Funeral of the late Lord Brougham at Cannes, 1868. 'Lord been buried at Cannes, a place for which he always had a strong in which he passed more of the last thirty-two years of his life than he did in England. He rests among friends and neighbours, who valued and appreciated his great and good qualities. The interment was performed on Sunday, May 10. A universal desire had been expressed throughout the district to give him a public funeral, but this honour was declined. He lies in the Protestant church, at which he was a regular attendant for more than thirty years. But although a public funeral was not accepted, his remains were followed to the grave on foot by many of those living within a certain distance of the Chateau Eleonore-Louise. Of the few English who had not quitted Cannes all were present. Before the conclusion of the burial service the Rev. Mr. Rolfe, the minister, pronounced a short eulogy, not on the great public works in which Lord Brougham had been engaged during his long life, but on the private qualities for which his neighbours had so loved and esteemed him. We have engraved a sketch of the funeral procession leaving the Château Eleonore-Louise, on its way to the Protestant church'. From "Illustrated London News", 1868.
