* SOOT A 8 PPR gy Ty Seem td Hor y= Hundreds Wait To See Funeral Hundreds of spectators spent a damp, chilling night on London streets to await Churchill's funeral. Among them was Eric Wil- son, 24, of Vancouver, who in the following story de- scribes his personal exper- fence. By ERIC WILSON Written For The CANADIAN PRESS LONDON (CP)--For 17 hours I shared a place in history with hundreds of men and women who gathered below the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral to stand the last watch for Sir Winston Churchill. With another Canadian, two Australians, a Jamaican and a Swiss, I spent the cold Friday night in the street known as St. Paul's Churchyard. There was no floodlights illuminating the ancient cathedral walls, but nothing could keep us from sharing such a moment, I wore three pairs of pants,'walks to restore the circulation) three sweaters, a skiing jacket and newspapers to wrap around thei: legs. : When we arrived at 7 p.m. Friday, there were people lin- ing the route, sitting on camp stools or crouched in doorways. In one alcove huddled six eld- erly women. Nearby sat a young man, sketching them in charcoal. REALIZED DEBT Grouped around the space heater and seated on an air mattress, we chatted quietly. Somehow we all knew that we owed a great debt to One man, Churchill. There was a strange com- radeship among those of us who had choser, to pass this long vigil together. We shared our small provisions of apples, cheese and toast cooked on the space heater. By 2 a.m. Saturday, people were standing shoulder to shoulder. We had to spell each jother off from our vigil for long jto our numbed feet. tion. The number of patrolling bobbies increased, the St. John's Ambulance Corps marched smartly into position along the route, and workmen at 20-minute intervals swept up bits of litter from the streets. LIMOUSINES ARRIVE At 8:30 a.m. the first of the long black limousines drew up before the steps of the Cathe- dral. By 10 a.m. the last of the black-robed women and top- hatted men had passed between the heralds and into St. Paul's. As we stood silently before the cathedral, the first notes of the service came to us over the loudspeakers, The most moving sight was the vast and silent crowd, but to me the un- forgettable moment came when the strains of 'Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord" were carried to us over the loudspeakers. Slowly, person by person, our body of mourners who had waited together through the night, joined in the singing. Be- side me, an old man, who had waited patiently and silently for so many hours, wept quietly as we sang. Then this moment was also gone. NOISE FATAL A Welsh farmer collected $840 and hiking boots.
