HOMES REFLECT GROWTH
The first meetings of the Scotlish Rite
bodies were held In a hall, located en thu
southeast corner of Front and Burnsida
streets, but, with the growth of Masonry
in Portland, larger quarjers were re
quired and it was decided to erect a new
temple.'. The selection of a site received
careful consideration and was the sub
ject of some debate.
The first. Masonic lodfre was held In
a log cabin on the corner of Alder and
Third streets, and It was therefore pro
posed that this site be selected for the
new temple. Many of the craft demurred
on account of its Isolation and urged that
a site closer to the business center of the '
city be selected. It was argued , that a
site on Front or First streets would cost
from 820,000 to 130,000 and as the Third
and Alder street property could be pur
chased for $5000, it was selected In spite
of the fact that it adjoined the residence
section of the city. Accordingly a new
temple was built on this site and wa
dedicated I in June. 1878. The Scottish
Rite bodies shared the top floor witn
Oregon commandery No. 1.'
ISTO MARQUAM BUII.DIX'G
By-1898 the Masonic bodies had out
grown aheir quarters in the temple at -Third
and Alder streets, and the Scottish
Rite bodies rented the top floor of the
Marquam building. Special scenery and
paraphernalia were . purchased. . The
rooms were hung In royal purple and the
Quarters were- elaborately furnished.
In 1903 degrees were conferred in. the
Scottish Rite cathedral at Morrison and
Lownsdale streets, which now will give
way to the Imposing new cathedral on
Ford street, just south of Washington.
MALCOLM'S SPLEKDID HECOlt
Long before his appointment as"Nn
speotor general, Scottish . Rite Masonry
had been greatly stimulated by Mal
colm. His devotion by the rite had twice
been recognized by the supreme council.
In' 1890 he was elected thirty-third de
gree honorary, and In - 1895 ' was voted
the 'cross of honor , for extraordinary
service. i . . j
The following extract from the official
records in the -archives of the lode.
written shortly after his appointment,
will indicate the ardent and faithful
character of bis service: j .
When Brother Malcolm arrived In Ore
gon, the Scottish Rite bodies conNlating
of lodge, chapter and . council, had a
very small membership, no parapher-
nalia. and as the officers i seldom con
ferred a degree, they had not committed
the work to memory. He was Induced
to take the office of wise master of
Alnsworth chapter of Hose Croix, and in
two years had a well drilled corps of
officers end $600 In the treasury ; dur
ing.his absence in Kngland tills was dis
sipated and work had azatn practically
ceased In the bodies. Sol dlneouraged
were the members that when he returned
in 1886, a meeting was called for the
, purpose of surrendering the charters.
The lAte George E. Withinpton. thirty
third degree honorary, and an en
thusiastic Scottish Rite Mnson, protwise l
that Instead of doing so. they apt'lv for
a consistory charter, ana
Malcolm i be elected head
that Brother
of the four
bodies with power to select his own of
ficers. This course was pursued and In
comparatively short time th old hall
was refitted, officers drilled and the
bodies actively at work.
Under his guidance, the
Scottish Rite
Influence and
has grown In members and
has prospered financially.
Its roster car-
ries approximately 3500 members and its
assets are in excels of half a million
dollars. It la fitting that the erection
of the new Scottish Kite cathedral, which
is to be the finest structure of Its kin-l
In the, world, should be during the ad
ministration and under tbe active su
pervision of such an honored and devoted
member of the fraternity, i
