Meridel LeSeur was there on that steamy July afternoon in 1934 as the funeral cortege moved slowly through downtown Minneapolis. "We passed through six blocks of tenements, through a sea of grim faces, and there was not a sound. There was a curious shuffle of thousands of feet, without drum or bugle, in ominous silence, not heavy as the military, but very light, exactly with the heart beat," LeSeur recalled.
