History of the Naval Lodge, No. 4, F.A.A.M.
Marmaduke Dove, who had previously occupied the East in Union Lodge, No. 6, and later affiliated with Naval Lodge, was installed Worshipful Master in 1819, the first chosen for the full present term of twelve months. "Captain" Dove, as he was universally known, was a warrant officer in the Navy, and for many years held a responsible position in the Navy Yard in Washington. He is described as having been a man of unusually commanding presence and genial magnetic personality. His zeal, fidelity and attachment to Masonry is evidenced by the fact that besides serving the Lodge as its principal officer during the years 1819-21, 1824-25, 1830-34, 1836-37 and 1841 he also held the positions of Junior Grand Warden in 1831; Senior Grand Warden, 1820, 1832, and 1834; Deputy Grand Master, 1821, 1836, 1838, and 1843, and Grand Master in 1839.
