HC Deb 19 June 1877 vol 235 cc3-4
MR. OSBORNE MORGAN

gave Notice, that on Tuesday, the 17th July, in the event of the Burial Acts Consolidation Bill being withdrawn before that time, he should move the following Resolution:— That, in the opinion of this House, the time has arrived when the long-pending controversy as to interments in parish churchyards ought to be closed, by permitting such interments to take place without the burial service of the Church of England, and with such other Christian and orderly religious services as the friends or relatives of the deceased may think fit.
