Laid to Rest.
Yesterday afternoon, in Westminster
church. were performed the funeral
ceremonies over the remains of the
late j. X. Side. Impressive IN all
the details, they yet had an ele-
ment of simplicity about them that
was very pathetic, and in accordance
with the manners of the deceased. The
light of the beautiful SunShiny day took
ON mellower shade as it was ditfused
through the stained glass windows of
the sacred editice, and the per-
feet bower of remembranceS displayed
in beautiful tlowery emblemS redeemed
in part the sadness and SomberneSS that
pervaded everybody i'll the vast congre-
CATION. The asSemblage was in every
respect most representative one.
While public officials, men in high bus
mess standing, and members of the pro-
LESSONS were there in large numbers,
other pewS were filled with those of
humber walks in life-mechanicS and
ery-day-Working men, but the Sentl-
ment of all was sorrow for the deceased
and sympathy for the bereaved rela-
tives. The tribute to the memory OF j.
h Side was universal, heartfelt and
genuine.
1t was exactly at 2:15 p. m. that Prof.
Proctor, the OrganiSt, opened the cere
monies by playing solemn funeral
march; the big entrance doors were
swung open, and the melancholy cor
tege passed down the main aisle.
The coffin was born by the pail
bearers J. S. PillSbury, {. II. Petit,

headed by III. q. Side. They at once
took possession of the seats reserved for
them directly in front of the pulpit,
which was almost hid from view by the
wealth of the floral decorations
considered the finest ever seen
in this city by universal consent.
They included wreathes from the Off
GERS of the bank and from Mrs. E. r.
Barber; Gates Ajar,'' from the
family; pillow, Mrs. w. l.. Wolford: a
large basket of cut flowers, Mrs. w. ID.
Washburm; a floral rope, Mrs. H. w.
Mrs. 7. ID. Skies and Col. William
McCrory. The following gentlemen
acted as ushers: w. NJ. Tenney,
William Wolford, Charles Thompson,
Il. d. Skies and w. E. Burwel. The
Bankers association. the MillerS' asso-
citation and the clearing house officials
attended in bodies, and were allotted
special seats in the body of the
church. Rev. DR.. Burrell spoke
eloquently from the book of job:
If man die shall he live again?'
Speaking of the hope of Immortality
which has sOOthed and sustained man
kind in all ages, he pictured in beauti-
full language the answer that nature
gives to man to this grand query: If a
man die shall he live again? If man be
like the day that dies at night he is also
like the day that is born at dawn.
If he is like the tide that GIBBS he is also
like the tide that flows again. If man
dies he will live again and Job lived to
say Il know that my Redeemer liveth."

He lives in memory. He is

its power and blossom for good. l am
not here to eulogize this, my personal
friend, but it is meet l should have
some words for the thoughts and
deeds, the strict integrity, and
the steady uprightneSs Of him whose
name is written on the stones of the
city. He well merited the praise of
that old saying: IAN honest mans the
noblest work of God" He finished his
address by the recitation of the closing
lines of "Thanatopsis," amid breath
less and impressive silence. Rev.
q. l.. Trabert offered a fervent prayer
for grace to gather a lesson from the
life of the departed. The procession to
the cemetery was about the largest ever
seen in the city and was participated in
by nearly all those who were in the
church
