Norfolk Landmark, Sat., Jan. 29, 1898, pg. 1

 
The funeral of the late Charles H. Broome took place yesterday afternoon at 3 
o’clock from the Freemason Street Baptist Church. The solemn services were 
conducted by the Rev. Dr. M.B. Wharton in the presence of a large assemblage of 
relatives and friends of the deceased.
About one hundred members of Norfolk Lodge No. 38, B.P.O. Elks, of which 
organization the deceased was a valued member, attended the obsequies and 
performed the funeral rites of the order of the grave.
A number of beautiful floral tributes rested upon the casket. Among these 
tokens was a large pillow formed of white carnations, roses and calla lilies, 
upon which the motto of the Elks, “Brotherly Love” was inscribed in blue 
immortelles. The remains were interred in Elks Rest, Elmwood Cemetery.
