It was a sad occasion for Freemasonry in South Australia when, on 16th September 2015, United Service Lodge No 37 SA&NT Surrendered its Warrant.
Initially, the Lodge, consisting of Officers and ex-Officers of the Naval and Military Forces in South Australia, was consecrated on 14th April 1887, went into recess for 30 years from 1895 to 1925 and then was resuscitated on 5th March 1925.
