Ohio Lodge #199 is located in the village of Bladensburg in the southeastern part of Knox County in the Indian country of Wakatomica. The surrounding country, with its green pastures, wooded hillsides and its never-failing springs of crystal water, presents a pastoral scene of the most and surprising beauty. The climate is healthful and delightful and the air is both invigorating and inspiring. It is located in the valley on the banks of the Wakatomica below the confluence of Harrod's Run with that stream. It is accessible from all parts of the State Highway No. 541, four miles East of Martinsburg where No. 541 joins U.S. Highway No. U.S. Highway No. 62.
It is a quiet and peace-loving community, composed of a prosperous, thriving and hospitable people.
We extend a most cordial invitation to all Brother Master Masons to visit our Lodge and partake of our fellowship. We assure you a most hearty welcome and a standing invitation to return.
Come when you're looked for, or come without warning:
A thousand welcomes you'll find here before you,
And the oftener you come here the more we'll adore you.
