Prior to 1869 there were no crematories In
either Europe or America. but an agitation for
them was beginning following disclosures Of disease
and death in the vicinity of cemeteries where thou
sands had been buried and whose slow decay was
an ever-present danger to the living.
Following the crucifixion OF Cnrist the custom
of burning the dead on funeral pyres fell gradually
into disuse. although the custom had been general
and In places and at times imperative. Only Egypt
Judea and China had held to inhumation OF the
body, burying it in the earth, the tomb or the
sepulcher.
Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom
Of God; neither can corruption inherit incorrup-

brought about the first incineraton in the United

been denouncng the graveyard as menace to the
living and mistreatment Of the dead Cremation,
however, first arose out Of necessity. It was in
the Trojan war where Homer describes such q

only method Of dsinfecting the field Of battle and
removing the bodies from the -blood-soggy field
where they were being torn and eaten by the wild
