CHAPTER XII
35/62

Eleven pieces of artillery were brought down from Alexandria and a schooner belonging to Mr.R.
Hamilton came down and lay off Mount Vernon to fire minute guns.
The pall-holders were Colonels Little, Charles Sims, Payne, Gilpin, Ramsay, and Marsteller, and Colonel Blackburne walked before the corpse.

Colonel Deneal marched with the military.

About three o'clock the procession began to move.

Colonels Little, Sims and Deneal and Dr.Dick directed the arrangements of the procession.

This moved out through the gate at the left wing of the house and proceeded around in front of the lawn and down to the vault on the right wing of the house.
