was delivered at the procathedral. but at
the neighboring Church of the Incarna

overflow service was held at the same
time as that in the larger edfice. Rev. c.
Ernest Smith spoke feclingly of the life
and work of the dead ecclesiastic, taking
his text II Samuel. ii:3S: And the
king said unto his servants. know We not
that there Is a prince and d great man
fallen this day in Israeli"
The overflow service was necessary on
account OF the great number of persons
who were unable to gain admittance to
the procathedral. 1T had been thought 1t

procathedral. but 1t was finally decided

the Incarnation, because of the threaten
ing weather. Both services ended at
nearly the same time. the address OF Mr
Smith and the TIE Deum at the pro
cathedral corresponding. to give opportu-
nifty for all those who intended to so to
