Description: McKinley Made A Mason, Winchester, Va. The front reads; On the upper floor of the center building shown above, Major William McKinley, afterward President of the United States, was initiated into the Masonic Order, may 1-3, 1865. Though the local Masons were confederates many Federals in Sheridan's army, who were quartered in Winchester during the winter of 1864-65, were initiated by Hiram Lodge, which was organized in 1768. These Union initiates paid $4,400 in fees, and with this nucleus, the Winchester Masonic Temple was built. The white star shown on picture is directly above a tablet marking the building. The back reads; Always Ask For Triangle Kards Historically Korrect & Authentik Published By Shenandoah Publishing House-Strasburg, Virginia.
