Other thousands came in the early dawn--families hud- died with children and blankets. Through the night, other thousands had walked through the Capitol to see the draped coffin and pay last res- pects to the fallen president. Po- lice estimated the total at around 240,000. At least 2,000 were waiting in line, hoping to get in, when the doors were closed to the public at 8:30 a.m. As, the hour approached for the president's body to leave the Capitol, the rotunda filled with members of Congress, sen- ators, governors of states and other officials. . It was a beautiful and clear. Members of the Senate filed into the rotunda shortly before Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy, veiled and dressed in black, came out of the north portico of the White House at 10:25 a.m. and entered a_ limousine for the drive to the Capitol.

As part of the security precau- tions, policemen were posted atop buildings across the street from the cathedna! Many of the black limousines bringing invited guests bore na- tional colors. They stopped at the cathedral steps and un- loaded ambassadors and other diplomats. The army band, its drums draped in black, formed on the sidewalk beside the cathedral. Also among the early arrivals at St. Matthews were Mr. and Mrs. John Glenn. ; There was a momentary stir as a window in a building next to the cathedral shattered and showered down on police and troops.
