They were able to convert the _ proces-verbal _ into a mere certificate of death , by recognizing the body as that of the Demoiselle Ida Gruget , corset-maker , living rue de la Corderie-du-Temple , number 14 . The judiciary police of Paris arrived , and the mother , bearing her daughter 's last letter . Amid the mother 's moans , a doctor certified to death by asphyxia , through the injection of black blood into the pulmonary system , -- which settled the matter . The inquest over , and the certificates signed , by six o'clock the same evening authority was given to bury the grisette . The rector of the parish , however , refused to receive her into the church or to pray for her . Ida Gruget was therefore wrapped in a shroud by an old peasant-woman , put into a common pine-coffin , and carried to the village cemetery by four men , followed by a few inquisitive peasant-women , who talked about the death with wonder mingled with some pity . The widow Gruget was charitably taken in by an old lady who prevented her from following the sad procession of her daughter 's funeral .
