A very crowded meeting of literary gentlemen—the
friends and admirers of the late Mr. Brown (Artemus Ward)
—was held this afternoon in the rooms of the Savage
Club, Ashley's Hotel, Covent-garden, for the purpose of
arranging the best mode of paying a tribute of respect to
the departed genius. Mr. A. Halliday presided. Various
suggestions were made, but it was ultimately arranged
that those gentlemen desirous of attending the funeral
should assemble at the house of Mr. Millward, Prince's
terrace, Haverstock-hill, at one o'clock to-morrow, and
accompany the remains to its temporary resting-place at
Kensal-green. A deep feeling of sorrow prevailed over
the meeting.
