The body was taken from the town
hall, where it lay in state since last
night, to the pier under escort of de-
tachment of mounted police and plac-
ed in an especially constructed mort
uary chapel.
The body was met at the gang plank
by officers of the Lusitania, the guard
of honor consisting of the liners quar-
termasters. The ships flags are at
half mast and the mortuary chapel is
draped in mourning. There were no
crowds and no excitement.
