The Abolition of Sunday Funerals

"The efforts of the labor unions over the country to abolish Sunday funerals is being indorsed by many ministers of the Gospel," observes the Spring Valley (Ill.) Gazette, which adds that "This is certainly a wise move, as it is not only a great inconvenience to liverymen and hackmen, but interferes with the regular Sunday worship at the churches." It can be depended upon that it is chiefly in the interests of "the regular Sunday worship at the churches" that the abolition and suppression of other things on Sunday is sought, at least so far as the "ministers of the Gospel" are concerned.
