4287742 sides black edged folio with superb purple velvet binding with embossed Royal Coat of Arms in colour and gilt purple watered silk endpapers gilt dentelles London 17th May These sumptuously bound copies would only have been issued to members of the Royal Family & Household. For two days after the King's death 14th-15th May the coffin lay in state in the throne room at Buckingham Palace and there it was visited privately by relatives friends and acquaintances. On 17th May the coffin was removed in ceremonial procession to Westminster Hall and there it lay publicly in state for four days. Some 350000 persons attended. The interment took place on 20th May. The procession passed from Westminster Hall to Paddington station and thence by train to Windsor. After the funeral service in St. George's Chapel the coffin was lowered to the vault below. Besides the members of the king's family the chief mourners included the German emperor the king's nephew the king of Norway his son-in-law and the kings of Denmark and Greece his brothers-in-law. Four other kings were present those of Spain Bulgaria Portugal and Belgium together with the heirs to the thrones of Austria Turkey Roumania Servia and Montenegro. There were also kinsmen of other rulers the prince consort of the Netherlands Grand Duke Michael of Russia and the duke of Aosta. The American republic had a special envoy in Mr. Roosevelt lately president and the French republic in M. Pichon minister for foreign affairs. No more representative assembly of the sovereignty of Europe had yet gathered in one place. The exclusively military character of the ceremonial excited some adverse comment but all classes took part in memorial services and demonstrations of mourning not only in London and the provinces but throughout the empire and the world. In India Hindus and Mohammedans formally celebrated funeral rites. unknown
