Funeral of Ami E. Swartz
The funeral of Ami E. Swartz, who died on Thrusday last, took place yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock p.m. from the residence of the parents of the deceased, Mr. and Mrs. Abram Swartz, on Western avenue, under the auspices of Newark Tent, Independent Order of Rechabites, and was attended by a large concourse of people. Rev. T. N. Madden, of Hebron, preached the funeral sermon. The funeral procession was very imposing, and presented a fine appearance, and marched as follows:
Marshal
Newark Cornet Band
Garfield Club
Newark Tent No. 84 I. O. of R
Viriting Brothers
Hearse
Pall Bearers
Relatives and Friends in carriages.
Upon arriving at the vault the Rechabite order formed a circle around the remains and the mourning relatives, and performed the last sad ceremonies, before consigning the remains of their departed brother to their last resting place. The ceremony was very beautiful and made a lasting impression upon all who heard it. Mr. Swartz's death is a grievous loss not only to the parents and to the lodge to which he belonged, but to the community in which he lived. To him, however, we are assured death was a release from the burdens of weariness, pain and disappointment, which the most fortunate of the living often find hard to bear. It was but the throwing wide of the pearly gates that open out in the joyous light and everlasting peace of eternal rest and paradise.
