Euclid Lodge, A.F. & A.M.
403-R Washington Street
Braintree, Massachusetts 02184
Received dispensation on February 23, 1916. Received its charter from Grand Lodge on December 19, 1916. The idea for a daytime lodge was the outgrowth of a dinner club of Master Masons, at the New England Conservatory of Music, whose evening professional engagements, like so many entertainers as well as our Brethren who worked in the evening, prevented them from attending their own lodges. The lodge can lay claim to a number of top professional entertainers, most notably Metropolitan Opera star baritone John Charles Thomas, Worshipful Norm L. Crosby and Worshipful William J. Peterson. Both Wor. Crosby and Wor. Peterson are Past Masters of Euclid Lodge.
Erwin Gastel once wrote in the communication of the Lodge:
"May I bespeak for Daylight Lodge that each succeeding year will find our membership in closer bonds of friendship, exemplifying in our daily life all the teachings of our wonderful order - this, and only this, will lead us to the realization of the Perfect Life, exemplified in our Degrees, which will spell progress and success for our Lodge."
