This chair comes from Amazonia Lodge in northwest Missouri, near the Kansas Border. Amazonia 320 received its charter in 1890 and consolidated with Savannah 71 in 1907. Although the fact that James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok was a Mason is in doubt, local lore says he often attended meetings at Amazonia. The chair is on display at the Masonic Museum in Columbia, Missouri.
