The funeral services of the late Professor James B. Thayer were held yesterday at noon in Appleton Chapel. The service opened with the anthem, "Integer Vitae," sung by the College choir. Following this Reverend Edward Hall read from the Scriptures; and the choir sang, "It Singeth Low in Every Heart." Reverend S. M. Crothers made a short address, and offered prayer--which was followed by the sentence, "I Heard a Voice from Heaven," a soprano solo by a member of the boy choir. Then the choir and congregation joined in the hymn, "How Happy He is Born and Taught." The benediction which followed was pronounced by Reverend Edward Hall.
The interment took place at Mt. Auburn.
