Funeral Services At t!u La It .'resident 1. II. Wells Funeral. Jiyen by a Sjeei:il lleporter oi'the Jiegister. Also Items itiul Comments froni Other J'apers. 'Hit re were a great many San Pete people in Salt Lake City on the day appointed for the funeral services of bio. Wells, being dclavedbythe necessity of meet ir.g fii.nds at the depot, I did not arrive until the services had bogun. Through the courtesy of Mr. Clone, of the ururt-r- , a suitable seat was found where I could both he ir ami see. It is always a strangely solemn thing when a great con-course of people meet together, for any purpose, but in the sea of faces turned in reverent attention toward the spot where rested all that was mortal of the noble dead, there was resignation, peace, joy. The second piece of music was be-ing rendered and the solemn strains filled every heart with that tenderness that is the fairest flower of earth, the bloom of sorrow. 1 low appropriate it was that at tli e same hour that these obsqmies m:re taking place every, church in Christendom was decorated with easter lillies, ami every choir wtis singing: "The Lord has risen." 'The decorations, emblems and draperies were white, the Symbol or purity anil eternal life, not the black decurations that are used be cause they carres pond with the void in the hearts of the mourners, black is the bodge of hopoless mourning an 1 how appropriate it is that Latter-da- y Saints with their knowkdge should use wh'te. Ts very coltin itself was white, and that was the color most prevelant among the floral decorations which were rich and abundant and the whole was more like a bridal than a burial. Among the stately easter lillies, and waxen beauty of the ca'.las spiral cup were several bun-ches of golden brown wheat bound into minature sheaves, to symbolize a ripe life full of good deeds. I felt some curiosty as to how bis funeral services would be conduc-ed. This man had stood high as a military commander, as a civil Judicial officer, as a High Priest of God! PRESIDENT W1LF0RD WOODRUEF. Made the opening address. He had known the deceased for forty five years, and in all things he had been true and faithful. The futher .remarks were given in terms of highest comendation of the goodness and worthiness of the dead, an etfo tation and a tes i mony to the multitude present, and a great flood of thankfulness to God for the light and gifts of the gospel, that robbed death of its sorrow and the grave of its sting. APOSTLE LUND Following, referred to the years he and Pro. Wells had labored to-gether in the Manti 'Temple. The uniform kindness and sympathy that Pro. Wells had shown to the many people who came there to perform the work of love for their dead. The principal of baptism and for the dead was the sweetest of all the gospel truths preached to him. Thegrsat joy he experienced in his labors, and the deep love and respect of all the people for him. He was filled with unusual benevolence and kindness, and his words were like viewing the sentiments of the people of our County. APOSLE F. S. RICHARDS. Joined in the general grief for this great and good man. Have known him for fifty years. He had been highly respected and beloved by the Prophet when he, Squire Wells, was not in the church. He lived from 1835, to 1876 in. Nauvoo, and had always in his official capacity dealt honorably by the people. As Moses-whe- n called to decide between the luxuries and honors of the Egyptians and the sorrows of the people of his own blood he chose honor with humiliation and thus did Daniel II. Wells when the people were driven out of Nauvoo. He spoke of his general characteristics, the different places of honor he had honorably filled. His military genius, his missions and his kindness. His reach and power of reason his in born sense of justice that enabled him to tread unbendingly the path of honor, without wounding any, or doing an injustice. He died the father of twenty-fiv- e living children and twenty-fou- r grand children, and was aged seventy-six- . Spoke of the glorious joy of the meeting that took place, no doubt, between the dead and those gone before. Choir sang: "Oh aj Father thou thut ttwellcst." TRFST. GEORCE Q. CANNON read a portion of section 76 Doctrine & Covenants, on the resurrection, and made appropriate remarks there on.

THE ANTI-MORMO- PRESS C)f LUah in speaking of the func-a- l, he Tt iunt says: The funeral ol the late Daniel II Wells which took place yesterday at the Tabei-nael- e, was one of the largest allairs i f ils kirn! that has ever been witnessed in tics city, or in fact anywheie elss. Lon before the hour named -r the time that the final seivice was to lie-- in the friends of the dead maiv began to pour into the buildinir. and at 12 o'clock the stucture was tilled to overflowing. But they siil! keet) on coming, and half an hour later the tdilice was packed to its ut-most capaciiy. It Is estimated that at least 1 2.000 persons were in attendance. The galleries wi'te filled to the utmost, and the body of the main building wp.s so crowded that it was almost an impossibility to get in, let alone secur-ing a seat. when the congregation was sented, President Woodruff of the church tiller-ed a praver lor the repose o( the soul of t e man who has gone ;o the everlast-ing sleep, and for the comfort of the mourning Iriends and relat ves that ate left be i ai. The addtesaes were made by Aposde Anthon Lund. George J. Cannon ai d die president. All the speakers weie very honest in their remarks, and the discourses were of a most reniatkahle character as regards feeling and sent - mnts, each man speaking as though he had lost the nearest and dearest fiiend on earth. The sermon ol Mr Cannon was especially fine, and the sueaker was to all appearances talking from the depths of his innermost soul. He paid a glowing tribute to the memorv of the man who had stepped behind the veil, and in a simple way told of the many traits that he possessed, anil ol the force of character that he. at times, mani-fested. The remarks of the president of the church weie also of a very appreciative nature, and the old man was very much in earnest when he spoke of his intimate acquaintance with the dead man who was to him a friend and a companion. He was a counselor when counsel was needed, and a help in the time of dis-tress. President Woodruff was deeply moved at times, and the remaiks that be made had a very marked effect in the congregation.many of them being moved to tears. When the service was ended the luneral train took up a march to the tomb, and it is doubtful if a larger cor-tege ever was seen in Salt Lake. The Raymond and the Utah coaches weie in the lead, and contained the leadeis of thech ;rch, while immediately following came the carriages of ihe friends and relatives of the deceased. A c ncouise of carriages followed, and by the esti-- I males given by those who know, it is believed lhat the procession was at least two miles in length. The usual sei vices said were at the c:tne ary, and a'l that remained of Daniel H. Wells weie hid-den from mortal sight forever. The Salt Lake Times speaks after this maner. There are few lives that have been more conspicuously associated with the history of an iustitution to which he at all times betrayed an inextinguishable alle-giance than that of General Daniel Ham-mer Wells. It is traced from storm beat-en Nauvoo that was evacuated in astorm of bullets to Salt Lake City in the of which he takes a prominent p rt from the verv first. His life was full of incident and adventure and never did he falter in the discharge of any commis-sion that was placed on hi u. Am 'iig others who have worn themtntlcs ol Salt Lake's magistry was ihe decedent who was called to the executive chair in 1S66. His adminisirationwas most event-ful otteas mayor w;-.-s extended through recurring elections until 1876 at which time he retired and devoted himsell i to various pursuits aud enterprises in which he was personally interested' He always took great pride in the city's growth and advancenient.and in bis death Zion sus-tains the lossjof one of its most loyal sub-jects. , mrki;t report. fri;iorte4 ly C Andrews.
