A Belated Funeral Sermon.

The funeral Of II. G. Solomon, who
died recently at his home near
Sapp, Boone county. had an unusual
feature. in that the funeral Of Mrs.
solomon, wife Of the deceased, who
died about ten years ago, was
preached at the same time. At the
time OF her death. no minister was
available and it was not possible to
have services over the body as de
sired. It was afterwards decided
by the husband and family that when
death came 10 the elder Solomon.
funeral service should be held over
both at the same time. The plan
was carried out and the minister
preached the funerals simultaneously
taking the same text for both and
applying his remarks to both.
