Funeral Expenses
Funeral Expenses
From the book The Clergyman’s Hand-book of Law, about Funeral Expenses (1): Witnesses’ opinions as to the reasonable amount for burial or as to the cost of a funeral being reasonable, are not binding on a court or jury. The station of a man, the property that he leaves, the life that he has followed, all should be considered by the court. The whims and notions of societies and others are of minor consideration. Those who make funeral expenses that are not allowed by the court must pay them.409
