Central .Metbodlat Cburch racked Wltb People toWllurss IheFuil eral Bervlcea City officials) At teud In a Bods. All that was mortal of the late Alder man V. T. Reynolds now reposes .,1.1 Riverside cemetery, that silent city over looking the rippling French Iirond. All ol yesterday, up to noon, the late residence of the deceased was visited by a large number of relatives and friends, who desired to take the last look at the face ol him they had known and loved so well. Long before 3 o'clock, the hour set for the funeral services, carriages were driven to the residence, and people of every walk in life were seen going to Central Methodist church, where the ser vices were to be conducted by Kev. C. W Byrd, the pusior. Soon the main body of the church was full. Then the gallery was packed and the aisles down stairs tilled with people who had known the dead man and wished to hear the last tributes of re spect spoken over him. But even with this, the great assemblage could not be provided lor, manv having to stand in the vestibule or be turned away. A little after 3 o'clock the funeral cor tege moved up to the church, the route having been over Woodtin, North and South Main, Willow and Church streets. At the head of the procession were car riages containing the following gentle men who acted as pall-bearers: K. A. Sondley, C. T. Kawls, T. H. Cobb, W. G. Corp' ning, F. Stikeleather, C. W. Ma lone, W. rt'. Harnard and N. T. Cham bers. Then came the hearse, which was followed by carriages containing the rel atives ol the deceased, members of the board of aldermen, udvisory bourd, school committeemen, and other otiicials and all members of the police force. There were about thirty carriages in the procession. The casket, which was a beatiful one with gold handles, and a heavy gold plate upon which were inscribed the words "At Rest," almost covered with the love liest flowers, was borne into the church and deposited near the pulpit. The funeral services were begun by singing by the choir. Mr. Dyrd then read appropriate scriptural lessons, fol lowing these with a prayer so earnest, so touching, as to affect many in the vast concuurse to tears. The choir then sang nearer, ftiy oou.io nice, winch Hymn was followed by Mr. Bvrd. reading a eulogy ol the lile of the lute Mr. Key- nolds. Mr. Byrd began his discourse by re ferring to the gloom which the news ol Mr. Reynolds' death Lad cu. ovo ".he hearts of the people of Asheville. He then gave a brief estimate of the char acter of the dead man, his business char acter, his progressive spirit, and his happy life as a husband and father. In concluding he said: "The lessons of his life are before you, and the solemn warn ing of his death should remind us all that death frequently marks as its victim the man who from a human standpoint has brightest prospects of a long lile. May God, through this dispensation of. His providence, so teach us all to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom." When Mr. Byrd bad concluded, the audience left the church, standing about the door with uncovered heads while the casket was borne back to the hearse. The procession then moved to Riverside cemetery, where the remains were in terred, the burial service being reud by Mr. Byrd. The lust and saddest tribute has been paid, and he who was known und loved of men is trulv "at rest." TWO MEM KILLED. Terrible Expioalon of au F.uitiiie In Alabama. Birmingham, Ala., Jan. 18.
