The Funeral of Caroline Scott Ha.

Her Remains Are Now at Rest in Crown
Hill Cemetery - simple nut I'm
pressive Services-A Note from
President Harrison.
THE FINAL. SCENE.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. cot is
over at last. All that is yet mortal of
Caroline Scott Harrison is lying at rest
in the silent cemetery of Crown Hill,
and her place will know her no
more. The deathbed scenes; the long
journey Of sorrow from the capital to
the cemetery; the services for the dead;
all are over and the president must fin
ish his worldly course alone as best he
may. Nobly and without a murmur
has he borne his trouble, as, all could
see who witnessed the final ceremon-
les at Indianapolis.
His appearance is indelibly impressed
on the memories of those who met him
when he stepped from his darkened
car into the broad light of the union
depot. Pale was he and haggard. ard
with certain slight stoop in the Shout
ders, which men get who grieve; but
the step was firm, as became that of
an old soldier, and the expression of
his face was one Of resignation and
OF hope.
10 anyone who has witnessed the
pomp which surrounds the burial of
kings and princes this simple funeral
was peculiarly impressive. The wife
OF the chief executive Of 65, 900, 900
people was being borne TO her grave,
but there was less circumstance than
often surrounds the burial of a simple
citizen Of the common wealth.
