Funeral of Mr. Ibo T. Heyen.
Yesterday morning at 10:30 A.M., the burial of the late Ibo T. Heyen took place from Zions Church on Aisquith Street. Despite the extremely unfavorable weather, relatives and friends of the deceased attended in large numbers. The staff of the Correspondent, comprising the editorial-, typesetter-, printer-, expedition- and delivery-departments, appeared without exception and gave their last tribute of esteem and love to their colleague who had passed on. The coffin was richly adorned with japonicas, immortelles and other flowers and was carried into the church by the following gentlemen who served as pallbearers: Chas. T. Maddox, ex-Postmaster; J. F. Parrott, Post Office Secretary; Dr. J. Reibetantz, co-editor of the Correspondent; H. Rodenmeyer, forman of the printshop; M. G. Cohen, Abraham Rosenfeld, W. G. Wroth and Geo. Savage.
The coffin, supplied by the establishment of Mr. Joh. J. Rodenmeyer, corner of Greenmount Avenue and Monument Street, was covered with black cloth, richly covered with silver and carried a plate with the inscription:
Ibo T. Heyen,
born March 2, 1810,
died December 21, 1875.
As the funeral procession approached the church, the tower bell rang and a funeral dirge sounded from the organ until the coffin had been placed in front of the altar and opened. Rev. Gotthold Neeff, the preacher of Zions Church, then dedicated a long eulogy to the deceased, in which he paid a warm tribute to his noble life and his virtues, described his effectiveness as a person in poignant words, and briefly outlined the deceased's varied activities.
He also dedicated words of consolation to the wife and daughter staying in Europe, who the deceased dearly loved and for whom the death of the husband and father was a severe blow, but which they saw as an act of providence with Christian submission to the Lord's will and to be endured. After the preacher ended, many of those present approached the coffin again and gave one last look at the body of their friend who had been so dear to them in life.
The coffin was then closed and amid organ music and tolling of the tower bell, carried back to the hearse. The funeral procession then made its way to Greenmount Cemetery, where the final burial took place after a prayer from the preacher. Hearses and carriages (25 in number) were provided by the Ward brothers, N. Calvert Street. (Poem omitted).
