In a fiower-fllled room his casket
banked with chrysanthemums, roses
and carnations, Neal Comfy received his
friends for the last time, yesterday n
ternoon at his home. No. 62O West
Front street. The downstairs rooms
were crowded with friends attending
thu funeral. many standing In the
rooms and hall.
Al the head OF the casket a great
wreath OF lavender and white chrysan-
themums. tied with lavender gauze, and
bearing the words, "Our Friend, SEEM
ed 10 convey "a special benediction 10
the peaceful face in the casket below.
The wreath was a tribute to the dead
such as few Of the worlds wealthy and
mighty have received, a tribute that
money could not buy Each petal in
each flower meant some kind act per-
formed by the dead. and known per-
haps only 20 the dead and one other.
The wreath was eloquent Of the grail
tude OF the "Down-and-outers" OF the
Sunday Breakfast Mission 10 Neal
Comfy. and eloquent OF their grief at his
loss. Men whom shyness and a sense
OF shady clothing kept from attending
their benefactors fune al, were repre-
sentcd by flowers In the great wreath
which cost pennies given at personal
sacrifices.
The Sunday school OF the Breakfast
Mission sent a spray OF white carna-
tions.
The Rev. Richard w. Trapnell. rector
OF St. Andrews Church, read the fu-
neral service. beginning with the eter-
nal promise, Il am the Resurrection and
the Life"
The life OF Neal Comfy as a "spir-
ltual landmark" was traced by the Rev.
G. Werner Brown. He spoke Of the dead
humanltarians genuine. old-fashiOned
piety, his unwavering faith which in
fluenced other men powerfully for
Righteousness in an age when many
were victims OF doubt and unbelief. Mr..
Brown told Of Neal Conly's gentle tact,
uufailing patience. and perseverance,
which won hardened sinners TO God and
right living He said that often at the
mission, when all others had given up
a man. despairing Of touching his heart,
Mr.. Comfy could BE- seen pleading with
the man. He refused to give up any
man. The power Of Mr.. Comfy, said the
speaker, lay In his complete cOnsecra-
ton to God and his whOle-sOuled devO-
ton Of himself and all he possessed TO
the service OF his fellow men.
Interment was private in Mt. Salem
Cemetery, but the friends OF the de-
ceased. both men and women. waited
outside the house for one last farewell
while the funeral cortege passed.
The pail bearers were James II. Stir
