The 1872 Convention met in the Indiana Senate's chambers on the second floor of the old statehouse. This building was completed in 1835 and demolished in 1877.

Its replacement, the current statehouse, exists today on the same location. Construction began in 1878. The cornerstone was laid in 1880; the building was finally completed eight years later.

Bates House hotel hosted numerous Fiji gatherings. The 10th Convention lodged here in 1872. Meetings for that event occurred in the State Capitol building (see above).

The 1878 Convention met here, and determined to found The Phi Gamma Delta magazine. The chapters of Indiana held many annual State Days at Bates House; that tradition continues today. The entire fraternity returned in 1883 and 1890 for the 14th and 19th Conventions.

This fine hotel was built in 1852; Lincoln spoke from a balcony on the way to his inauguration in 1861. Bates House was demolished in 1901 to make way for the Claypool Hotel (see below).

Built on the site of the Bates House, the Claypool Hotel hosted the 64th Ekklesia in December, 1912. The attendance of 501 set a new record for Phi Gamma Delta conventions.

The Claypool Hotel was demolished in 1969. It is now the site of Claypool Court, a retail mall.

Incidentally, Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity was founded at the Claypool Hotel in 1908.

This plaque honors Frank E. Hering (Bucknell 1897), known as "The Father of Mother's Day." It was unveiled on May 10, 1931 at the English Opera House. It reads:

On this site, Sunday February 7, 1904, the first known public plea for a nation-wide observance of Mothers' Day was made by Frank E. Hering, teacher, orator, humanitarian, in commemoration of Mothers' Day and in honor of its beloved founder, the Fraternal Order of Eagles erects this tablet May 10, 1931.

The English Opera House was demolished to make room for the J. C. Penny Building. Later tenant Blue Cross-Blue Shield had the Fraternal Order of Eagles remove the monument. It now stands in the clubhouse of Indianapolis Aerie #211.

Hering was editor of Eagles magazine. Incidentally, he was Notre Dame's first full-time football coach in the late 1890s.
