MASONRY
William Sheldon, Azor Curtis, Thomas C. Ladd, Consider Warner, Orator II. Kendall, Daniel Biddlecome and others, who had remained true to their principles, succeeded in their well directed efforts to secure its removal from Attica to Le Roy.
The first meeting of the lodge at Le Roy was held January 27, 184;, with Lueius Parks presiding as master. The first candidate initiated was Patrick Hasset, who became a Mason at the second meeting, hield February 24. From that date to the present time the lodge has enjoyed a career of great prosperity and growth. June 22, 1820, its semi-cen- tennial was celebrated at Starr hall in Le Roy. At the banquet at Central hall which concluded the day's festivities, covers were laid for one thousand persons, including many men of prominence, some of whom came from distant parts of the State. On that occasion the W. M., W. S. Brown, delivered a historical sketch, and R. W. John R. Anderson made the principal address William H. C Hosmer of Avon read an original poem, written especially for the occasion.
Connected with Olive Branch Lodge is Le Roy Chapter No. 183. Royal Arch Masons, which was organized December 12, 1861. John R. Andrews was the first high priest, C. Fitch Bissell was the first king and Marcus L. Babcock was the first seribe. The remaining charter members were John Butterfield, William Sheldon, Lucius Parks, Con- sider Warner, Orator H. Kendall, Albert Brewster, William Barnett, Nelson Thayer, William M. Irish, Charles Cravens, Themas C. Ladd, William M. Tompkins, Robert F. Stage and Robert MeKay.
The early Masons of Le Roy were enthusiastic to a degree that was unusual in those days. Not satisfied with meeting in rooms rented for the purpose, they decided. in 1825, to build a Masonic temple for their uses. The first meetings of the first lodge had been held in the village school house, and in the ball room of the ancient Ganson tavern. They had paid a part of the expense of the erection of the school house, but they soon wearied of it. The Round House, as it was known, erected in 1825, was intended by the Masons to be used as a temple The building was circular in shape, made of briek, and forty feet in diame- ter. The upper room, on the third floor, was designed to be used for the performance of the sacred ceremonies of the order. In front of the · building stood a square tower, also three stories in height, surmounted by a belfry nearly twenty-five feet high. The total height of the editice was about seventy feet. Hardly had the building been completed, however, when the ease of William Morgan began to excite the nation,

resulting in the collapse of the local branch of the Masonic order. Con- sequently the remarkable Round House was never used for the pur- poses for which it had been intended. For many years the lower room was used for the Sunday meetings of the Congregational society and for other public meetings and lectures. In 1928 the second story was con- verted into a school room and occupied by a private school until its demolition in 1859 and the erection of the Universalist church on its site.

THE PRESS OF GENESEE COUNTY .!
Though the number of newspapers published within the limits of Genesee county is now comparatively small, about thirty publications of this character have been issued in this county since its organization. The first of these was the Genesee Intelligencer, established at Batavia in the spring of lauf by Elias Williams, which was the first newspaper to be published at any point west of the Genesee river. Its career was brief, publication being suspended in October of the year in which it was founded.
The Cornucopia was first printed in Batavia in the spring of 1808 by Benjamin Blodgett and Samuel Peck. It was discontinued in 1811.
The Republican Advocate was established in Batavia in 1811 by Benjamin Blodgett and David C. Miller. It soon passed into the hands of Mr. Miller and was published by him until 1828. It was then suc- cessively in the hands of Charles Sentell, Charles W. Miller, Edwin Hough, Andrew W. Young, Lewis & Brown, C. C. Allen, Waite & Cooley and Daniel D. Waite. It 1854 it was merged in the Genesee County Whig and was issued by Kimberly & Goodrich as
The Republican Advocate and Genesee County Whig. In 1855 Mr. Goodrich withdrew, and the name was changed to
The Republican Advocate, which was continued by J. H. Kimberly until 1852, when the office passed into the hands of D. D. Waite, one of the former proprietors.

McWain purchased the Genesee Herald, then printed at Le Roy, moved the material to Batavia, and in January, 1852, continued its publication under the title of
Genesee County Herald and Spirit of the Times. From 1858 to 1860 a paper called the

The Spirit of the Times and the People's Press by Follett & Adams and others.
The Morgan Investigator was published at the office of the Republi- can Advocate in Batavia during the Morgan excitement of 1822, and continued about a year.

McWain purchased the paper and are still in control, issuing the paper every afternoon ex- cept Sunday. The Daily News is the only daily newspaper now pub. lished in Genesee county.
