hero, borne by the bearers, was conyeyei l
to the large ball in the southern end 81
the building, and the doors thrown opelf
to afford an opportunity to the eager
crowd to look upon the features of one
whose death they regarded as great ma
tional calamity. Good order was OBJ
served, and the dense crowd slowly made
its way through the rotunda into the
large hall where the coffin laid, and as
they passed gazed for the last time upon
all that is mortal of the gallant dead.
Many of the ladies', as they passed
shod tears over the remains, and in token
of their deep regard for the memory of
the noble chieftain, pressed their lips
upon the lid of his coffin. Witnessing
the deep feeling of sorrow manifested BY
these fair daughters of Virginia, an ell

the features fixed in death. The coffin
which contained the remains of the de-

door over the face. On the coffin was
engraved the simple inscription Lieu
tenant-General T. j. jackson. Born
jan. 2lst, 1924; died May 10th, 1868"
All the incidents connected with these
interesting but melancholy ceremonies,
were marked by deep feeling of sorrow.
Eyes unused to weep were suffused with
tears, and the great popular heart pull
stated with emotions of grief too deep for
utterancc.
1t is understood that the remains Of the
deceased will, this morning, be conveyed
from tho Capitol of Virginia to bis late
home, Lexington, ockbridge county,
where they will be inferred
All the courts in Richmond, as well as
the city councils, passed resolutions of
