The laying of the cornerstone of the Haskell took place in 1901. The ceremony was presided over by Masons from both Canada and the United States, including Col. Haskell himself. Martha Haskell may be seen in this photograph, seated at the centre. Col. Haskell (wearing a bowler hat) is standing directly behind her. (Photo - Haskell Archives)
