Threat to the Republic From Don Carlos Rise

Remains of Dr Guthrie Interred in Grange Cemetery Edinburgh
The late Rev Dr Guthrie was buried Friday in Grange Cemetery Edinburgh alongside noted Free Church figures. Services were held at Newington Free and United Presbyterian churches. The long procession, about a mile, included ragged school and industrial brigade groups, local presbytery bodies, and city officials, drawn by four horses. About 15,000 witnessed the event. A wreath was laid by a ragged-school boy. The Duke of Argyll conveyed Queen Victoria’s sympathy to the family. A memorial sermon in London praised Guthrie’s life, recalling his Edinburgh Greyfriars era and his influence on the poor, in a tribute echoing earlier deaths of noted reformers.
