sons were banked around the outskirts
Of the hall. half OF whom could not SEQ
over the shoulders Of those in front.
but who could hear and take their part
in them.
When the bands began with the we'll
known revival hymn. 1.-THE Better
World" the ocean of. voices took up
the strain and sang three stanzas Of it.
Then every one bowed his head in ST.
lent prayer.
The bands broke into the dead march
at the conclusion Of the prayer, and
the entrance where appeared a cluster
OF white tipped flags.
Amid reverent silence the white cat
afalque was wheeled along the aisle to
position in front Of the platform.
where its escort broke to the right and
left and mounted the steps.

ed his chair where he fell to his knees
and buried his face in his hands. The
assembly then sang "Dear Savior. I
can ne'er repay the debt Of love I
owe"
Commissioner Lawley, the late gen.
erals right hand man, made a brief
extemporaneous prayer, and this was
followed by the hymn Pass me not. o
gentle SAVIOR"
Commissioner Adelaide Cox offered
prayer and with a great murmur of
voices every one repeated the Lords
prayer.
A brigade Of Salvation choristers
sang when the roll is called in heaven
and the hosts shall muster there" after
which Commissioner Higgins led in re-
sponsive reading from Revelations,
chapters to 8, which was followed by
the singing Of another hymn.
The congregation then read silently
from books several extracts of the late
generals writings. the reading being
interspersed by hymns. one sung by
children and another by all the wom-
en- in the hall.
Silent reading. alternating with
hymns. continued for half an hour,
following which true Salvation Army
revival service was conducted and an
invitation to sinners and backsliders to
come to "The Mercy Seat"
Dozens Of persons forced their way
thru the crowded aisle to the mercy
seat on either side of the platform,
where they knelt in prayer.
In some cases the police were re-
quired to force way for the penitents.
As the penitents went forward, the
singing. shouts of encouragement, and
amens increased in volume until the
Olympia was turned into a colossal old
fashioned revival.
Striding back and forth on the plat
form. Gen. Bramwell Booth, swinging
his arms above his head. led the sing
ing. pausing frequently to remind sin
ners that the dead leader had given his
life to saving them. The revival serv-
Ice was concluded with the singing Of
His Rlcod Can Make the Vilest
Clean: His Blood Avails for Me-"
The most impressive feature of the
solemnities then followed. All the
soldiers Of the army rose and recited
the covenant of fidelity, pledging
themselves to be faithful soldiers Of
the Lord. ef
The catafalque was then wheeled
slowly down the aisle while the great
gathering sang when the Roll Is
Called Up Yonder I'll Be There"
The coffin was placed in hearse
and conveyed to the Salvation Army
headquarters. where 1t will rest until
taken to Abney Park cemetery today.
