White Mountain Lodge #3
History
In the latter part of the year 1879, the few members of the Masonic fraternity residing at and in the vicinity of Globe, which was part of Pinal county, assembled for the purpose of discussing the advisability of establishing a lodge of Free & Accepted Masons. With no more that a half a dozen very enthusiastic Masons present, the meeting was held and first steps started for an organization.
A committee on credentials was appointed to ascertain if a sufficient number of masons could be procured, who would be willing to dimit from their respective lodges in order to establish one here, but owing to the slow methods of transportation of mails in those days, progress was very slow.
At a meeting in May 1880 this committee reported that nine dimits had been placed in the their hands, and at the same time offered the following resolution.
“ Resolved:” That while we realize that the real strength of our order, lies not in the numbers, but in absolute unswerving fidelity to its principles and teachings. True masonry is the upbuilding and uplifting of the individual character, having for its aim and object, the advancement of everything that stands for more intelligent citizenship and cleaner lives.
Be it further resolved; that this committee procure sufficient donations from the brothers to defray the expenses of a dispensation, lodge furniture, Jewels, etc. and to make application for a dispensation at once.
These resolutions were unanimously adopted.
White Mountain was chosen for the name of the lodge and
Alexander Hamilton Morehead, was named Worshipful Master,
Alonzo Bailey as Senior Warden and
Jacob Abraham as Junior Warden.
It was evident that the hard work and enthusiasm of the Masons scattered around an isolated mining district would result in a fast growing lodge.
The Grand jurisdiction of California prohibited the holding of Masonic Lodges on the ground floor, while that of New Mexico allowed such meetings provided that they were safe from intrusion and properly tiled. There being no two story buildings in Globe at that time, it was manifest that application must be made to the Grand Lodge of New Mexico and some of the brothers being personally acquainted with the Grand Officers of that jurisdiction, no trouble was anticipated in securing a dispensation from that source with the least possible trouble and expense.
The Altar, Pillars, Pedestals, columns and other lodge furniture was designed and put together by local carpenters, the jewels were made from tin neatly cut out by our local tin smith, (Brother Jacob Abraham) which suspended by collars of blue ribbon, presented a very unique appearance of which the members were very proud.
In the meantime and while patiently waiting news of the dispensation, Mr. John Kennedy an enterprising citizen was induced to erect a second story on one of his buildings on the West side of Broad street, at the St. Elmo (La Casita restaurant now occupies this site.), which we readily accepted on a not less than five year lease.
Occasional meetings were held by the brothers to familiarize themselves with the ritual adopted by the Grand Lodge of New Mexico and agreeable to ancient customs, these meetings were held on the high hills and in the low valleys, one place of meeting was held in a lonely cabin on what is now called Nob Hill, this cabin has been preserved and is dedicated to White Mountain Lodge, another place of meeting was in a lonely cabin in the wilderness back of and near the Kinney house, these meetings was greatly enjoyed by all the brethren.
Patience was finally rewarded by the receipt of the dispensation, authorizing the persons named in the application and others to legally open a regular lodge and to confer the three degrees of masonry.
On the second day of August 1880, the first meeting was held under dispensation, the officers being:
Alexander H. Morehead, Worshipful Master
Alonzo Bailey, Senior Warden
Jacob Abraham, Junior Warden
Alexander D. Skinner, Senior Deacon
Ben F Pascoe, Junior Deacon
Ernest F Kellner, Secretary
The date of the regular monthly communication to be held in the future was to be each Thursday night on or succeeding each full moon.
At the meeting held November 19, 1880. Brothers Cornelius Burns and Albert Young were raised to the Sublime degree of Master Masons, they being the first ones to be raised by this lodge.
On the 18th day of January, 1881 a charter was granted under the name and number White Mountain Lodge No. 5, A.F.& A.M. with the same brethren named therein as in the old dispensation.
On the 22nd day of February 1881, with new furniture and a complete set of new jewels, purchased in the east, a public ceremony was held in the Methodist church and the following charter officers were duly installed:
Alexander Hamilton Morehead as Worshipful Master;
Alonzo Bailey as Senior Warden;
Jacob Abraham as Junior Warden;
George Henry Cook, Treasurer;
Ernest Frederick Kellner, Secretary;
Francis Newton Howell, Senior Deacon;
Benjamin Franklin Pascoe, Junior Deacon;
William Tucker, Senior Deacon;
The lodge room was then duly and constitutionally dedicated and consecrated to Free Masonry according to the impressive ritual of the order.
At a regular meeting held on April 14th, 1881 a committee was appointed to look after the ventilation in the hall and also put a fence around the Masonic Cemetery and erect a headboard for Brother Morrow.
A Special Communication was held September 26, 1881 for the purpose of holding funeral services for our late Brother James A Garfield, President of the United States who died September 19, 1881.
A committee was appointed to draft Resolutions of Respect and they were published in the Globe Chronicle and Silver Belt and a copy sent to the bereaved family.
On February 2, 1882 a committee was appointed to correspond with the several Masonic Lodges throughout the Territory to obtain their views regarding the advisability and necessity of establishing a Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in Arizona.
On the 25th day of March 1882, the Grand Lodge of Arizona was regularly organized and duly constituted and recognized as such by the Grand Lodges of New Mexico and California. This lodge then applied to the Grand Lodge of Arizona and a charter was issued by that body to White Mountain Lodge No. 3 F. & A.M. George J Roskruge, Grand Secretary and Ansel Melton Bragg, Grand Master signed the charter.
The following officers served during the first year after the Charter had been granted.

MASONIC TEMPLE, GLOBE, ARIZONA WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 7TH 1925.
This evening we met to celebrate what many of us have looked forward to for many years, namely, the date when we might say that this Temple was entirely free from debt, and is peculiarly fitting that we celebrate on this particular evening as just twelve years ago tonight we held our first meeting in this Temple.
In addition to celebrating the great achievement, it was the desire to do honor to our Past Master Thomas Abbott Pascoe, to whose financial genius a great portion of the success is due.
The tables in the banquet hall were comfortably filled at 6.30 P.M. with a gathering of 130 masons comprising most of the resident members of this Lodge and many visitors from Doric Lodge #26 of Miami, with a goodly number from Lodges scattered throughout the State and Country.
The menu which had been kindly prepared by the ladies of Globe Chapter No. 27, Order of Eastern Star consisted of Young roast turkey, with dressing and Cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, green peas, not rolls, coffee and chocolate with celery, pickles and olives. The dinner was most excellently prepared, deftly served and was enjoyed most heartily.
Professor W.K, Blackstone with the assistance of Donald and Robert White and Miss Dorothy Johns played a march, after which Bro. Guy A Ligon as Toastmaster called on Bro. Brewster for the invocation.
During the entire evening Professor Blackstone with the Orchestra played many selections, which were highly appreciated.
Past Master George Cook gave a very interesting and detailed talk on the early struggles of the Lodge to find a suitable location and after having found it, to finance the building of the Temple. Great stress was laid upon the invaluable services of Bros. Paul Michaelson and Charles H Weideman to whom the final selection of the plan was left. Bro. Michaelson actually superintended all the work and gave his services for practically nothing. Bro. Michaelson was here asked to stand and be introduced to those who had never met him. Bro. Michaelson in a few well-chosen remarks depreciated the kind words spoken of him by Bro. Cook and while acknowledging that he had helped, still said that the success was due to many others who had also helped in the work. Bro.Cook then went on to tell us of the hard and difficult task then entered into by Bro. Pascoe who untiringly devoted most of his time to the work of financing the building.
Bro. Pascoe was refused help from several sources from which he expected it, but undaunted, kept at the job until all the funds were raised to complete the structure. The brethren all united in expressing their high appreciation of Bro. Pascoe’s efforts to secure the financial stability of the Lodge.
Between the set speeches, Bro. Fred A Shaffer was much complimented for the splendid manner in which he led the singing by all of those present in a number of familiar songs the words of several of which had been changed and composed by Bro. James Malott, present Junior Warden to suit the occasion.
In “A Voice From Doric” by Past Master Everett H McEachren of Doric # 26, he complimented the Lodge highly upon the success of its achievement in ridding the building of debt, and told of the success that Doric Lodge was meeting with present, having now a total of 267 members. He paid a fitting tribute to their first Master, Bro. George S Sloan who had worked actively to bring the Lodge to its present high degree of usefulness, and to Bro. Clarence E. Payer its first Secretary.
Bro. Charles L Rawlins under the head of “Leadership” paid numerous high tributes to Bro. Pascoe in connection with the financing of the Temple and mentioned many instances of Bro. Pascoe’s generosity in assisting people and enterprises that had come to his notice. His urgent and strong advice that no debt on the building whatsoever met with the wholehearted approval of those present.
Very interesting and pleasing addresses were made by Past Master Frank Robertson, Wilbur C McKenzie and Joseph Sattler as well as William W. Thornton, the present Master of Doric No. 26.
Bro. John D Wick, Past Master of this Lodge who was associated with Bro. Pascoe as Trustee of the Lodge during almost the entire term of its indebtedness gave many interesting details connected with the arrangements made for financing the building, paying a very high tribute to Bro. Pascoe as a Mason and true friend and stated that it was the intention of the Lodge to have an enlarged portrait of Bro. Pascoe made and hung in a conspicuous place, where in years to come newcomers might see what he thought should be termed the portrait of the “Father of White Mountain Lodge.”
Worshipful Master Herbert H Price in a few well-chosen words thanked Bro. Wick, stating that the Lodge would be very glad to receive such a portrait and give it due honor.
The members then adjourned to the Lodge room, where Bro. Pascoe escorted by Bros. Cook and Price proceeded to burn the mortgage.
This proved to be a highly impressive and memorable ceremony.
The brethren gathered around the altar on which was placed the urn for the destruction of the mortgage. In a period of respectful silence, Bro. Pascoe who carried the document in his right hand, slowly advanced and placed it in the vessel, while Bro. Cook applied the match, which ended the existence of the document.
It was during this impressive moment that Bro. Pascoe, who was deeply affected by the great occasion, cordially thanked the brethren for the self-sacrificing manner in which they had backed up his efforts for so many years. He added “I have looked forward to this moment for many years and I am satisfied.”
As the mortgage burned to ashes, Bro. Pascoe concluded his brief remarks with the words. “It is finished.”
At the conclusion of the shout ceremony, Brother Brewster pronounced the Benediction.
The solid copper receptacle or bowl in which the mortgage was burned was furnished through the courtesy of our brother Thomas H Donahue of the Inspiration Consolidated Copper Company, and made of native copper at the International Smelting Company.
It was planned to hold the receptacle intact with its contents.
The Secretary was instructed to write to Bro. Donahue thanking him for the courtesy, which was greatly appreciated.
The ladies taking part in the serving of the banquet under the leadership of Mrs. Stella Kerr, Worthy Matron of Globe Chapter No. 27, Order of Eastern Star and to whom special thanks are due, were Mesdames Emma Reynolds, Lena Sturgeon, Rose Hocking, Florence Langdon, Rose Childress, Margaret Ill, Gertrude Price, Anna Knight, Stella Childs, Laura Casaboom, Lucy Young, Hester Oliver, Margarite Moyers and Sadie Wood.

This Lodge was fortunate this year as having been named as the official entertainers of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Arizona and the concordant bodies. The Grand Lodge was convened Tuesday, February 16, 1931, at 10AM with very large representations of Master Masons from this state and elsewhere.
On the afternoon of February 11th, the Grand Lodge was called from Labor to Refreshment for the purpose of dedicating our hall; this being the fiftieth anniversary of the organization of this lodge. The members of the Order of Eastern Star were invited to attend. The ceremony which was very impressive was presided over by Past Grand Master Brother Morris Goldwater, with Past Master Reverend Brother Robert Scott Calder acting as Grand Chaplain.
Despite the great depression throughout the country and the world at large, the Lodge has held its own and shows a net gain of four members for the year.
Though we have had an unusual number of calls for assistance, we are proud to say we have promptly met them.
We were fortunate in securing through the kind assistance of Mrs. Alonzo Bailey, widow of our Brother Past Grand Master Alonzo Bailey, the location of the cabin in which our brothers met prior to the organization of this Lodge. It now stands back of the brick building formerly occupied by Brother Bailey as a residence on the northeast corner of Hill and Bailey Streets.
