The Death of Mr. Gladstone: Sunday morning, May 22, in Hawarden Church - Mrs. Gladstone listening to the sermon of Dean Wickham, 1898. 'Drawn by our Special Artist, Mr. S. Begg. At a quarter to seven on the morning of Wednesday, May 25, Mr. Gladstone's body was removed to Hawarden Church, where it rested until six o'clock in the evening. The church was open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. At six o'clock a procession was formed to Broughton Station, which was reached about an hour and forty minutes later. On the way Mr. Gladstone's favourite hymns were sung. Four parties of bearers, divided as follows - colliers, estate-workmen, tenants, and neighbours, carried the coffin.' British prime minister William Ewart Gladstone's widow, Catherine Gladstone, in St Deiniol's Church. Their 'country seat' was Hawarden Castle, near the village of Hawarden in Flintshire, Wales. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
