The coroner shall cause the body of a deceased person which he is called to view to be delivered to his friends, if there are any, but if not he shall cause him to be decently buried, the expenses to be paid from any property found with the body, or, if there is none, from the county treasury, by certifying an account of the expenses which, being presented to the board of county commissioners, shall be allowed by them if deemed reasonable and paid as other claims on the county.
