Notes.—This table is arranged to show both the gross births and deaths in the
district, and the births and deaths properly belonging to it with the corresponding rates.
The rates in column 7 are calculated per 1,000 of the gross population. In this district,
in which large Public Institutions for the sick and infirm seriously affect the statistics, the
rates in columns 5 and 13 are calculated on a nett population, obtained by deducting
from the gross population the average number of inmates not belonging to the district,
in such institutions. The rate in column 11 is calculated on the nett births.
*In column 6 are included the whole of the deaths registered during the year as
having actually occurred within the district, but excluding the deaths of soldiers and
sailors that have occurred in our hospital, in the two camps, or of residents, due to the war.
