Hi-ootu, Ike Officiating Minister. The funeral of the late Capt. Thos. L. Selgle occurred yesterday af tor noon from St. Mark's Lutheran church, and it wan tho occasion of on of the greatest Sunday gather ing of people over known In Char lotte. It wm a cloudjv cold and threatening day, yet for an hour previous to the time not for tho fu uoral there was a steady Mtream of poople ponring Into the church. When the cortege roncned the church that building was not only packed, hut people were mailed in the street lu front of the church. The pall bearers selected by Capt. Seigle some days before IiIh death were: Mr J C Burroughs, Capt H K Linton, Mr Darld W Oaten, Capt A O Brenlzer, Mr J II Van Ness, MaJ M I) I. Mc leod, Mr Oeorgo Krueger, Mr O II Duls, Mr V II Powell and Mr Mr Knight. Kev.T. H. Ilrowo, of Salem, Va., who was the former patdor f tho church here, and Kev.C. B King o Salisbury, conducted the snrvice. Thero was a great profusion f flo ral ofterings, conspicuous above all being apiece representing an arch, surmounted by a dove, a pair of gulden gates thrown open at the base of the arch, a tribute from the clerks of T. L. Seiglr. A Co. Other not.tl.le pieces were the following: "Asleep lu Jesus," In daisies, on Ivy and gerani um leaves, by Mr. Murphy; Initial letter 8, In white flowers, by Mr, and Mrs C.

Ho may bo said to have boon the first actual mover In the de termination to erect this now church which contains lasting memorials of his church love and taste in beauti fying the house of Cod. Realizing the weakness of tho congregation to build such a structure as the one con templated without aid, ho conceived tbe idea of soliciting aid from some of the wealthier churches of the North. Ou February the 20th If" 4 a day before leaving for market to purchase his spring slock, ho suggested to me to go w 1th him to sucure help. Iie foro leaving him at Washington he told me to do what I could, and en couraged me by saying that with tho help of God and tho congregation, he would seo that the church was completed. I!y tho following fall October Slst, Ileformation Day the conerstone was laid. It would take too long a time to give his history and interest iu the work till the church was completed. Ho urged haste in the matter for not withstanding his lino phy sique, his health was not good, and ho desired to see a com pleted woik during his life time. Capt. Seiglo was pious without os tentation. He enjoyed religious services wherever held, when conducted decently and iu order, but most of all did he enjoy wor ship iu his own church, of wl ich he was a constant aud faithful attend ant, even when not able to be pre sent. He was a firm, adherent to its doctrines, and would do nothing to j compromise the f::ith for the sake of popularity, yet he was charitable to- j wards all. His faithful attendant and personal friend, Mr. V. H.j Powell, spoke nlfectingly of the many pani!s and other scripture, and hymns the dece.-ised repeated during the long night watches of histerr.ble eickuess. thus how-j ing iu whom he was trusting. ( Ten days ago I was summoned to! his Ixslside, and found him waiting to receive me. Although harra.-s.-il j as he was with pain and nauseated j with medicine, his mind was clear and manifested that good judgm.-nt j which always characterized him. He said that his houao w as set in order, .both temporal and .-pit 1 1 - ually, aud hrt desired 'to depart h:o! I he with Christ which i far Lett, i. " He renewed his Vow of lid.-hly ;.
