The president and cabinet ministers
took their seats in the official tribune

palms and flowers the bust of Victor
Hugo, by the celebrated sculptor. Da
vid D'Arrgers. and this was the symbol
to which the eyes of the thousands of
spectators assembled withlrg the vast

rel wreath attached to the surround
ing walls by light garlands of foliage.
