TRIBUTE TO FALLEN.
BY TWO MILLION MOURNERS. TOUCHING SCENE AT CENOTAPH. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received Nov. 14, 5.5 p.m. London, Nov. 14. Two million flower-bearing mourners paid a tribute to the fallen at the cenotaph in Whitehall during the last two days. Whitehall presented a remarkable and touching Sunday scene, a dense crowd surging towards the cenotaph, which was embanked on all sides with flowers, wreaths, and crosses. • Two thousand poor placed one or two flowers only, side by side with the rich man’s elaborate offering. There was much comment on the Australian and New Zealand offerings, which still stand out prominently, and many affecting references were made in the crowd to the war comradeship of the Imperials and Australasians.—Aus.N.Z. Cable Assn.
