Oddfellows Friendly Society Lodge Certificate

The Loyal Brownie of Bladnoch Lodge, No 5934 was based at Kirkcowan, Wigtownshire and was opened in 1872.   This Lodge certificate holds the framed certificate of dispensation from the Independent Order of Oddfellows Manchester Unity and on the opposing side is a hand painted list of Past Grands belonging to the Loyal Brownie of Bladnoch Lodge.   The certificate was rescued by the donor from a house clearance at Chaucer's House, Woodstock, where the artist Sir William Nicholson lived and worked from 1898 to 1904.
