Hello John,

Not so much religion or belief, I would say that more than likely it was far
easier to remove the coffin through the window because most properties used
to have sash windows which would be far easier to take the coffin out than
attempt to take it out of the front parlour and carry it through a narrow
hallway.
Regards Barbara
