EXTRACTS
FROM THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS GOVERNING THE RETURN OF CERTIFICATES OF DEATH
A physician or registered hospital medical officer shall forthwith, after the death of a person whom he has at- tended during his last illness, at the request of an under- taker or other authorized person or of any member of the family of the deceased, furnish for registration a standard certificate of death, stating to the best of his knowledge and belief the name of the deceased, his supposed age, the disease of which he died (defined so that it can be clas- sified under the international classification of causes of death), where same was contracted, the duration of his last illness, when last seen alive by the physician or officer and the date of his death. . . .- General Laws, Chapter 46, Section 9.
No undertaker or other person shall bury or other- wise dispose of a human body in a town, or remove there- from a human body which has not been buried, until he has received a permit from the board of health . . . , or if there is no such board, from the clerk of the town where the person died; and no undertaker or other person shall exhume a human body and remove it from a town, or from one cemetery to another, until he has received a permit from the board of health . . . or from the clerk of the town where the body is buried. No such permit shall be Issued until there shall have been delivered to such board, . . . or clerk .... a satisfactory written statement containing the facts required by law to be returned and recorded, which shall be accompanied . .. by a satisfac- tory certificate of the attending physician, if any, as required by law, or in lieu thereof a certificate as herein- after provided. If there is no attending physician, or If, for sufficient reasons, his certificate cannot be obtained early enough for the purpose, or Is insufficient, a physi- cian who is a member of the board of health, or employed by It or by the selectmen for the purpose, shall upon application make the certificate required of the attending physician. If death is caused by violence, the medical examiner shall make such certificate. The board of health or its agent, upon receipt of such statement and certificate, shall forthwith countersign it and transmit it to the clerk of the town for registration. The per- son to whom the permit is so given and the physician certifying the cause of death shall thereafter furnish for registration any other necessary Information which can be obtained as to the deceased, or as to the man- ner or cause of the death, which the clerk or regls- trar may require .- General Laws, Chap 114, Sec. 45 @8 amended.
Medical examiners shall make examination upon the view of the dead bodies of only such persons as are sup- posed to have died by violence. If a medical examiner bas notice that there is within his county the body of such a person, he shall forthwith go to the place where the body lies and take charge of the same. . . . General Laws, Chap, 38, Bec. 6.
. . He shall in all cases certify to the town clerk or registrar in the place where the deceased died his name and residence, if known; otherwise a description as full as may be, with the cause and manner of death .- General Laws, Chap. 38, Seo. 7.
RULES OF PRACTICE
The fulfilment of the purpose of these laws calls for the observance of the following rules of practice:
(1) Attending physicians will certify to such deaths only as those of persons to whom they have given bedside care during a last illness from disease unrelated to any form of injury.
(2) Board of Health physicians will certify to such deaths only as those of persons who, though disabled by recognized disease unrelated to any form of injury, have died without recent medical attendance or whose physi- cian is absent from home when the certificate of death is needed.
(3) Medical Examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths supposably due to violence. These include not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (in- cluding resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemi- eal (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following abortion, but also deaths from disease re- sulting from Injury or Infection related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.
STATEMENT OF CAUSE OF DEATH
Medical Examiners in certifying to a death will state the cause and manner thereof, and will specify: (1) Under cause, the nature of an injury and of its consequences; and (2) under manner, the mode of its production together with the circumstances when these are known. For ex- ample: "Compound fracture of the femur with ensuing septicemia (gas bacillus) caused by a steam railway accident." "Pistol shot wound of the chest with associated hemorrhage, homicidal." "Asphyxiation by suspension, suicidal." "Syncope while under the influence of ether administered as a surgical anæsthetic." "Fracture of the skull with associated internal injury sustained under cir- cumstances unknown."
If investigation shows the death to have been due to disease, specify: (1) Under cause, its known or presumable nature; and (2) under manner, indicate the circumstances leading to medico-legal inquiry. For example: "Hemor- rhage spontaneous, of the brain (basal ganglia) (found dead in bed)." "Heart disease, presumably coronary sclerosis. (Sudden death.)"

REVISED UNITED STATESSTANDARD CERTIFICATE OF DEATH
(Approved by U. S. Census and American Public Health Association)
Statement of occupation .- Precise statement of occupation is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known. The question applies to cach and every person, irre- spective of age. For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Com- positor, Architect, Locomotive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fire- man, etc. But in many cases, especially in industrial employments, it is necessary to know (a) the kind of work and also (b) the nature of the business or industry, and therefore an additional line is provided for the latter statement; it should be used only when needed. As examples: (a) Spinner, (b) Cotton mill; (a) Salesman, (b) Grocery; (a) Foreman, (b) Automobile factory. The material worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Laborer," "Fore- man," "Manager," "Dealer," etc., without more precise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborer-Coal mine, etc. Women at home, who are engaged in the duties of the household ory (not paid Housekeepers who receive a definite salaty), may be entered as House- wife, Housework, or At home, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home. Care should be taken to report specifically the occupations of persons engaged in domestic service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, etc. If the occupation has been changed or given up on account of the DISEASE CAUSING DEATH, state occupa- tion at beginning of illness. If retired from business, that fact may be indicated thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have no occupation whatever, write None.
Statement of cause of death .- Name, first, the Disease Causing Death (the primary affection with respect to time and causation), using always the same accepted term for the same disease. Exam- ples: Cerebrospinal fever (the only definite synonym is "Epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis"); Diphtheria (avoid use of "Croup"); Typhoid fever (never report "Typhoid pneumonia"); Lobar pneu- monia; Bronchopneumonia ("Pneumonia," unqualified, is indefinite); Tuberculosis of lungs, meninges, peritoneum, etc., Carcinoma, Sarcoma, etc., of. .. (name origin; "Cancer" is less definite; avoid use of "Tumor" for malignant neoplasms); Measles; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular heart disease; Chronic interstitial nephritis, etc. The contributory (secondary or intercurrent) affection need not be stated unless important. Example: Measles (disease causing death), 29 ds .; Bronchopneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symptoms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "Anemia" (merely symp- tomatic), "Atrophy," "Collapse," "Coma," "Convulsions," "Debility" ("Congenital," "Senile," etc.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure." "Hemorrhage," "Inanition," "Marasmus," "Old age," "Shock," "Uremia," "Weakness," etc., when a definite disease can be ascertained as the cause. Always qualify all diseases resulting from childbirth or miscarriage, as "PUERPERAL septicemia," "PUERPERAL peritonitis," etc.
State cause for which surgical operation was undertaken.
(Recommendations on statement of cause of death approved by Com- mittee on Nomenclature of the American Medical Association.)
Bronchopneumonia: If primary cause, write the word "primary"; if secondary, give primary cause.
Certificates will be returned for additional information which give any of the following diseases, without explanation, as the sole cause of death: Abortion, cellulitis, childbirth, convulsions, hemorrhage, gangrone, gastritis, erysipelas, menin- gitis, miscarriage, necrosis, peritonitis, phlebitis, pyemia, septicemia, tetanus.
EXTRACTS
FROM THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
GOVERNING THE
RETURN OF CERTIFICATES OF DEATH
A physician or registered hospital medical officer shall forth- with, after the death of a person whom he has attended during his last illness, at the request of an undertaker or other authorized person or of any member of the family of the deceased, furnish for registra- tion a standard certificate of death, stating to the best of his knowl- edge and belief the name of the deceased, his supposed age, the disease of which he died, defined as required by section one, where same was contracted, the duration of his last illness, when last seen alive by the physician or officer and the date of his death ..... Gen. Laws, Chap. 46, Sec. 9.
No undertaker or other person shall bury or otherwise dispose of a human body in a town, or remove therefrom a human body which has not been buried, until he has received a permit from the board of health or its agent appointed to issue such permits, or if there is no such board, from the clerk of the town where the person died; and no undertaker or other person shall exhume a human body and remove it from a town, or from one cemetery to another, until he has received a permit from the board of health or its agent aforesaid or from the clerk of the town where the body is buried. No such permit shall be issued until there shall have been delivered to such board, agent or clerk, as the case may be, a satisfactory written statement containing the facts required by law to be returned and recorded, which shall be accompanied, in case of an original interment, by a satisfactory certi- ficate of the attending physician, if any, as required by law, or in lieu thereof a certificate as hereinafter provided. If there is no attending physician, or if, for sufficient reasons, his certificate cannot be ob- tained early enough for the purpose, or is insufficient, a physician who is a member of the board of health, or employed by it or by the selectmen for the purpose, shall upon application make the certificate required of the attending physician. If death is caused by violence, the medical examiner shall make such certificate. If the death certi- ficate contains a recital, as required by section ten of chapter forty-six, that the deceased served in the army, navy or marine corps of the United States in any war in which it has been engaged, such recital shall appear upon the permit. The board of health or its agent, upon receipt of such statement and certificate, shall forthwith counter- sign it and transmit it to the clerk of the town for registration. The person to whom the permit is so given and the physician certifying the cause of death shall thereafter furnish for registration any other necessary information which can be obtained as to the deceased, or as to the manner or cause of the death, which the clerk or registrar may require .- Chap. 114, Sec. 45, G. L., as amended.

No undertaker or other person shall bury a human body or the ashes thereof which have been brought into the commonwealth until he has received a permit so to do from the board of health or its agent appointed to issue such permits, or if there is no such board, from the clerk of the town where the body is to be buried or the funeral is to be held, or from a person appointed to have the care of the cemetery or burial ground in which the interment is made .- Chap. 114, Sec. 46, G. L., as amended.
