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 hoard, from the clerk of the town where the hody is to he huried or the funeral is to he 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 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 ag those of persons who, though disahled by recognized disease unrelated to any form of injury, have died without recent medical attendance or whose physician is ahsent 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, hut also deaths from disease resulting from injury or infection related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled hy 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 deatlı. As related causes, name earlier morhid conditions, 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 business, report the usual occupation prior to retirement. Children not gainfully employed may he 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 wages, however, designate the occupation hy the appropriate terms, as housekeeper-private family, cook-hotel, etc. For a person who had no occupation whatever write none.

Gen. Laws, Chap. 46, Sec. 9.


A physician or offleer furnishing a certificate of death as required by the preceding section or by section forty-five of chapter one hundred and four- teen, shall, if the deceased, to the best of his knowledge and belief, served in the army, navy or marine corps of the United States in any war in which it has been engaged, insert in the certificate a recital to that effect, speei- fying the war, and shall also eertify in such certificate both the primary and the secondary or immediate cause of death as nearly as he can state the same. For negleet to comply with any provision of this section, sueh physician or officer shall forfeit ten dollars. For the purposes of this sec- tion and of scetions forty-five. forty-six and forty-seven of said chapter one hundred and fourteen, the word "war" shall inelude the China relief ex- pedition and the Philippine insurrection, which shall, for said purposes, be deemed to have taken place between February fourteenth, eighteen hundred and ninety-eight and July fourth, nineteen hundreil and two, and the Mexi- can border service of nineteen hundred and sixteen and nineteen hundred and seventeen. G. L. Chap. 46, Sec. 10.

L., (Tercentenary Edition).
