The first grang es in the county were organized about the year 1872. The Cove organization held their meetings In the old Morri son church. The first master was the Hon. M. B. Reese. Among the mem bers were1 John Quincy Richardson, Boswells, Kennedys, Cochrans, Mrs. Hendershott and T. T. Geer. The first master of the La Grande grange wb M. Baker. This grange movement lasted about ten years and this hall was built during that period and It stands as a monument to the first grange activities of Union county. In later years this grange was revived and the other granges of the county were organized by officials from, this grange. So we consider this the par ent grange of the county. When the county grangers gather At this celebrated hall From the valley and tbe mountain glen , We feel just like the prodigal Who wandered far away ',. Returns to see the old folks once again." The program was unusually inter esting. ; Dr. Gillilan was present and spoke on "the chautauqua and in be half of the management asked that, a grange day be held during the coming session.
