Help finding a given passage in a Dicken's novel.

Unread post

Hello. I have just registered and I hope I have chosen the correct place to post my question. I was confused about where to start.

I love Charles Dicken's novels and have read most of them. I particularly love his humour and my question is to ask if anyone can recall a passage which I found so funny all be it of a dark humour, where Dickens describes a coffin being carried to a church down a hill in icy conditions. The carriers slip and fall and the coffin lands on the ground and slides down the hill towards the waiting funeral attendants.

I would like to be reminded which novel this was in please.
