The members are each required to visit each of their sick patients at least once every day, to see that nurses are doing their duty, and that the needs of the sufferers are supplied; and as t lie mem hers frequently have seventy-five and more patients to visit daily, and as these patients are located at different places, in areas from one-half to one mile square, it can be easily understood how the time of the member, from early inorning to near midnight, and sometimes even later, is quite fully occupied. Membership in the Howard Association is acquired by each, only upon his voluntary application therefor, which must be endorsed by two or more members. The duties, therefore, are entirely self-imposed, but become obligatory when once assumed. Any wilful failure to discharge them being made punishable by expulsion from membership. Any improper conduct, either at meeting, on duty, or in any relation in life, carries with it the same penalty. PREFACE. 7 No officer or member is allowed any compensation what- ever for his service; and to guard as far as possible against any compensation, even by indirection, the by-laws forbid any member '• to suppiy or fill any order drawn by himself for account of the Association, from his own business establishment, for groceries, provisions or medicines, or any other articles required to be given in the relief of the sick and poor."

TO THE PUBLIC. Howard Association, No. 58 Camp Street, New Orleans, August 16, 1878. In view of the presence of serious sickness and wide- spread distress in our city, the Howard Association have determined to extend such measure of relief to the destitute sick as may be placed in their hands by the generosity of their fellow-citizens in the city and through- out the country. The work of the Howard Association is conhned to the destitute sick—those who are sick without means and without friends. To such, and to none others, is their relief applied. Any such are requested to make their applications at the rooms of the Association, No. 58 Camp street, back office, second floor. Such appli- cations will be attended to personally by the members of the Association. By order of the Association. J. M. VANDEGRIFF, President. F. R. Southmayd, Secretary. TO OUB FELLOW-CITIZENS. The widespread sickness and distress therefrom which prevails in our city, have determined the Howard Asso- ciation to do all that is placed within their power, through your generosity, in relief of the same. We are (as in 1867) without one dollar in the treasury. We promise to expend judiciously, among the destitute sick, that which you intrust to us of your bounty. Con- tributions may be sent to S. B. Newman, Treasurer pro tern., No. 171 Gravier street; Fred. N. Ogden, Vice President, No. 18 Union street; or to the office of the Association, No. 58 Camp street, second floor.

RESOLUTION OF THANKS ADOPTED BY THE HOWAKD ASSOCIATION Rooms of the Howard Associ vtion ) No. 58 Camp street, New Orleans, November 25, 1878. ) Rexolved, That the generosity exhibited towards the stricken cities of the South during the late epidemic has no parallel in OF THE EPIDEMIC OF 1878. 13 the history of public charity. Free, spontaneous, unstinted, the benevolence of our fellow-countrymen and that of foreign coun- tries overflowed the measure of our direst calamity. To peoples utterly impoverished, cut off by plague from every resource of self-help, it brought solace and succor; it fed the starving, it clothed the naked, ministered to the sick, and robbed death of its bitterest terrors in its provision for the desolate survivors. The graves of our fallen are sanctified by the tenderest memo- ries of human kindness and sympathy, and our darkened homes are brightened by recollections of a love so free, cordial and lavish as to be almost divine. So long as the memory of our anguish survives, undying grati- tude to those who alleviated it will fill our hearts. And we recognize, above all, in the spirit which prompted and the self- sacrifice which sustained the steady current of beneficence that saved us in an hour of darkest need, a brotherhood wider than birthplace and a patriotic sympathy as ample as the bounds of our common country. Resolved, That the thanks of the Howard Association are grate- fully rendered to the physicians of this city who, volunteering their services, have so nobly, so faithfully and so efficiently served the patients of this Association. To the Southern Express Company, Thos. M. Wescoat, agent, for their indispensable and invaluable services in carrying to and fro for us over their routes without charge any and everything for the Howard Association and those whom we assisted. To the Western Union Telegraph Company for the free trans- mission of all messages to and from our Association, and to the Ocean and Balize Telegraph Companies for like kind service. To the Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans Railroad Company, the New Orleans and Mobile Railroad Company, Morgan's Louisiana and Texas Railroad, through C. A. Whitney & Co., for their free and generous transportation to and fro over 14 REPORT OF THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION their routes, of doctors, nurses, supplies, etc., for the sick at stricken points. To the Cromwell Line of steamers, for free and kindly service in transporting goods to us, and in sending, free of charge, on their way home, patients of our Association. To the captains of the Vieksburg, bend and upper and lower coast packet companies, for their kindly tender of service in transporting nurses, supplies, etc., for the sick along their routes. To the president of the Red River Transportation Company, for generous service in sending home to North Louisiana and Texas some who had served our Association. To the captain and owners of the steamer Blanche Porter, for the free tender of their steamer to carry nurses, doctors and sup- plies to Greenville, Miss., when cut off from all other means of communication. To the City Railroad Company, the Claiborne and the Dumaine Street Railroad Companies, for the free passage over their roads of the members of this Association and their assistants. To the city press, for their kind attentions. To Capt. John A. Stevenson, for the free use of our business office during the epidemic. To the American District Telegraph Company, for the free service of messengers. To Mr. J. E. McDaniel, agent of the Associated Press, for re- peated favors. And to all who, here and elsewhere, have, by personal service or otherwise, aided us in the discharge of the sacred duties im- posed upon us, we tender our heartfelt appreciation and thanks. By order of the Association. J. M. VANDEGRIFF, President. F. R. Southmayd, Secretary. OF THE EPIDEMIC OF 1878. 15 REPORT OF HOWARD ASSOCIATION FOR 1878. New Orleans, December 17,1878. Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Howard Association: Brethren—In accordance with your resolution to present for publication the report of your work in the epidemic of 1878, I would now lay before you the following: When, upon the 15th day of August last, we were informed, unofficially, by the worthy President of our Board of Health, (Dr. Samuel Choppin) that the hope to which we had so closely clung (that our city would be spared an epidemic of yellow fever) was gone, and that an epidemic was then, and had for some days been upon us; you were called together on the 16th day of August, to add to your membership a sunicient number of good and true men, to make our Association efficient to deal with the labor we were about to assume. At the meeting held that day, you were advised of the work in which I had already, in behalf of our Association, engaged at Port Eads (in aid of the Jetty Company) and at Grenada, at both which points an epidemic had for some days been prevalent. At the same time you elected into the membership of our Association Mr. Philip Buchanan, Hon. Jules Aldige, Col. J. B. Vinet, Mr. Felix Legendre, Mr. L. W. Baquie, Col. C. H. Allen, Mr. Henry Ginder, Mr. Lionel C. , Levy, and Mr. Archibald Mitchell, all of whom, saving the last named two, accepted their election and served actively during the entire epidemic. Having thus rendered the Howard Associ - ation efficient for its work, you passed the resolution announcing to our fellow citizens that we would receive applications for relief from the destitute sick; which was published in all our morning papers of the following morning (August 17th), together with a call for relief (upon our own people) to enable us to give 10 REPORT OF THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION the relief needed by applicants. Still clinging to a hope that the epidemic would be mild and of but short duration, we did not extend our call beyond our own community, and sent no appeal to those generous cities and communities who had in former times of trial to our people so nobly come forward for our help. But with what a magnificent response, was that simple announcement and call met. Over the wires the lightning carried the cry, North, East, West, South; the ear of humanity heard it the world over, and from its warm and sympathizing heart, there came back in response that overflowing, sublime munificence, which has no parallel in the history of public charities, and in the presence and recollection of which, thought is alike weak, as language is lame. On August 17th our Association opened its doors for relief to the destitute sick, without a dollar in its treasury; the small balance which we had on hand remaining from 1867, (about three hundred dollars,) being locked up in the bank in which it had been deposited, by the suspension thereof. Simultaneous with your published announcement that we would receive applications for relief, came the generous and unselfish tenders of service made by our noble and faithful physicians, who, commencing with us, continued to the close of the epidemic their self-sacrificing labors in behalf of our patients. And at once the invaluable aid and assistance of the Southern Express Company, the Western Union Telegraph, and other tel- egraph companies, the Chicago, St. Louis & N. O., the Mobile & N. O. and Morgan's La. & Texas R. R. Co.'s were all placed at our free disposal; and the Howard Association, strong in its membership, in its co-helpers, and in its faith and hope, com- menced its labor in the epidemic of 1878. For a short time appli- cations were limited to the office of the association on ('amp street, as the disease was limited to but one district, and the hope Btill remained that it might not spread throughout the whole city and our usual subdivision thereof into fever districts was not OF THE EPIDEMIC OF 1878. 17 made. But a very few days sufficed to dispel this our last hope, , and the applications coming in to us from every section of our city, caused an early assignment to duty, each in his individual district of every member of our body. Throughout the city, from the upper line of the Sixth District, to the TJ. S. Barracks, at different and convenient points in the twenty member's districts into which our city was divided, some forty slates were placed, which as to their locality were advertised in all the morning papers of our city, English French and German and remained so advertised for the benefit of the sufferers from the fever, until the closing of our doors after the epidemic ended. We were also at the start upon our work favored, not alone with the invaluable aid of our physicians and those corporations which have already been mentioned, but numerous tenders of personal service to aid us in the work in which we were engaged, came in from different sources. Not to name them all, but to recall some you will remember with both pleasure and a fond regret, the lamented Capt. Guibet, of the Louisiana Field Artillery, who tendered the voluntary services of his command; the members of which (some of them) became the constant assis- tants of members of our Association, serving with them in their districts throughout the pestilence; Messrs. Jno. N. Payne, Chas. E. Leverich and C. E. Whitney, who were a little later elected into your body as active members thereof; Mr. Wm. H. Beanham (subsequently elected an honorary member), Capt. McGlensey, of the TJ. S. Steamer Canonicus, Col. Wright Schaumberg, Capt. Richard H. Hooper, who took charge of the Fifth District (Algiers) and Hy. Williams, Chairman, Dr. Campbell, F. Hathorn, and others, the committee who took charge of the work in the Seventh District (Carrollton) and others; one and all serving with us, gave us, with our physicians, an active force of at least one hundred and twenty-five men, devoting their time and atten- tion in aid of the sick and suffering from the plague \*hich raged. And this large force was none too large for the work which 3 18 REPORT OF THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION devolved upon us. According to the reports of members from their separate districts, and from the relief committees estab- lished in the Ffth and Seventh Districts, the number of sick who have come under the care of our Association foots up for the entire City of New Orleans.......................................21,214 The nativities of these are : United States...........6218 West Indies*........... 10 England.................. 302 Belgium................. 7 France.................... 965 Portugal.................. 6 Germany.................1521 China.................... 6 Ireland...................2079 Brazil.................... 5 Italy...................... 529 Africa..................... 3 Scotland......... ........ 113 Russia..................... 2 Spain.................... 100 Norway.................. 2 Poland.................. 23 At Sea..................... 1 Greece.................... 21 Iceland.................... 1 Denmark................. 19 Honduras................ 1 Canada.................... 16 Andorra.................. 1 Austria .................. 15 Senegal.................... 1 Switzerland............. 15 Natives ..................8146 Mexico................... 14 Unknown ...............1032 Sweden .................. 10 ----21,244 And as to races are : Blacks............................................................... 5,132 ..^ Whites.............................................................16,112 J -----21,24A This enumeration represents the names of cases reported by members. Some members have, however, reported only the first cases occurring in many families, where 3, 4, or more members were sick. Had each case been reported, the number would have been fully 24,000. These cases occurring between August 17th and October 26th (a period of 71 days ), our desire being to give in each case the speediest possible relief, and our regulations requiring a daily and personal supervision in each, gave fullest occupation of their time not only to the members of our Association, but to our physicians and aids. From those points in the country which called on us for help and to which we sent doctors, nurses' supplies and money, I have as yet received no full report, saving three or four smaller places. I am OF THE EPIDEMIC OF 1878. 19 consequently unable to give the exact number of those out of the city who were sick and under our care. From partial reports received from many of them I can, however, give an approxima- tion of those who can properly be considered as beneficiaries of the aid and help granted from out the fund so generously sent us. In this estimate many smaller points are omitted, no reports ever having been received from -them; and in those named I have placed the number of sick some twenty per cent, under the number which had in their partial reports been sent us, saving Gretna and Clinton, from both which I received full and accurate reports from our physicians.

This is undoubtedly so in some of the Louisiana parishes. But the sick were not alone the charge laid upon our care. The wants of their families claimed also our attention and were provided for: and at the most moderate estimate not less than 60,000 of such sufferers, were tended and provided for from out that munificent bounty sent to us, which, generous as the sun, free as the air, came lighting up the darkness of our vale of death; infusing hope where else had been despair, and solaced how many a dying hour, cheered and comforted how many wreary and suffering ones, Almighty God only knows; Eternity alone will ever disclose.

And in my table of disbursements I include the totals of everything sent to these points in money, supplies, etc., or paid doctors and nurses for them, without reference to their credits, as these have been included in the above total of receipts, being included in the credits to different cities and our country at large, from which the money directly came. On September 12th, so large had been our receipts up to that t Received from Gov. Nichoi is, and from private sources sources direct; we havina received nothing from Hon. Wm. M.JEvarts. 22 REPORT OF THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION time, and advices from prominent cities North, East and West, showing such continued and overflowing generosity on the part of our countrymen, and such large sums, beyoud what we had already received, on hand in said cities, you adopted the resolu- tion offered by our worthy Treasurer on that evening, which re- quested that no further contributions be received for us, as we deemed that what funds we had »n hand, together with those in sight, would be ample for all needs here at home, as well as for all probable demands that might be made upon us. The fever had at that time been prevalent for.a month and one- half in our city; for near a month it had been present at Mem- phis, Grenada, Port Gibson and Vicksburg; we had in charge beside our own city, only the points of Grenada, Conton and Holly Springs ; Port Gibson making but very small calls on us, and Vicksburg and Memphis being amply able to care for them- selves. With your desire not to impose upon a generous public, and to receive only what was actually needed, and have no large balance of funds on hand, Jeft over from the epidemic, the sea- son being then so far advanced, we could not possibly have anticipated what subsequently occurred; and our action in requesting that contributions for us should cease, was both proper and right. It is gratifying to know that in this we are commended by those who have been and are our generous patrons, and that Mr. Henry Hentz, chairman of the Belief Committee of the New York Chamber of Commerce, in his letter of November 30th, acknowl- edging the receipt of our letter in which we made the recent appeal for further aid, in speaking of our action, stopping contribu- tions so early, speaks the feeling of all our friends when he says: " It is to be regretted that you did not allow the subscriptions to continue a little while longer, and thus made your financing more easy; but your action was prompted by a desire not to call for more than would suffice for your wants, and that action was warmly commended here, as it showed the Howard Association of New Orleans OF THE EPIDEMIC OF 1878. 23 was managed by gentlemen that toould not overtax the generous hearted people who were in sympathy with their ivork." But about one week after the adoption and publication of said resolution, the cry for help came ta us in rapid succession from some sixty or more different points, and to these we could not turn a deaf ear. So generous had been the response to us, and so large were the sums still sent us, that of the bounty so freely given us, we freely gave until about the end of October, when we saw that these outside demands had exhausted our means, and we were compelled to call once more upon a generous public for further aid to enable us to pay our debts, and if possible to give something to the physicians who had so faithfully served our sick, and were yet without any recompense from us. That call was answered in a manner so as to free us of our obligations, and enable us to give, if not what we would have liked to, at least something to our devoted and efficient home physicians, which otherwise we could not have done. Our expenditures to date, December 16th, as shown by the Treasurer's books and vouchers have been.............$380,185 83 and have been made to the points and for purposes as follows : New Orleans— Amounts.

The Peabody Association proposed to take our funds and with them purchase supplies needed by the suffering families of the sick, and to issue these supplies in rations to those whom we sent to them with our orders for these rations. In this was offered to us most valuable aid in the discharge of our labors. Our first duty was to the sick, and the more time we had to give to them, the more promptly could we get to them; and as our duty required us to visit the sick at least once a day, if we could be discharged of the obligation to call daily upon those who were convalescent, to see that their wants and those of their families were provided for, the more time would our members have to attend the sick. Beside, the plan of giving rations instead of money, promised and effected a great saving; for not only were the supplies needed purchased at wholesale prices, instead of the double prices paid by our patients at the corner grocery, but we were assured also that none of our money would be spent for liquor, which was too often the case. So that as we issued the orders for supplies our- selves to our patients, and saved them and ourselves much money, we have every reason to congratulate ourselves upon having so invaluable an auxiliary as the Peabody Subsistence Association, and to be entirely satisfied in subscribing to their aid. 4 36 REPORT OF THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION RECAPITULATION.

The foregoing statement of our receipts and expenditures, as also, the statement showing the number of cases which came under our charge, is not only due to our generous patrons, as showing to them the use we have made of the funds entrusted to us, but will also prove our vindication against the false and mendacious statements which have been made and circulated throughout our own country and in foreign lands, as to the amount which we had received; of the large balance which we were keeping to divide after the epidemic was over, and as to our making discriminations as to race, religion, etc., in the dis- tribution of the funds sent us. Never before has our Association been the subject of so many and such untruthful allegations. Ap- pealed to by different societies and individuals to donate of the funds entrusted to us for their distribution, to such societies and individuals representing races or secte, your uniform reply OF THE EPIDEMIC OF 1878. 27 was, that the Howard Association knew no race nor sect nor color, but gave gladly, to all alike who applied for our help, the relief which was their due from the funds entrusted to us. You properly refused to give to any others the funds entrusted to your care; and because the same was held for distribution ac- cording to need, after personal supervision by the individual members of our body, and who were held responsible and could be so held, by our Association. The location of our slates at some forty different points throughout the city were daily adver- tised in all the morning papers, with the names of every member, each in his own district; and the sole requisite for any needy sufferer, of whatever tongue, color, or sect, was to have his or her name and residence inscribed upon the nearest slate, to insure prompt relief and attendance from the member in charge. This, however, did not suffice some. Personal, sectarian or political ends might have been subserved by a donation from the immense balance of funds which we were accused of keeping on hand. We only gave through allopathic doctors; we only fur- nished doctor, nurse and medicine to the sick, and did not care for their starving families; we attended only Americans first, and French, English, etc., afterwards ; we had a wide open eye for the Christian, and could not discover a Jew; these and such other untrue and ungenerous accusations and insinuations were made against you, and are now all emphatically and finally disproven by the statement given. If these reports were intended to impede us in, or to put a stop to our work of relief, they entirely failed of their object, and we have no reason to believe that the confidence of our generous patrons was at all abated by them, as their remittances to us still continued, and our subsequent call for further aid, made at so late a day. was answered by the remittances of such balances as were still remaining on hand of funds collected. And now, brethren, wliat more can be said, save if we attempt to speak in praise of and thanks to the generous hearts that sent 28 REPORT OK THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION to our people that bounty, so grand, which we have administered to the stricken and afflicted. We have already, as best we could, expressed in words the thanks we feel to them for their divinely inspired charity. No human tongue, no human pen, can fittingly express it. It is as unutterable as the sorrow and suffering which their generosity has mitigated, and relieved. Meruity alone will unfold all the good that they have done. We who have in the ministration of their bounty been called to stand by the bedside of sickness and death, and in the house of mourning and destitu- tion, can tell them only that we have seen the light of hope replace the gloom of an almost despair, and strength and courage revive in those who were ready to die. We have seen, and we have felt, but even we do not, and cannot know all, here. The record of it all is written above, and there only shall they read it. We have, too, to thank our donors for the generous confidence they have bestowed upon us. In the distribution of the trust which was thus laid upon us, a great privilege has been bestowed, in seeing the widow and the orphan, the friendless and the needy, the sick, the suffering, and the sorrowing, made happy; for this we can only say out of sincere hearts, brethren, we thank you.
