The cross of Christ upon his breast and sword upon the American flag which draped his casket, the funeral of Charles a Andrews, who died Sunday night of Spanish influenza, in Great Lakes Naval training station. Was held Wednesday at 8 AM in St. Mary's church with a solemn high mass where ten 4° Knights of Columbus, of which deceased was a member, form the guard of honor around the coffin and honoring his memory as the first parishioner St. Mary's church to die in the U.S. Navy services in the present war.

Elder schoolboys, wearing the khaki uniform of soldiers were also In the cortège which met the funeral procession at Mechanic and Wellesley streets and proceeded to the church. The service flag now appears two golden stars.
Rev. Eugene Culhane was the celebrant of the mass at which the assistant pastor, Rev. William a Gavin served as Deacon. The church was filled with the many friends of the deceased and the funeral sermon Rev. E.M. Culhane reminded those present that in dying in the service of his country Charlie Andrews had but upheld the principles for which sacrifice on Calvary was made.
"The unexpressed sympathy of the entire nation." said the speaker, "goes out to every family of these who take the first sacrifice that the eternal principle of right may exist in the world. We know that America is founded upon the principles of fundamental righteousness and will live and that any nation, which is not founded upon the 10 Commandments, may exist for a time will fall to ruin as surely as the great empire of Rome."
Burial was made at St. John Cemetery.
