a mass OF flowers woven into all man
ner Of appropriate designs by loving
hands. Very seldom has such an
abundance Of floral tributes been seen
at a funeral in Honolulu. They we're
beautiful. The people sat about me
room or out upon the verandas.

schooner, with sails all set and flag
flying, was brought in and deposited
at the foot of the coffin. This was The
gift Of B. F. Dillingham; and was de-
signed TO recall to mind the cOnns-ion
Of the deceased with the early shipping
of the Islands. The coIors Of the vari-
Gus part of the ship were represented
by flowers. Mrs. Amy L. King made
the piece.

was heard, quiet at once reigned. Then
as there came a lull in the words Rad,
the choir, stationed in the makai End

out one plea" The service continued
and then came Rock OF Ages. As
