Funeral of Mrs. James NJ. Townsend

Funeral of Mrs James NJ. Tow nsena.
The funeral of Mrs. Maria Theresa, wife
of Hon. James NJ. Townsend, occurred yeg-
terday afternoon at three o'clock from the
family residence on Townsend avenue
There was a very large attendance, including
many of our leading citizens and members of
their families The remains lay in an ele-
CANT caskst and previous to the exercises
were viewed by the friends as they arrived.
The floral tributes we're exceedingly beauti-
full. Besides those from the family there
were exquisite contributions from friends
The day was smiling and the sun shone in its
splendor, while the near approach of the
fullness of the vernal season was everywhere
apparent, but throughout the entire COM
munity there was feeling of individual sor-
row and loss and for the bereaved household
sympathy was everywhere manifest. Rev.
Dr.. Newman Smyth opened the exercises by
rea ling appropriate passages of the scripture.
Rev. Mr. Burdett Hart, of Fair Haven, fol-
lowed with remarks peculiarly appropriate
to the sad occasion He spoke
of the bereavement, of the estimable
Christian character of the deceased
lady. In her youth the world offered a
| tempting share of its pleasures, but she en-
braced religion which became to her q daily
consolation and solace. With beautiful
home, surrounded by avenues of enjoyment,
with extensive travel at home and abroad and
love of art and the beautiful. her heart
still found its highest and supreme console
| ton and satisfaction in the life which prom
| ises brighter life beyond. Her faith was
| not shaken when confronted with the
thought of the grave and separation from
| loved ones. Though life still held out much
to live for, she gave to the sorrowing friends
| a beautiful lesson of trust and resignation
Her end was peace and reflected lustre on
the power of the Christian faith over the
tomb.
Rev. DR.. Newman Smyth invoked divine
consolation for the bereaved end the divine
blessing, in words that touched and impress
ed the hsarts of the mourning assembly The
solemn procession was then formed there
being in line large number of private fami-
Iy carriages besides many public carriages
Mr. Herbert C. Warren he'd charge of the
ceremonies st the house. The interment
was in the Grove street cemetery. Rev. MIR.
Hart offered short prayer at the grave, and
Rev DR.. Smyth pronounced the benediction.
Tho pail bearer were Prof. Timothy
Dwight, Prot. Cyrus, Northrop and Henry @.
Kingsley of Yale college, Hon. Henry B. Har-
rison, and Messrs. Wilbur F. Bay and Henry
D, White.
