King's Body In Athens.

New York Times 100 years ago today, March 28, 1913:
Lying In State to Begin To-day — Funeral to be Next Wednesday.
    ATHENS, March 27.— Escorted by foreign warships, the royal yacht Amphitrite, bearing the body of King George, arrived at Piraeus shortly before noon to-day.
    The coffin was carried ashore by the Princes and placed on a gun carriage, which was drawn by forty-four sailors to the railway station. Dense crowds, displaying emblems of mourning, lined the route.
    An escort of troops accompanied the gun carriage, which was followed by the members of the Cabinet and Court officials. The body was brought by special train to Athens, and was transferred to the cathedral, where the foreign diplomats had assembled.
    Prayers for the dead were recited and a brief service was conducted. The Dowager Queen Olga was overwhelmed with grief.
    The body of the murdered King will lie in state, beginning to-morrow, and the funeral will take place on April 2.
