  approval  of  his  opinion.  Brother  Pinkerton's  ruling 
was  to  the  effect  that  a  Chevalier,  like  all  others,  should  be  uncovered 
and  have  on  neither  cap  nor  chapeau.  If  a  Chevalier  must  uncover  in 
the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  because  there  is  no  specific  law  exempting 
him  from  so  doing,  then  the  same  rule  should  prevail  in  regard  to 
Grand  Lodges  and  Grand  Encampments,  and  I  have  therefore  answered 
your  question  in  the  negative.  Of  course  the  remainder  of  his  uniform 
is  unobjectionable  and  almost  a  necessity,  as  Chevaliers  visiting  Grand 
Bodies  might  not  have  any  other  suit  with  them  and  otherwise  would 
be  deprived  of  visiting  at  all. 

Dec.  42.  Question. — Does  the  rule  which  governs  the  Subordinate 
Lodge,  Encampment  and  Rebekah  secret  work,  that  all  captions,  sub- 
heads and  all  matter  enclosed  in  parenthesis  shall  not  be  given  by 
the  officer  instructing  the  candidate,  apply  to  the  Patriarchs  Militant 
degree? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Dec.  43.  Statement. — At  the  first  day's  session  of  the  Grand 
Lodge  in  October  1912,  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  W.  and  O.  Home 
made  a  report  (pages  9502  and  9503)  upon  the  matter  of  certain  rumors 
affecting  the  character  of  the  President,  Brother  I.  N.  Williams,  P.G.M. 
Said  report  fully  and  completely  exonerated  Brother  Williams.  The 
Committee  filed  with  its  report  a  complete  copy  of  the  report  of 
investigation  as  to  Brother  Williams,  with  a  transcript  of  all  evi- 
dence. 

A  resodution  of  Brother  W.  H.  Cox,  P.G.M.  and  G.Rep.,  was 
adopted  providing  that  a  committee  of  three  be  appointed  to  invesli- 
gategate  the  evidence  taken  by  the  committee  appointed  by  the  Board 
of  Directors  of  the  Home  to  inquire  into  rumors  concerning  the  good 
character  of  Brother  I.  N.  Williams,  and  any  other  evidence  concern- 
ing the  conduct  of  Brother  and  Sister  G.  R.  Kennedy  during  their  con- 
nection with  the  Home,  and  that  said  committee  report  at  this  ses- 
sion of  the  Grand  Lodge.  Grand  Master  Breith  appointed  the  follow- 
ing committee  as  provided  for  in  said  motion:  Lynn  T.  Gruber, 
P.G.M.,  No.  15;  M.  M.  Logan,  Rep.,  No.  164;  and  J.  C.  Helburn,  Rep., 
No.  140. 


340  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  \  NtaJrnfoda?{ 


/  Nov.    IS.    1913. 


On  the  second  day  the  above  action  was  reconsidered  and  the  mat- 
ter pending  being  the  adoption  of  Brother  Cox's  resolution,  Brother 
I.  N.  Williams,  P.G.M.,  offered  as  a  substitute  the  following,  which  was 
adopted: 

Resolved,  that  the  report  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  be  adopted, 
excepting  so  much  of  said  report  as  refers  to  I.  N.  Williams'  relation 
to  the  Home,  and  that  this  part  be  referred  to  the  special  committee 
appointed  at  this  session,  together  with  all  evidence  and  statements 
that  were  before  the  committee  of  the  Board  of  Directors  who  inves- 
tigated these  rumors,  and  that  this  committee  be  instructed  to  investi- 
tigate  any  rumors  or  matters  affecting  Mr.  and  Mrs.  G.  R.  Kennedy 
during  their  connection  with  the  Home,  and  that  said  committee  be 
empowered  to  employ  a  stenographer  and  to  summon  anyone  who  can 
give  any  evidence  bearing  on  this  matter  to  give  their  testimony,  and 
that  they  make  report  at  the  next  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge.  Should 
the  investigation  develop  conditions  justifying  it  the  committee  are 
directed  to  bring  directly  to  the  attention  of  the  Lodges,  whose  mem- 
bers are  innvolved,  the  statement  of  facts.     (Pages  9504  and  9505.) 

Grand  Master  Brei.th  appointed  the  same  committee  as  had  been 
appointed  on  the  previous  day  under  the  resolution  of  Brother  Cox. 

Afterwards  during  the  same  session  Brother  W.  U.  Carr  was 
installed  Grand  Master.  He  was  also  one  of  the  witnesses  who  testi- 
fied in  the  Williams'  investigation  and  his  testimony  was  filed  with 
the  report  of  the  W.  and  O.  Home  Board  presented  to  the  Grand 
Lodge. 

About  three  weeks  after  the  Grand  Lodge  adjourned  Brother 
Lynn  T.  Gruber,  one  of  the  special  committee,  died,  and  Grand  Master 
Carr  appointed  a  member  to  fill  this  vacancy  and  named  him  as 
chairman. 

The  Constitution  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Kentucky  in  Sec.  8  of 
Art.  IV,  defines  the  duties  and  powers  of  the  Grand  Master,  and  among 
other  things  provides:  "He  shall  appoint  all  committees,  except  when 
the  nomination  thereof  is,  on  motion,  reserved  to  the  Grand  Lodge." 

It  also  gives  him  authority  to  fill  any  vacancies  in  the  Grand  Offi- 
cers for  the  term  of  the  respective  offices,  but  nowhere  provides  that 
he  may,  by  appointment  during  the  recess  of  the  Grand  Lodge,  fill  any 
vacancies  on  committees. 

Question. — This  committee  having  been  created  by  a  special  reso- 
lution of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  before  Grand  Master  Carr  was  installed, 
can  Grand  Master  Carr  fill  the  vacancy  caused  by  the  death  of  Lynn 
T.  Gruber? 

Answer. — No.  The  resolution  of  Brother  Williams  having  pro- 
vided  that  the  matter  should   be  referred   to   the  special   committee 


Nov. 


Tuesday^  |       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  34 1 


appointed  at  this  session  (referring  to  Lynn  T.  Gruber,  M.  M.  Logan 
and  J.  C.  Helburn  appointed  on  the  previous  day  under  the  resolution 
of  Brother  Cox),  the  Grand  Lodge  by  adopting  this  resolution  reserved 
the  right  to  nominate  the  committee,  and  Grand  Master  Breith,  in 
announcing  these  three  Brothers  simply  carried  out  the  instructions 
of  the  Grand  Lodge.  Besides  the  Grand  Lodge  Constitution  in  pro- 
viding for  the  Grand  Master  filling  vacancies,  names  certain  vacancies 
he  can  fill,  and  does  not  mention  committees,  and  it  might  be  well  pre- 
sumed that  this  was  the  limit  of  his  authority. 

Dec.  44.  Statement. — Nearly  three  months  ago  our  Grand  Master 
left  the  state  to  travel  for  a  firm  in  Kansas  City.  He  has  never  writ- 
ten to  any  of  us  and  we  are  unable  to  locate  him.  I  was  informed  by 
our  Assembly  President,  who  lives  in  the  same  town,  that  a  letter  sent 
to  Trenton,  Missouri,  would  reach  him,  but  the  letter  was  returned  to 
me  unclaimed.  Our  Deputy  Grand  Master  has  been  acting  as  Grand 
Master.  Our  Lodges  need  the  help  and  attention  of  a  Grand  Master, 
and  his  ahsenting  himself  from  the  Jurisdiction  is  hurting  the  Order 
here  and  we  feel  that  for  the  good  of  the  Order  in  this  Jurisdiction 
the  office  of  Grand  Master  should  be  declared  vacant  and  the  Deputy 
Grand  Master  installed.  I  enclose  letter  I  (Grand  Secretary)  received 
from  the  Deputy  Grand  Master  this  morning;  also  one  I  received  from 
the  President  of  the  Rebekah  Assembly,  which  more  fully  explains 
the  situation. 

We  do  not  want  to  do  the  Grand  Master  any  injustice,  but  we  must 
do  what  is  for  the  interest  of  the  Order  here,  so  I  join  with  the  Deputy 
Grand  Master  in  requesting  that  the  office  of  Grand  Master  be  declared 
vacant  and  requesting  that  a  Past  Grand  Master  be  authorized  to 
install  the  Deputy  Grand  Master  into  the  Grand  Master's  office. 

Answer.- — As  to  whether  the  Grand  Master  has  vacated  his  office 
and  how  to  fill  the  same  should  be  covered  by  your  local  laws.  The 
Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Busbee's  Digest,  1241,  has  held  an  officer  can- 
not be  displaced  during  the  term  for  which  he  is  elected  for  non- 
attendance  in  the  absence  of-any  constitutional  provision  or  by-laws. 
It  has  also  held,  Busbee's  Digest,  1240,  if  a  Grand1  Master  after  instal- 
lation removed  from  his  Jurisdiction  and  abandons  his  work,  his  office 
may  be  declared  vacant,  and  the  Deputy  Grand  Master  becomes  Grand 
Master  in  accordance  with  the  Constitution  which  provides  that  "the 
Deputy  Grand  Master  shall  become  Grand  Master  in  case  of  a  vacancy 
during  the  term."  See  1886  Journal,  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  10.253, 
10,487,  10,511.  If  the  Grand  Master  has  permanently  removed  from 
your  Jurisdiction  there  is  undoubtedly  a  vacancy. 

I  am  unaware  of  any  law  that  gives  me  the  authority  to  declare 
the  office  vacant  and  remove  the  Grand  Master,  and  it  certainly  would 
be   improper  for  me   to  do  so  ex  parte  statement   if   I  did   have  the 


342  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  { Yov^llf3^ 


I  Nov.    18,    1913. 


authority.  Your  local  laws  must  make  some  provision  covering  this 
matter,  and  if  not  you  would  have  to  point  out  to  me  some  law  author- 
izing me  to  act  in  the  premises  before  I  would  do  so. 

Dec.  45.  Statement. — The  Original  charter  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of 
New  Jersey,  dated  August  3,  1833,  provides  "that  the  said  Grand  Lodge 
of  the  State  of  New  Jersey  shall  be  held  at  Trenton,  and  not  to  be 
removed  therefrom  without  the  consent  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the 
United  States." 

Section  5,  of  Art.  VI,  of  the  Constitution  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of 
New  Jersey,  which  has  been  approved  by  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge, 
reads  as  follows: 

"All  regular  annual  meetings  of  the  Grand  Lodge  shall  be  held 
in  the  city  of  Trenton,  unless  otherwise  specifically  directed  by  a 
majority  vote  of  the  members  present  at  any  regudar  meeting." 

Question. — The  Constitution  having  been  approved  by  the  Sover- 
eign Grand  Lodge,  does  it  amend  the  charter,  in  so  far  as  this  is  a  con- 
tradiction to  the  charter  provision,  in  regard  to  the  session  of  the 
Grand  Lodge,  upon  the  proposition,  that  although  the  charter  is  an 
organic  law,  it  was  given  by  the  same  power,  granted  by  the  same 
authority,  which  subsequently  stated  that  under  the  Constitution  of  the 
Body  which  this  charter  provided,  this  Body  could  constitutionally 
hold  its  annual  sessions  where  a  majority  of  its  members  decided, 
does  the  constitutional  provision  abrogate  the  charter? 

Answer. — The  provisions  of  your  charter  and  Constitution  having 
both  been  approved  by  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  they  should  be  so 
construed  as  to  provide  no  conflict,  if  possible. 

While  your  charter  states  your  annual  sessions  shall  be  held  in 
the  city  of  Trenton,  I  think  when  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  approved 
your  present  Grand  Lodge  Constitution,  it  so  modified  the  charter  as 
to  give  the  majority  of  the  members  of  your  Grand  Lodge  a  right  to 
say  where  the  next  session  of  your  Grand  Lodge  shall  be  held.  In 
other  words,  both  under  your  charter  and  under  your  Constitution, 
Trenton  is  the  place  of  holding  your  regular  sessions,  unless  a 
majority  of  the  members  of  your  Grand  Lodge,  at  a  regular  session, 
directs  that  the  next  meeting  shall  be  held  elsewhere. 

Grand  Encampment  Decisions. 
Dec.  46.  Statement. — It  has  been  the  custom  in  this  jurisdiction  to 
present  to  our  retiring  Grand  Patriarch  a  Past  Grand  Patriarch's  Jewel, 
of  the  design  specified  in  Sec.  32,  page  754,  Busbee's  Digest,  the  jewel 
being  of  greater  value  and  more  elaborate  in  appointments  than  that  of 
the  new  Past  Grand  Patriarch's  Jewel  to  be  sold  by  the  Sovereign 
Grand  Lodge.  It  is  fully  conceded  that  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
Jewel  is  the  only  one  that  can  be  worn  in  lieu  of  regalia;  but  as  our 


Tuesday,        j       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  343 


Nov.    IS,    1913 


Grand  Patriarch,  and  those  who  succeed  him,  may  desire  to  have 
jewels  of  the  same  design  and  quality  as  their  predecessors  in  this 
jurisdiction : 

Question. — I  ask  to  be  advised  whether  it  is  mandatory  upon  us  to 
procure  the  Past  Grand  Patriarch's  Jewel  sold  by  the  Sovereign  Grand 
Lodge,  or  whether  it  is  optional  to  have  our  own  jewel  made  as  here- 
tofore, it  being  understood  that,  while  they  are  Past  Grand  Patriarch's 
Jewels,  they  can  not  be  used  in  place  of  regalia. 

Answer. — After  carefully  considering  the  legislation  of  the 
Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  at  the  sessions  of  1911  and  1912,  I  am  of  the 
opinion  that  it  is  mandatory  upon  you  to  procure  the  Past  Grand  Pa- 
triarch's Jewel  sold  by  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge. 

Miscellaneous  Decisions. 

Dec.  47.  Statement. — The  agent  for  "The  Loyal  Protective  Insur- 
ance Company,"  of  Boston,  Massachusetts,  claims  to  have  received 
authority  from  the  Grand  Masters  of  several  Jurisdictions  to  solicit 
business  for  his  company.  He  carries  very  flattering  credentials  from 
Grand  Secretaries  of  several  Jurisdictions,  and  asks  authority  to 
solicit  from  Lodges  in  this  jurisdiction.  The  advertising  matter  does 
not  contain  any  of  the  emblems  of  the  Order,  but  advertises  'for  Odd 
Fellows  only." 

Question. — Can  such  a  permission  be  legally  given? 

Answer. — Under  Sec.  478  of  Busbee's  Digest  it  would  be  illegal  for 
an  insurance  association  to  use  the  emblems  or  name  of  the  Order. 
This  the  Loyal  does  not  seem  to  do.  It  does  advertise  "for  Odd  Fellows 
only/'  but  this  is  permissible  by  Art.  480  of  Busbee's  Digest. 

You  will  also  see  under  Sec.  848  of  Busbee's  Digest  that  such  com- 
panies are  not  recognized  by  the  Order  and  I  can  not  understand  what 
right  Grand  Masters  have  to  grant  any  permits  to  it  to  do  business.  It 
•is  but  another  way  of  getting  an  illegal  endorsement  in  the  name  of  the 
Order.  See  Busbee's  Digest,  Sections  841  to  852.  See  also  Journal 
1895,  pages  76,  296  and  291. 

As  long  as  the  Loyal  uses  none  of  the  emblems  of  the  Order  and 
does  not  advertise  as  an  Odd  Fellows'  Insurance  Company,  though  it 
may  advertise  "for  Odd  Fellows  only,"  it  does  not  seem  to  be  violating 
the  law,  but  it  has  no  right  to  solicit  insurance  in  a  Lodge  while  it  is 
in  session,  nor  has  any  Grand  Master  the  right  or  authority  to  recog- 
nize it  by  giving  permission  to  solicit  or  otherwise,  as  it  might  in- 
fluence members  of  our  Order  to  join,  thinking  it  was  an  Odd  Fellows' 
organization. 

The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  at  Indianapolis  passed  upon  a  de- 
cision of  the  Grand  Sire  in  relation  to  the  Loyal  Protective  Insurance 
Company,  Journal  1911,  pages  293  and  313. 


344  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  j  NovTUisda^13. 

You  will  find  on  examination  of  that  decision  the  Grand  Sire  holds 
that  it  is  a  private  enterprise  and  that  it  is  not  in  conformity  with  the 
laws  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  to  use  the  names  of  members  of  the 
Order  as  members  of  the  Order,  or  as  officers  of  the  Lodge,  to  promote 
a  private  business.  He  further  holds  that  it  is  unlawful  for  a  brother  to 
act  as  agent  or  promote  the  interest  of  an  insurance  company,  which 
uses  in  its  advertisement  matter  circulars,  etc.,  official  endorsements 
of  Grand  Officers  or  Past  Grand  Officers,  using  their  official  titles. 
It  can  make  no  difference  whether  such  use  is  through  advertisements 
in  publications  or  by  private  distribution  of  cards,  circulars,  etc. 

Dec.  83.  Statement. — The  Constitution  of  Subordinate  Lodges  of 
this  Jurisdiction,  Sec.  2,  Art.  IV,  provides: 

"Every  member  qualified,  as  required  by  the  by-laws  of  this 
Lodge,  shall,  in  case  of  being  disabled  by  sickness  or  bodily  accident 
(not  occasioned  by  drunkenness  or  other  immoral  conduct  on  his 
part),  from  following  any  occupation,  or  otherwise  earning  a  liveli- 
hood, be  entitled  to  and  may  receive  such  weekly  benefits  as  may  be 
fixed  by  by-law,  from  the  funds  of  the  Lodge;  provided,  always, 
that  such  benefits  shall  not  exceed  the  rate  of  ten  dollars  per  week  for 
each  dollar  of  monthly  contribution,  and  provided,  always,  that  no 
Lodge  shall  continue  to  pay  the  above  rate  of  benefits  for  a  longer 
period  than  six  months'  continuous  sickness,  after  which  time  it  shall 
not  exceed  the  sum  of  seven  dollars  and  fifty  cents  for  each  dollar  of 
monthly  contribution ;  and,  further,  that,  after  the  expiration  of  twelve 
months'  continuous  sickness,  no  Lodge  shall  pay  greater  benefits  than 
at  a  rate  of  five  dollars  per  week  for  each  dollar  of  monthly  contri- 
bution.    *     *     *" 

Section  7,  of  Art.  IV,  provides  that  "Lodges  may  provide  by  by- 
law to  employ  a  physician  to  attend  members  in  good  standing  when 
sick,  and  pay  a  stipulated  sum  per  annum  for  such  services  out  of  the 
funds." 

Question. — Is  it  lawful  for  any  Subordinate  Lodge  to  pay  sick 
benefits  of  $10.00  per  week  to  any  member  and  also  supply  a  doctor 
and  medicine  on  a  basis  of  $12.00  per  year  dues? 

Answer. — It  would  be  lawful  to  pay  $10.00  per  week  sick  benefits 
and  furnish  a  physician  in  addition,  but  not  medicine. 

Dec.  84.  Statement. — Section  10  of  Art.  XII  of  the  uniform  con- 
stitution for  Subordinate  Lodges,  provided  by  the  Grand  Lodge  I.  O. 
O.  F.  of  Colorado,  reads  as  follows: 

"ASSESSMENT  FOR  ADDITIONAL  FUNERAL  BENEFIT. 
Section  10.     This  Lodge  may,  by  a  by-law,  provide  that,  on  the 
death  of  a  member  entitled  to  benefits,  each  surviving  member  shall  be

Tuesday         \       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  345 

Isov.    18,    1913.  \ 1 

assessed  a  stated  amount,  which  shall  be  charged  and  collected  as 
other  dues,  and  shall  be  paid  to  the  widow  or  children  of  the  de- 
ceased brother  when  collected,  in  addition  to  the  funeral  benefit  pro- 
vided for  in  Sec.  9  of  this  article.  But  no  such  assessment  shall  be 
made  unless  the  brother  deceased  shall  have  left  a  widow  or  children 
surviving  him." 

Question  1. — Is  it  lawful  for  a  Subordinate  Lodge  to  provide  by 
by-law,  after  stating  the  amount  to  be  assessed  and  collected,  that  the 
widow,  in  order  to  be  entitled  to  this  benefit,  shall  have  been  living 
with  the  deceased  brother  at  the  time  of  his  death,  or  that  surviving 
children  shall  be  minor  and  dependent  children,  to  be  entitled  to  the 
benefits? 

Answer. — Under  the  foregoing  constitutional  provision  a  Sub- 
ordinate Lodge  can  not,  by  its  by-laws,  deprive  the  widow  of  her  right 
to  the  funeral  benefit  when  she  is  the  lawful  wife  of  a  member  who 
dies  in  good  standing.  Busbee,  119.  It  may  provide  that  if  there  is  no 
widow  it  shall  be  paid  to  the  minor  dependent  children. 

Question  2. — Would  it  be  lawful  for  the  Grand  Lodge  to  make 
such  qualifications  in  the  uniform  constitution  for  Subordinate  Lodges? 

Answer. — Yes. 

Question  3. — Can  a  Grand  Lodge  legally  provide  that  any  other 
person  than  the  widow  or  children  of  a  deceased  brother,  as,  for  in- 
stance, a  mother,  sister,  grandchild  or  other  persons  designated  by  the 
brother  before  his  death,  may  receive  said  "additional  funeral  benefit?" 

Answer. — A  brother  has  no  property  right  in  the  funeral  benefit 
to  be  paid  at  his  death  and  can  not  dispose  of  it  or  designate  who  may 
receive  it.  That  is  provided  by  the  local  law.  Busbee,  108.  The  Grand 
Lodge  can  legally  provide,  in  the  absence  of  widow  and  children,  that 
the  mother,  sister,  or  other  dependent  relative  may  be  entitled  to  the 
funeral  benefit.     Busbee,  111,  112,  113. 

Question  4. — May  a  Subordinate  Lodge  by  by-law  provide  that 
assessments  levied  under  Sec.  10,  Art.  XII,  of  the  constitution  above 
quoted,  shall  be  "charged  as  dues"  at  some  definite  time,  as  "at  the 
end  of  the  current  term,"  or  "end  of  the  current  quarter,"  or  must 
such  assessment  be  made  and  charged  against  all  surviving  brothers 
immediately  upon  the  death  of  the  brother? 

Answer. — The  assessment  should  be  made  immediately  upon  the 
death  of  the  brother  against  all  surviving  members. 

Question  5. — Is  it  lawful  for  a  Subordinate  Lodge  that,  under  a 
constitutional  provision,  enacts  a  by-law  assessing  a  fine  of  one  dollar 
for  not  attending  the  funeral  of  a  brother,  to  also  provide  that  attend- 
ing the  ceremonies  or  services  at  the  house  or  at  the  church  shall  be 
considered  as  attending  the  funeral? 


346  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  [  Vv, -^I^ic 


I  Xtov.    18.    1913. 


Answer. — I  think  it  would  be  lawful  for  a  Subordinate  Lodge  to 
enact  such  a  by-law. 

Dec.  85.  Question. — What  is  the  penalty  for  a  Lodge  taking  a 
candidate  who  resides  within  the  jurisdiction  of  another  Lodge  without 
obtaining  permission? 

Answer. — That  depends  to  some  extent  on  your  local  law,  which 
you  have  not  furnished  me.  The  general  rule  is  that  no  person  can 
be  admitted  to  membership  in  a  Lodge  other  than  the  one  nearest 
his  residence  without  the  consent  of  such  nearest  Lodge.  Busbee's 
Digest,  907.  The  punishment  for  this  offense  isi  the  forfeiture  to 
the  Lodge  having  jurisdiction  of  the  initiation  and  degree  fees  and 
of  all  dues  received  from  said  member  while  he  shall  retain  his 
membership  in  such  Lodge.  See  Report  137  of  Committee  on  Legis- 
lation, 1906  Journal,  pp.  777  and  784. 

Dec.  86.  Question. — Can  a  man  of  Arabian  blood, become  an  Odd 
Fellow? 

Answer. — Yes,  if  he  is  of  the  pure  white  Caucasian  race.  1858 
Journal  2698,  2948,  2973.  JTnder  the  tables  of  Ethnology  contained 
in  TV  Nelson's  Encyclopedia,  491-494,  I  find  that  under  the  head  of 
Caucasians,  the  Semitic  races  are  included  and  divided  as  follows1: 
(1)  Jocktanides:  Proto-Arabs  (Minaeans,  Sabaeans,  Himyarites, 
Abyssinians.)  (2)  Ishmaelites:  Nomad  Arabs.  (3)  Assyrians:  Chal- 
deans. (4)  Aramaeans:  Syrians,  H.ittites  (?),  'Nestorians.'  (5) 
Canaanites:  Israelites,  Moabites,  Amorites,  Idumaeans,  Philistines, 
Phoenicians,  Carthaginians.  I  therefore  hold  that  an  Arabian  of  pure 
blood  is  a  pure  white  Caucasian  and  entitled  to  membership  in  our 
Order. 

Dec.  87.  Question. — Can  an  Odd  Fellow  Lodge  lease  its  hall  to 
another  order  or  society  that  uses  beer  as  a  drink  at  its  banquets  or 
suppers? 

Answer. — I  do  not  know  of  any  law  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
that  would  prevent  it.  It  would  cease  to  be  an  Odd  Fellows'  Lodge 
room  during  the  time  the  other  order  or  society  was  using  it. 

Dec.  88.  Statement. — A  husband's  application  for  initiation  into 
a  Subordinate  Lodge  has  been  favorably  balloted  upon,  but  before  he 
has  been  initiated  his  wife  is  induced  by  members  of  the  Rebekah 
Lodge  in  the  same  city  to  make  application  for  initiation  into  the 
Rebekah  Lodge,  under  the  belief  that  the  husband  will  be  initiated 
into  the  Subordinate  Lodge. 

Question. — Is  the  wife  a  member  of  the  Rebekah  Lodge,  and  if 
so  what  ought  the  Grand  Master  to  advise  in  the  premises  in  respect 
to  the  status  of  the  wife? 


NovTU18dai913. 1       GRAND  L0DGE  0F  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F. 347 

Answer. — As  there  seems  to  have  been  no  deception,  fraud  or 
wilful  concealment  practiced  by  the  applicant,  and  as  the  Rebekah 
Lodge  seems  to  have  known  all  the  facts  in  the  case  and  acted  in 
good  faith,  but  illegally,  and  is  liable  to  discipline  therefore,  I  hold 
that  the  sister  is  entitled  to  all  the  rights  and  privileges  in  the  Lodge 
until  her  membership  is  terminated  in  a  lawful  manner.  See  Busbee's 
Digest,  Sees.  995  and  996.    Also,  1905  Journal,  33,  220,  224. 

Dec.  89.  Question. — Is  it  allowable  under  the  laws  of  the  Order 
for  members  of  the  Order,  as  individuals,  or  combinations  of  indi- 
viduals, at  their  own  expense,  to  place  a  "memorial  window"  in  a 
church,  such  window  containing  some  of  the  emblems  of  the  Order  of 
Odd  Fellows? 

Answer. — Yes.     See  Journal  1911.     Decision  18,  page  19. 

Dec.  90.  Question. — Is  a  badge  bearing  the  colors,  "pink  and 
green,"  but  also  a  "United  States  flag"  upon  the  same  ribbon,  the 
regulation  badge  prescribed  by  Sec.  25,  of  tbe  Rebekah  Code? 

Answer. — No. 

Dec.  91.  Question. — Can  a  sister  who  has  been  in  good  standing 
in  a  Lodge  for  fifteen  consecutive  years,  and  is  entitled  to  wear  a 
Rebekah  Veteran  Jewel  as  per  Sec.  2624  of  Busbee's  Digest,  be  con- 
sidered an  honorary  member  and  be  entitled  to  the  same  privileges  as 
accorded  an  honorary  member  of  the  Subordinate  Lodge,  and  thus 
render  her  exempt  from  payment  of  dues? 

Answer.— In  Journal  of  1906,  pp.  442,  675,  709,  it  has  been  held  by 
the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  that  the  law  covered  by  Busbee's  Digest, 
905,  does  not  apply  to  the  Rebekah  branch  of  the  Order. 

Dec.  92.  Question. — Does  Sec.  905,  of  Busbee's  Digest,  apply  to 
members  of  the  Rebekah  branch  of  Odd  Fellowship,  including  the 
sisters? 

Answer.— No.     See  1906  Journal,  442,  675,  709. 

Dec.  93.  Statement. — A  Patriarch  who  has  never  held  an  elective 
or  appointive  office  was  elected  to  the  office  of  Senior  Warden  in  an 
Encampment  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge. 
The  constitution  and  by-laws  of  the  Encampment  are  silent  on  the 
matter. 

Question. — Is  any  Royal  Purple  degree  member  eligible  to  election 
to  the  office  of  Senior  Warden,  whether  he  has  served  a  term  in  an 
elective  or  appointive  office? 

Answer. — No.     See  Busbee's  Digest,  Sees.  1375,  1376,  1377. 

Dec.  95.  Statement. — Article  III,  Sec.  1,  of  the  constitution  of  the 
Grand  Encampment  of  the  Maritime  Provinces  of  Canada,  says:  "The 
elective  officers  of  the  Grand  Encampment  shall  be  Grand  Patriarach,

Grand  High  Priest,  Grand  Senior  Warden,  Grand  Scribe,  Grand  Treas- 
urer, Grand  Junior  Warden  and  Grand  Representatives." 

Question. — Are  the  Grand  Representatives  of  the  Grand  Encamp- 
ment of  the  Maritime  Provinces  of  Canada  officers  of  said  Grand 
Encampment? 

Answer. — Your  Constitution  makes  them  officers  of  your  Grand 
Encampment.

CONSTITUTION. 
ARTICLE    I. 

General    Provisions.

Report  No.  17.  By  Rep.  Leedy,  of  Indiana,  from  the  Committee  on 
Printing  Supplies: 

To  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Committee  on  Printing  [Supplies  to  whom  was  referred  Reso- 
lution No.  2,  amending  Section  1  of  Article  XXVIII  of  the  By-Laws  of 
The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  increasing  the  Committee  on  Printing

Resolution  No.  5. 
Rep.  Trautmann,  of  New  York,  moved  the  following,  which  was 
referred  to  the  Committee  on  the  State  of  the  Order: 

Whereas,  There  is  frequent  request  made  to  Grand  Masters  for 
dispensation  to  lay  a  cornerstone  or  dedicate  a  Lodge  building  on 
Sunday;  and 

Whereas.  These  requests  are  granted  by  some  Grand  Masters  and 
not  by  others,  according  to  their  individual  understanding  of  the  law; 
and

Whereas,  The  ceremony  of  the  laying  of  a  cornerstone  or  the  dedi- 
cation of  an  Odd  Fellows'  Temple  is  in  itself  of  a  religious  nature  and 
would  seem  not  to  violate  any  sentiment  we  may  have  for  the  day;  and 

Whereas,  It  is  now  proper  to  hold  Memorial  and  Anniversary  ser- 
vices on  Sunday;  and 

Whereas,  In  many  cases  it  would  be  a  great  convenience  to  lay  a 
cornerstone  or  dedicate  a  temple  on  Sunday,  thus  assuring  a  larger 
attendance  of  our  members  who  are  employed  during  the  week  days; 
therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  when  in  the  judgment  of  a  Grand  Master  it  will 
be  to  the  interest  of  all  concerned  to  hold  such  ceremony  on  Sunday, 
after  satisfying  himself  that  there  shall  be  nothing  done  or  attempted 
that  will  tend  to  desecrate  the  day,  he  may  grant  dispensation  to  lay 
a  cornerstone  or  dedicate  an  Odd  Fellows'  Temple  on  Sunday  according 
to  forms  prescribed  by  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge.

mittee: 
To  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Committee  on  the  State  of  the  Order,  to  whom  was  referred 
Resolution  No.  5,  page  29,  from  the  Representatives  of  the  Jurisdiction 
of  New  York,  asking  that  authority  be  given  Grand  Masters  to  grant 
dispensations  for  the  laying  of  corner  stones  of  new  buildings  for  the 
purposes  of  the  Order  or  for  dedicating  Lodge  buildings  on  Sunday, 
after  carefully  considering  the  same,  beg  leave  to  report  that,  in  their 
opinion,  it  is  not  advisable  for  this  Grand  Body  to  grant  such  authority 
to  Grand  Masters. 

Signed  by  the  Committee. 

Rep.  Davis,  of  Illinois,  moved,  as  a  substitute  for  the  report,  that 
Resolution  5,  page  29,  be  adopted,  which  was  agreed  to  and  Resolution 
No.  5,  page  29,  was  adopted. 

Resolution  No.  6. 

Rep.  Davis,  of  Illinois,  moved  the  following,  which  was  referred 
to  the  Committee  on  Legislation: 

Whereas,  Our  Order  has  grown  so  wonderfully  during  the  last  half 
century,  and  its  marvelous  growth  has  resulted  in  making  a  large 
number  of  our  Grand  Bodies  having  a  Representative  system  unwieldy 
for  thoughtful  deliberation;  and 

Whereas,  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  in  the  election  of  its  officers, 
limits  the  voting  to  duly  accredited  Grand  Representatives,  neither 
Past  Grand  Sires  nor  Past  Grand  Representatives,  nor  Past  Grands 
being  permitted  to  vote  for  Officers  of  The  Sovereign  Body;  therefore, 
be  it

Resolved.  That  Grand  Bodies  are  hereby  permitted  by  amendment 
to  their  Constitutions  to  provide  for  the  election  of  their  officers  by 
Past  Grands  who  are  the  duly  accredited  Representatives  of  the  sub- 
ordinate bodies  under  the  jurisdiction  of  said  Grand  Bodies. 

Report  No.  151.     By  Rep.  Harman,  of  Indiana,  from  the  Committee 
on  Legislation: 
To  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Committee  on  Legislation,  to  whom  was  referred  Resolution 
No.  6,  page  30,  by  Representatives  from  Illinois,  have  had  the  same 
under  consideration,  and  would  report  that  we  have  fully  investigated 
the  subject  matter  thereof  and  believe  that  legislation  is  unnecessary, 
and  ask  to  be  relieved  from  further  consideration  of  the  same. 

Signed  by  the  Committee. 

Rep.  Davis,  of  Illinois,  moved,  as  a  substitute,  that  the  resolution 
be  adopted,  which  was  agreed  to. 

Resolution    No.  44. 

Rep.  Brown,  of  Illinois,  moved  the  following,  which  was  referred 
to  the  Committee  on  Odd  Fellows'  Home: 

Whereas,  It  is  a  common  thing  for  the  children  and  old  people  in 
our  Homes  to  be  called  "inmates";  and 

Whereas,  This  is  a  term  used  in  connection  with  charitable  and 
penal  institutions:  therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  the  word  "resident"  be  used  instead  of  "inmate," 
as  applied  to  the  residents  of  our  Homes.

Your  Committee  on  Odd  Fellows'  Homes,  to  whom  was  referred 
Resolution  No.  44,  page  92,  have  carefully  considered  the  same,  and 
recommend  its  adoption.

advance,  and  being  elected  as  provided  by  local  law,  upon  notice  being 
sent  by  the  Secretary  or  Scribe  to  his  Lodge  or  Encampment,  said 
Lodge  or  Encampment  shall,  unless  charges  are  pending  against  him, 
without  ballot  and  without  fee,  issue  a  transfer  certificate  and  send 
the  same  at  once  to  the  Secretary  or  Scribe  sending  for  the  same; 
and,  upon  the  receipt  of  the  transfer  certificate,  the  member  shall 
be  entitled  to  sign  the  Constitution  and  become  a  member  of  the  new 
Lodge  or  Encampment  without  the  payment  of  any  admission  fee; 
provided,  that  if  a  physician's  certificate  is  required  he  must  pay  the 
expenses  for  the  same. 

The  Secretary  or  Scribe  shall  immediately  report  to  the  Secretary 
or  Scribe  of  the  Lodge  or  Encampment  issuing  the  transfer  certificate 
the  date  of  signing  the  Constitution  of  the  new  Lodge  or  Encampment, 
and  he  shall  make  a  record  thereof,  and  the  old  Lodge  or  Encampment 
shall  immediately  refund  to  the  member  all  dues  paid  in  advance  of  the 
date  of  signing  the  Constitution  of  the  new  Lodge  or  Encampment. 

The  issuing  of  a  transfer  certificate  shall  sever  membership  in 
the  Lodge  or  Encampment  issuing  it;  provided,  that,  if  a  member 
becomes  sick  or  disabled,  or  should  die  before  the  date  to  which  his 
dues  are  paid  and  before  completing  his  membership  by  signing  the 
Constitution  of  his  new  Lodge  or  Encampment,  then  said  transfer 
certificate  shall  be  cancelled  and  returned  to  the  Lodge  or  Encamp- 
ment issuing  the  same,  and  said  member  shall  retain  his  beneficial 
standing  in  his  old  Lodge  or  Encampment,  the  same  as  though  the 
transfer  certificate  had  not  been  issued. 

If  the  member  fails  to  sign  the  Constitution  of  the  new  Lodge  or 
Encampment  within  three  months  after  the  date  of  his  election,  the 
transfer  certificate  shall  be  cancelled  and  returned  to  the  Lodge  or 
Encampment  issuing  the  same  and  the  member  shall  hold  the  same 
standing  in  his  old  Lodge  or  Encampment  as  though  the  transfer  cer- 
tificate had  not  been  issued. 

Provided,  That  the  foregoing  shall  not  extend  to  or  affect  the 
Quasi-Independent  Grand  Jurisdictions. 

That  after  a  member  of  a  Rebekah  Lodge  has  become  sixty  years 
of  age  and  has  been  a  contributing  member  for  twenty-five  consecutive 
years,  his  or  her  name  shall  not  be  dropped  from  the  roll  by  virtue  of 
his  or  her  being  more  than  one  year  in  arrears  for  non-payment  of 
dues,  but  he  or  she  shall  be  retained  as  a  non-contributing  member 
and  as  such  shall  be  entitled  to  the  pass  words  and  fellowship  of 
Lodges  and  shall  have  all  the  privileges  of  active  members,  and  the 
Rebekah  Lodge  shall  not  be  compelled  to  pay  per  capita  tax  on  such 
members.

That  it  is  the  sentiment  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  that 
corporal  punishment  should  be  abolished  from  all  Odd  Fellows'  Homes 
and  milder  and  more  humane  methods  of  correction  should  be  used. 

A  Grand  Body  may  provide  in  its  Constitution  that  Grand  Repre- 
sentatives shall  be  recognized  as  elective  officers  thereof,  but  this 
shall  in  no  wise  render  them  ineligible  to  any  other  elective  office 
in  such  Grand  Body. 

That  the  Committee  on  Printing  Supplies  be  authorized  and  em- 
powered to  have  any  or  all  of  the  odes,  now  used  and  controlled  by  this 
Sovereign  Body,  sung  into  and  placed  upon  record  plates,  so  that  the 
same  may  be  obtained  and  used  in  the  Lodges  throughout  the  different 
jurisdictions. 

REPORTS    SUBMITTED    AND    ADOPTED. 

Report  No.  126.     By  Rep.  Rinehart,  of  Florida,  from  the  Special 
Committee  on  Codification  of  Laws: 
To  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Special  Committee  on  Codification  of  Laws  report  that  con- 
siderable progress  in  the  work  of  codification  has  been  made;  the 
research  and  analytical  character  of  the  same  has  made  the  task 
arduous  and  has  required  practically  constant  devotion  of  time.  At 
one  period  during  the  progress  of  the  work  it  seemed  to  your  com- 
mittee, by  reason  of  the  confusion  of  the  many  laws  created  and 
enumerated  by  the  numerous  committees  of  this  Grand  Body,  that 
codification  was  not  possible,  but  as  the  work  advanced  the  difficulties 
were  overcome  and  your  committee  are  able  to  assure  the  Grand 
Body  that  the  work  will  be  completed  and  ready  for  presentation  at 
the  next  annual  session.  Your  committee,  therefore,  offer  the  follow- 
ing: 

Resolved,  That  leave  be  given  the  committee  to  continue  the 
work  and  report  next  session,  and  that  their  report,  together  with  the 
codification,  be  printed  when  ready,  and  placed  upon  the  desks  of  the 
members  of  the  Grand  Body  at  the  next  session. 

Report  No.  119.  By  Rep.  Brown,  of  Illinois,  from  the  Committee 
on  Odd  Fellows'  Homes: 

To  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Committee  on  Odd  Fellows'  Homes,  to  whom  were  referred 
the  reports  of  the  Grand  Secretary  on  the  Homes  and  Superintendents 
and  Matrons  of  the  Homes,  report  that  we  have  carefully  considered 
the  same  and  from  them  have  compiled  the  following,  which  we  submit 
to  you: 


364  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  [. 


I  Nov.    IS.    1013. 


Maximum  cost  of  maintaining  a  resident  a  year $592.00 

Minimum  cost  of  maintaining  a  resident  a  year 60.00 

Average  cost  of  maintaining  a  resident  a  year 182.12 

And  we  regret  to  have  to  report  that  a  few  Grand  Secretaries  and 
almost  half  of  the  superintendents  and  matrons  of  our  Homes  have 
failed  to  comply  with  the  resolution  of  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
requiring  report  of,  and  from,  the  Homes. 

The  difference  in  average  and  maximum  cost  of  maintenance  per 
year  would  be  better  disclosed  if  superintendents  and  matrons  were 
required  to  make  a  more  detailed  report.  With  the  very  meager  data 
at  the  command  of  your  committee,  it  is  impossible  to  lay  any  valuable 
facts  relating  to  this  question  before  this  Grand  Gody. 

We  recommend  that  the  report  blank  be  revised  so  as  to  show  in 
the  fullest  manner  all  data  of  expense. 

Report  No.   120.  By  Rep.  Brown,  of  Illinois,  from  the  same  com- 
mittee: 
To  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Committee  on  Odd  Fellows'  Homes,  to  whom  was  referred 
that  part  of  the  Grand  Sire's  report  bearing  on  Odd  Fellows'  Homes, 
and  pages  16  to  22,  of  Grand  Secretary's  report,  respectfully  submit 
the  following: 

We  have  carefully  considered  the  information  contained  in  the 
reports  of  our  Grand  Sire  and  Grand  Secretary  relative  to  our  Homes 
and  find  as  follows: 

The  present  value  of  the  property  used  for  the  Home  purposes 
amounts  to  $4,915,170.39,  an  increase  of  $437,000.00  during  the  year, 
almost  twice  the  increase  of  1911. 

A  few  states'  and  provinces  are  still  without  Homes  but  are  raising 
funds  and  perfecting  plans  for  their  erection  and,  in  the  meantime, 
arrangements  are  made  for  the  care  of  the  orphans  and  indigent 
brothers  and  sisters. 

Members  of  the  committee  have  attended  the  meetings  of  the 
Odd  Fellows'  National  Home  Association  and  we  commend  most 
deeply  the  great  benefit  our  superintendents  and  matrons  derive  from 
attendance  at  these  meetings,  and  most  respectfully  urge  all  Grand 
Jurisdictions  in  which  Homes  are  located  to  send  a  delegate  to  the 
association  meetings.

mittee   on    International   Relations,   have   considered   the   subject   and 
beg  leave  to  submit  the  following  report: 

We  share  and  commend  the  sentiments  expressed  by  the  Committee 
on  International  Relations,  and  also  the  sentiments  expressed  in  the 
correspondence  of  the  Grand  Sire  with  Mr.  Paul  Gerlach,  Grand  Sire, 
I.  0.  O.  F.,  Berlin,  Germany  (page  110,  Grand  Sire's  Report),  but  we 
deem  it  inexpedient  for  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  to  make  any  direct 
appropriation  at  this  time  from  its  treasury.  We  believe  the  move- 
ment in  behalf  of  the  Peace  Monument  at  The  Hague  should,  be  en- 
couraged and  supported,  but  by  individual  contributions  from  members 
of  our  Order  rather  than  by  the  use  of  any  funds  belonging  to  sub- 
ordinate bodies. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  Grand  Sire  be  authorized  to 
send  out  any  proclamation  that  may  to  him  seem  appropriate  calling 
for  individual  contributions  for  this  purpose  but  not  authorizing 
appropriations  therefor  from  Lodge  funds. 

We  also  recornmend  that  Grand  Bodies  be  given  authority  to 
appropriate  from  their  Grand  Treasuries  as  they  may  deem  expedient 
for  the  purpose. 

Report  No.  140.     By  Rep.  Pond,  of  Connecticut,  from  Special  Com- 
mittee on  Erection  of  a  Temple: 
To  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Special  Committee  appointed  at  the  last  communication  with 
instructions  to  report  on  the  feasibility  of  the  erection  of  a  Temple 
for  the  accommodation  of  this  Grand  Body  have  had  the  subject  matter 
of  such  reference  under  consideration  during  the  past  year  and  beg 
to  report  that  we  are  of  the  opinion  that  the  experiences  of  the 
past  few  sessions  clearly  indicate  the  desirability  of  having  a  permanent 
and  commodious  building  for  the  transaction  of  the  rapidly  increasing 
business  of  the  Order. 

While  we  appreciate  the  kind  and  liberal  provisions  made  for  us 
by  the  brotherhood  at  our  various  meeting  places,  we  must  all  recognize 
the  facts  that  it  is  an  unwarranted  burden  on  entertaining  jurisdictions 
and  that  the  want  of  proper  facilities  seriously  hampers  the  regular 
and  orderly  transaction  of  our  business. 

It  is  further  quite  apparent  that  the  extra  cost  of  our  sessions 
because  of  our  nomadic  habits  is  very  large,  in  fact,  so  large  as  to 
easily  pay  a  handsome  return  on  a  sum  entirely  adequate  to  build  and 
equip  a  suitable  building.  Many  other  considerations  might  be  sug- 
gested, but  we  believe  they  are  evident  to  all  and  need  no  enumeration 
here.     We,  therefore,  recommend  the  following: 

Resolved,  That  a  committee  of  five  be  appointed  to  ascertain  the 
probable  cost  of  a  suitable  site  for  such  a  building. as  will  be  needed

and  the  cost  and  design  thereof.  Further,  that  said  committee  investi- 
gate as  to  the  most  suitable  location  of  said  building  and  make  report 
of  all  their  findings  at  the  next  annual  communication.

Report  No.  71.     By  Past  Grand  Sire  Campbell,  from  the  Special 
Committee  on  Sovereign  Odd  Fellow: 
To  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Your  Special  Committee,  to  whom  was  referred  the  subject  matter 
on  pp.  112-117  of  the  Grand  Sire's  Report,  have  reviewed  the  reference 
carefully,  together  with  all  the  correspondence,  and  find  the  facts  in 
brief  to  be  these: 

Bro.  A.  C.  Veach,  of  Gravette,  Arkansas,  publisher  of  a  paper  called 
the  Sovereign  Odd  Fellow,  has  been  filling  his  columns  with  violent 
attacks  on  a  prominent  religious  denomination,  accusing  it  of  being  a 
political  organization,  whose  operations  are  injurious  to  the  community. 
The  Grand  Sire's  attention  having  been  called  to  these  articles,  he  wrote 
Bro.  Veach,  courteously,  suggesting  that  their  publication  in  a  period- 
ical purporting  to  be  an  Odd  Fellows'  paper  was  a  violation  of  certain 
well  established  principles  of  our  Order,  and  asking  that  they  be 
discontinued.  This  suggestion  has  been  disregarded,  and  the  articles 
objected  to  have  been  increased  in  number  and  virulence. 

There  is  no  question  in  the  mind  of  any  member  of  the  committee 
as  to  the  soundness  of  the  view  held  by  the  Grand  Sire,  and,  while 
endorsing  such  actions  as  were  taken  by  him,  we  are  of  the  opinion 
that  had  he  proceeded  to  enforce  his  views  he  would  have  been  justified 
by  the  facts  and  authorized  by  the  law.  Every  Odd  Fellow  knows 
perfectly  well  that  with  systems  of  faith  or  sects,  religious  or  political, 
our  Order  as  such  has  no  affiliation.  We  not  only  have  no  controversy 
with  any  of  them,  but  are  forbidden  to  enter  into  controversy  about 
them.  Religious  and  political  debates  under  the  auspices  of  Odd 
Fellowship  are  absolutely  prohibited.  On  these  matters  individual 
Odd  Fellows  are  entitled  to  hold  whatever  opinions  they  think  the 
evidence  will  justify,  and  they  have  a  right  to  all  the  freedom  in 
expressing  their  opinion  that  the  laws  of  the  country  in  which  they 
live  may  give  them,  but  our  Order  is  not  in  any  way,  directly  or  in- 
directly, to  be  made  responsible  for  them,  nor  should  they  be  discussed 
in  an  Odd  Fellows'  paper  any  more  than  in  an  Odd  Fellows'  Lodge.

purchased  copies  for  distribution  in  the  Lodges  and  Encampments,  but 
this  has  been  with  the  distinct  understanding  that  while  of  necessity 
they  are  to  some  extent  private  enterprises,  yet  they  are  published 
"in  the  interest  of  Odd  Fellowship."  We  have  no  desire  to  curtail,  in 
the  slightest,  freedom  of  utterance  on  the  part  of  our  Fraternal  press, 
but  that  freedom  must  be  exercised  in  harmony  with  our  law,  and  with 
full  recognition  of  our  authority. 

1.  That  it  is  against  the  interests  of  Odd  Fellowship  and  in  vio- 
lation of  our  laws  and  customs  for  a  paper  using  any  of  our  titles  or 
emblems,  or  claiming  to  be  an  Odd  Fellows'  paper,  to  discuss  in  its 
columns  subjects  prohibited  in  a  Lodge  room. 

2.  That  the  penalty  for  infraction  of  the  law  by  an  Odd  Fellow 
shall  be  expulsion  from  membership  after  due  trial  in  the  Subordinate 
Lodge  of  which  the  accused  is  a  member. 

3.  That  it  is  the  duty  of  the  Grand  Master  of  any  jurisdiction  in 
which  such  an  offense  is  committed  to  take  such  steps  as  will  insure 
prompt  and  decisive  action  by  the  Lodge  in  which  the  accused  holds 
membership. 

4.  That  any  Grand  or  subordinate  Lodge  neglecting  or  refusing 
to  enforce  the  law  is  liable  to  the  loss  of  its  charter,  which  should 
be  promptly  withdrawn  by  the  competent  authority. 

5.  That  it  is  the  duty  of  the  Grand  Sire  to  see  that  these  laws 
are  enforced,  and  in  doing  so  he  will  exercise  all  the  powers  vested  in 
him,  to  the  extent  of  invoking  the  civil  authority  should  he  deem  it 
necessary. 

6.  That  the  case  of  the  Sovereign  Odd  Fellow  is  returned  to  the 
Grand  Sire  with  instructions  to  enforce  the  laws  herein  reviewed, 
bearing  on  the  case.

SUPPLEMENTAL   REPORT  OF  GRAND  SIRE  AND  GRAND  SECRE- 
TARY ON  ESTABLISHMENT  OF  ORDER  IN  ENGLAND. 

To  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows: 

Officers  and  Representatives:  In  accordance  with  your  action  at 
the  last  session  continuing  and  referring  to  us  for  consideration  the 
subject  matter   of  the   feasibility  of  the   establishment   of  our   Order

in  England,  we  have  requested  the  views  of  and  report  thereon  of 
Bros.  Geo.  T.  Clarke  and  J.  C.  Smith,  who  are  Past  Grand  Repre- 
sentatives and  also  Past  Grand  Sires  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Aus- 
tralasia, and  have  given  the  subject  attention  and  have  just  received 
from  them  the  following,  which  is  submitted  as  part  of  our  report.

Office  of  the  Grand  Secretary, 
"Tasma,"  Oak  Street   (near  Victoria  Bridge), 

Hawthorn,  Victoria,  August  7,  1913. 

The    Grand    Sire     and     Grand     Secretary     Sovereign    Grand    Lodge, 

I.  O.  O.  F.: 

Dear  Brethren. — In  compliance  with  your  request  that  we  should 
again  report  to  you  on  the  subject  of  the  establishment  of  the  Order 
in  England,  in  time  for  submission  to  the  approaching  session,  we 
have  the  honor  to  offer  the  following: 

That  the  fact  of  the  Manchester  Unity  having  the  field  in  England 
is,  in  our  opinion,  no  bar  to  the  Independent  Order  being  established 
there,  and  efforts  in  that  direction  would  not  be  likely  to  disturb  the 
fraternal  relations  at  present  existing  between  the  two  societies. 

The  laws  relating  to  friendly  societies  might  give  a  little  trouble, 
for  the  name  of  the  Order,  its  tables  of  contributions  and  benefits  and 
the  management  of  its  fiscal  concerns,  would  certainly  come  under 
review  of  the  authorities,  and  possibly  some  alterations  would  be 
asked  for  by  them,  before  registration  would  be  allowed.  However, 
we  are  satisfied  that  all  these  matters  could  be  adjusted,  if  handled 
tactfully  by  an  officer  on  the  spot,  who  had  been  appointed  by  the 
Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  and  in  whom  that  body  had  full  confidence. 
Very  many  conferences  with  actuaries,  registtrars  and  other  officials 
who  control  friendly  societies  in  England,  would  doubtless  be  required, 
and  in  addition  to  tact  and  a  good  general  knowledge  of  friendly 
society  work,  a  little  social  knowledge  of  English  methods  would  be  a 
desirable  acquisition  for  the  officer  whom  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
might  select,  to  clear  the  way  for  an  organizer  entrusted  with  the  task 
of  establishing  the  Order  in  England. 

In  view  of  the  somewhat  disturbed  state  of  friendly  societies  in 
England  at  the  present  time,  caused  by  the  coming  into  operation  of 
the  National  Insurance  Act,  we  beg  to  suggest  that  the  actual  effort 
to  establish  our  Order  in  that  country  should  be  delayed  for  about  a 
year,  and,  in  the  meantime,  the  preparatory  work  which  we  have 
roughly  sketched  should  be  taken  in  hand,  fully  carried  out  and  re- 
ported on,  so  as  to  place  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  on  solid  ground 
at  the   1914   session,   and  thus   enable   it  to   satisfactorily   decide   the

question,  "Is  it  desirable  to  take  the  necessary  steps  to  establish  the 
Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows  in  England?" 

Of  late  we  have  not  many  opportunities  of  gaining  information, 
but  promise  to  keep  in  touch  with  the  position  during  the  current 
year,  and  in  conclusion  desire  to  assure  you  that  our  advice  and 
assistance,  so  far  as  we  are  able  to  render  either,  will  be  always  at 
your  service,  should  you  so  desire. 

Faithfully  and  fraternally  yours, 

GEO.  T.  CLARKE, 
J.  C.  SMITH. 
We  therefore  deem  it  proper,  and  so  recommend,  that  final  action 
be  deferred  thereon  until  the  next  session  and  that  such  further  in- 
vestigation be  made  during  the  ensuing  year  as  may  be  practicable 
without  other  than  small  incidental  expense,  if  any,  necessary  to  be 
made  in  such  investigation. 

Fraternally, 

C.    A.    KELLER, 

Grand  Sire. 
JOHN  B.   GOODWIN, 

Grand  Secretary.

/  Nov.    IS.    1913. 


After  some  time  spent  in  discussion  Rep.  Emmins,  of  Texas,  moved 
the  previous  question,  when  the  Grand  Sire  asked  "Shall  the  main 
question  be  now  put?"  and  the  main  question  was  ordered. 

The  question  recurring  on  the  selection  of  the  next  place  of  meet- 
ing, it  was  ordered  that  the  next  annual  session  be  held  in  Atlantic 
City. 

Resolution  No.  57. 

Past  Grand  Sire  Cockrum  moved  the  following,  for  which  he 
asked  immediate  consideration: 

Resolved,  That  the  Grand  Sire,  and  the  other  executive  officers  of 
this  Grand  Lodge,  are  hereby  directed  to  make  all  arrangements  and 
provide  for  all  the  requirements  of  the  Grand  Lodge  for  its  session  at 
Atlantic  City  in  1914.  The  Grand  Bodies  of  New  Jersey  are  not  ex- 
pected to  use  any  effort  or  to  expend  any  money  for  the  purpose  of 
entertaining  members  of  this  Grand  Lodge  or  visitors  to  said  meeting. 

The  question  being  on  the  resolution,  it  was  adopted. 

Resolution  No.  63. 

Past  Gr?nd  Sire  Pinkerton  moved  the  following,  which  was  con- 
sidered and  adopted: 

Resolved,  That  the  Grand  Sire,  and  other  executive  officers  of  this 
Grand  I^odge,  charged  with  making  arrangements  for  meeting  of 
this  Body  at  Atlantic  City,  are  hereby  authorized  and  empowered,  in 
the  event  that  they  are  unable  to  make  such  suitable  arrangements 
or  to  provide  proper  hotel  and  other  necessary  accommodations  for  the 
members  of  this  Body  at  reasonable  rates,  to  change  the  place  of  next 
session  to,  and  make  necessary  arrangements  in,  such  other  city  as 
will  furnish  such  accommodations  at  reasonable  rates. 

The  Grand  Chaplain  invoked  Divine  Blessing,  as  follows: 

O,  Thou  Great  God,  Creator  of  all  things,  we  thank  Thee  for  Thy 
goodness  and  loving  kindness  to  us  all  our  lives.  May  we  be  per- 
mitted to  importune  Thee  to  continue  Thy  favors,  so  auspiciously 
begun,  until  our  life  is  ended. 

We  thank  Thee  that  Thou  hast  given  to  this  Body  such  good  and 
wise  men  to  enact  laws  for  the  government  of  our  great  Order. 

We  also  thank  Thee  for  the  wide  influence  of  the  Order  and  for 
its  more  extended  usefulness  and  influence  as  it  becomes  better  under- 
stood. Let  the  sunshine  and  love  that  permeate  our  beloved  Order 
continue  on  her  onward  march  till  the  whole  earth  is  girded.  May  the 
time  speedily  come  when  every  civilized  clime  shall  be  under  the  full 
sway  of  allegiance  to  the  sweet  influence  of  our  motto,  Friendship, 
Love  and  Truth.

Bless  our  sick  and  sorrowful  sisters  and  brothers.  Preserve  our 
lives.  Give  us  good  health,  bless  our  orphans  and  indigent  sisters  and 
brothers. 

In  an  especial  manner  direct  our  Officers  and  Representatives  with 
great  wisdom. 

When  life  is  ended  save  all  of  us  and  give  us  the  blessings  of  Thy 
possessions.     We  ask  all  in  Thy  name.     Amen! 

The  foregoing  is  an  epitome  of  the  business  part  of  the  session. 
But  it  would  not  be  proper  to  close  this  report  without  making  some 
allusion  to  the  social  features,  and  the  hospitality  of  those  beautiful 
and  thriving  Twin-Cities,  Minneapolis  and  St.  Paul,  and  that  splendid 
state,  Minnesota,  which,  its  Governor  says,  lies  just  at  the  edge  of  tho 
great  West. 

SUNDAY  SERVICES. 

The  annual  sermon  was  delivered  by  Rev.  Andrew  Gillies,  at 
Hennepin  Avenue  M.  E.  Church.  His  subject,  "Odd  Fellowship,"  was 
most  skillfully  handled,  and  thoroughly  appreciated  by  all.  As  it  will 
be  reported  in  full  in  the  S.  G.  L.  Journal,  we  will  not  take  the  space 
here  to  give  it. 

PUBLIC  RECEPTION  AND  WELCOME. 

The  opening  reception  and  welcome  was  given  in  Unique  Theatre, 
Monday  morning.  Shortly  after  the  appointed  hour  of  9  a.  m.,  with  the 
theatre  filled  to  overflowing.  F.  H.  Castner,  Chairman  of  the  Executive 
Committee,  in  a  few  well  chosen  words,  extended  a  welcome  from  the 
committee,  and  then  in  turn  introduced  the  following  speakers: 

Brother  A.  0.  Eberhart,  Governor  of  Minnesota;  Brother  W.  G.  Nye, 
Mayor  of  Minneapolis;  A.  W.  Annes,  Grand  Master  of  Minnesota;  S. 
A.  Farnsworth,  Grand  Patriarch;  August  Hohenstein,  Department 
Commander  Patriarchs  Militant;  Mrs.  Mahala  McGillivray,  President 
Rebekah  Assembly;  all  of  whom,  in  a  most  pleasing  manner,  extended 
to  all,  in  behalf  of  those  they  were  there  to  represent,  a  splendid  wel- 
come. To  all  of  which,  Grand  Sire,  C.  A.  Keller,  made  a  splendid  and 
fitting  response. 

ST.  PAUL   DAY. 

Thursday  was  St.  Paul  day,  and  during  the  afternoon  the  officers 
and  members,  many  accompanied  by  their  wives,  were  taken  to  that: 
city  on  chartered  street  cars,  stopping  on  the  way  at  the  beautiful  state 
capitol  building,  through  which  we  were  escorted  by  a  guide.  In  the 
evening  a  fine  banquet  was  served  in  the  beautiful  Field-Schlick  tea 
rooms,  probably  four  hundred  being  served.

PARADE. 

The  great  event  of  the  week  from  a  spectacular  standpoint  is 
always  the  parade,  and  as  usual  it  was  well  worth  seeing.  It  took 
place  on  Wednesday  evening,  the  column  marching  down  Nicollet 
Avenue  and  countermarching  on  same  avenue,  which  was  most 
brilliantly  illuminated  with  electrical  arches  and  decorations  in  addi- 
tion to  the  regular  street  lights.  There  must  have  been  eight  thousand 
persons  in  line,  taking  about  two  hours  to  pass.  Lodges,  Encampments, 
Cantons  and  Rebekah  Lodges  in  beautiful  floats,  seemed  to  have  come 
from  everywhere.  Illinois  was  well  represented  by  Canton  Germania 
No.  78,  of  Chicago,  with  the  largest  number  of  swords  of  any  one 
Canton  in  line,  and  by  Manufacturers  Lodge  No.  485,  and  Swedish  Olive 
Lodge  No.  583,  both  of  Moline,  with  large  delegations.  It  was  a  scene 
long  to  be  remembered  by  those  who  participated,  and  the  thousands 
of  spectators  who  witnessed  it. 

ILLINOIS. 

The  attendance  from  Illinois  was  large;  indeed,  at  every  turn  one 
would  meet  an  Illinoian,  and  as  the  number  was  so  large  we  refrain 
from  enumerating  them,  owing  to  the  space  it  would  consume.  It 
affords  us  great  pleasure  to  report  the  presence  of  Canton  Germania 
No.  78,  of  Chicago,  with  more  swords  than  any  other  Canton,  and  the 
Degree  Staffs  of  Swedish  Olive  Lodge  No.  583,  and  Manufacturers  Lodge 
No.  485,  who  were  there  to,  and  did,  uphold  the  prestige  of  this 
splendid  jurisdiction. 

CONTESTS— PRIZES. 

The  prizes  for  drill  and  degree  contests  were  very  liberal,  and 
many  of  the  best  degree  staffs  in  the  country  were  in  competition.  The 
awarding  of  prizes  showed  the  lodges  from  Illinois  well  in  the  forerank. 
Swedish  Olive  Lodge  No.  583,  of  Moline,  first  in  First  Degree,  $500. 
Manufacturers  Lodge  No.  485,  of  Moline,  second  in  Initiatory,  $300. 

CONCLUSION. 

To  be  a  member  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  and  to  participate 
in  some  measure  in  its  deliberations  and  in  the  shaping  of  its  policies, 
is  a  great  honor  and  may  well  be  prized  by  any  member  of  our  Order. 
To  have  been  elected  representative  from  this  Grand  Body  is  an 
especial  honor,  as  Illinois  is  one  of  the  foremost  jurisdictions.  Of  this 
we  are  deeply  sensible.

Grand   Master's  Supplemental   Report. 

To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  O.  0.  F.: 

Since  submitting  my  original  report,  I  find  it  necessary  to  submit 
a  supplemental  report,  for  the  reason  that  several  of  the  matters  that 
I  presumed  would  be  closed  before  the  convening  of  Grand  Lodge,  have 
not  been  closed  and  I,  therefore,  report  the  same  to  you. 

On  the  23rd  day  of  July,  1913,  I  issued  an  order,  based  upon  the 
report  of  my  Special  Deputy,  Brother  Arthur  L.  Mason,  who  had  the 
matter  in  charge,  revoking  the  charter  of  Sunbeam  Rebekah  Lodge 
No.  389,  at  Eberle,  Illinois,  and  suspending  the  functions  of  said  Lodge. 
Since  compiling  my  original  report  I  am  informed  that  this  matter 
will  be  taken  to  the  Judiciary  and  Appeals  Committee.  I,  therefore, 
brought  all  of  the  documents  with  me  and  I  have  delivered  the  same 
to  the  committee.

UNFINISHED   MATTERS. 

Goethe  Lodge  No.  329,  situated  in  the  city  of  Chicago,  where  there 
are  more  than  fifty  Subordinate  Lodges,  had  been  reported  to  me  as 
taking  in  members  for  less  than  the  constitutional  fee.  I  appointed 
Brother  F.  W.  Chas.  Eberhard  to  investigate  this  matter  and  I  find 
from  the  investigation  made,  that  by  some  reason  unexplainable,  the 
Constitution  and  By-Laws  of  Goethe  Lodge  No.  329  were  approved  by 
the  Judiciary  and  Appeals  Committee,  permitting  this  Lodge  to  charge 
for  each  degree  the  sum  of  $3.00.  See  Section  2,  Article  II,  page  2  of 
the  By-Laws  of  said  Lodge. 

The  Constitution  and  By-Laws  submitted  to  the  Judiciary  and 
Appeals  Committee,  page  2  of  the  By-Laws,  Section  2  of  Article  III, 
provides  the  fee  for  each  degree  shall  be  $3.00,  making  no  reference 
whatever  to  Section  3,  Article  X,  of  the  Constitution,  which  provides 
that  in  cities  where  there  are  more  than  fifty  Lodges  the  fee  for  each 
degree  shall  not  be  less  than  $5.00 

Goethe  Lodge  No.  329  has  not  charged  $5.00  for  each  degree  as  the 
Constitution  provides. 

Since  the  compilation  of  my  original  report,  I  have  received  a  copy 
of  the  Constitution  and  By-Laws  of  Goethe  Lodge  No.  329  in  which 
is  pasted  a  correction  dated  Nov.  1,  1913,  Sec.  2,  Art.  II,  of  the  By-Laws, 
raising  the  fee  to  comply  with  the  Constitution. 

Goethe  Lodge  No.  329  requests  to  be  relieved  from  any  violation 
of  the  law  on  account  of  this  descrepancy  in  their  Constitution  and 
By-Laws  and  I  submit  the  matter  to  this  Grand  Lodge  for  consideration. 

There  are  two  matters  pending  that  are  not  in  condition  to  be 
reported  to  this  Grand  Lodge.  The  documents  connected  therewith 
I  will  deliver  to  my  successor  in  office,  as  they  simply  involve  a  de- 
cision of  his,  namely: 

The  matter  of  Robert  Blum  Lodge  No.  58,  and  Mrs.  Schaefer. 
This  case  involves  the  matter  of  funeral  benefits  where  the  brother 
died  in  the  Old  Folks'  Home. 

In  the  other  case,  complaint  has  been  made  to  me  as  Grand  Master, 
that  several  brothers,  members  of  Edgewood  Lodge  No.  959  are  guilty 
of  conduct  unbecoming  Odd  Fellows.  I  referred  the  matter  to  W.  W. 
Yeek,  Director  of  Work,  at  Flora,  Illinois,  as  my  Special  Deputy;  and 
have  received  only  a  partial  report  from  him  in  regard  thereto.  These 
documents  I  will  also  deliver  to  my  successor  in  office. 

REINSTATEMENT. 
Since  the  compilation  of  my  original  report,  Brother  W.  B.  Jones, 
a'  former  expelled  brother,  has  been  reinstated  in  Odin  Lodge  No.  866, 
I.  O.  O.  F.,  Odin,  Illinois.

DOCUMENT   NO.   5. 

Whereas,  The  Grand  Jurisdiction  of  Illinois  is  now  the  third  largest 
in  the  world,  and  for  a  number  of  years  past  has  led  all  others  in 
point  of  interest,  growth  and  enthusiasm,  as  well  as  in  the  influence 
of  its  distinguished  representatives  at  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  so 
that  it  seems  certain  that  in  a  decade  it  will  have  the  distinguished 
honor  of  being  the  largest  in  the  world;  and, 

Whereas,  At  the  present  time  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  has  not. 
a  suitable  building  to  protect  its  valuable  records  now  in  the  Grand 
Secretary's  office,  and  neither  has  a  suitable  building  in  which  to 
hold  its  annual  sessions,  but  is  compelled  to  use  inconvenient  and 
undesirable  makeshifts;  and, 

Whereas,  Many  other  orders  and  jurisdictions  of  lesser  member- 
ship than  ours  have  erected  temples  commensurate  with  their  necessi- 
ties and  dignity,  there  seems  to  be  no  good  reason  why  the  great 
jurisdiction  of  Illinois  should  not  now,  in  its  day  of  rapidly  increasing 
membership  and  wealth,  emulate  their  commendable  examples  by,  at 
least,  taking  some  steps  towards  laying  plans  for  the  future  building 
of  a  temple  suitable  to  our  necessities;   and, 

Whereas,  This  could  be  easily  accomplished,  without  financial 
strain,  by  the  simple  co-operation  of  all  members,  in  small  amounts, 
divided  among  so  large  a  membership  and  spread  over  a  series  of 
years,  the  nucleus  of  a  sinking  fund  could  be  established  which  would 
ultimately  insure  the  building  of  a  temple  in  which  all  Odd  Fellows 
would  have  pride;   therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  the  incoming  Grand  Master  appoint  a  committee 
of  seven,  whose  duty  it  shall  be  to  investigate  the  feasibility  of  build- 
ing a  temple  for  the  use  and  ownership  of  the  Grand  Lodge  I.  O.  O.  F. 
of  the  State  of  Illinois,  said  temple  to  be  of  sufficient  capacity,  with  its 
accessories,  to  house  the  office  of  the  Grand  Secretary  and  the  annual 
sessions  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  the  Rebekah  Assembly. 

Resolved,  That  the  committee  incur  no  expense  and  assume  no 
liability  for  which  the  Grand  Lodge  shall  be  liable  in  their  investiga- 
tion, and  that  their  duties  shall  be  performed  free  of  all  charge,  and 
that  they  report  their  findings,  with  any  suggestions  they  may  see  fit 
to  make  regarding  it,  at  the  next  annual  session.

To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  0.  0.  F.: 

It  is  said  that  Odd  Fellowship  is  progressive  in  its  character  and 
times  and  conditions  change  with  the  development  and  progress  of 
natural  events.  Physical  conditions  and  inventions  and  important 
discoveries,  supplemented  with  the  experience  of  nearly  100  years 
added  to  the  history  of  the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows,  has 
brought  many  changes  from  what  the  originators  of  the  Order  early 
taught.  While  one  of  the  cardinal  principles  of  Odd  Fellows  has 
always  been  to  relieve  the  distressed,  this  principle  applied  with  great 
force  in  the  origin  and  wants  of  the  Order  because  it  originated 
among  a  poor  class  of  people,  and  there  were  but  very  few,  if  any,  but 
what  needed  help  when  they  were  in  distressed  circumstances.  After  an 
experience  of  nearly  100  years,  we  find  that  a  large  per  cent  of  the 
membership  make  this  principle  the  leading  factor  of  membership  in 
the  Order,  and  under  the  laws  of  the  Order  we  are  compelled  to  pay 
sick  benefits  to  brothers  who  are  worth  $10,000,  or  more,  the  same  as 
to  those  who  may  not  be  worth  more  than  10  cents;  thus,  in  a  great 
measure  making  the  Order  a  fraternal  insurance  company,  paying  out 
upon  certain  conditions  ,based  upon  sickness  or  disability,  "whether 
the  brother  is  in  needy  or  distressed  circumstances  or  not.  This  prac- 
tice has  been  taken  up  by  other  modern  orders  and  made  the  leading 
and  principal  object  of  their  organization,  while  with  Odd  Fellows 
there  are  other  cardinal  principles  which  are  practiced  and  taught  in 
the  lodge  room  and  among  the  members  that  overshadow  every  fea- 
ture of  a  financial  nature,  and  especially  among  that  class  of  mem- 
bers who  are  in  affluent  circumstances  and  do  not  need  financial 
assistance  in  time  of  sickness  or  disability;    therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  our  Representatives  to  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge 
bring  this  question  before  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  at  its  next 
session  and  use  their  best  endeavors  to  get  a  recognition  of  the  basic 
principles  of  Odd  Fellowship  recognized  and  enacted  in  the  laws  of 
the  Order,  so  that  the  question  of  money  benefits  will  be  of  a  secondary 
consideration  and  given  only  to  those  who  are  in  need  of  financial 
assistance  and  in  such  a  way  that  it  will  be  a  help,  in  time  of  need; 
and  for  the  enactment  of  such  laws  as  will  regulate  the  payment  of 
funeral  and  sick  benefits  to  those  who  really  need  them,  and  are  not 
financially  able  to  meet  such  demands.

Whereas,  Previous  to  the  Grand  Lodge  session  of  1912  our  By- 
Laws  provided  for  $25.00  funeral  benefit  and  $60.00  funeral  expense; 
and 

Whereas,  The  Grand  Lodge  of  1912  passed  a  resolution  providing 
for  only  one  fund,  and  that  to  be  a  benefit  fund,  making  it  possible 
that  a  brother  may  die  with  no  provision  made  in  our  By-Laws  for  his 
burial,  as  the  benefit  can  only  be  used  by  the  written  consent  of  the 
beneficiaries;     therefore,    be   it 

Resolved,  That  Vernon  Lodge  No.  324,  of  Vernon,  Illinois,  ask  the 
Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  for  relief  by  either  repealing  the  resolution 
passed  in  1912  or  change  it  to  read  Funeral  Expense  instead  of  Funeral 
Benefit,  thereby  making  it  absolutely  certain  that  upon  the  death  of 
a  brother  the  Lodge  will  have  the  money  to  give  him  decent  sepulture.

By  Henry  A.  Stone,  P.G.M.,  of  No.  122,  to  amend  Article  X,  Section 
9,  Subordinate  Lodge  Constitution.  (See  Book  of  Constitutions,  1911, 
page  62,  weekly  benefits.) 

Whereas,  There  is  a  great  diversity  of  opinion  by  very  many 
Lodges  in  Illinois  as  to  the  interpretation  of  above  section,  whether 
weekly  sick  benefits  can  be  or  must  be  paid  to  members  who  have  not 
attained  the  third  or  scarlet  degree,  which  reads  as  follows,  to-wit: 

"Every  beneficial  member  of  this  Lodge,  in  case  of  sickness  or  dis- 
ability not  caused  by  vice  or  immorality  on  his  part,  shall  be  entitled 
to  and  receive  from  the  funds  of  the  Lodge  such  weekly  benefits  as 
may  be  fixed  by  the  By-Laws,  not  less  than  two  dollars  a  week  if  of 
the  scarlet  degree,"  etc.;  and, 

Whereas,  The  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  requires,  under  the  Minimum 
Benefit  Law,  not  less  than  $2.00  a  week  for  first  52  weeks'  continuous 
sickness,  of  any  degree.  (See  Busbee's  Digest,  1903,  page  9,  Sec.  27.) ; 
and, 

Whereas,  Busbee's  Digest,  1903,  page  11,  Sec.  31,  further  provides 
as  follows,  to-wit:  "There  is  no  law  of  the  Order  regulating  the  pay- 
ment of  a  greater  amount  of  weekly  benefits  to  scarlet  degree  members 
than  those  of  the  royal  blue.  The  matter  is  left  entirely  to  local  legis- 
lation. Unless  prohibited  by  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  jurisdiction,  a 
Lodge  has  a  right  to  classify  its  members  and  give  an  initiate  one  rate 
of  benefits,  another  rate  to  a  first  degree  member,  and  so  on,  or  it  may 
declare  only  third  degree  members  entitled  to  benefits;  but  if  any  class 
is  allowed  benefits  at  all  it  must  not  be  at  a  less  rate  than  $2.00  per 
week;"  and

Whereas,  The  Constitution  for  Subordinote  Lodges  of  the  jurisdic- 
tion of  Illinois,  makes  no  such  provisions,  except  saying  "if  of  the 
scarlet  degree,"  which  is  misleading  and  causes  confusion  and  mis- 
intepretation  of  the  minimum  benefit  law,  prescribed  by  the  Sovereign 
Grand  Lodge; 

Therefore,  Resolved,  That  Article  X,  Section  9,  be  amended  by 
striking  out  the  words,  "if  of  the  scarlet  degree,"  commencing  last 
word  in  fifth  line  and  first  four  words  in  sixth  line,  and  adding  the 
following  words  after  the  word  "week,"  in  seventh  line,  to-wit: 

"Provided,  That  this  Lodge  may  provide  in  its  By-Laws  for  a  sick 
benefit  to  be  paid  to  third  degree  members  only  entitled  to  benefits; 
but  if  benefits  are  allowed  at  all  to  members  of  the  initiatory,  first 
and  second  degrees  it  must  not  be  at  a  less  rate  than  $2.00  a  week." 
Said  section,  when  amended,  to  read  as  follows,  to-wit: 

"Weekly  Benefits — Sec.  9.  Every  beneficiary  member  of  this 
Lodge,  in  case  of  sickness  or  disability  not  caused  by  vice  or  immoral- 
ity on  his  part,  shall  be  entitled  to  and  receive  from  the  funds  of  the

To  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  I.  0.  O.  F.: 

Gentlemen:  In  the  Journal  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  for 
the  year  of  1912,  on  page  332,  Document  No.  25,  it  was  resolved  that 
a  special  building  committee  be  appointed  for  the  purpose  of  locating 
and  establishing  suitable  and  permanent  quarters  for  the  Grand  Sec- 
retary's office,  and  on  page  408  of  said  Journal,  upon  motion  of  John 
J.  Crowder,  action  upon  this  resolution  was  postponed  for  one  year, 
so  that  offers  might  be  received  from  any  and  all  cities  within  said 
jurisdiction,  which  said  motion  carried.  Therefore,  the  Odd  Fellows' 
Building  Association  of  Decatur,  Macon  County,  111.,  having  been 
duly  incorporated  by  the  Local  Lodges  No.  65  and  No.  186,  of  the  said 
City  of  Decatur,  111.,  will,  within  the  next  year  from  this  date,  erect 
a  fire-proof  building  in  said  city  devoted  to  the  purposes  and  uses  of 
Odd  Fellowship.  The  said  Odd  Fellows'  Building  Association  therefore 
present  to  the  said  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois  the  two  fol- 
lowing propositions,  thereby  binding  the  said  Building  Association 
and  the  two  local  lodges  above  mentioned  to  the  full  and  faithful  per- 
formance of  either  one  of  the  two  agreements  which  may  be  acccepted 
by  this  Grand  Lodge: 

First.  The  said  Building  Association  hereby  agrees  to  erect  said 
building  above  mentioned  in  which  shall  be  provided  ample,  suitable 
and  strictly  fire-proof  quarters  for  the  use  of  the  said  Grand  Secre- 
tary's office,  and  further  agree  to  furnish  the  use  of  said  quarters  to 
the  said  Secretary  free  of  all  rental  charges  for  a  period  of  twenty 
years  after  date  of  occupancy. 

Second.  Should  the  said  Grand  Lodge  prefer,  the  said  Odd  Fel- 
lows' Building  Association  will  build  and  equip  said  building  and 
apartments  as  above  described  for  the  use  of  the  said  Secretary's  office 
as  above  described  and  furnish  the  use  of  the  same  to  the  said  Secre- 
tary for  a  period  of  twenty-five  years  after  date  of  occupancy,  upon 
the  condition  that  the  said  Grand  Lodge  shall  pay  to  the  said  Odd 
Fellows'  Building  Association  the  sum  of  Five  Thousand  ($5,000.00) 
Dollars  when  possession  of  said  quarters  are  taken  by  the  Secretary. 

It  is  further  agreed  by  the  said  Odd  Fellows'  Building  Associa- 
tion that  in  event  the  said  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois  should 
decide  to  accept  either  one  of  the  above  propositions,  then  at  the 
expiration  of  the  period  thus  selected,  a  committee  shall  be  appointed 
consisting  of  three  members,  one  selected  by  the  said  Odd  Fellows' 
Building  Association,  one  by  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State  of  Illinois, 
and  the  two  thus  selected  shall  select  the  third.  Said  committee  shall 
then  proceed  to  determine  a  fair  and  equitable  rental  to  be  paid  each

Whereas,  Section  5,  of  Article  2,  of  the  Subordinate  Lodge  Con- 
stitution, requires  all  Lodges  in  cities  having  nine  or  more  Lodges, 
to  notify  all  other  Lodges  in  the  same  city,  of  all  applications  received, 
and 

Whereas,  This  entails  a  considerable  expense  to  all  Lodges  con- 
cerned,   therefore,   be   it 

Resolved,  That  the  Odd  Fellows'  League  of  Chicago  be  authorized 
by  this  Grand  Lodge  to  issue  a  weekly  circular  to  be  mailed  to  each 
Lodge  in  Chicago,  this  circular  to  give  all  the  information  required  in 
Section  5,  of  Article  2  aforesaid,  and  such  Lodges  as  furnish  the  Odd 
Fellows'  League  of  Chicago  with  a  list  of  their  applications,  shall  not 
be  required  to  notify  all  Lodges  in  the  same  city,  and  said  publication 
in  said  weekly  circular  shall  be  in  lieu  of  a  notice  to  the  other  Lodges.

the  following: 

"On  motion  of  Representative  Goudy,  of  Colorado,  the  Sovereign 

Grand  Lodge  resolved  itself  into  secret  session. 

After  some  time   spent  in  secret    session,    the    Sovereign   Grand 

Lodge  receded  therefrom  and  resumed  regular  session."

Whereas,  The  Representatives  to  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  are 
elected  by  the  Representatives  to  the  State  Grand  Lodge,  who  in  turn 
are  elected  by  the  members  of  the  Subordinate  Lodges  throughout  the 
State,  and  while  the  sessions  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  can  be 
held  only  in  the  presence  of  those  who  are  qualified  to  be  present  dur- 
ing their  deliberations,  we  are  at  a  loss  to  understand  why  the  Sov- 
ereign Grand  Lodge,  in  its  representative  capacity,  should  resolve  itself 
into  secret  session.  We  are  at  a  loss  to  understand  the  character  of 
business  transacted  in  said  secret  session  that  should  be  kept  from 
those  who  are  qualified  to  be  present,  or  even  from  the  great  member- 
ship of  the  Order. 

Secret  sessions  by  a  select  few  behind  closed  doors  does  not  seem 
to  comport  with  frankness  and  dignity  and  personal  respect  which  one 
Odd  Fellow  should  have  with  another.  It  sounds  like  a  dark  lantern, 
star  chamber  proceeding,  shrouded  in  obscure  mystery,  as  indicative 
of  something  not  in  keeping  with  the  general  duties  belonging  to 
Brothers  who  are  acting  in  a  representative  capacity;    therefore,  be  it 

Resolved.  By  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois,  that  our  Representatives 
to  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge,  Brothers  James  Ewing  Davis  and  W.  A. 
Hubbard,  be  and  they  are  hereby  respectfully  requested  and  solicited 
to  come  before  this  Grand  Lodge  and  explain  to  the  Representatives 
here  assembled,  briefly,  the  objects  of  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge  in 
having  secret  sessions,  behind  closed  doors,-  and  what  is  the  nature 
and  character  of  the  business  transacted  in  said  secret  session.

As  money  can  be  drawn  out  of  the  Treasury  only  on  warrants 
signed  by  the  Grand  Master  and  the  Grand  Secretary,  and  all  these  war- 
rants appear  on  their  face  to  have  been  issued  for  services  rendered 
by  the  Grand  Master  in  the  special  line  of  holding  schools  of  instruc- 
tion and  official  visitations,  on  the  surface  it  would  appear  that  the 
members  of  this  Grand  Jurisdiction  are  paying  pretty  high  for  this 
line  of  work;     therefore,  be  it

auditing  his  books  and  accounts.  We  checked  them,  item  by  item,

We  examined  all  the  securities  and  found  Mortgages  and  Bonds 
in  all  funds  amounting  to  $67,990,  as  listed. 

We  find  certain  discrepancies  in  Orphans'  Home  Fund  and  Or- 
phans' Home  Building  Fund,  which,  however,  do  not  affect  the  totals. 

The  following  items  were  not  marked  Building  Account  and  were 
therefore  charged  by  Treasurer  to  Maintenance  Account,  when  they 
should  be  charged  to  Building  Account: 

Voucher  No.  5936— Screens     $237.00 

Voucher  No.  5946— Architect    200.00 

Voucher  No.  6052— Architect    , 77.60 

Voucher  No.  6054— Electric  Light  Fixt 325.00 

Total     $839.60 

And  voucher  No.  5869,  Advance  for  Freight,  $4.69,  was  marked 
Building  Account  and  wes  therefore  charged  by  Treasurer  to  Building 
Account,  when  same  should  be  charged  to  Maintenance  Account. 

The  Orphans'  Home  Building  Account  according  to  Treasurer's 
books  therefore  shows  a  credit  balance  of  $834.91.  When  these  cor- 
rections are  made  on  Treasurer's  books  the  accounts  will  show  as  fol- 
lows: 

Orphans'   Home   Fund — credit  balance $802.31 

Orphans'   Home  Building  Fund 000.00 

The  Finance  Committee  also  find  a  difference  in  the  Orphans' 
Home  Building  Fund,  as  shown  by  their  third  report  on  Orphans'  Home, 
which  shows  as  follows: 

Orphans'   Home   Fund,    balance '. .     $3,509.81 

Orphans'  Home  Building  Fund,  overdraft 2,707.50 

Difference     $802.31 

This  is  caused  by  Trustees  of  Orphans'  Home  instructing  the  Grand 
Treasurer  without  consulting  the  Finance  Committee  to  make  a  trans- 
fer of  the  overdraft  on  Building  Account  by  charging  same  to  Mainte- 
nance Account.  We  do  not  consider  this  a  good  practice  and  would 
suggest  that  in  the  future  these  matters  be  taken  up  direct  with  the 
Finance  Committee. 

We  have  been  carrying  on  our  books  for  over  fifteen  years  the 
following  accounts: 

John  Buehler   Orphans'   Home  Fund. 
Chalmers  Orphans'  Home  FUnd. 

German  Rebekah  Orphans'  Home  Fund. 

The  income  on  these  accounts  has  been  credited  to  the  respective 
accounts,-  until  today  these  accounts  have  to  their  credit  cash  and 
securities  as  follows:

and  charge  to  the  Old  Folks'  Home  Endowment  Fund  that  part  of  the 
Ida  M.  Darnall  5%  mortgage  of  $3,100.00  amounting  to  $631.53  now  in 
German  Rebekah's  Orphans'  Home  Fund  (the  balance  of  said  mortgage 
now  being  in  Old  Folks'  Home  Endowment  Fund)  and  credit  the  re- 
spective accounts  with  these  amounts.  After  this  has  been  done  we 
would  close  the  several  accounts  by  transferring  the  credit  balances 
to  the  Orphans'  Home  Endowment  Fund. 
All  of  which  is  respectfully  submitted. 

Signed  by  the  Committee. 

Report  adopted. 

On  motion  of  Bro.  J.  P.  Ellacott  of  No.  416,  it  was  ordered 
that  the  various. items  in  the  report  of  the  Committee  on  Analysis 
and  Distribution  be  printed  in  Tuesday's  Journal. 

Bro.  F.  B.  Merrills,  P.G.M.,  moved  that  the  Committee  on 
Mileage  and  Per  Diem  be  instructed  not  to  issue  warrants  until 
the  Grand  Lodge  adjourned  sine  die. 

An  amendment  was  offered  that  the  Grand  Master  be  per- 
mitted to  sign  warrants  in  cases  of  emergency. 

Bro.  Merrills  accepted  the  amendment. 

The  Grand  Master  having  put  the  motion  as  amended,  the 
motion  was  lost. 

Past  Grand  Master  Davis  moved  the  Grand  Marshal  and  his 
assistants  collect  all  donations  to  the  Endowment  Fund  offered 
and  turn  the  same  over  to  the  Grand  Secretary,  a  list  of  same  to 
be  printed  in  Tuesday's  Journal  and  the  items  to  be  verified  on 
Wednesdav.  which  motion  was  carried. 


Nov'iU18dai913  |       GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  397 

Past  Grand  Master  Davis  moved  that  the  per  diem  of  this 
session  be  fixed  at  three  days,  which  motion  was  carried. 

Bro.  Isaac  Golden  of  822  moved  that  the  printed  minutes  of 
the  1912  session,  as  contained  in  the  Journal  of  Proceeding,  be 
adopted  as  printed,  which  motion  was  carried. 

Past  Grand  Master  Davis  moved  that  Appeal  Case  No.  443, 
namely.  America  Lodge  No.  920  vs.  K.  A.  Flagg,  be  made  the 
special  order  at  this  time,  which  motion  was  carried. 

The  Grand  Lodge  thereupon  proceeded  to  the  consideration 
of  the  above  entitled  case. 

Past  Grand  Master  Davis  proceeded  to  discuss  the  merits  of 
the  case  on  behalf  of  Bro.  Flagg. 

Bro.  Owen  Scott,  P.G.M.,  discussed  the  case  on  behalf  of 
the  committee. 

Whereupon  Bro.  Berry,  P.G.M.,  raised  the  point  of  order  deny^ 
ing  the  right  of  a  member  of  the  Committee  on  Judiciary  and 
Appeals  to  appear  on  the  floor  of  the  Grand  Lodge  to  defend 
their  position. 

The  Grand  Master  decided  that  this  is  a  matter  subject  for 
legislation  and  as  none  had  been  enacted  ruled  the  point  not  well 
taken. 

Thereupon  Bro.  James  Ewing  Davis,  P.G.M.,  moved  that 
the  action  of  Springfield  Lodge  No.  465  in  finding  K.  A.  Flagg 
not  guilty  be  substituted  for  the  decision  of  the  Committee  on 
Judiciary  and  Appeals  rendered  in  said  case  at  their  session  in 
August,  1913. 

Which  motion  was  carried. 

Thereupon  the  Grand  Lodge,  on  motion,  took  up  Appeal 
Case  No.  440,  L.  V.  Rumery  vs.  Oregon  Lodge  No.  94. 

Bro.  H.  A.  Stone,  P.G.M.,  moved  that  the  opinion  of  the 
Committee  on  Judiciary  and  Appeals  stand  as  the  judgment  of 
the  Grand  Lodge. 

Which  motion  was  carried. 

Past  Grand  Master  Sayler  moved  that  when  this  Grand  Lodge 
adjourn  it  adjourn  until  9:00  o'clock  Wednesday  morning,  which 
motion  was  carried. 

Thereupon  the  Grand  Lodge  adjourned  until  9:00  o'clock

behalf  of  the  city  of  Springfield.  No  further  propositions  being 
offered.  Past  Grand  Sire  E.  S.  Conway,  seconded  by  Past  Grand 
Master  Davis,  moved  that  a  recess  be  had  in  order  to  hear  the 
delegation  from  the  city  of  Decatur,  which  motion  was  carried. 

Thereupon  the  Grand  Master  declared  a  recess,  and  a  dele-

Your  Special  Committee  on  Dropped   Members  would   re- 
spectfully report  as  follows : 

The  committee  met  with  Grand  Master  Jennings  at  the  close  of 
the  Peoria  session  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  a  plan  of  procedure  laid 
out  to  be  followed  during  the  year,  which  plan  Grand  Master  Jennings 
very  kindly  agreed  to  send  out  to  the  Subordinate  Lodges  of  the  State, 
and  the  result  has  been  reported  by  him  to  the  Grand  Lodge.  Your 
committee  has  secured  .statistics  during  the  past  two  years  showing 
that  Orders  paying  sick  and  death  benefits,  such  as  the  Improved 
Order  of  Red  Men,  Knights  of  Pythias,  and  our  Order,  have  a  very 
large  loss  of  members  by  reason  of  non-payment  of  dues. 

The  Great  Council  of  the  United  States  of  the  Improved  Order  of 
Red  Men  for  the  year  1913  reports  adoption  during  the  year  77.102; 
suspensions  during  the  year,  68,933;  net  gain  8,169. 

The  Grand  Council  of  Illinois,  of  the  Improved  Order  of  Red  Men 
for  the  year  1912  report  adoptions  for  the  year,  3,206;  suspensions 
during  the  year,  2,702;  net  gain,  504. 

The  Supreme  Lodge  Knights  of  Pythias,  for  the  year  1912,  reports 
initiations  during  1910-11,  101,099;  suspensions  during  the  same  period,

The  Grand  Lodge  Knights  of  Pythias,  for  the  Grand  Domain  of 
Illinois,  for  the  year  ending  June  30,  1912,  reported  initiations  during 
the  year,  3,932:   suspensions  during  the  year,  3,744;  net  gain.  188.

We  also  give  the  following  extracts  from  the  report  of  the  retiring 
Grand  Chancellor  of  the  Grand  Domain  of  Indiana,  Knights  of  Pythias, 
which  met  last  month: 

"Within  the  last  twenty  years  our  Order  has  suspended  more  mem- 
bers than  the  total  aggregate  of  the  membership  of  today.  This  fact 
naturally  causes  thoughtful  Pythians  to  wonder  and  to  endeavor,  if 
possible,  to  solve  the  problem  and  prevent  this  great  and  unnecessary 
drain  on  our  membership.  Many  valuable  suggestions  have  been 
offered  by  members  who  have  given  the  question  considerable  thought. 
Some  hold  that  the  theory  "once  a  Pythian  always  a  Pythian"  should 
be  the  universal  rule,  and  I  am  free  to  admit  that  I  most  heartily 
approve  of  that  sentiment  and  believe  that  condition  could  be  brought 
about  in  having  two  classes  of  members  such  as  'beneficial'  and 
'fraternal,'  the  dues  to  be  fixed  according  to  the  demands  of  each 
class." 

On  the  other  hand,  the  Grand  Lodge  of  A.  F.  &  A.  M.  of  this  State, 
which  does  not  pay  either  sick  or  funeral  benefits,  and  has  a  larger 
membership  in  the  State  than  our  Order,  makes  the  following  report 
of  members  suspended  for  non-payment  of  dues: 

During  the  year  1910 629 

During  the  year  1911 751 

During  the  year  1 912 860 

Your  committee  believe  that  one  of  the  great  causes  of  so  many 
suspensions  for  non-payment  of  Dodge  dues  is  that  a  great  many  mem- 
bers become  dissatisfied  with  the  action  of  their  Subordinate  Dodges 
in  allowing  or  disallowing  said  members  sick  benefits.  So  many  of  our 
members  seem  to  think  that  the  Dodge  ought  to  pay  them  for  any  and 
all  claims  that  they  may  be  disposed  to  present  to  the  Visiting  Com- 
mittee, and  then  if  said  claim  is  rejected  by  the  Visiting  Committee  or 
by  the  Dodge  there  is  sure  to  be  trouble,  and  in  most  cases  our  Order 
loses  a  member  as  a  result. 

If  all  the  members  of  our  Order  would  only  drink  deeply  at  the 
fountain  of  Odd  Fellowship,  and  be  thoroughly  imbued  with  the  prin- 
ciples of  Friendship,  Dove  and  Truth  in  all  that  those  words  mean, 
then  our  Order  would  not  have  such  problems  to  solve. 


4l6  JOURNAL  OF  PROCEEDINGS  \  w^edf<?Sd?Qi 


/Nov.    1!».     1913 


In  ancient  times,  there  were  many  men  who  preferred  death 
rather  than  be  guilty  of  a  dishonorable  act,  and  we  often  wonder  if 
that  characteristic  is  as  universal  now  as  then.  We  are  convinced  that 
there  is  as  much  honor  in  human  nature,  but  is  it  being  developed  as 
much  now  as  then?  If  not,  it  certainly  should  be.  and  our  Order 
should  endeavor  to  develop  a  high  standard  of  honor  among  our 
members.  The  more  we  cultivate  this  great  principle  in  the  minds 
and  hearts  of  our  members,  the  less  will  be  the  number  of  suspen- 
sions for  non-payment  of  Lodge  dues  or  loss  of  interest  in  our  Order 
from  any  cause  among  our  membership. 

The  payment  of  Lodge  dues  is  an  obligation  that  every  member 
should  promptly  liquidate,  the  same  as  he  pays  any  other  just  debt, 
and  thus  living  up  to  the  great  principle  of  our  beloved  Order  will 
impress  upon  the  mind  that  it  is  not  only  a  duty,  but  it  should  be  a 
pleasure  to  pay  dues,  so  that  the  Order  can  successfully  carry  out  its 
great  fraternal  principles   of  Friendship.  Love  and  Truth. 

On  the  9th  of  October.  1913,  this  committee  met  at  the  Grand 
Secretary's  office,  in  Springfield,. with  Grand  Master  John  E.  Jennings 
and  Grand  Warden,  W.  H.  Pease.  At  this  meeting  the  subject  was 
discussed  at  length  by  those  present,  and  it  was  decided  "that  the 
committee  should  report  to  the  Grand  Lodge,  recommending  that  the 
plan  outlined  in  the  correspondence  reported  by  the  Grand  Master  be 
approved  and  that  the  same  be  continued,  and  in  addition  thereto, 
a  follow-up  system  be  inaugurated,  so  as  to  obtain  from  the  different 
Lodges,  large,  medium  and  small,  city  and  country,  the  names  and 
post  office  addresses  of  a  sufficient  number  of  members  who  have  been 
dropped  for  non-payment  of  Lodge  dues,  to  make  the  list  a  repre- 
sentative one,  and  the  information  that  thus  may  be  secured  be  used 
as  a  basis  for  the  adoption  of  any  practical  plan  to  obviate  the  great 
loss  of  members  by  our  Order  from  dropping  for  non-payment  of 
Lodge  dues.  We  also  recommend  that  the  suggestions  made  in  our 
report  last  year  be  adopted  by  this  Grand  Lodge.

out  the  words  "That  no  fee  shall  be  charged  a  Brother  who  shall  be 
admitted  by  transfer  certificate,"  and  insert  in  lieu  thereof  the  words 
"and  such  fee  for  admission  by  transfer  certificate  as  fixed  by  By-Law." 

Article  10,  Section  2.  No  person  shall  be  admitted  to  member- 
ship in  this  Lodge  for  a  less  sum  than  is  herein  provided,  viz:  by

for  medical  certificate  regarding  his  health  should  one  be  required 
by  the  By-Laws  of  this  Lodge,  and  provided  further  that  no  admission 
fee  shall  be  charged  an  applicant  for  membership  under  Article  10.

He  shall  notify  all  members  who  are  at  any  time  in  arrears  for  eleven 
months'  dues,  delivering  the  notice  in  person,  if  practicable,  but  if 
not,  then  mailing  it  to  the  member's  last  known  address,  and  at  the 
expiration  of  the  next  succeeding  month,  if  said  member's  account  is 
not  settled,  in  whole  or  in  part,  sufficient  to  reduce  his  arrears  to  less

Recording  Secretary  for  record  and  for  forwarding  to  the  Grand  Lodge. 
He  shall  receive  such  compensation  as  the  Lodge  may  have  fixed  prior 
to  his  election. 

Resolved,  further,  That  Section  7  of  Article  III,  of  the  Subordinate 
Lodge  Constitution  be  amended  by  striking  out  all  reference  to  the 
giving  of  a  Treasurer's  bond,  so  that  said  section  when  amended  shall 
read  as  follows: 

Section  7.  The  Treasurer  shall  be  elected  annually  at  the  election 
in  March.  He  shall  keep  the  funds,  notes  and  securities  of  the  Lodge; 
pay  all  orders  drawn  on  him  by  the  Noble  Grand  and  attested  by  the 
Secretary,  and  none  other;  keep  a  full  account  of  all  moneys  expended, 
and  give  the  Lodge,  at  the  first  meeting  in  each  month,  a  statement 
of  its  funds.  He  shall  keep  a  separate  account  of  any  special  fund 
instituted  by  the  Lodge,  and  report  to  the  Financial  Secretary,  at  or 
before  the  last  meeting,  in  each  term,  any  money  received  by  him  as 
interest  or  dividends  on  any  notes,  securities  or  stocks  held  by  him. 
He  shall  make  for  the  Lodge,  at  the  close  of  his  term,  a  full  report  of 
his  receipts  and  disbursements,  and  have  his  books  written  up  for 
the  Finance  Committee,  whom  he  shall  meet  prior  to  the  first  meeting

Secretaries  and  Treasurers  of  the  Subordinate  Lodges,  or  any  of  them, 
by  a  suitable  contract  entered  into  between  the  Grand  Lodge,  as  the 
insured,  for  the  use  of  any  Subordinate  Lodge  as  its  interests  may  ap- 
pear, as  party  of  the  first  part,  and  some  responsible  surety  company, 
authorized  to  do  business  in  the  State  of  Illinois,  as  party  of  the  second 
part;  such  contract  to  be  made  subject  to  the  approval  of  the  Grand 
Master  and  the  premium  therefor  to  be  provided  for  by  appropriation 
and  paid  out  of  the  Grand  Lodge  funds.

Your  Committee  on  Finance  would  respectfully  report  as 
follows  on  that  portion  of  the  Grand  Master's  report  on  needs 
of  our  Homes : 

^Your  committee,  after  careful  consideration  of  the  conditions  at 
the  Old  Folks'  Home  and  Orphans'  Home,  and  of  the  finances  of  this 
Grand  Ix)dge,  realize  it  would  be  of  vast  benefit  in  caring  for  old  folks 
that  are  in  feeble  condition  to  have  an  isolated  building,  and  a  new 
chapel  would  be  a  splendid  addition  to  the  Orphans'  Home.  However, 
it  would  mean  a  per  capita  tax  of  at  least  $1.25  and  in  the  opinion  of 
your  committee  at  this  time  it  would  be  a  hardship  to  impose  such  a 
tax  upon  the  membership.  And  your  committee,  at  this  time,  are  op- 
posed to  this  additional  expense,  but  realizing  that  this  is  a  matter  of 
vital  importance,  refer  the  same  to  the  Grand  Lodge  for  their  con-

Your  Committee  on  Legislation  would  respectfully  report  as 
follows  with  reference  to  Document  Xo.  7,  appearing  on  page  379 
of  the  Daily  Journal  of  November  18,  1913,  offered  by  Brothers

Document  No.  12,  appearing  on  page  381  of  said  Daily  Journal, 
and  offered  by  P.  W.  Bussard,  of  No.  124: 

The  subject  matter  embraced  in  these  two  Documents  are  sub- 
stantially the  same  and  refer  to  the  amendment  of  the  Constitution 
and  By-Laws  of  Subordinate  Lodges  with  reference  to  the  payment  of 
sick  and  funeral  benefits  and  expenses. 

Your  committee  beg  leave  to  report  that  the  subjects  mentioned  in 
said  two  Documents  have  been  carefully  considered  by  this  committee 
at  the  present  and  former  sessions  thereof,  and  we  see  no  substantial 
or  valid  reason  why  there  should  be  any  change  in  the  law  upon  this 
subject  as  it  now  exists.

Your  Committee  on  Legislation  would  respectfully  report  as 
follows : 

With  reference  to  Document  No.  8,  as  shown  in  the  Daily  Journal 
of  Tuesday,  November  18,  1913,  offered  by  W.  Littlejohn,  Representa- 
tive, being  a  resolution  directing  the  Grand  Master  of  the  Independent 
Order  of  Odd  Fellows  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  in  communicating  the 
semi-annual  pass-word  to  the  Deputy  of  any  Lodge,  to  require  from 
said  Lodge  a  certificate  showing  his  financial  standing  in  his  Lodge, 
from  the  Financial  Secretary,  duly  signed*  by  the  Noble  Grand,  and 
reciting  a  statement  of  facts  with  reference  to  a  particular  case  aris- 
ing in  their  Lodge  (wherein  a  Deputy  who  was  nine  months  in  arrears 
and  who  would  not  come  and  install  their  officers,  the  said  Deputy 
being  in  possession  of  the  semi-annual  pass-word,  while  76  members 
or  more  in  good  standing  coulud  not  get  the  semi-annual  pass-word). 

Your  committee,  after  full  and  due  consideration  of  the  same, 
respectfully  report  adversely  with  reference  to  taking  any  action  upon 
this  matter  for  the  reason  that  the  practice  is,  and  has  been,  that 
the  respective  Lodges  of  this  Jurisdiction  recommend  the  appoint- 
ment of  the  Deputy  for  their  respective  Lodges,  and  that  this  matter 
is  within  the  control  of  the  respective  Lodges;  and  your  committee

would  recommend  that  the  proposed  amendment  to  the  Subordinate 
Lodge  Constitution  be  not  adopted. 

Your  committee  would  further  report  that  they  have  been  unable 
to  ascertain  the  exact  language  of  the  amendment  to  the  Transfer  Law 
adopted  by  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge.  The  committee  is  also  of  the 
opinion  that  inasmuch  as  this  amendment  to  the  Transfer  Law  does 
not  go  into  effect  until  January  1st,  next,  that  the  proposed  amendment 
of  Brother  Robbins,  if  adopted  at  this  time,  would  be  premature;  and 
these  are  additional  reasons  why  your  committee  does  not  concur  in 
the  propsed  amendment  to  the  Subordinate  Constitution  at  this  time.

Your  Committee  on  Degree  Work  would  respectfully  report 
as  follows : 

The  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois  should  be  extremely  proud  because 
of  the  splendid  work  done  by  the  degree  staffs  which  exemplified  the 
work  last  evening,  and  especially  so  when  the  fact  is  taken  into  con- 
sideration that  the  staff  which  exemplified  the  Initiatory  Degree  was 
composed  of  members  from  three  Lodges  and  that  the  staff  which 
exemplified  the  First  Degree  had  been  organized  but  four  weeks.  The 
degree  staff  for  the  Initiatory  Degree  was  under  the  charge  of 
Brother  W.  W.  Crowder,  of  Teutonia  Lodge  No.  166,  and  was  com- 
posed of  members  of  the  three  lodges  located  in  ,Springfield.  Brother 
Past  Grand  Master  Sayler  being  a  member  of  one  Lodge  and  Brother 
Grand  Secretary  John  H.  Sikes  being  a  member  of  another.  This  union 
of  the  three  Lodges  in  degree  work  exemplifies  the  harmony  and  good 
will  existing  among  the  members  of  the  Lodges  in  Springfield,  and 
which  should  exist  among  the  members  of  all  the  Lodges  throughout 
the  State.  The  staff  which  exemplified  the  first  degree  was  under  the 
leadership  of  Captain  John  Ericsson,  of  Three-Link  Lodge  No.  812. 
The  name  of  this  Lodge  is  emblematical  of  the  harmony  existing  in 
this  staff.  The  fact  that  the  staff  has  been  organized  but  four  weeks, 
should  be  an  incentive  to  all  Lodges  to  do  better  work.  This  staff  was 
under  great  expense,  coming  from  Chicago  at  their  own  expense  to 
exemplify  this  unexcelled  degree. 

We,  the  committee,  feel  that  the    Chief    of  the    Instructors  used 
splendid  judgment  in  choosing  these  staffs  to  exemplify  the  work  at 
the  Grand  Lodge.  The  committee  recommend  that  a  vote  of  thanks  be 
extended  to  these  degree  staffs  for  exemplifying  the  work.

PROCEEDINGS  OF  FOURTH  SESSION 

November    18,    1913. 


CASE  NO.  445. 


Grove  Rebekah  Lodge  No.   431, 

vs.  [■  Before  Committee  on  Judiciary  and 


Mrs.  Lou  Cummins.  )       Appeals,  November,  1913,  Session. 


Opinion  by  Bro.  Chester  M.  Turner,  of  No.  199. 

Tbe  charges  in  this  case  arise  out  of  the  actions  of  the  defendant 
during  the  taking  of  the  testimony  and  the  hearing  of  a  former  case 
between  the  same  parties  in  the  Lodge  room  of  Grove  Rebekah  Lodge 
and  before  this  committee  on  a  hearing  of  said  former  case  on  appeal 
to  this  committee. 

There  are  two  charges;  one  being  that  Sister  Lou  Cummins  is 
guilty  of  making  false  statements  before  the  Committee  on  Judiciary 
and  Appeals  at  this  former  hearing  above  referred  to,  and  the  other 
being  that  Sister  Lou  Cummins  struck  M.  W.  Staples  with  a  stove  poker 
at  the  time  of  the  taking  of  the  testimony  before  the  Commissioner  who 
was  taking  said  testimony  in  the  case  above  referred  to  in  the  hall  of 
said  Rebekah  Lodge. 

The  first  charge  we  do  not  consider  of  sufficient  consequence  upon 
which  to  base  an  opinion  adverse  to  the  trial  Lodge,  and  we  therefore 
concur  in  the  decision  of  the  trial  Lodge  in  dismissing  that  charge. 

However,  as  to  charge  number  two,  we  are  of  the  opinion  that  the 
testimony  is  amply  sufficient  to  sustain  this  charge;  and  while  the 
defendant  did  not  succeed  in  inflicting  injury  upon  Brother  Staples, 
still  she  made  an  effort  to,  and  did  strike  the  blow,  which  was  warded 
off  by  Bro.  Staples.  "The  evidence  preponderates  in  favor  of  a  finding 
that  Bro.  Staples  did  not  at  the  time  afford  the  provocation  claimed 
by  the  defendant  to  have  been  the  cause  of  her  attempt  to  gain  redress 
by  force,  and  we  are  of  the  opinion  that  the  defendant,  Mrs.  Lou  Cum- 
mins, is  guilty  of  charge  number  two. 

It  is  therefore  ordered  that  the  action  of  Triple  Link  Rebekah 
Lodge  No.  577  be  sustained  as  to  charge  number  one;  that  as  to  charge 
number  two,  the  action  of  the  said  Lodge  be  set  aside,  and  the  same  is

hereby  set  aside  and  the  defendant  found  gnily  of  said  charge;  that  the 
penalty  to  be  inflicted  be  that  of  reprimand;  and  that  the  defendant. 
Mrs.  Lou  Cummins,  appear  before  said  Triple  Link  Rebekah  Lodge  No. 
577  within  one  month  from  the  publication  of  this  opinion  and  there  be 
reprimanded  in  open  Lodge  by  the  Noble  Grand  thereof,  or  by  some

(      Thursday,

We  therefore  recommend  that  the  sum  of  $125,770.00,  or  so  much 
thereof  as  may  be  necessary,  be  appropriated  to  provide  for  the  pur- 
poses above  named,  and  that  the  Grand  Master  and  the  Grand  Secre- 
tary be  authorized  to  draw  Grand  Lodge  warrants  on  the  Grand  Treas- 
urer therefor,  at  such  times  and  in  such  amounts  as  may  be  necessary 
to  pay  the  legitimate  bills  of  the  Grand  Lodge  as  itemized  accounts 
therefor  may  be  presented.  We  therefore  recommend  that  a  per  capita 
tax  of  one  dollar  ($1.00)  per  member  be  levied  against  the  Subordinate 
Lodges,  fifty  cents  (50  cents)  to  be  payable  April  1,  1914,  and  fifty  cents 
(50  cents)  to  be  payable  October  1,  1914. 

Signed  by  the  Committee. 

Which  was  adopted. 


CORRECTION. 

In  order  to  keep  within  the  law.  Article  8,  Section  5.  which  pro- 
vides 

"That  there  shall  never  be  appropriated  from  such  capitation  tax 
for  any  one  fiscal  year  a  sum  to  exceed  seventy-five  cents  per  capita 
tax  for  the  Odd  Fellows'  Orphans'  Home  and  the  Odd  Fellows'  Old 
Folks'  Home  for  maintenance  and  all  expenses  of  such  Homes." 

the  Finance  Committee  would  suggest  that  the  appropriation,  Old 
Folks'  Home  building  be  made  to  read  $5,000.00  instead  of  $7,000.00. 
which  would  make  the  total  disbursements  in  this  budget  $123,770.00 
instead  of  $125,770.00.  and  make  the  estimated  balance  $18,447.93.  in- 
stead of  $16,447.93.

472  JOURNAL    OF    PROCEEDINGS  I913 


A  RIPENED  SHEAF  GARNERED 

Samuel  Willard  was  born  in  Lunenburgh,  Vermont,  Dec.  30,  1821. 
The  first  of  his  ancestors  to  emigrate  to  this  country  was  Major  Simon 
Willard  from  the  county  of  Kent,  England,  about  1630.  As  a  civil 
engineer  he  laid  out  the  town  of  Concord,  Mass. 

His  second  son,  from  whom  Bro.  Willard  is  descended,  was  one 
of  the  leading  clergymen  of  New  England  in  his  day,  was  President, 
for  a  time,  of  Harvard  College,  and  pastor  of  the  "Old  South  Church," 
of  Boston,  at  the  time  of  his  death. 

Of  Bro.  Willard's  ancestors,  six  were  clergymen,  three  army 
officers,  two  were  medical  doctors,  and  two  were  professors.  When 
Samuel  was  about  nine  years  old,  his  father  and  family  left  Boston 
and  started  for  the  great  west.  After  enduring  many  hardships,  the 
pioneers  settled  in  the  little  town  of  Carrollton,  111.  Two  years  after, 
the  place  was  stricken  with  the  cholera.  Of  the  family  of  seven,  four 
died,  leaving  the  father,  mother,  and  Samuel,  who  wasi  studiously  pre- 
paring to  enter  college  at  Alton.  At  that  time  the  requirements  and 
curriculum  of  Shurtleff  College  were  the  same  as  that  of  Yale. 

His  father,  Julius  A.  Willard,  moved  his  home  to  Jacksonville 
about  1840,  where  young  Samuel  entered  Illinois  College,  from  which 
he  was  graduated  in  1845.  Dr.  Edward  Beecher,  of  the  famous  Beecher 
family,  was  president.  Among  his  classmates1  were  Judge  Morton,  of 
the  Supreme  Court  of  Kansas,  Dr.  Newton  Bateman,  president  of 
Knox  College,  E.  W.  Blatchford,  of  Chicago,  and  Rev.  Thomas  K. 
Beecher,  a  preacher  of  little  less  fame  than  that  of  his  celebrated 
brother,  Henry  Ward  Beecher. 

While  at  Alton,  Samuel  Willard  often  met  and  listened  to  the 
Lovejoy  Brothers.  Elijah  P.,  editor  of  the  Observer,  was  one  of  the 
first  martyrs  in  Illinois  among  the  abolitionists.  Owen,  by  his  forceful 
oratory,  became  one  of  the  leading  causes  of  our  Civil  War.  The 
home  of  the  Willards  was  one  of  the  stations  of  the  underground 
railroad,  between  slavery  in  the  United  States'  and  freedom  in  the 
British  Dominions.  The  Willards  both  were  earnest  and  zealous  in 
the  abolition  cause.  While  Samuel  was  yet  in  college,  they  were  both 
arrested  for  assisting  a  young  woman  named  Lucy,  a  slave  without  a 
surname.  She  had  escaped  from  her  mistress  in  St.  Louis.  To  test 
the  fugitive  slave  law  in  Illinois,  they  carried  their  cause  to  the 
supreme  court,  lost  and  were  fined.  The  poor  girl  was  returned  to 
slavery. 


19 1 3  GRAND  LODGE  OF  ILLINOIS,  I.  O.  O.  F.  473 

While  attending  college  Bro.  Willard  spent  much  of  his  spare  time 
practicing  music,  of  which  he  was  very  fond.  He  learned  to  play 
several  instruments  and  composed  many  ballads,  songs  and  hymns, 
both  words  and  music,  none  of  which  would  he  ever  allow  to  be 
published.  -  After  his  graduation  from  college  at  Jacksonville,  he  went 
to  Quincy  to  study  medicine.  Here  he  obtained  his  degree  of  M.  D. 
from  Illinois  Medical  College,  which  was  at  that  time  attached  to 
Illinois  College  at  Jacksonville.  While  a  resident  at  Quincy,  in  1849, 
Bro.  Willard  was  initiated  into  the  great  brotherhood  of  Odd  Fellows 
and  at  once  became  an  active  member  of  the  Order. 

After  graduation  Bro.  Willard  returned  to  his  old  home  in  Collins- 
ville  and  united  with  Madison  Lodge  No.  43.  On  passing  the  chairs 
he  was  sent  to  the  Grand  Lodge  as  representative,  being  admitted 
Oct.  12,  1852.  At  once  he  was  appointed  on  one  of  the  most  important 
committees.  At  this  time  there  was  no  compilation  of  the  laws  of 
the  Order.  For  his  own  information  Bro.  Willard  collected  the  frag- 
ments! of  the  transactions  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and  on  his  being  re- 
quested to  do  so,  edited  and  completed  the  first  digest  worthy  of  the 
name.  At  the  1856  session  he  was  elected  Grand  Secretary.  He  held 
this  office  until  his  country  called  in  1861.  He  served  as  army  surgeon 
until  1864.  On  his  return  in  October  he  was  again  elected  Grand 
Secretary,  which  office  he  held  till  1869.  At  the  session  of  the  Grand 
Lodge  of  the  United  States  in  1867,  Bro.  Willard  represented  the  Grand 
Lodge  of  Illinois,  with  honor  to  himself  and  credit  to  his  State. 

Bro.  Willard  was  a  man  of  generous  impulses,  a  loveable  disposi- 
tion and  in  every  way  the  ideal  of  a  true  man.  He  lived  to  the  ripe 
old  age  of  91  years,  filled  with  good  deeds,  and  went  to  his  reward 
Feb.  9,  1913.  The  remains  were  cremated  at  Graceland,  Chicago, 
February  11.

gUntil  1845  Inclusive,  proxy  representation  in  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  United 
States  was  permitted.  In  1839  Fast  Grand  Master  Samuel  Pryor,  of  Pennsylvania, 
was  elected  proxy  Representative  by  the  Grand  Lodge  of  Illinois,  but  did  not  serve. 
At  the  adjourned  session  in  April,  1840,  Past  Grand  Master  Augustus  Mathlot,  of 
Maryland,  presented  credentials  as  proxy  Representative  of  Illinois,  which  were 
accepted,  and  ho  was  also  recognized  in  that  capacity  at  the  annual  session  in 
October  following ;  but  there  is  no  record  of  his  election  or  appointment.  In 
1842  and  1843,  James  Earnest,  of  New  York,  was  elected  and  served  as  proxy 
Representative  of  Illinois.  In  1844  Past  Grand  Master  William  S.  Stewart,  of 
Missouri,  D.D.G.S.,  was  requested  to  appoint  a  proxy  Representative  for  the  Grand 
Lodge  of  Illinois ;  but  no  such  proxy  was  present  at  the  session  of  that  year,  unless 
Stewart  himself  acted  in  that  capacity.  In  1845  no  election  for  Representative 
was  held.
