coffin

In a statement, the Israeli PM's office said Israel had received - through the Red Cross - coffins containing the bodies of hostages which were now awaiting official identification.

The Red Cross retrieved the remains in coffins and handed them over to the Israeli military late on Tuesday night.

The Great Depression of 1929 was the final nail in the coffin for the design, with orders being cancelled by ship owners.

When the time comes for the bodies to leave the anatomy centre, the university places them into coffins for a funeral director to collect.

The coffin contained his lawyer's robe, a speech he made against capital punishment and several books, his wife told the TF1 television broadcaster.
