[edit]Funeral of Charles H. Williamson. The funeral of the late Charles H. Williamson, the well known photo-artist of this city, took place yesterday afternoon from the Church of the Holy Trinity, on Clinton street. The services were very largely attended. At one o'clock the members of the Brooklyn Photographic Art Association met at their rooms, at No. 179 Montague street, to take action and draft resolutions in regard to the death of Mr. Williamson. A committee was appointed to report resolutions at the regular meeting of the Association on Tuesday evening next. The committee consisted of Messrs. Frank Pearsall, Burger and Hannay. A guard of honor, consisting of Messrs. F. Pearsall, Van Dorn, Styles, Manning, Jones and Troxell, was appointed to act as pall bearers. The meeting then adjourned, and the members proceeded to the art room of the deceased, on Fulton Street, from whence the funeral cortege proceeded to the church. The procession entered the church at half-past two, the pall bearers bearing the remains, which were enclosed in an ebony casket, passed up the central aisle of the church, followed by the relatives and the members of the Art Association and friends. The funeral service of the Episcopal Church was then performed by Rev. Dr. Hall, rector of Trinity, and at the close paid a glowing tribute to the memory of te deceased. The casket was then opened, and the audience marched around, taking a last look at the deceased. This ceremony performed, the remains were removed to the hearse, and followed by a long line of carriages, were taken to Greenwood and placed in the family vault.
