ened except it die, ard that which thou
sowess thou sowest not that body that
shall be but bare grain, it may chance of
wheat or of some other grain, but
GOO giyeth it a body as it hath
pleased Him and to every seed His own
body. There are, also, celestial bodies
and bodies terrestrial, but the glory of
the celestial is one and tho glory of the
terrestrial is another. There is
one glory of the sun and an
another glory of the stars; for as one
star ditfereth from another star in glory,
SO also is the resurrection of the death.
1t is sown in corruption, it is raised in
corruption. 1t is sown in dishonor, it is
raised in glory. 1t is sown in weakness,
it is raised in power. 1t is sown a natu-
and as we have borne the image Of
| the earthly we shall also bear the
image of the heavenly. Now this / say,
herit the kingdom of God Neither doth
corruption inherit interruption. Behold
| | show you the master. We shall not all
sleep, but we shall all be changed;
| in moment, in the twinkling of
| trumpet shall sound and the dead shall
be raised incorruptible and shall be
| changed. For this corruptible must put
on interruption, and this mortal must
put on Immortality. SO when this cor
ruptible shall put on interruption, and
| this mortal shall have put on mortality
then shall be brought to pass the same

At the conclusion of the service the
procession formed and marched toward
| the cemetery. A s,hccession.of heavy
showers so delayed movements that the
| line had to be broken before it reached
the cemetery, and forming in files on
either side of the avenue for Y&arly
three miles, the military and the civic
societies made way for the funeral car.
The state militia were stationed at the
entrance to the cemetery and on either
side of the driveways leading to the
vault where at Mrs. Garfield s request it
was decided to place the remains. The
steps to the vault were carpeted with
flowers, and, on either side of the en-
trance was an anchor of tuberosCs and
a cross of white smilaX and evergro' ~
were festooned above. A heavy black
canopy was stretched over the steps
from which the exercises were to be con-
Quoted. At $50 P. NJ. the procession
entered the gateway which was archcd
over with black, with appropriate in
scriptions. In the keystone were the
word: "Come to Rest" On the
side were the words, Lay linn TO rest
whom we have learned to love" On the
other, Lay him to rest whom we have
learned to trust" A massive cross Of
evergreens swung from the center of the
arch. The United States Marine Band
continuing the sweet mournful strains it
had kept up during the entire march,
entered first. Then came the Forest
City troops of Cleveland, which was the
escort of the President III bis Inaugural
ton. Behind it came the funeral car
with its escort of the Twelfth United
States ArtillerymeD, followed by a bat
TALON of knights Templar and the Cleve-
land Greys. The mourners' carriage
and those containing the guard of
honor, comprised all of the procession
that entered the grounds. The cavalry
haulted at the vault and drew up in line,
facing it with sabre presented. The gar
drew up in front, with the mourners'
carriage and those Of the cabinet behind.
The band played, "Nearer my God to
Thee, as the military escort lifted the
coffin from the car and carried it into the
vault, the local committee of recAp-
| ton, Secretary Blaine, Marshal Henry
and one or two personal friends standing
at either side of the entrance. None of
the Presidents family, except two of the
boys, left the carriage during the exer-
cises which occupied less than half an
hour.
FUNERAL NOTES.
Gen. Smith, the adjutant-general of
the state, will furnish guard as long as
the body remains in the vault. The
sexton thinks it will be but few days I'M
til final interment takes place.
AT Mrs. Garfield's suggestion, the
casket containing the late Presidents re-
mains will be enclosed in an iron cage.
| Then a cement vault will be built
around this, of sufficient strength to re-
sist all attempts to remove the body, and
| dimensions enough to form the founda-
ton for the proposed monument. The
mayor of the city has detailed police
| force to be ON duty until the final inter-
ment.
At the head of the vault in the back
ground, right over the head of the coffin,
hangs a large floral wreath sent by the
ladies of Dubuque, Iowa, to Mrs. Gar
field. The pathway from the carriage
way where the carriage stopped, into the
vault was covered with cedar laid down,
neatly sewed together on top of this
were scattered white flowers, immortelles,
tube roses, etc. Right in front of the
gate, at the entrance to the vault, was
spread large piece of carpet, covered
with tube roses and other white flowers.
this is covered over with q canopy of
deep, black broad-cloth.
Just outside the vault, at the gate,
there was a cross of elegant white flowers
placed: with the motto, "Dead but not
forgotten" 1t was from the Bolivian
delegation.
