Description
AREND, Justice. This is an action sounding in tort for the wrongful burial of the remains of a woman who, the plaintiff claims, was his common law wife, and also sounding in contract for specific performance of a burial contract. We gather from the pleadings of the parties and other matters contained in the record that one Edith Edwards, also known as Edith Tatum, died at Anchorage, Alaska, on July 31, 1959. The plaintiff, Willie Edwards, thereupon entered into an oral agreement with the defendant, Richard Franke, doing business as Evergreen Memorial Chapel, that the latter should provide the funeral and burial of the deceased in consideration of the sum of $750, which sum was fully paid.
