of Magdalene's church thla morning
for a holy communion service.
The aervlce waa conducted by the
Archbishop of Canterbury who only
& few hours before had given a last
blessing to the dying king.
Flag at Full Mast,
Unlike the remainder of the
countryside, where flags whipped at
half-ataff In a strong wind, the
royal standard on the little church
flew from the top of Its pole.
A symbol of the last half of the
slogan. "The King la Dead ! Long
Llvo the King!" the standard always
flies at full staff, signifying that
the British empire la never without
a ruler.
The former Prince of Wales, now
Britain's first "flying king." left
Sandrtngham house by automobile
with the Duke of York at 11:10
a.m., (6:10 a. m., E.S.T.) for the
Bercham. Newton, airdrome a few
miles away, where they 'took their
plane for London.
The new monarch piloted the pri
vate ship himself aa the first inno
vation of hla reign.
The royal brothers one the new
king,' the other the heir presump
tive wore black overcoat and
bowler hats.
Edward, with only a few hours
sleep, appeared worn and tired, but
he raised his hat In acknowledge
ment to the greetings of tlje few
who saw him leave.
Cold Main Death Cause.
The late King Oeorge. four days
after he contracted a sudden illness,
succumbed at 11 :55 o'clock ( 6 :6fi
p.m., E.S.T.) last night to compli
cations arising from a severe cold,
bronchial catarrh and a heart "weak
ness a burden too heavy for the
frail form to bear.
Steeling themselves for the double
ordeal of burying the dead king and
proclaiming the new sovereign. Queen
Mary and her children wept and
prayed over King Oeorge'a bier as
the empire of 450.000.000 subjects
waited to do him homage.
After comforting his mother.
Queen Mary, In their hour of grief,
the 41-year-old Prince of Walea con
ferred with court officials this
morning before hastening to Lon
don to be acclaimed King Edward
VIII.
Respecting their privacy, the sad
dened subject and neighbors of the
bereaved family left them to their
sorrow.
Prom high and low, from all parts
of the earth, came messages of con
dolence. Broadcast were discon
tinued, and London crowds were
hushed.
To Rett Before Altar.
The court decided to transfer his
majesty's body to St. Mary of Mag
dalene' church here late In the
day to rest temporarily before the
altar, a did the bodies of hts
mother. Queen Alexandra, hi brother,
the Duke of Clarence and Avondale,
and hi youngest son. John.
The body of the late monarch will
be removed privately to London, to
He In state, probably In Westminster
ball.
Interment will take place at
Windsor. Just west of London on
the Thames, and seat of one of the
traditional royal residenoes.
King George probably will go to
hla laat resting place In a vault,
there beside the bodies of hi father,
King Edward VII, Charles I and
Henry VIII.
Here in Norfolk, near the bleak
coast 100 miles northeast of Lon
don, the neighbor subjects mourned
the passing of the country squire,
sportsman, church-goer and family
man they had known for years.
Elsewhere In the empire. It was
King George's devotion to duty,
which Inspired the British people
through the long, dreary daya or
their greatest war and subsequent
depression, which was sorely missed
in these daya of International tense
ness. The sovereign, declining gradually
for daya, passed on to a peaceful
end, unconscious in hla last mo
ments. Knowing that death was near,
the royal family remained close to
the sick room throughout the long,
sad evening.
Oeorge V ascended the British
throne as "the sailor king;" he left
It aa "the democratic king."
Unassuming to the point of shy
ness, devout and faithful In religion,
hard-working, devoted to his children
and home life, and with a dignity
relieved by the twinkle In his eyes,
he typified the qualities which his
subjects held highest.
He sought a position close to ttie
hearts of his people In a kindly and
quiet way; unlike most men, he
found proof of hla achievement n
his own lifetime.
Thla came atrongest In the deep
sympathy that was world-wide dur
ing hla serious Illnesses of 192B and
1920. Then huge crowds stood nightly
outside Buckingham palace and mes
sages and prayers came from remote
quarters of the globe.
"It waa an encouragement beyond
description," he said after hla first;
Illness, "to feel that my constant1
and earnest desire has been granted
the desire to gain the confidence
and affection of my people."
Trained First As Bailor
Unlike many British kings. Oeorge
V did not begin training in child
hood for occupancy of the thron.
He was the second eon of Edward
VII and was 26 years old when he
became heir to the crown on the
death of hi elder brother. Albert Vic
tor, Duke of Clarence.
Meanwhile, Oeorge had embarked
upon a naval career which kept him
almost constantly at sea from the
time he was 13 and which had car
ried htm from cadet-ship to the rank
of commander by the time of bis
brother's death. Thereafter hla dutlea
as heir apparent precluded exclusive
devotion to the navy though, within
two years after hla father became
King Edward VII, successive promo
tions brought him rank of vice ad
miral. Soon after hla father's accession on
January 22, 1001, Prince Oeorge em
barked upon an extensive tour which
took him to Australia, South Africa
and Canada. It waa followed In suc
ceeding years by a number of tripe,
Including one to India.
When be succeeded to the throne
May 0, 1010, at the age of 44, the
empire had a sovereign unique for
his first-hand acquaintance with the
world and the dominions he . waa
called to rule.
Stresses Imperial Sovereignty '
If England knew leas about the
new king then perhaps any before,
and at first drew vivid contrasts be
tween his general reserve and serious
aspect and hla father's winning per
sonality and gay removal of the Iso
lation of the throne which had
grown up in Queen Victoria's reign.
George V nevertheless waa popular
and had stamped himself as capable
of Independent thought. I
The nation had had a sharp sex-1
ample of that in 1001 when he re-1
turned from his colonial tour and
made a dramatic "Wake up, Eng
land" exhortation at the Guildhall.
From the beginning. King Oeorge
contrived by democratic participation
in many public events and by other
means to strengthen., the; crown as
an unifying influence, divorced from
domestic party strife, in the country
and empire.
Hla stress on the principle of im
perial sovereignty came to the fore
In 1011 when, with Queen Mary, he
made a notable visit to India.
When the war cast Its shadow over
Europe, King Oeorge made every ef
fort to prevent the- outbreak, ad
dressing personal appeals to the em
perors of Russia and Germany.
When these failed and hla own
country was plunged Into the con
flict, he Issued a proclamation mobil
izing the BrltlBh army and announc
ed an unwavering determination to
fight until victorious.
The ruler and hla family set them
selves to lending the royal Influence
