They waited for hours on that warm August day of 1923. Many of the Village folks were there and others had come from many miles around to Nappanee’s railroad station. At last they saw a black spot far in the west. The train was coming! The bugler boy stepped forward from the depot and played ’Taps” so familiar to the soldier boys at the end of the day when it is time to rest. This very special train was very close now and some of the men reverently removed their hats. The body of the president of the United States, Warren G. Harding, was being brought thru Nappanee on its way back to Washington, D. C. for funeral service and burial. . . . The shiny black engine was draped with streamers flapping in the wind. Soldiers with guns stood by the flower-bedecked casket and flowers were seen on other coaches. It was only a moment and the train had passed and the incident was part of history, lingering long in the memories of the people who were so eager to be there. It might never happen this way again. ‘‘Life is real, life is earnest, And the grave is not its goal Dust thou are to dust returneth, Was not spoken of the soul” Longfellow.
