New Organizations in Line. ——4 ;l ' i Brigadier General Jas. L. Fleming, commanding the Eastern Brigade, lj. C. V., Is rapidly completing his plans for the line of march ami the order of formation for the parade on Memo rial Day. Capt. Fleming has been made marshal of the day by the La dies' Memorial Association. He has chosen Col. Chas. 11. Withrow, chief of staff, and Col. Withrow is at work on the line of formation. There will be two organizations in the parade this year that have not been In the habit of participating: The Uniform Rank. No. 6, of the Knights of Pythias, and the Patri archs Militant, will be in the parade. The other organizations will be: The Richmond Hussars, the Clinch Rifles, the Oglethorpe#, the Sacred Heart Ca dets, the Cadets of the Academy of Richmond county, the One Hundred Mounted club, the veterans, and the orator of the day, Hon. D. G. Fogarty. The marshal of the day and his staff, followed by the carriage of the orator of the day, will lead the pa rade. The order of '/.arch has not. been decided on. but |ji all probability It will be down Broad street to Center, out Center to Greene street, and down Greene street to Lincoln, and out Lin coln street to Calhoun street and down Calhoun street to the cemetery. It has been the custom heretofore for the Academy Cadets and the mil itia companies to line up on the side ot the street on Calhoun, while the Yotnans pass, presenting arms. They then follow into the cemetery, where the men fall out to hear the address of the day. Card From Ladies' Memorial Ass'n.
