FUNERAL OF THE LATE DUKE OF CLEVELAND.
—The funeral of the late Duke of Cleveland took
place yesterday at St. Mary's Church, Staindrop, Durham
and, in accordance with the feelings of the Duchess of Cleve-
land, there was as little display as was consistent with the
character of the ceremony. It was not generally known
until Monday that the funeral would take place on the fol-
lowing day, but the number of people present from the
adjoining districts was almost as groat as when the former
duke was interred, only a few months ago. The demise
of the late nobleman has taken every one by surprise, and
much regret is expressed at the occurrence, not only by
the tenantry, but by all residing in the vicinity of Raby.
Since he assumed the title he has been most liberal to the
former, and, although his residence at the castle has been
but brief, ha has been much respected. The fact of the title
having past into three hands in so short a time, and the
present successor being the third brother who has taken it
successively, has been a theme of much comment in the
north. Shortly after the doors of the old church were
opened it was filled, with the exception of the pews retained
for the mourners; and along the road leading from Raby
Castle to Staindrop there was a large assemblage of specta-
tors. The tenantry of the deceased nobleman were permitted
to join the procession, and the number who thus testified
their respect was very considerable. The funeral co) lege left
Raby Castle at half-past eleven in the morning, the car-
riages arriving by the west entrance and leaving by the east.
The hearse was drawn by four horses, and bore the deceased's
coat-of-arms and monogram. The Duchess of Cleveland ,
and the present duke were the chief mourners. As the
funeral procession reached the church, about 12 o'clock, it
was met at the entrance to the churchyard by the Rev. H.
C. Lipscomb, rector of Staindrop, Rev. J. Parker, Rev. J.
Wright, &c. The office for the dead was recited as the
coffin was borne to the church, the " Dead March in Saul"
being played by the organist ; and when the coffin had
been placed on a raised platform erected to receive it, the
service for the dead, in which the choir took part, was corn •
menced—the Rev. H. C. Lipscomb officiating. At its con-
clusion the body was conveyed to the mausoleum built by
the late duke's predecessor, and which contains the remains
of several members of his family.
