Dedication of New Odd Fellows Hall at Decatur

About 260 Odd Fellows from three city lodges and 40 Nucampment members rode a special train to Decatur for the dedication of the new hall. The event featured regalia displays, an official ritual, and speeches after a public service, with Fort Wayne and St Mary’s Lodges aiding, followed by supper and socializing at local venues. The hall, a brick three story building costing $13,000 by Moellering & Co., is praised as the finest in the state and designed for lodge activities and community use.
