PIERRE. S. D., July Especial. 1.-The
funeral services Of the noted cattieman,
James Philip. better known as "Scotty,"
were held today at his late home at the

ing over the great territory west OF the
river, and men. women and children had
been gathering TO take part in the last
services to be rendered their dead friend. a.
Business in the city of Fort Pierre was
entirely suspended on Wednesday after
noon. So thorough was this suspension
that even the saloons were closed until 6
o clock, and no money or friendly pull
could induce any one in that town to break
the suspension OF trade that was agreed
upon as a mark of respect to the dead
neighbor and home booster.
After services under Episcopal and Ma
sonic auspices the body was borne TO the
hearse by six old-time friends and the
procession started TO the picturesque burial
spot two miles distant which Mr. Philip
himself had selected the day before he died
Almost every old-time cattlemsn from
the Cheyenne river to the country beyond

Indians and mixed bloods. men in auto
mobiles. carriages and on horseback, peo-
pie on foot white-aproned Masons. plumed
Knights Templar, typical cowboys on
their bropchos and every class of life repre-
scented in this section OF the state was in
evidence on this memorable occasion.
It was a sad but sincere farewell to a
man whose heart was large. whose DISPOSE
ton. though stern, was kind, and whose
life had been one that won for him a repu-
tation and respect that viii ever be remem-
bered by those who knew him anywhere on
earth.
