GRAND REPRESENTATIVE.

The Grand Lodge Of Odd Fellows met
at H~attiesburg May 21st. 1t "a a very
important session because the fund
which the Order had collected for its
Widows and Orphans, amounted to
about $4,000, was said to be in jeop-
ardy. However, the treasurer OF that
fund, J. W. Stewart, of Moss Point, who
had some trouble with the Scranton

for every cent due the Odd Fellows.

ally in carrying ont their command to
visit the sick, bury the dead, help the
widow and educate the orphan" They
have ~orphanages everywhere. They
exist wherever the white man rules.
They provide cemeteries, not only for
the burial Of their dead, but for all who
need a last resting place. The ceme-
terry here at Greenwood is but an in
stance of what the Order is doing in
this respect.
The ladies of Greenwood take a lively
interest in the local cemetery and have
an organization to help keep it up.
