The Hardy-Howle Mason Lodge no: 459 was organized in 1860 with about 75 members 
in Delta, Alabama. All that remains today is the doorsteps. The building was 
removed years ago.

From the Lineville Headlight: 
Rock Mills, Ala., Jan. 23rd, 1913
The Masonic Conference just closed at. Rock Mills was one of the best ever held 
in this district; much good was accomplished for the fraternity and alt members 
went away feeling glad they had spent these few days with the clever people at 
Rock Mills. The Conference was attended by the usual, number of masons, 
representing the various lodges in the conference. Rev. T. O. Jones, District 
Lecturer, for 11th District, under whose care the conference was happily 
pleased, did all he could to make it a good as well as profitable meeting. The 
following officers were elected: 
W. C. Lane, W. M.
George Gregg, S. W.
W. C. S. Robertson, J. W. 
Nixon Lucas, Secty. and Treas.
Dr. C. B. Welch, S D.
A. J. Pike, J. D
J. L. Gregg, S. S.
J. P. Radney, J. S.
Rev. C. B. Cole, Chaplain.
Tyler of Hardy-Howle Lodge. Tyler for next conference. F. M. Handley, S. D. 
Lewis and W. Holdridge were appointed Finance Committee J. L. Gregg, A. R. 
Stephens, and C. C. Harrington were appointed Committee on Resolutions. The next 
conference goes to Hardy-Howle Lodge, of Delta, in Clay County. Among the many 
things done was the following resolution of thanks to the Editors, which I think 
was very appropriate, and the Conference would like to have said more: To the W. 
M. Wardens. and Brethren of Randolph and Clay County Masonic Conference: Be it 
resolved that the conference tender its many thanks to the newspaper Editors of 
Randolph and Clay counties for their valuable assistance in making known the 
meeting of cur conference and other assistance rendered us. 
Fraternally submitted, J. L. Gregg, S. D. Lewis, Committee.
