We took pleasure some time since in

ers and the afflicted ones of Shreveport and
Memphis. The epidemic at the latter place
having abated, the return to their homes
was made the occasion of a generous fare

peal of the sixth:
The grandest sight seen for many long
weeks was the procession OF the Odd Eel
lows yesterday, accompanied by the
Knights of Pythias, down Main street from
their hail to the Mississippi and Tennessee
railroad depot, whittier they escorted their
nurses. en- route home. The procession was
headed by a detachment Of city police,
under Sergeant Brown. Next came the
Old Memphis brass band, whose sweet
strains thrilled all hearers, and reminded
them of the good old times before our be-
loved city knew what epidemics were-the
first band that has given US music Tor many
long weeks, and although they have suffered
the loss of many of their most promlnent
members, the music came forth as Tree anu
perfect from their instruments as IN days
of yore. The Knights of Pythias. in their
elegant uniforms, with martial tread
and proud array, followed. Their per-
formance was truly creditable, and the
order can congratulate themselves upon be-
ing considered by all observers mostex-
cellently drilled organization. Then fol
lowed the nurses in hacks, who left their
homes and came here to assist and care for
the sick of the Odd Fell0ws-representa
