The service at the house began at 1 o'clock and was conducted by Dr. L. H. Holden of the Reformed Dutch church, who is the family pastor. The service was conducted in the presence of only a few outside the immediate family. These consisted of Mrs. Sherman and her three sons and their wives, and of brothers and sisters of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman and their families. The service was brief. Dr. Holden did not depart from the prescribed forms of the Dutch church, which included scriptural quotations and formulated prayers, the service closing with the Lord's prayer and a benediction. Immediately after the last words fell from the pastor's lips preparations were begun for the removal of the body to the church and the procession soon began its solemn march thitherward.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2 - The true story of the bread in the friendship between President Taft and former President Roosevelt is here told for the first time. It is a story which adds an important chapter to the history of our times, for all the political annals of the United States there is no parallel case-no instance in which the sundering of a friendship was followed by such tremendous consequences, such far-reaching effects upon parties and party leaders and their fortunes, and possibly upon the control of the government itself for years to come. For a long time, people of the country have been asking the question over and over again, "What is the real truth about the quarrel between Taft and Roosevelt?" The question has not yet had an adequate, satisfactory answer. Various speculations and theories, or parts of the facts, have become current in distorted form; the actual truth remains to be told. This chapter of history can now be written in authentic and accurate fashion, because pers[[cut off]] at the effort has been [[cut off]] [[boxed off text]] -dent Roosevelt had kept hands off the ante-convention campaign of 1908.
