NORTH OF FRANCE, Nov. 17.-
To-night, within the battle area, the army pays homage to thc great dead. Where the guns boom faintly in the gusty, stormy weather lies the body of Lord Roberts, father of the llritish army. The Prince ot' Wales arrived to-day from London to pay homage in the name of the King. Prince Arthur oi’ Connaught also kneeled at the hier.
British generals. staff officers,
subalterns and those who duties are not vitally pressing elsewhere, watch the coffin, clad with thc Union Jack, and listsn to prayers, which are punc- tuated by the music of guns which mark this most glorious and impres-
sive lying in state. ,
At daybreak to-morrow our guns
will llre a farewell salute, and the last journey will commence in simplest grandeur. The road to the const will bc token. Along the road the armies guarding the Allies' lines of coiuniuni- cation will he drawn up in an endless guard of honour to that sea upon which tho Allies base their power. i From this war-stricken land, where l
