The supply of floral tributes in Ma

march to the cemetery, street cars in
the vicinity ceased to run and all other

LAID To REST IN
MACON GRAVE
Thousands in His Home City Pay
Last Tribute to Georgia
Statesman.

MACON, Feb. 19.-Georgia mas
probably never witnessed a more inn
posing funeral than that which was
accorded Senator A. o. Bacon here
to-day. Macon has never mourned
the death of any of its sons with such
a degree of unaffected regret and sor-
row. Not only was every public office
closed, but practically the entire bust
ness of the city was suspended dur
ing the hours of the services, which
were delayed for an hour by driz-
cling rain.
TIL procession to Rose Hill Gene
terry, moving from Christ Episcopal
Church, in the heart of the city, UP
Walnut street, was the longest ever
seen here, comprising every funeral
carriage in the city and scores of au-
tomobiles and other vehicles. In line
also were members of the two camps
Of the United Confederate Veterans,
to one of which Senator Bacon De
longed more than 400 Masons, wear
ing their insignia of membership; the
three local companies of militia, and
fed drums
The services at Christ Church were
simple, yet impressive, being carried
out without deviation in the strict
form of the Episcopal Church, the
Rev. John S. Bunting, the rector Of
ficiating. There was no eulogy. At
the grave brief rites were held by
the Masons, r. L. Golding, of Savan-
nah, the grand master of the Grand
g -
sands of citizens, men and women
and children, gathered at the ceme-
terry to await the services there, and
formed such a concourse that the pro-
cession could hardly enter. The chill
dren of the Masonic Orphans Home,
to whom Senator bacon had been
very kind. were grouped near the
grave.
Friends Bear Body.
The active pallbearers were men
with whom Senator Bacon had been
linked in close friendship in life. They
were Roland Ellis, Minter Wimberly,
r. c. Jordan, Emory Winship, L. p.
Hillyer, John T. Boifeuillet, Custis
Nottingham and Wallace Miller The
honorary escort comprised the Unit
ed States Senatorial committee, the
House committee, the Macon Bar AS
ISOLATION delegation and committees
from the CITY COuHCl, tue EQUITY
Commissioners the Atlanta Bar AS
ISOLATION and the Macon Chamber of
Commerce. Prominent men from all
parts of the State gathered here to
pay in person their need of respect
to the memory of a man whom they
had so admired and respected. Prac-
tically every bar association in Geor-
gia was represented. while every city
and many towns sent citizens to be
present at the obsequies over the dis
tingnished Georgian.
There were only two wreaths placed
on the casket, those being from the
United States Senate and President
and Mrs. Wilson
Widow at His Grave.
Mrs. Bacon, almost overcome with
grief and in heavy mourning, at
tended the services at the church and
also went to the cemetery, leaning
