IFREEMASONRY IN THE DOMINIONlater the first freight train arrived, bringing with it the first printing plant ofwhat was to become The Calgary Herald . The initial issue of that paper carrieda notice calling upon all Masons interested in the formation of a Masonic Lodgeto meet in George Murdock's shack, east of the Elbow River . A photographof this Masonically historic building is still preserved in the archives of BowRiver Lodge, No . i . To the surprise of all, a large number of Masons assembled .R . .W . Bro . Dr . N . J . Lindsay, at that time District Deputy Grand Master forNo . i . (Essex) District of the Grand Lodge of Canada, was elected Chairman,R. W . Bro . George .Murdock, Secretary . From then on meetings were held regularlyevery Friday night, an attendance Register was kept, and Minutes of allproceedings were recorded . No Masonic Work was done and no examinationswere made, however, until the Petition for a Dispensation was about to besigned . This Petition was forwarded to the Grand Lodge of British Columbia .After waiting for a period of from six to seven weeks for a reply, the Petitionersthen sent a second application, this time to the Grand Lodge of Manitoba. A favourable reply was received from both Grand Lodges about the sametime . Communications between Calgary and British Columbia at that time hadto go from Calgary to Winnipeg, from there to Omaha, thence to San Francisco,and from that seaport to Victoria three times weekly . Under such troublesomeconditions of transit, it was therefore considered advisable to accept the Dispensationoffered by the Grand Lodge of Manitoba . Accordingly, the Dispensationwas received on January 12, 1884, and the first meeting held on January 2.8 ofthat year .R. W . Bro . Dr. N . J . Lindsa y was designated first Worshipful Master .Subsequently he attended a meeting of the Grand Lodge of Manitoba, held inWinnipeg on February i i, at which Communication he was elected junior GrandWarden . At that meeting a Charter was granted to Bow River Lodge, at Calgary,recorded as No . 2.8 on the Register of the Grand Lodge of Manitoba . Onthe Grand Register of Alberta this Lodge is now known as Bow River Lodge,No . i . At the same Communication of the ; Grand Lodge of Manitoba in 1884,Charters were also granted to Lodges at Regina and at Moosomin . These threenewly Chartered Lodges, together with the Lodges at Edmonton and PrinceAlbert, might legally have formed a Grand Lodge for the Northwest Territories,which at that time comprised the Districts of Saskatchewan, Assiniboia, andAlberta, all of which were ruled by one territorial government . But even at thatdate it was considered probable that Provincial formations were not far distant,and it was recognised that a Territorial Grand Lodge might eventually be brokenby the ultimate division of the Territories into Provinces . It was accordinglydecided to leave the matter in abeyance . The events which later transpiredproved that those early Masons had been right, the three Districts which thenformed the Northwest Territories have since been divided into two Provinces,Alberta and Saskatchewan, the District of Assiniboia having been absorbedby the latter .Until the formation of the Grand Lodges of Alberta and Saskatchewan, theGrand Lodge of Manitoba claimed jurisdiction over all the Northwest Terri-
