The cornerstone of Masonic Lodge was removed from Old Four Seasons Building (Southern end of the Courier Herald, 2019) . It was found to be empty except for a dime and a penny. It is presumed that contractor E.J. Fuller removed the contents when the building was remodeled for the Four Seasons (ca. 1903). The Masonic corner stone was laid on May 14, 1891. Until then the area served as a baseball field.
There is still an urban legend that the Masons could enter the lodge through a series of underground tunnels which led to the basement of the lodge.
There was a livery at the corner of S. Jefferson and East Madison with cotton fields to the east. Dublin Courier Herald, August 12, 1915.
