The Masonic Hall

 
The ground floor of the Masonic Hall was built in 1862 by John S. child to provide his Chinese cook with a business to enable him to reenter the U.S. from China.  The structure was sold to merchants Noah Blossom and J.R. Johnson who allowed the Masons to add the second story to their hall in 1874.  The lodge meets regularly in the old hall which has recently been renovated by the members of the group.
