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., (Tercentenary Edition)


RULES OF PRACTICE


The fulfillment of the purpose of these laws calls for the observ- ance 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 ill- ness from discase 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 un- related 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 snpposably due to injury. These include not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (including resulting septice- mia), 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 lo occupa- tion, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.


Statement of Cause of Death. Cause of death means the disease, or complication which causes death, not the mode of dying, e. g .. heart failure, asphyxia, asthenia, etc. As principal cause name the disease causing death. As related causes, name earlier morbid con- ditions, if any, related to the principal cause and any important complication of the principal cause.


Statement of Occupation .- Precise statement of occupation is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known. Make some entry in this section for every person aged 10 years or over. If the occupation had been given up or changed on account of the disease causing death, report the usual occupation prior to illness. If the deceased had retired from busi- ness, report the usual occupation prior to retirement. Children not gainfully employed may be returned as at school or at home. For a woman whose only occupation was that of home housework, write housework. For a person engaged in domestic service for wagcs, however, designate the occupation by the appropriate terms, as housekeeper-private family, cook-hotel, etc. For a person who had no occupation whatever write none.
