* On March 13, 1802, the Lodge "Voted that we purchase the piece of land between Esq'r Hammatts & Doct Gelston's houses, belonging to Wm. Rotch, for which he asks $1200. " It was also voted to build a Mason's hall on the said land. This was the location just west of the Pacific Bank building, and the building now standihg there is the one which was erected. On the 24th of June following, at 12 o'clock Noon, the Lodge laid the corner-stone for the new building with appropriate Masonic services, ...and following the ceremony forty-two Brethren observed the day, which was the anniver- sary of the Feast of St. John the Baptist, with a dinner, t December 27, 1802, the Lodge marched to the Congrega- tional meeting-house, where a sermon was preached by Rev. James Gurney, which proved so satisfactory that, on February jo following, the Lodge voted to present him a "beaver hatt for his services on the 27th of December Last. " * It is not clear at this time why Union Lodge was numbered 1, as there were several which had precedence in age, at least nine in Massa- chusetts under the united Grand Lodges.
