 INTRODUCTION 
 
 The oldest secret fraternity in the State of IlHnois and known 
 as the Ancient Order of Free and Accepted Masons was found- 
 ed at Kaskaskia in the year 1806 with General John Edgar its 
 first Worshipful ]^Iaster. The charter members of this Lodge 
 played a more or less important part in the early history of Illi- 
 nois, then known as the territory of Indiana. The early history 
 of ^Masonry, like the early settlements, is more or less frag- 
 mentary and unreliable. It is safe to say, however, that the 
 records of the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania clearly prove that a 
 dispensation was granted by that Lodge to John Edgar and others 
 prominent in the early history of the territory and Western Star 
 Lodge No. 107 was instituted at Kaskaskia, which final report to 
 the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania was made to that body in 1806. 
 Edgar was the first Worshipful blaster and Avas prominent in 
 the history of the State, Edgar County now bearing his Uc-me. 
 Not much more of ]\Iasonic history is known until after the ad 
 mission of lUinois as a state, when in 1822 the first Grand Lodge 
 of Illinois was organized at Vandalia. Governor Shadrach Bond, 
 the first Governor of the State, was also the first Grand Master 
 of this new lodge. The name of Bond also lives in State history. 
 Bond County bearing his name. Both Bond and Edgar were out- 
 standing characters and both influential in securing the admission 
 of the State in the Union as a Free State. Today, one hundred 
 and seven years after that date, history is again being made, as 
 we now have a Grand ^Master who is also Governor of the State 
 at the same time in the person of Governor Louis L. Emmerson, 
 whose portrait appears as the frontispiece to this little booklet. 
 
 From 1822 to 1840 we have little knowledge of the progress of 
 Masonry in Illinois. This was the period of the strong anti- 
 Masonic feeling, which we feel might 'be interesting to our read- 
 ers at this point in our story. 
 
 "Anti-^Iasonry was the outcome of a highly active religious 
 ferment in Central New York in the third decade of the nine- 
 teenth century. A series of novel religious movements ( Unitar- 
 ianism. Univorsalism. Campbellism. ]\Iillerism. ]\Iormonism. and 
 several others), all of which were counted "liberal" or at least 
 distinctly unorthodox in their principles, were making consider- 
 able headway at the time to the great distress of the more ortho- 
 dox. The result was a vigorous reaction in orthodox circles, the 
 leaders of which now declared war on all liberal bodies, new or 
 old. Inasmuch as the Masons, while maintaining a religious
 
 tradition, did not apply a severely orthodox test in admitting 
 members to their lodges, certain denominations, particularly the 
 Baptist, the Congregationalist, and the Quaker, to whom all 
 ritualistic practices were abhorrent, were strong in their con- 
 demnation of the ]\Iasonic ritual. Others, whose religious feel- 
 ings were less intense, disliked the use of official titles, which to 
 them savored of aristocracy. The fact that many of the higher 
 offices in state and nation were held by ^Masons led some to fear 
 that the lodges were plotting to seize the government. 
 
 "All these forms of opposition to the Masonic order were sud- 
 denly fused by the disappearance of William Morgan in 1826. 
 The attack now become an organized movement and soon drew to 
 itself various elements that had no great interest in anti-Masonry 
 as such, but hoped to use the new party in their fight against 
 Jacksonian Democracy. That anti-Masonry very soon became a 
 political movement and nothing more is shown by the fact that in 
 1832 its candidate for the presidency was WilHam Wirt who had 
 once become a Mason and had never left the order. Not long 
 after this the Anti-Masonic party joined with other dissatisfied 
 elements to form the party of the Whigs." 
 
 Thus we may readily see a reason for this lull in ]\Iasonic work 
 in Illinois, but there is no doubt that several lodges existed, re- 
 ceiving their charters from variovis states, some from Pennsyl- 
 vania, Kentticky, Missouri, Indiana, and possibly others. Repre- 
 sentatives of these lodges were finally called together at Jackson- 
 ville, Illinois, in the following manner: 
 
 SECOND GRAND LODGE 
 
 On January 20th, 1840, at a convocation of Masons, held at 
 Jacksonville, in the Masonic Hall, steps were taken to organize .' 
 Grand Lodge of Masons in Illinois. In pursuance to such meet- 
 ing a convention was called on the sixth day of April, 1840. The 
 following representatives attended this meeting : James Adams, 
 Springfield No. 26; H. Rodgers, No. 4; H. Dills of Bodley No. 
 97; W. D. McCann, Columbus No. 20; J. T. Jones. Equality No. 
 10; D. Rockwell. Far West No. 29; W. B. Warren and A. Dun- 
 lap, Harmony No. 24. Other brethren were present. These are 
 the lodges named in the Grand Lodge proceedings of that date. 
 Other history purporting to give a much larger number than this 
 has been discarded in this narrative. The above six lodges were 
 represented, the resolution was adopted that these lodges be rep- 
 resented, as a matter of right and conducive to general benefit
 
 of ^lasonry that a Grand Lodge be established in the State of 
 Illinois by the name of the Grand Lodge of Illinois. A committee 
 was appointed to draft and report a constitution and by-laws of 
 the Grand Lodge. A motion to locate the Grand Lodge failed. 
 In the afternoon, however, the Grand Lodge was located at Jack- 
 sonville. The grand officers elected were as follows: 
 
 Aljraham Jonas, Grand Master H. Rodgas. Grand Junior 
 James Adams, Deputy Grand Warden 
 
 ]^Iaster W. B. Warren, Grand .Secre- 
 S \'ance. Grand Senior W^ar- tary 
 
 den A. Dunlap, Grand Treasurer 
 
 Other business was transacted and closed. 
 
 The first annual convocation of the Grand Lodge of Illinois 
 was held at Jacksonville October 20th. 1840. The officers were: 
 
 Abraham Jonas, Grand ]\Iaster 
 
 James Adams, Deputy Grand A. Dunlap, Grand Treasurer 
 
 Master P. Coffman. Grand Senior 
 S. \'ance. Grand Senior War- Deacon 
 
 den AI. Stacy, Grand Junior 
 H. Rodgas. Grand Junior Deacon 
 
 Warden 'SI. Helm, Grand ^Marshal 
 
 \\'. B. Warren, Grand Secre- C. Ludlum. Grand Prelate 
 
 tary 
 
 A. C. Dixon. Grand Stewart and Tyler 
 
 There were four lodges represented. Several visitors were 
 present. A petition from several brethren at Peoria was received 
 and read by the Grand Secretary, referred to Committee on 
 Petitions who advised granting their request as soon as they 
 complied with the By-Laws. Other business and election of of- 
 ficers were attended to, officers installed and Grand Lodge closed 
 after a meeting of two days. 
 
 The Second Grand Lodge was convened at Jacksonville on 
 Oct. 4th. 1814. Four lodges were represented, with several 
 visitors present. At this session petitions were received from 
 Joliet, Dixon and Chicago, praying for charters. Several changes 
 were made in the by-laws and so on through the years we find 
 the Grand Lodge increasing in numbers and membership. It is 
 interesting to note that on Oct. 5th, 1852 a resolution was adopt- 
 ed asking that all lodges observe the date of Washington being 
 admitted to ^Masonry, and now at the close of 1928 there were
 
 ioo6 lodges working in the State of Illinois with a total member- 
 ship of 293,157 members. 
 
 We now close the story of Masonry in Illinois and con- 
 fine the remainder of the narrative to the history of Urbana 
 Lodge No. 157 Ui^bana, Illinois, with the personal history of its 
 forty-two Past blasters and roster of the Lodge membership. 
 
 LOCAL LODGE 
 Brethren : 
 
 More than three score ten and five years ago some men, 
 Masons of Urbana and vicinity, conceived the idea of establish- 
 ing in Urbana a lodge of Masons. Our records and the records 
 of the Grand Lodge are silent as to the date of institution or place 
 where instituted, but we find that the Lodge did, on various dates, 
 from July 15th to October 3rd, 1854, do Masonic work, and that 
 the Grand Lodge, after hearing the report of the committee on 
 lodges under dispensation, did grant a charter to the Urbana 
 Lodge No. 157 at the morning session of the Grand Lodge, 
 October 3rd, 1854, appointing John P. Tenbrook, Worshipful 
 Master, James Miller, Senior Warden, and William Stewart, 
 Junior Warden. 
 
 The charter members were as follows : John P. Tenbrook, 
 farmer ; James Wilson, farmer ; William Stewart, merchant ; Wil- 
 liam D. Somers, lawyer; William Lewis, sheriff; Jesse W. 
 Jaquith, druggist; James L. Cain; Thomas M. Owens, merchant; 
 Washington W. Beasley, farmer; William C. Cassel, carpenter; 
 Elisha Harkness, merchant; James D. Wilson, saddler; John E. 
 Dugan, butcher ; and Miles Hamilton, farmer. 
 
 From the Urbana Union files we learn that on December 28th, 
 1854, at the Court house in Urbana, Lodge No. 157 F. & A. W. 
 held installation of officers. The following were installed: 
 
 John P. Tenbrook, W. M. Wm. C. Cassel, S. D. 
 
 James Miller, S. W. John D. Thomas, J. D. 
 
 J. N. Philips, J. W. J. W. Ja(iuith, Secretary 
 
 Joseph Parks, Treasurer. Drake Manning, Tyler 
 
 "The streets were in an unpleasant condition and there was a 
 large attendance." You will note that the Charter named Wil- 
 liam Stewart as Junior Warden and at this installation J. N. 
 Philips was installed. There must have been an election held 
 between the granting of the Charter Oct. 3rd and this installation 
 on Dec. 28th, 1854. Another installation was held at the Court
 
 House on Jan. 3rd. 1856 and the follr)\ving were installed : 
 A. :\I. Whitney, W. M. 
 James Miller, S. W. 
 Wm. C. Cassell. J. W. 
 The banquet was held at the Champaign House. 
 
 In this same issue of the Urbana Union appeared the first 
 notice of ^Masonic meetings on the first Saturday of each month. 
 
 On Oct. 3rd, 1854 when Urbana lodge No. 157 was granted a 
 Charter, the then Grand Master, Brother Wm. B. Warren, was 
 sick, and unable to attend the Grand Lodge meeting, and the 
 Grand ?.Iaster's address was not given in full, but in that part 
 of his address which was given, he did state that he had granted 
 eighteen dispensations to institute lodges, but did not give name 
 or number of lodges. Therefore it is presumed that he had 
 granted a dispensation to the Urbana lodge which had done some 
 work along this line. From our records we find that between 
 July 15th, 1854. and Oct. 3rd. 1854, Urbana lodge had received 
 petitions to the number of ten. and conferred degrees as follows: 
 eight Aj)prentice degrees ; three Fellowcraft degrees. There were 
 no third degrees conferred until October 3rd, 1854. The first 
 petitions received were on July 15th. D. C. Hill and John B. 
 Thomas were the petitioners. On August 12th there were eight 
 petitions, David A. Brenton, A. O. Clapp, Wiley Davis, Z. E. 
 Gill, William Park, Pleasant ^I. Parks. Fielding L. Scott and 
 John B. Thomas. 
 
 The first degree conferred by Urbana lodge was on August 
 I2th, 1854. D. C. Hill and John B. Thomas were the candidates. 
 The first Fellowcraft degree was conferred on September 9th, 
 John B. Thomas being the candidate. The first Third degree 
 was conferred on October 7th. on John B. Thomas, he being the 
 first Master Mason of Urbana lodge. We have not been able to 
 find where any of the charter members were made Master 
 ^lasons. 
 
 Our records do not show where Urbana lodge was organized. 
 The best memory of older citizens would indicate that the hall 
 used was the old Gere Hall which was destroyed in the fire of 
 187 1. We are sure that after the Lodge had existed for ten or 
 twelve years, it met in what is now known as the Odd Fellows 
 Hall, corner of Race and Main, the Lodge owning the upper part 
 of the building, which they sold to the Odd Fellows about the 
 year 1888. Our records show that on January 15th. 1889. Wor- 
 shipful ^Master Frederick E. Eubling, acting by proxy of the
 
 Most Worshii)tul Grand ^Master. John C. Smith, dedicated a 
 Alasonic Hall in the Tiernan Block, after selling the old hall at 
 the corner of Race and Main. The cost of the new hall was 
 $11,177.77. Judge Joseph O. Cunningham acted as Grand 
 Orator. On November 17th, 1914, after remodelling the same 
 building at a cost of approximately $50,000, we find another dedi- 
 cation of this Hall to Masonic service by the Most Worshipful 
 Grand Master A. F. & A. M. of Illinois, Brother Henry T. Bur- 
 nap. Reverend Brother Stephen Fisher, Grand Orator, and the 
 late William G. Spurgin, Chairman of the Building Committee. 
 
 x-Vt the present time this Hall is the home of the following 
 branches of the order: Urbana Lodge No. 157 A. F. & A. M. ; 
 Urbana Chapter No. 80 R. & A. M. ; Urbana Council No. 19 
 R. & S. M.; Urbana Commandery No. 16, K. T, ; Hope Chapter 
 No. 104 O. E. S. ; Urbana Conclave No. 15 True Kindred. 
 
 In passing let us note that the first Masonic Hall in America 
 is mentioned by Benjamin Franklin in the Philadelphia Gazette 
 and was erected in Philadelphia, 1754, just one hundred years 
 before the institution of Urbana lodge. Benjamin Franklin, by 
 the way, was Worshipful Master of the first Masonic lodge in 
 America some three or four years after its institution. It is in- 
 teresting to note that the following signers of the Declaration of 
 Independence were Masons : 
 
 Benj. Franklin Thos. McKean 
 
 Lyman Hall Thos. Nelson, Jr. 
 
 John Hancock Robt. Treat Payne 
 
 Jos. Hewes John Penn 
 
 Wm. Hooper Roger Sherman 
 
 Rich. Stockton Matthew Thornton 
 
 Geo. Walton Wm. Whipple 
 
 John Witherspoon 
 And speaking of prominent personages who have been Masons, 
 we might say in this connection that ten of the presidents of the 
 United States have been Masons. Also that sixty-four of the 
 present United States Senators, and two hundred and ninety-five 
 Congressmen are Masons, the latter body 'being graced by two 
 members of the Eastern Star. 
 
 We now turn to the Masonic history of the past Masters, 
 LTrbana Lodge, forty-two in number, twenty-one of which have 
 passed to the celestial Lodge, and an equal number, twenty-one, 
 remain with us.

 that since Brother S. J. demitted on August 3rd, 1867, he must have" 
 been elected as early as the first Saturday in December 1866. 
 
 Judge Joseph O. Cunningham, the Sixth Worshipful Master of 
 Urbana Lodge, was born at Lancaster, New York, on December 12, 
 1830. In 1833, his parents removed to an uncleared farm near Clarks- 
 vJlle, Ohio. It was here that Judge Cunningham received his early 
 education, in a log schoolhouse. At nineteen years of age, he began 
 teaching a country school, in which occupation he was engaged for 
 three years. He spent three years in Oberlin College and at Baldwin 
 Institute in Ohio, and in June, 1853, came to Champaign County, Illi- 
 nois, where he resided until his death on April 30, 1917. 
 
 Shortly after his arrival in this county. Judge Cunningham became 
 one of the proprietors and the editor of the Urbana Union, which 
 paper had been owned by Colonel W. N. Coler, of this city. Under 
 Judge Cunningham's management, the Union became a zealous sup- 
 porter of Abraham Lincoln in the Lincoln-Douglas campaign of 1858. 
 He was also associated, in 1858, with Dr. J. W. Scroggs in the publi- 
 cation of the Central Illinois Gazette at Champaign, then West 
 Urbana. 
 
 Judge Cunningham was of a literary turn of mind. In addition 
 to his newspaper work, he wrote a History of Champaign County, in 
 which is preserved a large amount of matter bearing upon the local 
 and general history of this county. He was admitted to the bar in 
 April, 1855, and later, in 1858-1859, took a year's course in the law 
 school at Cleveland, Ohio. He practiced forty-seven years in Ui'bana, 
 and was aii able, conscientious counsellor and adviser to his clients. 
 He served one term as Judge of the County Court of Champaign 
 County, and two terms of four years each as a Trustee of the Uni- 
 versity. He collaborated with William C. Jones in writing and pub- 
 lishing a work on "County and Probate Court Practice." 
 
 On October 13, 1853, Judge Cunningham was married to Miss Marie 
 McConughey. He was charitably inclined, and in 1894 he and Mrs. 
 Cunningham gave their home, northeast of Urbana, with fifteen acres 
 of ground in connection therewith, for a deaconess' home and orphan- 
 age, which home is now known as the Cunningham Children's Home. 
 He became a member of the Methodist Church of this city in 1866, 
 and so remained until his death. 
 
 In his law practice. Judge Cunningham was a contemporary of 
 Abraham Lincoln, and was practicing at the Champaign County Bar 
 when Judge David Davis was on the old Eighth Judicial Circuit. 
 
 Judge Cunningham was one of nature's noblemen, and during his 
 long life in this commhnity he always stood for those things which 
 he believed would be for the betterment of the community and of its 
 citizens. 
 
 SEVENTH MASTER. Myron S. Brown, doctor, petitioned Urbana
