afternoon at the German Luthran Church, in

ly. The German Fire Engine Company turned out
to pay the last honors to Their cenrade, and es-
eorted the body from Mr.. Aehrten's home, in
Spring street. to the church. The remains were
conveyed to Bethany Cemetery, and inferred in
the family burial ground.
The remains or Mr.. Thomas ]. KnauG were IN
te1rsd near the same place on the preceding day.
The funeral Of this gentleman took place az Inc
Lutheran Church, and was largely attended by
the members Of the Board OF Trade, Eagle Fire
Company, Hioernian, Fellowship and Mechanics
Societies, Of which institutions be was member
