1t was after 3 O'Clock when the
silent and anxious throngs outside the
church saw the pageant
through the church doors. First came
the guard of military and naval Of
ficers, the generals and admirals form
ing in a double line leading from the
entrance to the waiting hearse.
Again the flag draped casket with it's
wealth of flowers appeared and was
committed to the hearse. The pres
ident and members of the cabinet fol
lowed arm in arm and stepped into
the waiting carriages. The relatives
entered carriages next. Then the
separate line of troopers broke from
their battalion front and wheeling in
to platoons took up the march to the
grave.
There never was greater reverence
shown to any man, living or dead,
than was shown to the dead president
today. AS the funeral procession
passed women sobbed convulsively
and at the cemetery gates
where the people had remained
for hours pressing against the iron
fence two women tainted during the
exercises at the vault. It was a won.
derful tribute OF surprising love that
was rendered today, in his, native
place, to the memory of VIM. McKin-
ley, and it will be long before a
greater or more reverent honor is
paid to any man.
1t was exactly four minutes after 4
O'Clock when the funeral car bore the
remains of the dead president through
the gateway of his last resting place.
Twenty minutes after that time the |
brief services at the vault was over,
the members Of the family and dis
tinguished men of the nation, who
had come so far to do him honor, had
passed through the gates on their
homeward way.
One hour and forty minutes after
the hearse had entered the cemetery
the place was clear and the dead
president was resting alone under the
watchful care of the men of the regu-
lar army, a sentry's measured tread
.resounded from the cement walk be-
fore the vault, another kept vigil, on
the grassy slope above and at the
head and at the foot of the casket
stood armed men. Before the door
which was not closed tonight was
