Churchill's death, coming shortly after 8 a.m., was too late for the. Sunday morning papers, ritualistic reading throughout Britain. All they car- ried was Saturday night's bul- letin that Sir Winston's condi- tion had further deteriorated. At Hyde Park Gate, the quiet Kensington cul - de - sac where Churchill had lain mortally ill for more than a week, a small group of newspaper men heard ithe news shortly after 8:30 a.m. !

Here, alongside the spot where King George VI lay in state in February, 1952, the body of the man who rallied Britons to their finest hour in 1940 will lie in state for three days from Wednesday to Satur- day morning, before his state funeral in St. Paul's Cathedral. Many thousands are expected to pay homage to the best-loved Englishman of the century. The scene Sunday afternoon was surprisingly quiet. Only a red television van could be seen at the entrance to the hall, on the east of the great deserted minster. A solitary, impassive London policeman kept insistent newspaper men and curious passersby at bay. In the pale spring-like sun- shine the flags atop Parlia- ment's Victoria Tower and Westminster Abbey drooped sadly at half-staff, but many of the foreign and provincial tour- ists rolling up in chartered buses and strolling past the Houses of Parliament seemed unaware there was anything un- usual about the day, ABBEY CROWDED Westminster Abbey, however, was packed with sombre-faced men and women of all ages as Clementine Hozier were mar- ried in 1908--former Tory pre- mier Sir Alec Douglas-Home was among crowds attending a special service, and requested two minutes silence in honor of the great wartime leader. | There were no special serv- jices in St. Paul's Sunday, a verger said, but Sir Winston had been mentioned in prayers at the regular morning and aft- ernoon services. | A trickle of the usual Sunday) tourists wandered through the| imposing, dimly-lit crypt.

Canadian Prime Minister Pearson said: '"'We shall not see his like again." 'HISTORY'S CHILD' President Johnson, in a state- ment issued from his sickbed in Washington where he is re- covering from a bad cold, said: "He is history's child, and what he said and what he did will never die."
