Ihe Stsltn Hoard OF hGaltn wants Aegts-
lHtiOn on a Very Important Matter
tho Removal of Bodies.
The state Board of Health will present
to the General Assembly at It's present
session bill making State law regulating
Tho disntermeut and removal OF dead
bodies. Outside of the city OF Wilmington
there Is now no such law in the State and
bodies can be removed from one town to
another without consulting the State
Board Of Health. In the city there is an
ordinance relative TO this matter, and Sec
retary Frazer said this morning that the
idea Of the State Board is to have a similar
law that will apply all over the State.
such law exists in most osher States
andlis really necessary for the protection
of people from the spread of contagious
diseases. Where people die Of contagious
diseases the greatest care should be taken
in interriug the remains, and il the State
Board Of Health is given authority to tako
the matter in hand there will be q system
regulating Disbursements and removals.
