This Drill Hall stood in Main Street East on the site of the old NZ Defence Office (between Princess and Victoria Avenue). This photograph shows a funeral procession about to proceed from the Drill Hall to the Terrace End Cemetery (see also 2014N_A1_009357). The funeral must have been that of a member of the Rifle Volunteers or Mounted Rifles because member of both of these Corps are present. The coffin has been placed on a vehicle drawn by four horses.
