rived except Mr.. w. w. Corcoran and
the undertaken, Mr.. Gawler. Mr. c. NJ.
Matthews and Lieutenant Nicholson. who
had accompanied the remains from New

Mr. Corcoran. The undertaken, with the
assistance OF some OF the railroad en-
ployes, lifted out the coffin, which was en-
closed in a wedge-shaped. foreign-looking
box OF wood, heavily bound at the sides
and corners with straps OF wrought iron.
On each side were three iron handles.
The box was covered with black pail and
drnped with an American flag.
IL was borne at once 10 the bearse, fol-
lowed by Mr.. Corcoran and his two repre-
sentatives, and taking carriages the entire
