* Col. A. gives the number of the Inhabitants of each District who expired in 1863, i the Public Institutions of other Districts; these figures must be added to the Registered
Mortality. Col. B. gives the number of Inhabitants of other Localities, who died in the same year in the Public Institutions of the Districts named; these figures have to be subtracted
from the Registered Mortality. (See Appendix Table II.)
† The number 6 here subtracted consists of a balance of several errors, most of which have arisen by the re.entry of deaths upon which inquests where held after registration.
