Dead Man in Four Coffins in Kobe to New York

Extraordinary precautions by Japanese health authorities accompanied the removal to New York City of George H. Ferguson, an American engineer who died in Kobe. The body, weighting 140 pounds in life, arrived weighing about 2400 pounds including enclosures. A heavy truck and derrick team moved the casket from the express company, then embalmed in Kobe. The corpse was placed in a vine lined casket inside an oak coffin, itself in a one inch Norwegian pine box lined with zinc. Charcoal barrels and four barrels of sawdust surrounded the casket, with eight heavy bands securing the outer enclosure.
