The information contained in this District Directory is Private and for Masonic use only District 4 History
The first record of Masons in the Northern Virginia area can be found in William Mosley Brown’s history of Fredericksburg Lodge No. 4 of Fredericksburg, Virginia, which records two members of that Lodge as living in Prince William County on the north side of the Rappahannock River near the mountains in 1769. The first Masonic Lodge in Prince William County was chartered as Dumfries Lodge No. 50 in Dumfries, VA in 1797. The Lodge at Dumfries is important to Hay Market and the 58th Masonic District as most of the Masons who were instrumental in constituting the first Lodge in our area were members of that Lodge. In his report to the Grand Lodge of 1925, Most Worshipful Charles H. Callahan noted that the 15 Lodges of the 1st and 54th Masonic Districts were too spread out for efficient administration. He recommended that they be realigned in three Districts. With the approval of the Grand Lodge, the 59th Masonic District was established with Rt. Wor. G. Walker Merchant of Manasseh as the first District Deputy Grand Master. The Lodges in the District were: Manasseh Lodge #182 (1875), Acacia Lodge #16 (1877), Herndon Lodge #264 (1897) and Drinkard Lodge #313 (1911). Herndon Lodge was in the 54th Masonic District while the other three Lodges were all originally part of the 1st Masonic District. The Grand Lodge of 1934 reorganized the District structure, eliminating the former 58th District, and renumbering the 59th as the 58th District. The Grand Lodge of 1936 transferred Henry Lodge No.57 (1869) from the 54th to the 58th Masonic District. In 1962, Drinkard Lodge voted to change its name to Hay Market Lodge #313. A bit of Masonic trivia: Hay Market Lodge took its name from the spelling of the Town name at that time, while the Town later changed its named to one word: “Haymarket.” In 1995, District 58 was again restructured into District 4 composed of the following six Lodges – Acacia #16, Henry #57, Mt Carmel #133, Manasseh #182, Herndon #264 and Hay Market #313. In 2010, The Patriot Lodge was placed Under Dispensation in District 4 and re- ceived its Charter on November 11, 2011. The Patriot Lodge is the first academic Lodge in Virginia, and the first degree-granting Lodge chartered in over 30 years. In 2019 the Grand Lodge reorganized Districts and Cochran Lodge No. 271 joined the 4th Masonic District and Herndon Lodge No. 264 moved to District 2. Grand Lodge of Virginia

No one can truly be a Master Mason until he has mastered the teachings and principles of the Master Mason’s Degree, and these can best be ap- preciated by a thorough knowledge of the Master Mason’s Catechism.
The Institution of Freemasonry has many usages and customs with which you will become acquainted in your attendance upon Lodges and in your conversation with well-informed Brethren. There are a few I would like to emphasize at this time.
In Lodge you are to conduct yourself with decorum. You are not to move about the Lodge Room, engage in private conversations or otherwise dis- turb or interfere with the dignity and solemnity of the Lodge proceedings.
When you enter an open Lodge, you approach the altar, wait until the door is closed, come under the D.G of the Degree in which the Lodge is open and hold it until you are recognized by the W.M and invited to be seated.
As a member of ______Lodge No. _____ you are entitled to ballot in this and only this Lodge. The ballot box contains white balls and black cubes. You will be called upon to cast your ballot to help decide the future membership of your Lodge, and in so doing you should let no personal feel- ing sway your judgment. If you believe a person will be a credit to our order, cast your ballot – a white ball in favor. If you know of any reason why the petitioner would not be a credit to our fraternity, if he is not morally fit, it is equally your duty to cast a black cube – only one being necessary to keep an unworthy person out of our ranks and help preserve, unsullied, the repu- tation of our fraternity.
The ballot is secret and sacred, and you will never be called upon to divulge how your ballot was cast. It is a breach of Masonic law for anyone to en- quire how another has, or will cast his ballot on a petition.
You should also learn that matters brought up in a Masonic Lodge are nev- er discussed with anyone who is not a member of the Fraternity.
To insure the three Great Lights in Masonry are in full view of the W.M. of a Lodge at all times (which silently admonishes him of his duties) you should never cross between the altar and the East while the Lodge is in session.
Your progress from now onward will depend entirely on your own efforts. May I express the hope that you will become a real student of Masonry for I can assure you that if you will travel in foreign countries of Masonic History, Masonic Symbolism, Masonic Jurisprudence and Masonic Philosophy, you will earn and receive Master’s wages far beyond your best expectation.
