succession
With Japan in disorder as the war was ending, Metropolitan Sergius's body was carried for the last rites and burial in a "honey bucket" cart, as he had predicted to friends some years before when he pointed to such a cart that was passing them. The metropolitan was buried beside St. Nicholas of Japan, his predecessor, in the Tanaka Cemetery in Tokyo.
