Military Funeral in Dublin
--------------------------
Lieutenant Ewen Henry Cameron of 3rd Battalion Royal Dublin Fusiliers, youngest son of Sir Charles Cameron, C.B., M.D., was yesterday buried with military honours in Mount Jerome Cemetery. The attendance at the funeral was very large and represented all classes of citizens. A number of men belonging to the Royal Dublin Fusiliers bore the coffin from Lieut. Cameron's residence, and placed it on a gun carriage. The coffin was draped with a Union Jack; on top was the lieutenant's sword and cap. As the remains were placed on the gun carriage a company of the Royal Irish Rifles with arms reversed under the command of Captain W. M'Laughlin took up a position at the head of the cortege. The band of the same regiment, marching behind the gun carriage played Chopin's Funeral March on the way to the cemetery. Nearing the cemetery, the band played the Dead March from "Saul".
In the mortuary church the remains were received by Rev. W.J. Mayne and Rev. D.J.C. Hearne. The Lord Mayor, the High Sheriff, and most of the principal officers of Dublin Corporation were present at the Burial Service. After the committal prayers, the military sounded the Last Post, and discharged three volleys across Lieut. Cameron's grave.
There followed a large list of those who attended the funeral.
His name is recorded on the War Memorial in The Freemason's Hall, Molesworth Street, Dublin.
