the funeral cortege wended its way along Childers and streets all shops were closed and the same mark of respect was offered by the proprietors of establishments in King William and ranklin streets indeed during tbe whole of the day most of ths shops in the city were closed and flags were hau masted At Port Adelaide also business ptsoes were partially closed and the shipping half masted their flags There were 150 vehicles in the procession some idea of the length of which may be gained by the fact that when the hearse was in the Cemetery the last carriages and the score of gentlemen who
