Judge of Probate for Kershaw County ENGLISH CATHEDRAL SCEfiC BEAUTIFUL MEMORIAL SERVICE (Continnad from first pags) lost a dear beloved friend—as he had. ‘‘Following Cburcblll came hundreds <of dignatarles in full robed, the ma jority wearing wigs. Then came the Archbishop of Canterbury, a tmly re gal figure in his Episcopal robes. “Again the great mass of people stood up—we had been sitting down after Ambassador Winant had seated himself. This time it was the Royal Family. The Queen of England Is quite the loveliest woman I ever saw in my life. She radiates charm and as she waikad down the aisle she nod ded smilingly to right and left. The King was with her and be looked very much of a man in his regimentals. He was quite tanned and a really hand some chap. Then came Princes Eais- abeth who wore her lieutenant’s uni form. ‘‘Following the English royal group came King Haakon of Norway, tbs King of Greece, Qneen Wilhelmina, Princess Juliana. Prince Bernard, the Preeident of Poland, Duchecs of Kent and Lady Mountbatten. U was "moet colorful, all of tbe men being in dress uniforms. "The service was most impressive and bad been so well plahned. I don't think I ever thrfUsd to Ameri can patriotism as I did when the huge choir sang ‘‘The Battle Hymn of the Republic.” Myself and my buddies felt the tears course dowo our cheeks ss we heard the words 'As be died to make men holy, let xu die tojagke men free, while God la marching on.’ And then the ponderous chorus ot choir and mutitude Joining in with 'Glory, Glory. Hallejulah.’ Words can not express the wonder and gl(H7 of it alL We thrilled In.the thought we were Americana. “Mr. Winant went to the lectern and rMd the lesson. Then followed the sounding of the buglers of tbe Royal Matinee who sounded The Last Post and Revelllee. Ths itptes were picked up and echoed and re-echoed throughout tbe vast Cathedral and uo into the lofty dome. It was hannting- ly beautiful. “Then they sang ‘God Save the King* and ‘The Star Spangled Ban ner.’ That ended Ae serviee and tbe thonaanda started to leave the church but only after the Royal fami ly had first departed. “As we came out of the Cathedral it seemed as if all the church bells In London were Bounding. Crowds such as I had never seen before were Jammed in the streets as far as one couM^see. It was a spectacle un- paralled In brilliance from anything I have ever seen or ever hope to see. “Tbe people of England are won derful. They virtually turned over their homes to ns. We might Just as well have been their sons. And this Is true of every American who has been in England. That they were able to do anything at all is a miracle for they have been hard-pressed. They are without a doubt the bravest people I have ever heard of. As the Yanks all say ‘They have real guts.’ Ybu people in the States haven’t any idea ot what the English went through during the years the Germans were showering them with bombs. How they were able to keep up no one can say. They really were super people. “And noW they are turning all their efforts, their energy and their brilli-' ance aa fighters toward aiding us in defeating Japan. They’re real peo ple—those English.*’ , SERVICE BALL AT ARMORY BRILLIANT IN THE EXTREME CamdBii OfficBT Bird Huntinf la M<m^« Battla was To The Creditors of The Loan and Savinfs Bank of Camdaat Notice la hereby given, pursuant to section 7871 of the Code of Laws of South Carolina, that July 18, 1945, is the final date for tbe filing of claims with the undersigned at his office In Camden. 8.
