ancé I have never seen in ́s crowd before.
There
thousands of the roughest working men there for hours, but I naw none of them even smoking, I saw no one talking and laughing, but scores of women crying. There was bardly more sign of curiosity than of fippancy in their faces, In point of fact, there was nothing for them to see.
They had come to honour the dead, and never were dead more truly honoured. To see the placs all so grave and still along that extended line produced an indescribable impression. No man can laugh it the dead, but dead who can move a multitude in this way are few indeed, and behind the people of Hull one falt the nation was standing, for these are England's dead.
As the cemetery was approached the Out- crowd grew more and more dense,
side the gates the band and the others on foot stopped to let the hearses and carriages gaby. The band had been playing the 'Dead
·March,' Handel's great "Dead March,' the most majestio because the simplest of all dead marches, along the route, and it stood here playing still. The coffin passed slowly on between the dense and silent rows of spectators. It was infinitely moving. I saw the tears come into the eyes of many s man, The sun was getting low by this time and shone on the scene with the waning light of an autumn day dying in mist. The coffins were placed in the chapel, the mour- merk filing in, and Captain White, a veteran fisherman, now of the fishermen's mission, read the burial service according to Non- conformist usage. The coffins were then brne to the two graves and the service was completed. Captain Smith leaves a widow and four sons, three of whom are little boys. William Leggett leaves a mother and sister.

For a man who is in that state of mind a lunatic asylum or the editorship of a Russian newspaper would seem to be the only alter- natives. Don Quixotkoff de la Manche is the name given to Admiral Rodjestvensky by one German newspaper.
