| that the peace OF understanding might
! fall upon all who mourned.
| The family returned to their nome
after the funeral to wait for the nour
to go to the grave. The casket was
opened and the people allowed to pass
| by and view the remains For nearly
| three-auarters of an hour the throng
| of people passed by the casket and it
| was estimated that over 5000 people
| came and went in that time. Many
| who did this were not OF the assem-
blase in the church, but had come IN
from the crowd upon the Sidewalks,
which was even larger than the one In
the church.
The State party remained scared
until all had viewed the remains.
Then they passed about the casket ana
out of the church to take carriages FOR
restaurant for lunch before the re-
turn to Augusta, which was made on
the regular train leaving there at 1880
though special at 1.30 had previous
~ been decided upon. The special car
was attached to the afternoon express
from Brunswick to Augusta. The re-
turn was made early so that the conf
mittee members might have an oppor-
tunty to attend TO their afternoon du-
ties.
The floral tributes were many
and beautiful. The entire large
pulpit of the church was bank
of the most beautiful wreathes,
set pieces. bouquets and plants.
The offerings were from men
from all parts of the country. large
set pieces being presented by the
House and Senate of the United States,
and beautiful bouquets from President
and Mrs. Mckinley. The most notice
able of the set pieces was the imita-
ton of Mr.. Dingey's desk in the Lew
iston journal office. which was made
up of pink and Waite. This was sur
mounted 10y panel photograph of the
congressman.
The funeral was pronounced by the
State party as being the greatest tri-
butte TO the memory of any man who
has ever been buried in the State of
Maine. Many said they could recall no
instance when any funeral in the
State of Maine had been so largely at
tended.
And" said Adjutant General Rich
ards TO the Journal, every particle of
the honors came right from the heart
and were genuine. which is more proof
of the great regard every citizen OF
this State had for the straightforward.
intellectual and moral man than any
thing else could show"
Messenger n. S. Purington of the
State party. who arranged all the de-
tails of the trip, and saw that they
were carried out. deserves great cred!
for the success that attended his ef.
forts.

to do, the will Of his Divine Master
What a testimony his cOnsecrated life
has been all these years to the influence

How forcibly we are reminded, this
morning, of the earnest words he used
to speak with us concerning the re-

power of the gospel. How wildly we
recall his loving exhortation to make
the word of God the mass Of our con-

of us that were accustomed to meet
with him in the prayer and conference

he exhibited ON an occasion before re-

the brethren present to remember him
constantly at the throne Of grace that
he might have the strength to meet and
discharge his obligations as public
man to the honor and glory of God.
And then again on the even of his de-
