The most striking feature Of the funeral
services and burial was the strange, al
most unnatural, grief Of Joseph BOriani,
the Italian woman who rOr ten years was
Miss Halls constant companion. Per

accumulated by the knowledge that she is
now without friends or kin in un-
known land Then. TOO. the body. as Miss
Bortani looked at IL for the last time was
clad in WOmau'S garments. This was an
added source Of sorrow 10 the girl who
declared that her beloved friend would
have preferred to have been buried in the
male attire which she had used for a
decade.
