A large concourse of people attended the funeral at his late residence, five miles from the village of Otsego, on Sunday last. W. G. Eaton Post, G. A. R., of Otsego, came down with the
band and some fifteen members of C. J. Bassett Post went up from Allegan. The pall bearers were members of his regiment, and six of his comrades, with arms, acted as guard.

Andruss of Cooper, who was chaplain of the Sixth Michigan, officiated at the funeral, and spoke in the highest terms of Capt. Stark as a soldier.
