C. Hampton The funeral of the late J. C. Hampton took place yesterday afternoon in Virginia. The cortege was the largest ever seen on the Comstock, every available horse and vehicle being called into requisition. During the obsequies the business houses, including the banks and brokers’ offices, were closed, and nearly all of the people of Virginia who could do so accompanied the procession to the cemetery or attended the services at the Masonic hall.
