TJhose who came to pay him homage found Carrollton, as rj town, in mourning. Business houses were closed Public buildings were draped in Mack Flogs w.-re at half-mast .Neighbors conversed respectfully about his long career, about his nearly ’.0 ».'fii s in congress, where he was dean of the house. Mr. Roqpvelt left Washington at fi p. m last night to bo hero for the funeral^ scheduled for 4 p. m. He was tq, leave for the east again, immediately after the services. 0 Pending the chief executive's arrival shortly before tfie fqperal, i, Birners foregathered at the Greene county 0 cousthou.se. where the speaker’s body la> r o in statr^ throughout the
