THE MOMENT OF DEATH. 227 Eminent physicians entered into the discussion. The conclusion was reached that no one really dies at the moment which is ordinarily considered his last, but death comes some time later. Fr. Ferreres sets down this thesis : "Between the mo- ment of death, commonly so called, and the instant at which death really takes place, it is probable that there is always a period of latent life during which the sacra- ments may be administered. " Let us first consider the case of ...the new-born child. It is now the common opinion of theologians that the human fetus is, from its conception, endowed with a soul. God creates the soul and unites it to the body at the very moment of conception. From that very moment the fetus is capable of salvation and of baptism.
