The mourners and band and drummers with drums muffled will have formed up in two ranks at two paces interval and eight paces from each other, facing inwards, through which the firing party will pass in the following order:--Firing party; band and drummers (moving in their proper formation as soon as the firing party has passed); body and bearers; chief mourners (if any); mourners. The latter will move in fours made up by two and two, front and rear rank, commencing on the inner flank. The drums will play the “Dead March” when about 300 yards from the hospital, and continue for such a distance as the officer in charge may have ordered before marching off. When the drums cease playing the firing party will break into “quick time,” the remainder conforming. Rifles will be carried at the trail, butt leading, sling uppermost. During the march arms may be changed, but the party will not be allowed to “march at ease.” When at a convenient distance from the cemetery the party will break into “slow time,” the men will “reverse arms,” and the band will play. When the head of the procession arrives near the ground where it is to meet the clergyman, the ranks will open out to six paces distance and the serjeant will give the command HALT. INWARDS--TURN (the ranks will face each other). REST ON YOUR ARMS--REVERSED. STAND AT EASE. (The whole working by the corporal, who will perform the exercise.) The coffin will now be removed by the bearers and carried feet-end foremost, and placed on the right of the grave. The flag, head-dress and side-arms will then be removed and the coffin lowered. The mourners will file round the grave, halt and turn inwards without word of command. The firing party will follow the mourners, the serjeant giving the command ATTENTION. REVERSE--ARMS. RANKS, RIGHT AND LEFT--TURN. SLOW--MARCH. And on arriving near the grave HALT. LEFT--TURN. REST ON YOUR ARMS--REVERSED. STAND AT EASE. When the service commences the head-dress will be removed (except firing party) and replaced when the service is ended, previous to the volleys being fired. At the end of the service the serjeant will give:--Firing party ATTENTION. PRESENT--ARMS. SLOPE--ARMS. VOLLEYS (with blank cartridges)--LOAD. PRESENT. FIRE. A second and third volley will be fired. The serjeant will then give UNLOAD. FIX--BAYONETS. SLOPE--ARMS. PRESENT--ARMS. SLOPE--ARMS. FORM--FOURS. RIGHT. QUICK--MARCH. The band will lead, followed by the firing party and mourners, who will form fours as they march off without word of command. Bayonets will be unfixed after leaving the place of burial at the discretion of the officer in charge. The band is not to play, nor the drums to beat, until the party is entirely clear of the burial ground.
