WEDNESDAY MOBBING, 00T. 19.1870
[Special Telegram to the Richmond Dispatch.
The funeral of Gen. Lee.
Lexington, Va , 2. o’clock, P. M., * )
October 15, 1870, via Staunton. J
1* a brtjdni'ttCKi beanytml day, in sfct
cuutrA'si to the. feelings of our stricken’
people, but lit emblem of the etrnal sun
light in which the pure spirit of our noble
cbieitain now basks.
At early dawn delegations from Staunton
and the surrounding country begun to ar
rive, and up to 12 o’clock the people con
tinued to pour in, until there was, despite
the fact that the washing away of the
bridges cut off many of the people who
would most gladly have been here, the
largest crowd ever assembled in Lexington.
All classes came to do honor to our belov
ed and lost hero. His old soldiers, who
followed him so cheerfully in the darkest
hours of the Confederate struggle; the Pro
fessors of the college, who he ever treated
with such marked consideration; the
Btndeuts, to whom he was in every sense a
loving father and an unexampled guide;
the faculty and corps of cadets of the
Virginia Military Institute, In whose wel
fareand succesfrhe ever manifested so lively
an interest; tb* sovereign representatives
of his native, loved Virginia ; the citizens
of the town county whom he honored
with his last days; in fact, every class,
young and old, rich and poor, white and
black, turned out to do him honor, for he
was the friend of *H. * With a
which would have been pleasant to the
great MffflTTMng, the following was ob
served as the ofdcr of the procession:
Music.
Escort of Honor, consisting of Officers and
Soldiers of the Confederate Army.
Chaplain and other Clergy.
Hearse and Pall Bearers.
General Lee’s Horse.
The Attending Physicians.
Trustees and Faculty of Washington Col
lege.
Dignitaries of the State of Virginia.
Visitors and Faculty of Virginia Military
Institute.
Other Representative Bodies and Distin
guished Visitors.
Alumni of Washington College.
Cadets Virginia Military Institute.
Students Washington College as Guard of
Honor.
At 10 o’clock precisely the procession
was formed on the college grounds in front
of the President’s house, and moved down
Washington street, up Jefferson street to
the Franklin Hall, thence to Main st eet,
where it was joined in front of the hotel by
the representatives of the State of Virginia
and other representative bodies in their or
der, and by the organized body of the citi
zens in front of the Court House.
The proeessiou then moved by<tbe road
to the Virginia Military Institute, where It
was joined bv the visitors, faculty and ca
dets of the Virginia Military Institute, in
their respective places. The- procession
was closed by the students of Washington
College as a guard of honor, and then
moved up through the Institu:c and col
lege grounds to the chapel.
The procession was halted in front of the
chapel, when the cadets of the Institute
and the students of Washington College
were marched through the college chapel,
past the remains, and were afterwards
drawn up in two bodies on the south side
of the chapel. The remainder of the pro
cession then proceeded into the chapel and
were seated under the direction of the
marshals. The gallery and side blocks
were reserved for ladies.
As the procession moved on to a solemn
dirge by the Institute band, the bells of the
town began to toll, and the institute bat
tery fired minute guns, which were kept up
duriDg the whole exercises.
In front of the National Hotel the proces
sion was joined by the committee of the
Legislature, consisting of Col. W. H. Tay
lor, Col. E. D. Pendleton, W. L. Riddick,
Maj. Keiley, Geo. Walker, S. 8. Turner, H.
Bowen, T.’O. Jackson, and Marshall Hang
er ; the delegation from the city of Btauu
ton, headed by Col. Bolivar Christian and
other prominent citizens; Col. C. S. Vena
ble, Chairman of the Facultv, and a com
mittee of students from the University, and
perhaps others. It is of course understood
that there would have been large numbers
of other delegations but for the known in
ability of our town, now rendered much
more than usually so by breaking np rail
roads and the washing away of the bridges
pn onr conptiy roads, and the short notice
tEri-tUcclUn Constitutionalist.
wbkhUie country had of the time of the
Gen. B. T. Johnston was in command of
the soldier guard of honor, aided by Col.
J. K. Edmondson, Col. R. L. Maury, and
Major J. B. Dorman. Capt. J. J. Wh te,
Professor in the College, was chief marshal.
It was remarked that the different classes
who joined in the procession mingled into
each other, and that among the Boards of
the College and Institute, the Faculties, the
students and cadets, the Legislative com
mittee, the delegations, and even the clergy,
were many who might, with equal proprie
ty, have joined the soldier guard of honor;
for they, too, bad followed the standard of
Lee in the days that tried men’s sonl.
Along the streets the buildings were all
appropriately draped, and crowds gather
ed on thes corners and in the balconies to
see the procession pass. Not a flag floated
above the procession, and nothing was
seen that looked like an attempt at dis
play. The old soldiers wore their ordina
ry citizens’ dress, with a simple black rib
bon in the lappel of their coats, and “ Trav
eler,” led by two old soldiers, who had thi
simple trappings of mourning.
The Virginia Military Institute was
very beautifully draped, and from Its tur
rets, hung at half-mast and draped in
mourning, the flags of all the States of the
late Southern Confederacy.
When the procession reache 1 the Insti
tute, it passed the corps of cadets drawn
up lu line, and a guard of honor presented
arms as the hearse passed. When it reach
ed the chapel, where an' immense throng
had assembled, the students and cadets,
about 650 strong, marched into the left
Aloor and aisle, past the remains, and out
uy the right aisle and door to their appro
priate place. The rest of the procession
then filed in. The family, appropriately
joined by Drs. Barton and Madison, the
attending physicians, and Cols. W. H.
Taylor and C. 8. Venable, members of
Gen. Lee’s staff during the war, occupied
seats immediately in front of the pulpit,
and the clergy, of whom a number were
present, Faculty of the College and Facul
ty of the Institute, had places on the plat
form.

The coffin was literally covered with
flowers and evergreens, while the front of
the drapery thrown over it decorated
with crosses of evergreens and immortelles.
Rev. Dr. Pendleton, the long intimate
-personal friend of Gen. Lee, his Chief of
Artillery during the war, and his pastor the
past five years, read the beautiful burial
services of the Episcopal Church. No ser
mon was preached, and nothing said be
sides the simple scrvlce.ln accordance with
the known wishes of Gen. Lee.
After the funeral services were concluded
in the chapel, the body was removed to the
vault prepared for its reception, and the
concluding services read bv the chaplain
from the bank on the southern side of the
chapel, in front of the vault.
The pall bearers were: Judge F. T. An
derson, David E. Moore, Pr., trustees of
the college; Com. M. F. Maury, Capt. J
M. Brooks, Prof. W. Preston Johnston,
Prof. J. Randolph Tasker, Professors of
Washington College; Win. L. Prather,
Edward P. Clark, students ol Washington
College; Capt. J. C. Bonde, Capt. J. P.
Moore, soldiers of-the Confederate States
Army; Wm. G. White and Jos. G. Steele,
citizens of Lexington.
There was sung in the chapel the 124th
hymn of the Episcopal collection; and
after the coffin was lowered into the vault,
the Congregation sang with fine effect, the
grand old hymn,
“How firm a foundation, ye saints of the
Lord.”
The vault is constructed qf brick,'lined
with cement’. The top just reaches the

“Born January 19th, 1807. Died October
“12th, 1970.”
The burial case is one of Fisk’s patent
metallic caskets, handsomely mounted with
silver and lined with white silk.
After the funeral the soldiers were
marched to the court house, and there
unanimously adopted the following resolu
tions :
Resolved, by the officers and soldiers of the
former Confederate army, now assembled ,
That we have followed the body of our be
loved General to the tomb with inexpres
sible sorrow; the last sad rites are over,
and as we venerated and loved him in life,
we ardently desire to guard his Sacred dust.
Here at the home of Ills adoption, in the
edifice reared by himself and dedicated to
the service and worship of his God, may
his remains be permitted to sleep until the
awakening which shall clothe them in robes
of immortality.
Resolved, That with the utmost deference
for their feelings and wishes, we ask leave
to present to Mrs. Lee and her family this
expression of our anxious desire that to us
and his neighbors and friends, and the
. authorities of his college, may be granted
'the favor and honor of preserving and
watching his sepulchre.
Resolved; That the secretary of the meet
ing communicate copies of these and our
former resolutions to Mrs. Li e.
And thus have ended the funeral obse
quies of the foremost man iu all the earth
Lexington.
The American Soldieu —Gen. Sheridan
—little Phil—writes home that, haviug
witnessed all the battles, and even the Em
peror’s surrender at Sedan, he has no hesi
tation in declaring that the American sol
dier is a better soldier, and better armed,
and altogether a superior belug.than either
French or Prussian, though he admits the
discipline and courage of the latter are ad
mirable. What does he mean by such an
absurd declaration? The “ American sol
dier” fought against terrible odds in the
late civil war—an average of probably one
to five throughout, and at its close the
American forms hardly equalled one to ten
when they finally laid down their arms and
surrendered to the immense hordes of Irish,
Dutch, Yankees and negroes, commanded
by Grant and his subordinates. But Sheri
dan’s assumption that the American soldier
was better armed than the French or Prus
sian, Is absurd enough, when every body
knows that nearly half of the time they
depended on captures from the Yankee
hordes for their arms, and when they final
ly surrendered, It was found that a very
large proportion of the artillery as well a's
small arms had been taken from the invad
ing hordes. It has been suggested that
Sheridan meant by the “ American soldier”
the hosts that invaded Virginia; but that
cannot be, for while every man in Lee’s
army was of the American Revolutionary
stock, Grant's hordes were largely com
posed of the outpourings of the Old World,
with even a large sprinkling of negroes.
{New York Day Book.
Grant and Gordonsvtlle.— The New
Gommei-sial thus discourses:
The President’s peculiar weakness this
season appears to be State or county Fairs.
His next appearance as a patron of agri
cultural implements and prize pumpkins
will oe at the Fair grounds in Frederick
county, Md., to-night. Several of the mem
bers of the Cabinet are going with him,
and vast quantities of chicken legs have
been forwarded front Gordonsville to ap
appease the cravings of such distinguished
stomachs. U is a peculiar fact, which
may be noticed in this connection, that
Gordonsville chickens never have any
wings or baeks. An innocent clock ped
lar from Connecticut once visiting those
parts, expressed his astonishment at a phe--
momeuon so remarkable, but was suddenly
quieted by the observation of a colored ca
terer, who said: “ I duuno see why de
chickens ob de Sons can’t be bornwidou’
backs, es many gemmen from the Norf
are born widon’brains.” It is important
that the President and his Cabinet should
understand this thing before they go down
there.
