Thailand Glimpses : Funeral procession of a member of the royal family. The princely personage died in 1939, and his body lay in state for two years, the funeral pictured above having waken place on May 14th of this year. In Thailand one spends practically a whole fortune on the marriage or death of a member of the family. By the comparative magnitude or gorgeousness of the function, or the lack of it, you could tell at a glance the state of the family resources, social position and prestige. November 16, 1942.
