View source for Guild of Embalmers and Allied Trades

Presumably the Disc's trade organisation for embalmers, funeral directors, undertakers, gravediggers and all those unsung  performers of the seventh work of mercy. There is, or was, a [[Djelibeybi]]an branch, called the Natron Lodge: [[Dil]] the master embalmer is not only a member but holds the rank of Keeper of the Left-Hand Door. 

Whether Dil is still a member after transferring his trade skills to the stuffing of olives, and incidentally inventing the pimento-stuffed cocktail olive, is yet to be revealed.

In the [[Igor]] edition of ''Discworld Diary'', a letter from Guild President Oscar Venting to Lord Vetinari voices the Guild's concern about the increasing number of cadavers which are being turned over for their services with their salvageable parts already missing.  Laudable though Igors' life-saving efforts may be, it ''does'' make this Guild's duties rather difficult, particularly when the body to which they've been asked to attend is found sitting up alive, sparks of residual static still crackling in their hair.
