vain hope that somehow some of
them might find ii. way into the
rotunda to see the simple funeral
rites.
But the little enclosure beneath
the dome could only hold a. handful
of the many thousands and the
places of honor there had been re-
served for the highest government
friends who in life had stood clos-
cst to Mr. Harding.
The Simple ceremony
As he would have desired. the
ceremonial: chosen to express the
nations last loving farewell were of
the simplest. The pastor of his own
church in “'ashington and the
chaplain of the House of Repre-
sentatives were the officiating min-
isters.
The brief srripturc reading selec~
ted. included the verse he had kissed

The thousands who could not be
given places in the funeral hull
were formed in line at a distance so
that. after the service they might.

lust reverence. as other thousands
before them had paid similar tri-

eagerness to pass in tribute past. the
coffin of McKinley. a. wide space in
front. of the capitol itself was kept
cleared of all except those who had
cards of admission.
Shortly after 9 o'clock the casket
was opened as it. lay among the
flowers in the east room and the
relatives and close friends paid their
tearful goodbye to the dead. All the
White House employee who had
loved him for his kindly thoughtful-
ness and his strong heart. flied

smile and with his hands folded over
the body in a deep repose after the
