In the presence of a large number OF
friends, a gathering, representative OF
nearly every walk in life, all that was
mortal of Senator John H. Ives was
consigned to mother earth at Oakland
cemetery yesterday afternoon. The as
semblage barred its head while Rev. s.
G. Smith spoke brief prayer, a hand
full of earth gave forth a hollow sound
as it fell upon the lid of the flower
covered Casket, the venerable leader OF
the Masonic lodge in attendance utter
ed the final words of parting, and the
ceremony, simple as the life that had
gone out, was closed.
Public esteem was manifest in the
large number of persons gathered at
the family residence, 275 Harrison
avenue. Here, men prominent in all
stations of life were assembled, and
each paid homage to a memory he es-
teemed and delighted in commenting
on. Politicians and those holding
public Office were perhaps in the ma
joritg,. for their particular circle the
senator was prominent figure in life.
For their benefit and others who called
to pay their last sad respects, the
casket lid was raised and each per-
mitted to take a parting look.
Services Were Simple.
The funeral services at the house
were simple to a degree. Rev. S. G.
Smith read the Service and concluded
with a prayer for the dead, after which
Mrs. Jane Huntington Yale and Mrs.
j. A. Harris sang Lead Kindly Light
and Rock of Ages The close was
marked by the carrying out Of the
Masonic ritual, the service being read
by detail from Ancient Landmarks
lodge, of which the senator had been a
prominent member.
At the close of the service, there still
remained hundreds who had not seen
the face of the senator and for their
benefit the replacing of the casket lid
was delayed. When the end of the
long line had been reached, the casket
with its floral covering was deposited
in the hearse and the procession to the
cemetery began. The cortege was a
lengthy one. Many unable to secure a
carriage, followed on foot or boarded
street cars, leading to Oakland ceme-
terry.
Many Beautiful Floral Tributes.
The floral offerings were many and
unusually beautiful One design, a pill
low with the words cat Rest" came from
the police department., another bore the
card of the Eagles, a big floral harp
was the offering from the Druids, while
from the Masons was received the well
known design of the compass and
square in white roses. The head of the
coffin stood near a large mirror and
this was Literally hidden from sight by
flowers and designs.
In addition to many Of the city Off
Gals and representatives of the two
political organizations, the Ramsey and

house and senate attended in a body
