Mansfield Lodge No. 138 of the International Order of Odd Fellows was instituted on August 29, 1871. The existing Lodge building was completed in the summer of 1892. 

The ground floor commercial space was occupied by J.H. Wright’s general merchandise store until the completion of The Big Daylight Store in 1901. Lodge No. 138 of the I.O.O.F. met in the upper hall  until the mid 1980s. 

This two-story building, the oldest documented structure on Main Street, is a major contributor to the potential Main Street historic district. It is a prime candidate for further restoration, as the imposing brick façade has been covered in stucco and the tall second story windows left in place. 

The building is a registered Mansfield Historic Landmark.
