The Masonic Hall
The Masonic Hall was completed in 1870, some thirteen years after Summit Lodge No. 112 was
granted its charter. Raising the money apparently took some doing. The Masons held their meetings
on the upper floor, while Dr. James Lowe rented the lower, where he operated a drug store for
many years. The balconied, two-story building is located on a knoll above Main Street, facing the
river below.
