AS to the Interpretation of Law,

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: Will
you please answer the following question in
your next issue of the journal? A contro-
versy has arisen as to whose duty it is to fill
the physicians certificate in case of death.
Some of the physicians claim it is the under
takers duty, according to the law that took
effect Jan. 1st, 1892, and others that it is the
physicians duty. The lawyers are also di-
vided. To make it little palmer, one man
thinks the law requires the physician to fur
nish a certificate all complete so far as he is
able, all filled out down as far as the M. D.,
and duly signed, and then the undertaken
fills in the date and place of burial and signs
it. Another man says the undertaken should
get the record of death of the friends of the
deceased and give it to the physician, all ex-
cept the cause of death, which the physician
alone is supposed to know.
