Book Description
Excerpt from The White Apron: A Compilation of the History of Occidental Lodge, No. 40, A. F. And A. M., Ottawa, Illinois, With a Complete List of Members From the Date of Dispensation, 1845, to October 10, 1906, and a Summary of Her Daughter, Humboldt Lodge, No. 555, A. F. And A. M Where, not more than a century ago, the Indian was the sole possessor of the prairies and forests of this beau tiful valley, and the buffalo, elk and deer were his herds, and the Indian wigwams were pitched in the shady groves, fragrant with blossoms of the wild plum and wild apple, along the banks of rippling streams of pure and crystal like waters, from which the Indian maiden angled the most delicious of black bass and pickerel for the evening meal of the Indian warrior on his return from the chase, is now the center of the most highly civilized nation on the face of the earth.
