It is to be regretted that in the remaining 84 cases, the certificates of the cause of death contained no information as to
whether the patient had been Vaccinated or not. In some cases included in the above table the marks of Vaccination were
stated to be imperfect.
The appended Table exhibits the mortality from Small Pox in the several districts of Lambeth, in each year since 1860,
and the per centage, the total bears yearly to the total deaths, from all causes.
