I have enquired into the case of a child attending
Monnow Road Board School who had been sufferineg
from some disease of the eyes, and found the child
had recovered and was attending the school again.
The teacher of the infant school did not know of
any other case.
March 25th, 1895.
In the week ending March 16th, 80 births and 44
deaths were registered in the parish. These numbers
indicate an annual birth rate of 49.1, and an annual
rate of mortality of 27.0 per thousaud of the
estimated population. The corresponding death rate
in London was 33.4. There were 9 deaths of
children under 1 year of age, and 15 of persons aged
60 years and upwards.
From the chief diseases of the zymotic class there
was only 1 death, which was from whooping cough.
In the week that ended on March 23rd, the
number of births registered was 54, and the number
of deaths was 36. The corresponding annual birth
rate was 33.1, and the death rate 22.1. The deaths
