The sign says:
"The Tackawanbait Lodge, named after Natick's only Native American ordained minister, who continued John Eliot's mission to the 'Praying Indians' was housed in the top floors of this building. It represents the Odd Fellows' history in Natick since originally instituted in 1845 and lasting through to modern times. The elegantly detailed brick and brownstone structure forms a significant landmark on the edge of our Town Common and contributes to Natick's 19th century character.
