Ketchikan Cornerstone - Laid by President Harding

The Cornerstone was laid by President Harding as on of his last official acts.  He passed away shortly after his trip to Alaska in July of 1923.  The photos are courtesy of Ketchikan Lodge No. 19 (Formerly 159).  The photo restoration work was accomplished by Brother Dave Hayden (Hayfield Photography).  A copy of this Photo will be hanging in the Washington Masonic L&M in University Park.  Many thanks to the great Brothers in the Grand Lodge of Alaska for their assistance in preserving this piece of history.
