back next day, but the body was gone, and then I was
asked by Dr Pearse to explain. Of course, when he came
to me,
I said "the body is gone. It is buried" and Dr
Pearse asked me to explain. That is the only case I
have had.

Between the hours of 10 to 12, and when the doctor is
finished with the cases, he telephones to the Sanitary
Board all the cases of infectious diseases. Then he
sees to the coffining of the infected bodies, and he
sees them put aboard of the burial barge.
The foreman does?
2281
Yes, and whenever I can afford time, I go there myself.
When a man goes there to view a hody, can he get zo182
permission from the foreman ♬
No. It is done, but the foreman cannot give permission. You must get that from the doctor in charge of the
Mortuary.
-
Was it not done sometimes, that relatives got
permission of the foreman to view a body, ?
20283
Not so much from the foreman, but from the butchers of
the Mortuary.
20184
Have you ever heard of relatives paying money before
they could view a body ?
What do you call the "butchers" of the Mortuary 9 20 285**** The man who open up the bodies, and get them ready for
examination. That is what they are called.
