standing on the streets at the
intersections were six mounted
police at each intersection.
The casket draped in black rested
on a gun carriage, drawn by 6 or 8
black horses.
The news papers have state that the
King of the Belfians and the Prince
of Wales would walk behind
the coffin, and we saw two men
dressed in black walking alone
and just behind the gun carriage.
There were a number of American
flags in the procession with those
of other nations: and of course
American soldiers followed their
flag. Toward the last of the parade
there were thousands of civilians
formed in great blocks as they
filled the streets for perhaps
half an hour – marching with
measured tread.
