road. The depot was hung with black cloth
and the national colOrs drsped, and a crap
ed flag was suspended from cord stretch
cd across the road.
The Military Guard of Honor, consisting
Of members Of the Veteran Reserve Corps
VINO accompany the remains, was imme-
ulAsely drawn up around the hearse car,
eight Of them holding themselves in readi-
ness to carry the coffin 10 the hearse sta
toned few yards distant, while the rest
aanked the military pall-bearers on either
side, with swords drawn to the
remains. On either side Of the Mill
tsry guard stood the special Guard of Hon
or, composed Of Generals in the United
States service, on one part, and Of G over
nor Brough and staff, with the civic pail
bearers and leading members of various
Committees, on the other.
The military Guard of Honor took the
coffin upon their shoulders and moved slow
ly and sOlemnly to the hearse, attended by
their associates with drawn swords, ss the
camp Chase Band, stationed in front of the
depot, played dirgs. The hearse present
ed splendid appearance. It's floor was
covered with beautiful white flowers which
relieved thesombreness Of plumes and drap-
ed flags with which it was surmounted.
The drspery wss black velvet loOped up
with rcsettes, in the center of each silver
star. The hesrss was drawn by six pure
white horses, all appropriately decorated,
and each attended by q colored groom,
wearing badges of mourning.
The following gentlemen acted as Pail
Bearers: Ex-Gov. Tod, Hon. R. P. spal-
ding, Hon. J. C. DiVen, Gen. R P. Buck

The coffin hsviag been placed in the
hearse, g beautiful cross wrought Of Whits
flowers was placed upon the head and foot
of the same. The military Guard of Honor
formed around the hesrse, which, preceded
by the Camp Chase Band, moved of slowly
on Wilson Avenue, followed by the Pail
Bearers on either flank, and by thesGuard
Of Honor, mounted. The 29th o. N. G., was
drawn up in line, with arms reversed, and
saluted the hearse and Guard IS they
passed. The cortege was met al Prospect
street by the Civic Guard of Honor, when il
turned back to Eaclid street, and consti-
tuted the head of the procession which was
formed according to the programme by
Colonel Barnett, Chief Marshal, and hiA
Aids.
THE PROCESSION.
As the magnificent cortege moved slowly
and solemnly down Euclid street, led by
the band playing funeral march, the vast
crowds of people of both sexes and of ali
ages and conditions, who had packed the
vast area about the depot, eager and rev
erent spectators of the grand pageant, be-
gan general movement down the broad
beautiful avenue. We have never seen
better hammered crowd, or procession
conducted throughout with such eonsum-
mate precision and order. This was in part
owing to the capital police arrangement.
but still more largely due TO the sympa-
thetic spirit Of the spectators, which
would not allow them to run into any bois-
ferrous or selfish manifestations.
The vast concourse of military and civil
bodies, societies and associations, moved in
the following order:
