A monumental catafalque bad been draped in front of the high altar, to receive the coffin, on which were laid his marks of honour. The principal of these were the large medal which had been awarded him by the Societe de Magnetisme of Paris, the scarf of the President of the Jury Magnetique, and the distinctive insignia of the different societies of which he was honorary president. The catafalque was ornamented by numerous beautiful wreaths, and by the armorial bearings of the Baron; the whole was surmounted with his coronet, and the simple motto “Receive and Conserve.”
Beneath the torrid heat of the direct rays of the sun, the mournful procession left the Church for the Cemetery of Montmartre; the chief pall-bearers were Mons. Martin, of Blois, and Mons. S. Morin, of Bourges. Among those present were M. Logerotte (deputy); Doctors Poirson, Detrieux and Piron; Mons. Bauche, and Mons. Gomy, secretaries to the ancient Societe de Magnetisme; Madlle. Huet and Mdlle. Veronique; Mesdames Turquand, Piron, Seurin, Levade, and Capitey; Messrs. Leymarie, Bue, Bes, Leman, Hallimbourg, Motteau, Rouxel, Hugo d’Alesi, Ch. de Rappart (the colleague of Herr Christian Reimers in the establishment of the Parisian journal Licht, mehr Licht,) Rosen, Lamperiere, and Passard; also several members of the Societe Magnetotherapique of Paris, with their badges of office.
A few words were said over the grave of their departed friend, by Mons. A. S. Morin, a former member of the Municipal Council of Paris; by Mons. L. Thouars, in the name of the Societe Magnetotherapique of Paris; by Dr. Huguet, a former president of the Societe of Magndtisme; by Captain Bourges, president of the Societe Spirite, of the Rue Saint Denis; by Mons. G. Cochet, Mons. C. Chaigneau, and Mons. H. Evette, all of the Societe Scient-fique d’Etudes Psyohologiques; by M. Lecocq, secretary of the Parisian Society of Sweden-borgian Students; by M. Leymarie, in the name of the Theosophical Society of Bombay; by Dr. Hebert as a friend of the deceased, and as president of Parisian mesmeric societies; and by Mons. L. Luffinger, on behalf of the Baroness du Potet. The remarks of Dr. Huguet were published in the Courrier du Soir, of July 13th, and those of several other speakers in the Revue Spirite and the Journal du Magnetisme; an address prepared by Mons.
