The interment of a pauper will cost six florins, eight kruitzers. The expenses of the interments of the institution for paupers are settled by the Church and Cemetery Commission, with the officers of that institution. If the Interment Commissary be employed by the friends of the deceased, to announce the occurrence of the death, he is to receive three guilders per day. SECTION V.—_The Regulations with regard to the House for the reception of the Dead._ The following are the regulations regarding the use of the house for the reception and care of the dead, which are here made known for every one’s observance. (1.) The object of this institution is— _a._ To give perfect security against the danger of premature interment. _b._ To offer a respectable place for the reception of the dead, in order to remove the corpse from the confined dwellings of the survivors. (2.) The use of the reception-house is quite voluntary, yet, in case the physician may consider it necessary for the safety of the survivors that the dead be removed, a notification to this effect must be forwarded to the younger burgermeister to obtain the necessary order. (3.) Even, in case the house of reception is not used, the dead cannot be interred until after the lapse of three nights, without the proper certificate of the physician that the signs of decomposition have commenced. In order to prevent the indecency which has formerly occurred, of preparing too early the certificate of the death, the physician shall in future sign a preliminary announcement of the occurrence of death, for the sake of the previous arrangements necessary for an interment, but the certificate of death is only to be prepared when the corpse shows unequivocal signs of decomposition having commenced. For the dead which it is wished to place in the house of reception, the physician prepares a certificate of removal. This certificate of removal can only be given after the lapse of the different periods, of six hours; in sudden death, of twelve hours; and in other cases, twenty-four hours. In case of the thermometer being below 10 degrees of Reaumur, (30 Fahrenheit), removal can only take place when there are unequivocal signs of death, and under the certificate of death from the physician.
