No undertaker or other person shall bury or otherwise dispose of a human hody in a town, or remove therefrom a human body which has not heen 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 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 receiv- ing tomb to another in the same cemetery, until he has received a pernilt from the board of health or its agent aforesaid or from the cierk of the town where the body Is buried.

If there is no attending physician, or if, for sufficient reasons, his certificate cannot be obtained early enough for the purpose, or is in- sufficient, a physician who is a meinber of the board of health, or em- ployed 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 shali inake such certificate. If such a permit for the removal of a human hody, 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 hody shall he 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 re- moval of such body has been sooner ohtained hereunder. If the death certificate contains a recital, as required by section ten of chapter forty-


mix, 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 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., (Tercentenary Edition).

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


RULES OF PRACTICE


The fulfillment of the purpose of these laws calls for the ohservance of the following rules of practice:


(1) Attending physicians will certify to such deaths only as those of persons to whom they have given hedside 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 hy 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) Medlcai Examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths supposahly 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 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 morhid conditions, if any, related to the principal cause and any important complication of the principai cause.


Statement of Occupation .- Precise statement of occupation la 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 iliness. If the deceased had retired from business. 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.
