THE KING IS DEAD - LONG LIVE THE KING Edward VII, King of Great Bnit- aim, and Emperor of India, died at Buckingham Palace on Frithy night last at 1145 London time. Newm reached here abqut eight 0’- clock. and-{the tolling of the church bel. announced the sad news over which the English-speaking world is now mourning. In a few hours his eldest survivmg son, George. Duxo of Clarence, was formally l modaimed King, as George V. . Albert Edward, Prince of 'Waiel,’ the eldest son of Queen Victoria, ascended the throne under the title ; of Edward VII. on January 22nd. 1901 after the death of his mother, 2 am: reigned only «a tittle over nine - years. His name will go down in; thory as “Edward, the Peace-u maker.” He is considered one of; the greatest Kings that ever sat} on the English throne, and euc-; cessor to Engnlamd’a greatest queen. ' "‘2‘ “I think I have done my duty, Were the .last words uttered by the ; King on the afternoon of his death. 4 This short sentence may be looked upon as the sum total at what makes success in all great men and _ women. There was «en in the: minds of many ~w1hen Albert Edd ward, Prince of Wales, succeeded his mother. Queen Viictoria..-as King Henry VII. The pessimism of all doubters was soon set aside and during his short reign, the King, whose death we mourn to-day, has won the confidence, respect and 1 affection of all his people. As ‘ Prince of Wales, he was long in the limelight. It is somewhat dit-; Ierent with his successor, George? V.. second son of the dead ‘King,1 who was born on the 3rd of J une,‘ 1865, and became Prince of Wales on the 22nd of January, 1901. He is to some extent an unknown": Quantity and .in these times of? political unrest in the mother Land it is to be hoped that those; who exercised an infiluence over his predecessors, may continue to assist in guiding the new Sovereign I in his governemnt of the world’s: greatest nation. “The .King is‘ dead, long live the King.” An impremive service in mem- ory cf the late :King, was held in the Mefhodist church on Sunday evening last. On the altar stood a victim: at His Majesty, which with tlw pulpit, w-as‘nappropriately draped in black. The text was' “Honor hhe King.” Rev. Mr. Wright syoxe of the Sovereign’s sudden and universally lamented death. All things here are oh‘angef'ul and passing away. He attributed much of his great- ness and goodness to the fact that he «had a noble atather and mother. His reigm was short, but on ac- count of the greatness of the Brit- ish Empire, his influence was v-astand worldwide. “God Save the King,” is sung in twenty dif- ferent languages. His’ noblest title is “Edward the Peacemaker," and (his benign influence in this re- gard was .felt throughout the earth. Also he had met his sub- jects as :a man among men, and had proved the common peoples’ friend. Just at this constitutional crisis in Britain. his guidance and, wisdom would be sorely missed} but if British sovereigns continued to exhibit the tact and good sense of Queen Victoria and King Ed- ward VII, the throne of England was likely to long remain, even in this democratic :age. His last words were impressively dwelt upon. Duty is the great word ,Which inspires the British heart. The Frenchman’s cry is “Glory,” but Wellington Havelock, Chinese Gordon, and many others had ‘made “Duty” their motto, and our late Sovereign {had proved himself .a true Briton to the last. Death 'ibrings the same sorrow to the pal- ace as to the cottage: we sympa- thize with the Royal mourners. In conclusion, he urged fidelity to the Great King, the Prince of Peace who never vacutea his throne. “God Save the Kim,” was tang as the closing hymn. MEMORIAL SERVICE.
