UYBURIED LEG IS CAUSE OF Pro-
TEsT.-What disposition to make of an
amputated leg is matter which is giving
Joseph Wigglesworth, secretary of the
Board of Health, of Wilmington, DEL,
considerable trouble. Some time ago
Michael Brown, of Wilmington, was
injured by trolley car in Chester, and
it was necessary TO amputate ore OF his
legs. The leg was buried, and when the
fact became known to the Jewish friends
of the patient there, they raised the
point that it was contrary to the Jewish
ritual, which, they declared, provides
that no portion of the human body shall
be inferred until the flesh has decayed
from the bones, except in the event OF
death. A delegation of local Jews,
headed by Jacob Lesham, brother-in-
law of Brown, went to Chester and got
possession of the member. Leshani put
it in his kitchen, where he proceeded t.
DESTROY the flesh by means OF chloride o
lime. Neighbors complained to the
Board of Health, and health Officer
investigated the matter A delegation
of Jews. headed by a rabbi, appeared
before Secretary Wigglesworth yesterday
and asked that they be allowed to con
form to the Jewish ritual. The score
tary has not rendered decision yet.

was called to town and left her five
yearold daughter in charge of an oblig-

amuse her young guest by showing her
collection of prints, among which was
a copy of the familiar presentation of
the patron saint of music seated at the
organ.
