the memory of a man, on Monday.
as the body of Col. Ezra Rippel was
conveyed to it's final resting place,
City, state and nation Joined in rev.
erence to the ColonePs patriotism,
uprightness of character and his
charitableness. Over 5000 people
were present at his funeral; among
the number were Governor Stuart,
of Pennsylvania, and his staff, Adult

eral Dougherty, Col. Stillwell of the
18th Regiment, together with a rep

the State; all of the Judiciary of

county and municipal officers. So
great was the throng of men of high
standing in business, social and the
day School scholars, in mourning
for us to enumerate them. His old
comrads of the G. A. R. were there
in full force. The Masons, Royal
Arch and Templars and letter car

the loss of a man they loved. The
floral offerings were of a magnitude
beyond any adequate description

mon was preached by Rev. DR.. Mof-
fet after which the cortege, which
was a mile in length, proceeded to
the cemetery where the final services
of burial were performed.
