1. "Monoxide Poisoning" means that although the body was more or less burnt the cause of death is as stated.

2. Death from burns, contused wounds, &c. means that there is enough evidence of violence alone to cause death.

3. "Dioxide Poisoning" where there was no evidence of "Monoxide Poisoning," and not sufficient of violence alone to cause death, the death is returned as "Dioxide Poisoning"; this will include concussion, &c.
