Monday oil this week witnessed the
entombing of Rev. T. R. WEIGH, for
merly pastor of the First Presbyterian
church in this city, and lately, for change
of climate, U. S. Consul to Hamilton,
Canada. The remains of DR., WEIGH
lay in the chancel of the Presbyterian
church from twelve until three, in order
that friends and members of his COM
munion might cast a farewall glance
upon his peaceful and honored face,
Upon the casket rested numberless floral
offerings, wreaths Of white hyacinths,
crosses Of white and purple %yiolets,
clusters of Gala lilies, and a cluster of
orange blossoms from a Sabbath school
pupil of the revered dead, sent from
Florida--a memorial offering. For some
time friends of the deceased moved softly
around the casket with sad farewell
thoughts of the dead. At three o'clock
Rev. E. S, Baird begun the funeral x
e~rcises. He was followed by Kew. Mr..
Winfield and Rev. Mr.. Dickinson, of
Piue Bluff. AT the cemetery Rev. Mr..
Buchanan offered a last prayer ere the
mortal remains were forever at rest.
This prayer, inspired by faith, lifted the
hearts OF his hearers to that Heavenly
life, which in infinite peace and beauty
had dawned upon the freed soul parted
from the body now at rest. A large con-
course of friends gathered about the
tomb in respect TO the memory Of him
who was gentle and lovely in his lite.
