The route Of the procession was south on

expression of grief on the faces Of the men
brought tears TO the eyes of the lockers on.
The mournful dirge of the band and the slow
and solemn tread of the soldiers presented a
scene long to be remembered. As the fune-
raj cortege moved along the bells toled SOL
emnly the knell of the departed, and as the
sound vibrated far and near, the hearer was
struck with awe and grief.
A number of stores and business-houses
acquiesced in the request of Mayor Hatch,
and closed their establishments while the
procession passed. Mr.. Epply-into whose
charge the bodies were given after arriving
in the city-very kindly furnished cofins,
