Boy Scouts stand at attention as taps are sounded when Mr. Huntington's body is taken from the car which brought him from Philadelphia, where he passed away after an illness. This troop of scouts met the cortege at the gates of the estate, while the funeral engine's bell tolled farewell to the man who helped make the Pacific Electric railway. Photo dated: May 28, 1927.
