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 early enough for the purpose, the certificate of death made as above provided and in the possession of the undertaker desiring to make such 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- alx hours after such removal, nnless a permit in the usual form for the removal of such body has been sooner obtained hereunder.

Chap. 114, Sec. 46, G. L., (Tercentenary Edition)


RULES OF PRACTICE


The fulfillment of the purpose of these laws calls fer the observ- ance of the following rules of practice :


(1) Attending physicians will certify to such deaths only as those ef persons to whom they have given bedside care during a last ill- ness from dlsease 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 an- 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) Medieal 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 septlce- 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 to 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 fallure, asphyxia, asthenia, etc. As principal cause name the disease causing death. As related causes, name earlier morbid con- ditlons. If any, related to the principal cause and any important complloation of the prinelpal cause.


Statement of Occupation .- Precise statement of occupation is very Important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursults 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 occupatlen 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 wages, 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.
