Fully three hundred persons gathered in
Congressional cemetery this afternoon 10
witness the funeral ceremonies over the
body of the late Moy Wah, the Chinaman
messed the burial were much interested at
the novel sight On the way from the un-
dertaklng establishment a brother of the
dead Chinaman occupied seat on the
nearse and scattered perforated pieces of
Taper through the streets. When the ceme-
terry was reached the party greeted the
small party of Cinnamon from Chinatown
and had 1t not been fer the lowering of the
coffin In the grave there would have been
nothing to indicate that so sad a rite was
bsilg performed
Earlier in the day two Cinnamon had
Cinnamon recently buried. but this was
found hard task on account Of the num-
Der of boys who had gathered there. There
was a lively scrambling for the cigarettes
put on the graves.
When Moy Wahs body was being lowered
into the grave his brother and cousins
and friends set two roast chickens cups
of tea and wine near the head of the grave
and burned punches of punk and incense
Two bowls. each contaiEi1g rice and a hard
boiled egg, were placed near the head
and then the relatives each put hand
full of dirt on the coffin.
A large box full of the dead mans
effects, such as books. receipts. bills and
diaries, were piled near the grave and ig-
nited. On the fire the celestials nut
punches of punk and other Chinese articles
When the grave had been filled the eata-
DIES We're put on the grave, and later In
TIE afternoon they will be removed.
