The day was observed by Franco as a day of mourning, and the procession (passed through sympathetic crowds on the way from Beauivais Town Hall to the railway station. The lighting services of France combined with those of Britain in doing honour to the dead. Huge crowds awaited in drizzling rain at Dover and Victoria Station, Loudon, the sad home-coming.
