THE LATE EARL GRANVILLE
At an early hour this morning the mortal remains of the late Earl Granville are to be removed from the family residence in Bruton-street, to be conveyed by railway to Whitmore, and thence to Stone Park, Staffordshire, to be interred in the family vault in Stone church. The funeral will be conducted in the most private and unostentatious manner possible, for all the applications from the Royal Family and nobility to permit their carriages to follow have been declined. The interment takes place this afternoon. The Earl Granville, the Hon. Frederick Leveson, Mr. Fullerton, Mr. Stuart, and Dr. Vereday leave town this morning to attend the ceremony. The Dowager Countess Granville, accompanied by the Countess Granville, Lady Georgiana Fullerton, and Lord and Lady Rivers, leave town today for the Earl of Tankerville's residence, Mount Felix, near Walton-on-Thames.

The remains of the late Earl Granville were brought in a hearse, by railway, from London, on Wednesday last, for interment in Staffordshire. The remains were accompanied by the present Earl Granville, Lord Frederick Leveson Gower, and other members of the family. On their arrival at Stafford, at one o'clock, the funeral cortege was formed, and passed slowly through the town on its route to Stone. The remains were deposited in a capacious newly-built brick vault in a sequestered spot adjoining the old burial-ground consecrated some years ago by the late Bishop Ryder. The mourners were the Earl Granville and Lord Frederick Leveson Gower, Lord Rivers, John Fullarton, Esq., Viscount Morpeth, Viscount Sandon, M.P., the Hon. E. Howard, E. Stewart, Esq., the Rev. Francis Kitchin, and Edward Barlow, Esq. The principal inhabitants of Stone appeared in mourning, and every shop in the town was closed during the day. A very numerous concourse of spectators witnessed the funeral ceremony.
