hand, and claimants under will on
the other hand, for the possession of a
corpse, that man cannot by will dis
pose of that which, after his death,
will be his corpse. The custody of the
corpse and the right of burial belong
to the next of kin in preference to
the administrator. This view is based
On the fact that the general English
and American legal authorities estab-
lish the rule that, in the absence of
statutory provisions, there is no prop
erty in a dead body. If this ruling Is
correct, says the New York Medical
Journal, the sooner statutory provi-
sions are obtained enabling a man who
feels that great benefit to humanity
will accrue through increase of med
ical knowledge by the continuance
post mortem of an investigation into
his case, or that new light may be shed
upon anthropological, psychological or
other scientific problems, to author
lie by will such use of his corpse, the
better. We commend this subject to
the consideration of the Medico-Legal
