Williamsburg (in Virginia) Oct. 19.  This being the day
appointed for interring the remains of our late beloved
governor, at 1 o'clock the church, college, and capitol
bells, began tolling; and the company repaired to the
palace, according to invitation, precisely at 2 . . . Then
the service began; and an anthem, accompanied by the organ,
was sung, conducted by Mr. Woolls.  The Rev. and Hon. the
Commissary then delivered a discourse, from Psalm xlii. part
of the 7th verse, put thy trust in God. . .
