than 100 mile away, to lay the "SI
lent President" beside his father and
hia eon, Calvin. The burial, simpler
even than the services, will take place
In late afternoon.
Mr. Coolidge died much as he lived
alone.
At "The Beeches' the home in
which he sought seclusion, that tree
famed dwelling to which he repaired
when the car. z of a nation fell from
his shoulders, the former president
succumbed to a fatal heart attack.
He had whipped alder fringed Ver
mont streams, alone, and quickened
to the plunge of a speckled trout.
He had heard, alone, the whirr or
the partridge as It left its tangled
covert, when frosted autumn leaves
called him to the hunting grounds of
his ancestors.
Alone at End.
So Calvin Coolidge was found, alone
In his dressing room. No one saw
the spirit depart, yesterday, after he
had returned from his law office. His
secretary waited below, . until he
should be dismissed for lunch. Grace,
his wife, who had taught the blind
the printed word, found him, as she
returned home from marketing.
Earlier in the day Harry Ross, the
secretary, had been called upon by
the former president to consider a
jig-saw puzzle, a New Tear's gift.
Mrs. Coolidge had been away, to
town, shopping, when the former
president died. 'He had asked her if
she cared, to use the car, relic of the
days they spent In Washington.
"It Is too nice a day, I'd rather
walk," she told him.
Home to Rugged Land.
And so, home to that rugged land
of his ancestors, all that was mortal
of Calvin Coolidge will thread the
hills and valleys that separate Massa
chusetts, a state that honored him
before the nation, to Plymouth. Ver
mont, In a motor cortege Saturday;
there to He with his father, John.
who swore him In by the light of
an oil lamp as the nation's chief
executive many years ago, and his son,
Calvin, Jr., cut off In young manhood.
Back to the thin surface of soil
from which his ancestors fought a
livelihood, after simple services in
Edwards Congregational church here,
will go the body of Calvin Coolidge.
Each Sundy Calvin and Grace
coolidge attenaea services at .no
wards Congregational church. They
left promptly, at the end of the ser
vices, before curious or others, could
Intrude.
Simple Music.
There will be an organist and a
choir, Saturday morning. Grace Cool
idge had been accustomed to add
' her voice to that choir, and found In
the recent Christmas musical program
an enchantment obvious to the con
gregatlon.
The widespread deSre of people In
official life to honor the former presi
dent will make the funeral a most
Impressive ceremony, desrate the de
sire to keep the services simple and
brief.
The presidential special, carrying
President Hoover from Washington,
will arrive Saturday morning and an
other special train, carrying congres
sional representatives and other high
officials, la expected.
Heartfelt tributes cam from
throughout the world.
The homefolk, back In Coolldge's
native Vermont hills, were shocked by
the suddenness of bis death.
PROBATE WILLS
