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 regis- tration 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 as required by section one, where same was con- tracted, 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 under- taker or other person shall exhume a human body and remove it from a town, from one cemetery to another, or from one grave or tomb other than the receiving tomb to another in the same cemetery, 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 certificate 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 obtained 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 certificate 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 countersign 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
Medical examiners shall make examination upon the view of the dead bodies of only such persons as are supposed to have died by violence. If a medical examiner has 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, Sec. 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; other- wise a description as full as may be, with the cause and manner of death. -General Laws, Chap. 38, Sec. 7.
... The medical examiner certifies the cause and manner of death to the best of his knowledge and belief.
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 physician is absent from home when the certificate of death is needed.
(3) Medical Examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths supposably due to injury. These include not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following abortion, but also deaths from disease resulting 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 example: "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 circumstances unknown."
If disease or injury was related to occupation, specify. 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: "Hemorr- hage spontaneous, of the brain (basal ganglia) (found dead in bed)." "Heart disease, presumably coronary sclerosis. (Sudden death.)"
DESCRIPTION (for unknown person)
NOTICE TO UNDERTAKERS: No embalming fluid, or any substitute therefor, shall be injected into the body of any person supposed to have met his death by violence, until a permit, signed by the Medical Examiner, has first been obtained .- General Laws, Chap. 38, Sec. 14.
