The New York herald., 1922-05-10

en- the terrace could hear the low voices
of the clergymen and the singing of the
quartet Under the trees they stood
with their hats off and, in some cases,
their heads bowed. Near a lockwood
hedge in front OF the churchyard steps
an elderly woman knelt. She was quite
calm. She said that 1t was of no con-
sequence who she was.
"A very good man has died." she
said. He has my prayers"
There was no show Of grief about this
funeral. There was no display OF
mourning black. Men and women stood
on the church steps and in the yard
chatting and smiling as they might of a
Sunday morning before and after SER
vices. One needed no credentials nor
introductions. 1t might have been the
funeral of the simplest farmer. All
this was in keeping with the wishes of
the man in whose memory the crowd
had gathered.
Four Red Cross nurses appeared in
uniform. Before and after came young
men wearing the insignia. OF veterans
of the A. E. f.. Several of the wreaths
that arrived late bore tiny American
flags, and six more arrived showing the
insignia of the American Red Cross.
Only members Of the family followed
the hearse to the cemetery
