The streets in the vicinity of the Sulli- van residence were crowded with people long before the hour set for the funeral.

He recalled the events in his honorable career, and set them up as examples for the youths of the city to follow. In part he said: We gather this morning to pay our last re- spect to one who has fought his good fight, who has finished his business, who has kept his faith, and we trust in the mercy of God he may receive the crown of justice as his re- o ward. We come to this house of God irrespective of religious differences and we lay aside po- litical differences.

The presence of the city officlals must be inter- preted as a sanction and approval of work well performed, of a duty well done. The presence of numerous friends testifies the appreciation they held for deceased. Yet there Is another motive for which we gather hee, and that is to show by our presence that we sympathize with his widow and bereaved family. From this sanctuary in the name of friendship and re- ligion we offer that consolation that friendship and religion bring to the heart made sad by the hand of death. a His Life Good and Pure. It 1s not necessary to go over the life of de- ceased. 'His history has been written in the past. You have heard of his ups and downs in the business world; you are all familiar with his serviee in the National Guard, in the office of the Mayor and in command of the Police Department. Perhaps to many of you his greatest service will be measured by his work as commander of the League of the Cross Cadets. You know well what he did there: how he fought for temperance and right liv- ing. In the youns men among youthere are many who claim him as an example. They could do no better. His life was good and pure. At home he was kind and gentle: in public he served honestly and well. He left undone nothing that seemed to him Hght. The clity has lost a benefactor.
