Newspaper cuttings concerning the funeral of the late Earl of Charleville, who died at Staten Island, New York, USA, aged only 22 years and 5 months, and who was buried in the family vault at Tullamore Church. The respect of the Charleville family and the grief of the inhabitants manifested itself in “a scene of mourning as is seldom witnessed”. It was observed that “without a single exception, the shops closed, and from an early hour in the morning the tenantry crowded into town”. The coffin was borne by the four principal tenants and two head gamekeepers, while the funeral “was conducted on the most unostentatious principles…[in accordance with the Earl’s wishes] …no scarfs or hatbands being worn”.
