suffering humanity. They visited our city, as they descended the river, and offered ns assistance; we, however, did not need it, and they continued their journey. All along the river where assistance was needed they gave it. While lying in front of Viek-burg. Lient. Benner, the commander, and one of the engineers were attacked by the fever and died, thus adding two more names to the already long list of those who had given their lives in their efforts to save the lives of their fellow-men. Whether or not the names of H. H. Benner and the engineer be written on shafts of marble or storied urn, they will not be forgotten by the people of the South, or by the world.
Towards the close of September repeated and urgeut calls came to us for physi- cians, nurses, and medicine-, from the towns along the railroads, and who therefore bad until then ielt secure against a visitation of the iever. To many of these we promptly responded. While going to Brownsville, early in October, I made inquiries at the ser- eral depots at which we stopped, and learned that the fever had broken out in nearly all of them, and that persons were dying -- had died, and remained unburied -- to whom. in some instances, no assistance had been rendered. The physicians in these and other country towns, with a few exceptions, remained at their post of duty, and many of them died while attending to their duties. Then it was I saw the necessity of establishing relief trains, which might leave Memphis each morning with physicians, nurses, medi- eines, etc., which trains would stop at each depot long enough to enable the physicians to visit the afflicted and leave with them uurses and supplies. The following telegram to Mr. II. A. Montgomery, Superintendent of the Louisville and Memphis Railroad --
" People sick, suffering, and dying, at almost every depot between here and Mem- phis, for want of physicians and medicine. Can give them attention promptly. and probably save lives, if you can furnish our Association with locomotive and baggage- car, which, leaving Memphis in the morning with physicians, etc., shall stop --- ay one or two hours-on side track to attend to wants of sick at each depot, which we can not furnish without your assistance. The life of your agent at Withe and Mason might have been saved by attention. If necessary to pay, please state amount per day. Fever will continue to frost-say fifteen (15) days. We all appreciate your past generosity. Answer here. A. D. LANGSTAFF, Pres't Memphis Howard Association "-
niet with this prompt and favorable response :
"To A. D. LANGSTAFF, Pres't Howard Association, Brownsville, Tenn. :
" Yes, sir, we will furnish you an engine and coach and express-car at any time, and as often as desired, to bring out medical assistance and supplies, free of cost. Will you not please extend trips as far north as Paris and Erin?" Much suffering at these two points, and especially at Paris. We will gladly give you any assistance in our power. Please answer, and when you will want to leave Memphis on first trip. "JAMES MONTGOMERY."
In a few days the first train left Memphis. Similar trains were furnished with equal promptness by Sup't John A. Grant, of the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, and by Sup't Burke, of the Mississippi and Tennessee Railroad. In organizing and running these trains, which were of great benefit, I was very ably assisted by W. J. Smith, Ist Vice- President ; J. H. Edmondson, 2d Vice-President ; P. W. Semmes, William Finnie, and others : and to the physicians accompanying the trains, to the officers and employés of the railroads throughout the whole land, to the steamboat, express, and telegraph companies, and to their employés particularly ; and last, but not by any means least, to the press of our city, and to the press everywhere, are we under the most weighty obligations. I would respectfully suggest that a committee be appointed for the purpose of expressing by resolutions the gratitude of the Association to all ontside of its ranks who, by deed, word, or work, aided or assisted us in the performance of our sacred mission. For par- tienlars as to receipts and expenditures I'refer you to the reports of the Secretary and Treasurer, and for particulars in regard to the nurse department I refer you to the super- intendent of that department, which reports are herewith submitted.
In conclusion, brothers, I desire to sincerely thank you for your cheerful readiness in assisting me throughout the recent epidemic. I will always remember how devoted you have been to your principles as Howards, how kind and generous you have been to me. Very respectfully,
A. D. LANGSTAFF, President, Memphis Howard Association.

SECRETARY'S REPORT FOR 1878.
To the President, Directors, and Members of the Howard Association of Memphis, Tenn. :
BRETHREN .- I submit for your consideration the following as my report of the late epidemie, together with such collateral observations as seemed pertinent under the cir- enmstances: and for whatever deficiencies may appear therein, either in manner or mat- ter, I appeal to the same kind indulgence that has characterized your action toward me heretofore, asking you to remember the present pressure of my other and unavoidable obligations.
It is a melancholy duty to review the work and events of the last few months, and to contemplate the scenes and trials through which we were called to pass. The preva- Ience of the late pestilence constitutes the most mourning and thrilling period of our city's history-a period so tragie and awful that its memory now seems like a strange troubled dream. None, save those who witnessed it, can.for a moment realize the dread- ful power and fatal swiftness of the plague of leis. It was the herald of danger, the carnival of suffering, and the triumph of death. No language however graphic and no imagination however fertile can give any adequate description of the terror of its pre- ence, the cruelty of its destruction. Its appearance spread consternation, like a tempest. and its touch difined suffering, like a deadly poison. The young and the old, the weak and the strong, the evil and the good, the beautiful and the brave, all alike went down beneath the fatal breath of the unseen destrover. It seemed as if the very genius of des- olation was in our midst, and with no formidable power to stay his mighty havoc. But relying upon the snecor and pity of divine Providence, and armed with the assistance ren- dered na by the generon- people of our entire country, we made ( with all humility : the best and bravest night we could. "And now that the battle is over and our dead buried, thanks be to God that it is over, and for our preservation amid the perils of the conflict. And though we emerge from the struggle weary with toil, torn with trials and sore with sor- row. we can but rejoice in the freedom from pestilence, in the blessing of health. in the comfort of hope. in the association of friends returned, and in the pleasing conscions- ness of duty done.
The first call upon our Association came by telegraph, August 11th, 1878, from the mavor of Grenada, Miss .. appealing for immediate help. On receipt of this information I at once sought our Ist Vice-President, Gen. W. J. Smith tour President then being ab- sent from the city,, and he and I, with the assistance of our late beloved brethren, But- ler P. Anderson and Elwin B. Foster, in a few hours collected seven of our nurses of 1873, and had every thing in readiness for immediate departure, when, thanks to the kindness of Col. Burke, Sup't of the M. & T. R. R., a train was soon speeding its way to that stricken city with nurses and general supplies. Gen. Smith and Maj. Anderson volunteered to go to the relief of that people, now already panic-stricken and flying for safety.
On the following day numerous telegrams were received from that place, telling us of the malignaney of the fever and the needs of the stricken. Additional nurses and supplies were daily forwarded as their wants required. Our Association had in the meantime convened, and commenced preparing to meet the terrible ordeal which all felt assured we would soon be called to encounter at home. As rapidly as possible every thing was put in readiness for the expected issue. Locations for hospital- were selected ; a nurse department was organized, and the Hon. John Johnson, an honorary member of 1573, was elected an active member, and made superintendent of this department, which. under his able and efficient management, was soon in an active and good working condi- tion. And for full information in this department, reference is made to the report of its superintendent, herewith filed.
Our Board of Health established a rigid quarantine against New Orleans and Grenada; but it was -tealthily evaded, and parties from the infected localities made their way into the city. and it was soon announced that yellow fever was in our midst. This announcement spread terror throughout the community. Fear and despair wore written in the face of men. The people became panic-stricken, and rushed, by thousands,

to the various railway depots to escape the dread destroyer. Here the wildest and most unreasonable excitement prevailed- women wept and begged, and men cursed and fought, in their efforts to be first. Every inch of available room in the cars would be occupied, and, as the train moved out, ordinary dangers seemed to have no terror: and men would leap upon the platform, or cling. - winging, to whatever offered a hand-hold. In this, the hour of their dread. many abandoned their homes without preparation, some their baggage, and others forgot that they had any at all. Friend forgot friend, and kindred forgot kindred, in their wild struggle for self-preservation. The scenes at these depot-, for some days, dety description: while people on foot and in every character of vehicle could be san dying to the country in all directions. May a recurrence of such a calamity, of such heart-rending scenes, never again be witnessed here! It is estimated that more than thirty-five thousand of our people fled, -eeking safety in all parts of the country.
.
The entire force of our Association was at once called into active duty, and all who remained to share your fate, will bear testimony to the faithful manner in which you thought, felt, and labored for others both by day and night, in storm and sunshine, and without complaint. The membership of our Association being so inadequate to the demands of the sick, a call was made for volunteers, and was promptly responded to by the following noble-hearted men: Nathan D. Menken, W. D. McCallum, A. F. C. Cook. D. G. Reahart, C. L. Stoffer, Jno. T. Muss, Fred. Cole, Samuel M. Jobe. Lewis $ Frier- son. J. W. Heath, J. W. Page. Chas. Howard, W. S. Ander-on, Jacob Kohlberg. Wmn. Finnie, and R. P. Waring. Jr., who were elected active members, and at once a-signed to duty. The Rev. Dr. W. E. Boggs. S. Landrum, and E. C. Slater, also Phil. R. Athey, were elected honorary members, and did most noble and efficient work until themselves Were stricken down. Out of a maximum membership of thirty-two, during the conta- gion, twenty-six were stricken down, and of that number ten of our best and bravest died. The heart grows sad and the eve dim as we contemplate the deeds and fate of these noble heros. They did their duty and they did it well. They perished in the great cause of humanity, going down in a voluntary struggle with death while fighting him at the bed-side of others. "Greater love than this kath no man, that he lay down his life for another." . But a full history of their brave deeds and noble self-sacrifice I leave to abler and worthier hand- than mine. Peace to their shades, honor to their memories !

APPENDIX.
Honorary Members:
Rev. W. E. Boggs, D. D., taken Sept. 26th, recovered. Rev. S. Landrum, D. D., taken Sept. 15th, recovered.
Rev. M. C. Slater. D. D., died Sept. 10th, at Memphis.
Chief of Police P. R. Athey, taken Aug. 31st, recovered.
From the foregoing statement you will see that near one third of our entire number died at their posts. The language of eulogy can not exaggerate the calm courage, splendid energy, and noble service of these brave men in behalf of this afflicted people. The Rev. Dr. Slater was added to the list of martyrs, and now sleeps with his fathers, while his memory grows brighter and more beautiful with the praise and blessings of those he loved, and those who loved him.
A medical department was organized by our Association carly in the epidemic, and Dr. R. W. Mitchell, with whose conspicuous service the whole country is already familiar, was elected medical director. And for a full report of the services of the gallant, untiring, and self-sacrificing men composing this department, reference is made to the report of Dr. Mitchell, herewith filed. On behalf of our Association, I would here return our heartfelt thanks to the medical department for countless courtesies shown, and for their prompt compliance with every call, by day or night, made upon it by us in behalf of the sick and distressed. And I can not forget, here, to offer my personal and profoundest thanks to that learned and accomplished gentleman. Dr. J. T. MeFar- land, of Savannah, Georgia, to whose skill and attention I feel that I chiefly owe my own recovery from an attack of the fever.
Supply stores were established as promptly as practicable in different parts of the city, as the wants of the people demanded, and at which every thing necessary for either the sick or destitute was furnished upon proper requisitions of the members or physi. cians. The great benefit, indeed the indispensability of these, was soon apparent, for in a few days almost every business establishment in the city was closed, and the people; consequently, were left dependent, in a great degree, on the Howard stores for necessary supplies of all kinds. I regret that I am unable to give a full and perfectly accurate report of all the supplies sent us by kind and sympathizing friends from all parts of the country. Owing to the fact that the force in my office was so reduced by the fever, it was impossible to keep closely up with the receipts. At one time, out of a force of seven, I had but two left on duty. I endeavored earnestly to keep a true and correct record of every donation received. Yet 1 fear, owing to the sickness of myself and assistants, and to the immense amount of work daily to be done, some errors or omis. sions may appear in the account; and should our friends discover any, we will thank them to point them out and we will take pleasure in making the correction. I would gladly give the name of each donor, and article of supplies, but it would encumber the report of donations to an indefinite length, as they are numbered by hundreds. I think that special mention is due to S. Lester Taylor, Esq .. Treasurer of Cincinnati Southern Relief Committee, and J. H. Lindenberger, Chairman of Louisville Clearing House Committee, for their prompt kindness in filling all requisitions drawn upon them, and often even anticipating our wants. I herewith hand you report of donations of money received, to which I refer you for full particulars. I also present herewith my report of expenditures, showing amount paid for nurses, physicians, supplies, etc., to which your attention is especially invited.
I have also prepared, with much labor, a complete list of the names, as far as could be ascertained, of all our citizens who died during the late epidemic.
And now, before closing, I desire to return thanks to the officers of the Southern Express Company, to the officers of the Western Union Telegraph Company, to the officers of the Memphis and Louisville, the Memphis and Charleston, and Mississippi and Tennessee Railroads, for many and great favors shown us, and especially to Col. M. Burke of the latter road.
And to you, brethren, I make my acknowledgments for many aets of courtesy and kindness to me while in the discharge of the duties of my office, and especially to Gen. W. J. Smith, Ist Vice-Pres., who took charge of my office during my sickness. I would also return my special thanks to Mesers. J. R. Ray, Thos. F. Sneed, C. II. Haight, J. R. Miller, W. S. McCloy, Ira Trout, D. W. Coan (clerks), for the faithful manner in which they conducted themselves through the ordeal that "tried men's souls." May a happy life and fair fortunes be theirs.
And now, to the generous people (God bless them!) of this entire country, and to the good and charitable of the Old World, who did not forget us, for their timely succor in the dark hour of our affliction, we tender, in the spirit of sacred sincerity and broth- erly love, our unspeakable thanks and everlasting gratitude.
Yours truly, J. II. SMITH, Secretary.
