The Hampton Down Tragedy.
Interment of the Remains.

The last stage for the present in the Hampton Down tragedy was reached in the churchyard at Bathampton on Monday when what remained of the murdered girl Luke was given decent sepulture - at the expense of the parish - at half-past two. The remains, contained in a small coffin covered with a black pall having a white border, were borne from the skittle alley at the George to the lych gate on the opposite side of the road. Here it was met by the Vicar, the Rev. H. Girdlestone, and the only mourners were P.S. Edwards and P.C. Brunt, and those who had gathered out of curiosity and followed the remains into the church. The Burial Service over, the coffin was taken to a grave on the railway side of the churchyard next to a tombstone which reminded one of the tragedy on Claverton Down in the last century when Viscount Du Barry lost his life in a duel. The inscription on the stone runs: - Here rest the remains of John Baptiste, Viscount Du Barry. Obiit 18th Nov., 1778.
The coffin of the victim of the late tragedy bore on the breastplate the name and the year of burial - Elsie A. Luke. 1893. The bell was tolled mournfully before and after the service.
