    London & Windsor.

    Various shots of the funeral procession of Queen Victoria moving slowly through streets of London. Coffin placed on gun carriage is pulled by horses. It is draped in flag and three crowns are placed on top. King Edward VII, Duke of Connaught and the Kaiser follow the coffin on horseback.

    Train arriving to station, carriage on platform - this is probably the arrival of coffin at Windsor.

Long line of foreign royalty and English mourners is seen moving behind the carriage. More shots of the foreign dignitaries walking in procession.

    Following the gun carriage is the standard party of the Life Guards. directly behind them is (in the centre) Edward VII and on his right is Kaiser Wilhem II of Germany dressed as a British General.
