First sentence: In view of the fact that the present paper will doubtless reach many readers who may not, in consequence of the limited edition, have seen the preliminary volume on mortuary customs, it seems expedient to reproduce in great part the prefatory remarks which served as in introduction to that work; for the reasons then urged, for the immediate study of this subject, still exist, and as time flies on become more and more important.
