CARDINAL GIBBONS
LAID FOREST WITH
IMPRESSIVE RITES
Brilliant Colors of Priest
ly Robes Mark Great
Professional.

BALTIMORE. Nd, March 3l.-In
q crypt beneath the altar Of the an
eient gray cathedral near the bap-
tismal font to which his parents
brought him eighty-seven years ago,
James Cardinal Gibbons, priest, pre-
late and dean Of Cardinals in the
Roman Catholic Church, was laid to
rest today.
His entombment with his prede-
eessors in the archipiseopal office
among them John Carroll. friend Of
Washington and Franklin-came at
the close of a requiem mass. solemn
with the liturgy which has grown
up throughout the centuries and
perfect in every detail from the pro-
-cessional which ushered in the GER
emony to the recessional which
moved out of the church after the
sepulchre has been closed with a
marble slab.
Deep Stiffness Prevails-
At the conclusion of the solemn
service in the cathedral proper, at
tended by the largest and most not
able asemblage of ecclesiastics ever
assembled in America. there was a
brief pause. The pail bearers car
ried the catafalque to its niche in
the crypt beneath the chsncel. A
stiffness. deeper than all that had
gone before. pervaded the vast edi-
nee and was broken only when the
voice Of Bishop Corrigan, auxiliary
to the dead cardinal and now ad-
ministrator of the archdiocese, was
heard intoning the hnal prayers for
the eternal repose Of the dead pre-
late.
Throughout the impressive cere-
mony the body Of the venerable dead
reposed on a purple catafalque, vest
ed as a bishop celebrant of mass.
Upon his head was the mIter and
about his slight shoulders fell the
purple chasuble. Below the chasu-
BILE showed the red of the cardinal
ate. His feet were encased in soft
purple slippers, and at the foot
of the bier lay the ceremonial red
hat which now will be suspended
above the throne Of the dead prel-
ate. On each side of the catafalque
burned three candles, while a seven
branched candelabra of sacred sig
nincance stood at the head.
CoIorfuI Scene.
The pontifical mass OF requiem be-
gan at 10 o'clock. Long before that
hour thousands surrounded the
mourning-draped Cathedral. into
which presently moved the long pro-
eession of clergy and hierarchy
Up the broad aisle of the cathe-
dral to the sanctuary, past the bier
of the dead churchman,, the long
Procession wended its way as the
great organ pealed out the solemn
funeral march
First came the cross bearer, fol-
lowed by the seminarians from st
Mary's, who later sang the Gre
gorian chant. which Cardinal Gibbons
had done so much to revive. Then
came the priests from the Baltimore
archdiocese as well as the clergy
from afar-hundreds of them-all
wearing the distinctive garb of
their spiritual af1liation and pre-
senting a strikingly colorful scene
A touch of brilliancy was added in
scores of monsignori. each attired
in flowing purple robes and wearing
purple biretta. Then came the
archbishops and bishops. four score

Now that it was lost, the children
were in great distress, for no matter
