QUEEN MOTHER ALEXANDRA IS LAID AT REST Winter Covers Casket With Fleecy Blanket As It Is Taken to the Abbey NATION Body Will Be Buried in Pri- vate Royal Chapel at Windsor Tomorrow London, Nov. 27.—()—Winter, reaching out an icy hand, laid a tri- bute on the bier of the gentle Alex- andra, England’s queen mother, to- day, covering her casket with a fleecy Dlanket of snow it was trundled on a gun carriage from the chapel royal in St. James palace to West: minster Abbey, where the simp of funeral services was held. Thus the sea kin, daughter de- parted from the ci of her udopt- ed empire as she entered it, for Iso falling qn that dis- when she came from Denn d Vil. Close behind the caske jong with bowed head, ¢ 5 King of England, muffled in d wearing the plumed arshal “Abreast behind this solitary figure came the monarchs of Belgium, Nor- y and Denmark, and back of them Prince of Wales and his brothers and the crown princes of Rumania, Sweden, Denmark, Norw: and Bel- um, with Lord Lacelles and other nobles who have ried into the famil In Dress Uniforms ray coats these royal fig- the dress uniforms of th hold either in the arm, t Britain, but of the uniforms only the gold braided hats ds th ustere shades of the funeral procession, There was but a single other spot of color Alexan- dra’s own royal standard, with which the casket was draped. At the boom of a gun marking 11 o'clock, the casket was brought from the chapel r and placed on the Xame gun carriage w the fun- of Queen Victo and Edward The equerries of her ma, y took their places on the carriage and at a word of command the escorting npanies of guards fell into step; King George emerged from the palac snd the procession began its measur- ed march through the Mall, Trafal- sar Square, and White Hall, Handkerchiefs found the eyes of! many and sobs wete heard in the ranks of the thousaands who had waited for hours in the cold and wet,! for among them were some who had seen Alexandra pass up and down the same streets under clearer skies and in happier circumstances. ES Placed On Catafalque The soft, slow music, to the cadence of which the procession moved, was stopped as the gun carriage reached the entrance of the abbey, and the coffin was carried into the darkened building on the broad shoulders of cight guardsmen who placed it upon a catafalque, before the high altar. In the abbey waiting the arrival of the procession was Queen Mary, dressed in deep black, her face cov- ered with a heavy veil, and around her were the queens of Spain, Nor- and Belgium, Princess Mary, the ss of York’ and several scores of relatives. The qucen and her par- ty had driven directly from the pul- ace, arriving more than half an hour Wefore the funeral procession. Queen Mary Visibly Affected Queen Mary was visibly affected throughout the service, She raised her handkerchief to her eyes when the casket was brought into the ab- bey and several times found it im- possible to continue in the singing of the hymns. ‘The Archbishop of Canterbury read the service, the lessons and the col- lect, before which the hymns were sung. A short blessing, as the whole congregation knelt, followed the last hymn and the quiet funeral — rit were ended with “God Save the King. ‘The king left his place, followed “by the queen and other royalties, to the strains of Chopin's funeral march, and after their withdrawal the congregation departed silently, leaving the casket on the catafalque “alone before the altar of the great church. As the building was emptied the sun suddenly shone forth, its rays streaming through the windows and playing over the bier. Under ures wor ranks they or navy of any Pay Tribute At 1 p.m, the doors of the Abbey were again opened and a long pro- xession began of those of the gen- ‘eral public desirous of paying tribute to the dead queen for the last time. The coffin, after remaining in the * ubbey all of tonight, will be carried tomorrow morning to Windsor for burial in the private royal chapel.
