Very simple services over the Boston and North Shore society Mrs. Charles Henry Bond of Bos- 
remains of Col. John Jacob Astor of 
New York and Newport, Titanic 
victim, were held last Saturday at 
Rhinecliff, N. Y. The chief mourn- 
ers were relatives, old friends of the 
family and servants of the Astor 
household. Choir boys from Trinity 
church, New York, sang. The ser- 
vices were held in the Episcopal 
church of the Messiah, and Rev. 
Ernest C. Saunders officiated, as- 
‘sisted by the Rev. William T. Man- 
ning of Trinity Episcopal church. 
The Rev. Mr. Manning had _ pre- 
pared a funeral address, but at the 
request of Vincent Astor the clergy- 
man did not deliver it. He used it 
as the basis for his sermon last Sun- 
day. Among the hymns sung was 
‘“‘Nearer My God to Thee,’’? which 
the band on the Titanic played as 
the vessel sunk. The church was a 
bower of flowers, many of which 
were from the greenhouses on Col. 
Astor’s country estate, Ferncliffe. 
A concert will be given this even- 
ing at Jordan hall, Boston, under 
the auspices of the Alumni associa- 
tion of the New England Conserva- 
tory to increase the Tourjee me- 
morial fund. Among the patrons 
und patronesses are Mrs. S. Reed 
Anthony, Richard H. Dana, Mrs. 
Wallace Goodrich, Mrs. Lester Le- 
land, Mrs. William Caleb Loring 
and Mrs. Alexander Steinert of the 
North Shore contingent.

most attention was the unfinished 
painting of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick 
H. Prinee, which is on the stage. It 
shows Mr. Prince on one of his fine 
hunters with a dog in the fore- 
ground, and Mrs. Prince in riding 
dress standing beside a_ favorite 
horse. Another very interesting 
portrait is that of Mrs. John 8. Law- 
rence, in an evening gown of pink 
satin with white lace and a cluster 
of pink roses on the corsage. Mrs. 
John C. Phillips, Jr., is shown in an 
out door scene, seated on the turf, 
with a lily pond for the background. 
Other portraits were of Mrs. Jacob 
Rogers and Dr. Franklin Dexter of 
the Pride’s contingent.
