This stone building, constructed in the 1840’s was owned and used by a number of families prominent in the early history of Metamora. These include Martindale, Watkins, Allison and Wiley. The ground floor was a general merchandising establishment, best known under the name of L. Allison and son, second story first housed the sons of Temperance, who held title as the Temperance Hall Association. The Metamora Lodge #158 F. &A.M. acquired the hall in 1888. This is believed to be the only lodge in Indiana with most of its original cobalt blue windows intact.
