1891 of 40,323, so that if this progressive
augmentation has been maintained since 1891,
a Day-census at June, 1897, would have shewn
a population of about 329,290.
The Day-census taken in May, 1891, proved
that 1,186,000 persons and 92,000 vehicles
entered and left the City on the day the
counting was made.
MORTALITY.
During 1897 1,046 deaths were registered,
including *608 persons dying in the City, but
not belonging thereto.
Deducting the latter we have to deal with
438 deaths, to which we must add 146 persons
who died at City Institutions in outside districts,
where, of course, they were registered. The
mortality therefore upon which our death
rate is calculated is 584.
The details of the deaths occurring in the
City will be found in Table Appendix A.,
*In St. Bartholomew's Hospital alone 606 deaths of non-residents
occurred.
