1107 - Report of Referee.

§ 1107. Report of referee. The referee must deliver his report to the
petitioner, or file it with the clerk, within ten days after the case is
closed. He must state therein whether any person was or was not produced
before him as being the person whose death is in question. He must
append thereto, in the form of depositions, the proofs, if any,
respecting the identity of any person so produced with the person whose
death is in question or if no one is so produced, upon the question
whether the latter person is living. He must also state in his report
his conclusions upon the questions controverted before him.
