Hi Everyone Here is the last of the report about the funeral of Abraham Mitchell. The distance to the house to the cemetery is only a few hundred yards and a large number of people lined the road between the two places as the cortege passed. There was also a large gathering in the cemetery. The only further religious rites were those which took place at the graveside, where the same ministers officiated as at the house. The following employees of Messrs Mitchell Bros. acted as bearers of the coffin:- Mr J Knowles, Mr G. Wright, Mr N. Ormondroyd, Mr J.L. Atherton, Mr F. Holdsworth, Mr J. Slingsby, Mr James Bairstow, Mr Charles Holdsworth, Mr S. Ormondroyd, Mr P. Wadsworth, Mr R. Briggs, Mr J Wright, Mr G. Fowler and Mr J Wilcock. The hymns sung were "Thine for ever, God of love", and "Now the labourer's taks is o'er". The singing was led by the choir of Annesley Wesleyan Chapel.
