LONDON. August iS-A dramatic
sequel to the death Of Florence Night
ingaie occurred to day In the death OF

acted as Miss Nightingaie's orderly ia
her hospital work during the CrImcan

at the age Of 30 years. When Fine

mean war and her subsequent efforts
In behalf of English soldiers. for a

IN the affections Of the people that
there Is now widespread demand that

eat sons lie buried
The press OF England ia urging
Westminster Abbey az the burial place.
The greatest demand. however. for a
public funeral with fun military hoil-
ors, comes from the English soldiers.
in whose behalf Miss Nightingale de-
voted her life since early woman hoed.
They demand that they be given an
opportunity TO da honor Ia her mem
ory.
The death Of Miss Nightingale has
stimulated the movement to abolish

porting English hospitals by means 1T
voluntary contributions and Of estab-
fishing a system Of governmental
maintenance, This is one OF the things
for which Miss Nightingale labored SO
assiduously for the last half century.
With exception of the death of the
late Queen Victoria. the death Of no
other English woman has called forth
so many expressions az regret and
messages Of coincidence as that of Miss
Nightingale, These messages come
from All tt~rr-ti nc wurfri7- ing George
