---
The body of Tyrell W. Cavendish, who lost his life when the Titanic sank, will be cremated at North Bergen, N. J., today. Funeral services will be conducted by the Rev. Frank F. German, rector of the Episcopal Church at Mamaroneck, N. Y.

Mr. Cavendish was 36 years old and resided at Little Onn Hall, Stafford, England. In December, 1906, Mr. Cavendish married Miss Julia Florence Siegel, only daughter of Mr. Henry Siegel of this
city. Their two children, Henry Siegel Cavendish and Geoffrey Manners Cavendish, are in England, where Mr. Siegel intends to take his daughter, Mrs. Cavendish, in a few days.

Mrs. Cavendish and her maid were assisted into one of the lifeboats by Mr. Cavendish, who said: "I will not leave the ship while there is a woman on board."
