J. P. ALEXANDER Article Text: Fort Worth, Tex., April 27.--The funeral of Capt. J. P. ALEXANDER, Thursday, was largely attended, and was under the direction of the knights of pythias. The body was taken from the castle hall to the Fourth Street Methodist church, where Rev. J. Morgan WELLS uttered a beautiful and feeling address. On the coffin rested a floral harp with broken strings, a pillow with the letters F. C. B. and a cross. After the funeral hymns were sung by a choir, preceded by the Fireman's band playing dirges, the body was taken to the new cemetery for interment. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ TX-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
