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

For neglect to comply with any provision of this section, such physician or officer shall forfeit ten dollars. For the purposes of this aec- tion and of sections forty-five, forty-six and forty-seven of said chapter one bumlred and fourteen, the word "war" shall include the China relief ex- pedition and the Philippine insurrection, which shall, for said purposes. he deemed to have taken place hetwcen February fourteenth, eighteen hundred and ninety. eight and July fourth, nineteen hundred and two, and the Mexi- can border service of nineteen hundred and sixteen and nineteen hundred and seventeen. G. L. Chisp. 46. Sec. 10.


No undertaker or other person shall bury or otherwise dispose of a buman 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 ita 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 otber person ahall exhume a human body and remove it fromn a town. from one cemetery to another, or from one grave or tomb other thau the receiving tomb to another In the same cemetery, until he has received a permit from the board of health or its agent aforexaid 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 sucb board, agent or clerk, as the case may be, a satisfactory written statement containing the facta 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. o1 in lieu thereof a certificate as hereinafter provided. If there is no attending physician, or if, for sufficient reasons, his certificate carmot 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 aelectmen for the purpose, shall upon application make the certificate re- quired of the attending physician. If death is caused by violence. tbe medl- cal examiner shall make such certificate.

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 aud take charge of the same; . .. - General Laws, Chap. 38, Sec. 6.


RULES OF PRACTICE


The fulfillment of the purpose of these laws calls for the observance of the following rulea of practice :


(1) Attending phyalciana will certify to such deatha 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 phyalolans will certify to such deaths only as those of persons who, though disahled by recognized disease unrelated to any form of injury. have died without recent medical attendance or whose phyaf- cian is ahsent from home when the certificate of death is needed.


(8) Medloal Examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths sup- posably due to Injury. These include not only deaths caused directly or in- directly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agenta, and deaths following abortion, but also deaths from dlacasa resulting from injury or Infection related to occupation, the sudden deatha of persona not disabled by recognized dlacase, and those of persons found dead.


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


Statement of Occupation .- Precise statement of occupation ia very im- portant, 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 Illuese. If the deceased bad retired from businesa, report the usual occupation prior to retirement. Children not gainfully employed may be returned aa at school or at boine. For a woman whose only occupatiou waa that of home housework, write bousework. For a person engaged in domestic service for wages, however, designate the occupation by the appropriate terma, aa housekeeper-private family, cook-hotel, etc. For a person who had no occupation whatever write none.

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 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 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 issuc 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, from one cemetery to another, or from one grave or tomh 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 aforcsaid or from the clerk of the town where the body is buricd. No such permit shall be issued until there shall have been de- livered to such board, agent or clerk, as the case may be, a satisfac- tory 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 pur- pose, shall upon application make the certificate required of the at- tending physician. If death is caused by violence, the medical exam- iner shall make such certificate. If such a permit for the removal of a human body, not previously interred, from one town to another within the commonwealth cannot be obtained carly enough for the purpose, the certificate of death made as above provided and in the possession of the undertaker desiring to make such a removal shall constitute a permit for such removal ; provided, that such body shall be returned to the town from which it was removed within thirty- six hours after such removal, unless a permit in the usual form for the removal of such body has been sooner obtained hereunder. If the death certificate contains a recital, as required by scction ten of chapter forty-slx, that the deceased served in the army, navy or marine eorps of the United States in any war in which it has been engaged, such recital shall appear upon the permit. The board of healtlı, or its agent, upon receipt of such statement and certificate, shall forthwith countersign it and transmit it to the elerk of the town for registration. The person to whom the permit is so ziven and the physician certifying the cause of death shall thereafter fur- nish for registration any other necessary information which can be
