DEATHS AND DEATH-RATES.
This year, the Registrar-General has introduced for the
first time the method of transferring the deaths of residents
occurring outside the district to this district, and in consequence,
the nett deaths belonging to the district, as shewn
on Table I. for this year, are not strictly comparable with the
