guns awoke afreSh our solemn sorrow.
The corpse was removed, a band of
music with mournful melody melted
the soul into the tenderness of tears.

When the procession had arrived at
the bottom of the elevated lawn on the
bank Of the Potomac where the family
vault is placed, the Cavalry halted,
the Infantry marched toward the
mount and formed their lines-the
clergy, the Masonic brothers and the
citizens descended to the vault and
the funeral service OF the church was
performed. The firing was repeated
from the vessel in the river and the
sounds echoed from the woods and
hills around Three general discharges
by the Infantry. the Cavalry and II
pieces of artillery which lined the
banks of the Potomac paid the last
tribute to the entombed commander in
chief 0 the armies of the United
States and to the departed hero.
