More than 600,000 people marched past Lenin's remains. On the day of the funeral, at 2 p.m., the factories and trains stopped for five minutes. Our third photograph shows the tomb, on which the inscription “Lenin” is read in Russian. We see on the fourth, from left to right: Kalenin, Rykoff, Kameneff, Tomsky and Bukharin.
