THE LATE MR. MILLER MUNDY
IMPRESSIVE FUNERAL AT SHIPLEY

A large and distinguished congregation attended the funeral service for Mr Alfred Miller Mundy, held at St Saviours, Upper Chelsea, on Tuesday. The coffin was Brough; into the church half an hour before the service began attended by two of the principal mourners. A simple bunch of lilies lay on the purple pall.
Rev. Harry Price, vicar of Shipley and Cotmanhay, conducted the service, and at the conclusion Chopin’s Funeral March was played on the organ.
The interment took place on Wednesday afternoon on the Shipley Hall estate, the obsequies being of a simple character. The remains of the late squire were in a massive oak coffin brought from London the previous evening, and were laid to rest in a vault in a sheltered corner on the Mapperley side of the estate, not far from the Hall.
