Attending many funerals on Sun <j
days, I am persuaded to believe j
that the \t'gm?preachers thenw -re
selves give them the greatest ncouragement.
In the hist place
too many Negro preachers think
the occasion presents an opportum u,
ty for their best preparations and j
efforts. The people are, of the .opin
ion that since the preacher is go- y
ing to put out the host there is in
him at a funeral, it ought be- held t,j
on Sunday. Theiv^ again as a rule ' h
every Negro pieacher who can
rent or borrow iT long tail coat is _u
coming to the funeral to preach 10 Jj
and 15 minutes sermons in the
form of remarks. Then every Ne
gro soloist who can warble a tune ...
*? 4
will be there asking to sing by re- ,
quest they suy. And since Negro ?
... funerals consume nearly a whole
* j
be held on Sunday, a day when |
there is no work to be done. Another
good reason for SundayTumorals
is that: the average Negro
pieacher doesn't seem to think
that htTTiasTuTClu sucevs?ft?T4uim
al unless sonfe members of the ,
family faint diTfitrg tin* service: :
sohiebody takes a fit before they j
stop. Now if funerals .are to "be ,
made occasions for fainting, the |
people think Sunday is the best
day to hold them so as to give ,
. those collapsing longer t.mc to recover.
To my way of seeing Negro [;
funerals, the way they are , conducted
by many of our Negro min* i
isters -needs as much criticism as
the Ion? delay far Sunday- on the
part of those responsible for the |
arrangements. When Negro funer- ,>
ahs eatv-be held in at least 30 mim
utes Ihe family will just as' soon \
have them on Monday as Sunday'.
It's that s;rcat "ado," in which the [
minister plays the leading part j
' that delays?them for Sunday. 17
the purpose of funerals is to console
bereaved families and bind up
broken hearts, it's a wonder that f
two or three don't (He during the r
. services. For some of these-?re- -t
powfred .-Negro -funeral preachers '
do not only preach the funeral of I
the immediate deceased, but all the
others who have died in the family
and those who^are irointr to die .
And until a dust is raised they can '
? never ttrrrt~the word AMKN! Aw- i
? ful for such an intelligent age.
When you compare Negro funerals ?
with those conducted among white people
it appears that our custom 3
is not far. from those indulged in
centuries, past'. A very "fine"resolu- >
thin?that?should be?apptuvcd by r
'""The-!colored ministers would he to
take less time in conducting funerals.
This thing of spending from a '
half to a whole day with one Ne-gro
funeral is next kin to a re flee- '
tion upon the men of the cloth.? 1
